Hey guys...so I'm updating now! It's been less than a day since my last update, but a lot of you want me to update faster so here it is...

Chapter Nine

Hermione's Point of View

The steam puffed through the station as wizards and witches piled in. The Hogwarts Express was being filled with Hogwarts attendants.

"Ron," I nudged his shoulder. "We have to go to the Prefect cabin."

"Oh yeah," He replied dully.

"We'll see you at dinner." I told Harry and Ginny as she hugged them and then pulled Ron with her to the train.

Harry, Ron, Ginny, and I had already said their goodbyes to the Weasleys earlier this morning.

Ginny had been completely out of her mind.

...FLASHBACK...

"'Mione," Ginny shook me, trying to wake me up. "It's time to go to the platform."

"Ughhhh," I groaned, but got up anyway. Ginny was a persistent (some say stubborn) person when she wanted you to do things. If I didn't get up...well she'd irritate the shit out of me until I actually did.

Ginny grinned at me before hugging me tightly. That was weird...

Ginny was never a random hugger.

"What was that for?" I asked suspicisouly."What do you want?"

She just sighed, "When all those guys want you at school, you're going to forget about us. All them guys macking on you is just going to be so much!"

That's when I had to burst out laughing. "That is never going to happen, Gin."

"Merlin, yes it will! Hermione you looking bloody sexy in your new clothes! I'm telling you! Every guy who knows beauty is going to be macking on you left and right! You'll have girls P. and guys drooling!"

"Now you're stretching!" I rolled my eyes. "That is never ever happening!"

"You wait and see, 'Mione. You wait and see." Ginny replied mysteriously before waving her hands in front of her face in a "you can't see me" fashion.

"Sure, Gin. Thanks for that odd rendezvous!"

...END FLASHBACK...

"'Mione...'Mione...Hermione!" Ron was shaking me. "Earth to Hermione!"

"Calm down, Ronald. Jeez, I'm fine. Everyone deserves to space out every now and again." I replied sarcastically.

"Well someone needs an attitude adjustment!" He muttered under his breathe, probably not realizing that I had actually heard him. I let that one go and turned to lean against the wall. I opened my journal and got my Insta-Ink Quill out of my pouch.

Just then a cool burst off air went through the cabin as Draco Malfoy walked in. His eyes took in the inhabitants and rested on me for longer than necessary. His eyes swept over me. They stayed a tad bit too long on my chest, but I was not complaining. Wait! Did I just say that? Sadly, I did...and I was not taking it back.

He took a seat across the aisle from Ron and I. That was odd, but good thing Ron wasn't paying attention to anything except his Quidditch book. Yes, Ron was reading, but he only reads things that do with Quidditch. Typical guy.

Hey hottie!

I looked up to see if anyone had seen me. Everyone was busy and the train leaped into speed as we were on our way to Hogwarts. The place I hadn't been to for so long now. Well, I had been there for the battle, but that wasn't a good memory.

My gaze circled around the cabin. The Ravenclaw prefects were huddled in the corner. The Hufflepuffs were reading...no shocker there. And Malfoy was staring at me. Whoa...MALFOY was staring at ME!

I looked away from him with a blush creeping into my cheeks when I realized that Mystery Man had replied.

How are you, love?

My face burst into a smile as I read the line. I loved when he called me "love".

I am amazing! How are you, hot stuff/?

I'm fairly good, love. Oh and I love your nickname for me! ...I really like your nickname for me...

Well I like it very much when you call me Love.

Hmmm... you do? How I wish I could call you Love in person.

I blushed again and looked up again to make sure that nobody was watching me. But one person was.

Malfoy was looking at...No, more like searching. He was searching my face for something. It looked like he was trying to figure something out about me, but he couldn't. Our eyes met and I felt something inside my head.

Hey...I wanted to break it off there! I'll be writing the next chapter tonight! I'm pretty sure that you guys can figure out what was in her head right? Well, I hope you can anyway. Well...I'll update tonight...BYE!
