Disclaimer: yada yada yada nufin is mine.

Hermione walked on to the steaming Hogwarts express dragging her trunk and Crookshanks behind her. She had finally located the compartment containing her friends and walked in when she was met by glares and stares.

"HOW COULD YOU HERMIONE A THUNDERCLAP YOUR MEANT TO BE ON OUR SIDE!" Ginny Weasley yelled with crossed arms and tapping her foot impersonating her mother Molly Weasley.

"Yeh 'mione your a Gryffindor not a Slytherin." Harry whispered looking defeated.

"I'm a Gryffindor but my dads a Slytherin it's not my fault if he wants to give him a new broom."

"Whatever Hermione your starting to like the slimy git after all your gonna be one of them soon your gonna be a MALFOY Hermione your gonna be one of them. You could of done something you could of declined his proposal but no you have to agree with the wedding to make you richer than you already are admit it Hermione your a TRAITOR!" Ron yelled gaining attention from other houses. He looked at Hermione with pure hatred and disgust and before he knewe it she slapped him leaving a pink handprint stinging onn his cheeks.

"If there was any traitor's here they would be all of you because you betrayed my trust, You guys promised that you will support me no matter who my fiance was obviously you can't keep your word. Obviously you dont know what the defenition of promise means" Hermione replied with a defeated tone as she stepped out of the compartment towards the heads.

"Hiya Drake how's it living with the Grangers?" Blaise asked as he sat down next to Blaise and put his feet up.

"El horrible." Draco replied massaging his temples.

"Can't be that bad Drake tell us bout it." Pansy said sitting on Blaise's lap.

"Seriously I've never met anyone so annoying she is so. Okay she whinges about her weight even though shes already got a hot bod, She whines about how her books are getting olda and yellow I swear that woman is so annoying I'd rather live with Peeves." Draco replied with a huff.

"Why in Merlin's name are you putting up with it then?" Blaise asked putting his arms around Pansy's waist. "but then again I put up with Pansy and shes more annoying then that!"

"I am not!" Pansy bit back whacking Blaise on the sid of his head.

"Because she'll be a really good asset to the Malfoy family. One of the golden trio, Pureblood, Brightest and smartest witch of her age, and an heir of a famous wizard despite the fact that he's like Robin Hood giving to the poor and taking from the rich and was described as a dark wizard he's still famous.

"Drake who the hell is Robin hood?" Goyle asked suddenly being active in the conversation.

"Some dude that stole from the rich and gave to the poor."

"So your putting up with the annoying Gryffindor because she's a good asset to your name?" Blaise asked leaning back.

"Exactly. Besides we're at Hogwarts now the only place where I have to act all lovey dovey to the annoying lady is when Snape and Dumbledork is around so I'm free for a year at least. Anyways I need to go meet the Gryffindork at the heads compartment see you guys around and with that he was off.


"Ahh good day Mr Malfoy." Came the tight voice of Proffessor Minerva McGonagall.

"So all you do is pretty Basic you do your rounds on the weekends to give the prefects a break, you organise ocassions, you organise Hogsmeade trips an so forth. As you are already aware of you share a common room on the 5th floor so it's close to all facilities. Come meet me after the feast so I can leed you to your Common room." and soon McGonagall was out the door followed by Draco and Hermione.

Hermione didn't want to go back to her friends compartment so she decided to patrol the train instead buying a pumpkin pasty a couldren cake while she was at it. Soon she passed Padma, Parvati, Cho, Seamus and Dean, Michael who were all in one compartment and decided to join them.

"Hi guys where's Lavender?" Hermione asked hoping that she wasn't sharing the compartment.

"With Ron she never has time to be with us anymore why aren't you with them?" Dean asked the head girl.

"Had bit of a row besides I think Lavender's taken my place." she said timidly.

"Alright well then you can take her place care for a licorice wand?" Seamus replied leanding back.

"Uh no thanks."

"Anyways why were you with Malfoy before and if i heard correctly he called you babe." Parvati said with a giggle.

"Umm long story but to make a long story short I'm engaged to him." she replied staring at the shocked face of her classmates.

"Serious Hermione? God you've hit jackpot Draco Lucius Malfoy Pureblood Prince, Slytherin sex God is gonna marry you god your so lucky he's such a hottie." Padma sighed entering a dreamy stage.

"Oi stop fantasizing about Malfoy." Dean said angrily as he watched his girlfriend daydream about another guy.

"How did you do it Hermione?" Cho asked leaning back into Michael's arms.

"Ummm I didn't do anything he just sort of was engaged to me just like that."

"Yeh and pigs can fly Hermione Draco Malfoy we're talking about you just can't all of a sudden be engaged to him like that you must of done something." Parvati said with another giggle.

"I've been betrothed to him since birth I couldn't of done anything and please no questions asked." and that was that.


The sorting finished and everyone was enjoying the marvelous feast. Hermione deciding to temprarily refuge with Parvati, Dean, and Seamus a little bit further down the table was feeling a bit down but lighter no matter. She felt like she finally escaped the safety net of her friends.

After the feast Draco and Hermione followe Proffessor McGonnagal to the fifth floor to locate their common room. The portrait was a picture of Satine and Christian from Moulin Rouge. Mcgonagall explained that they had to show they're badge before reciting the password so that Jack and Rose can determine visitors from the heads. Mcgonagall left them to explore the common room.

They entered before saying the password ' Sparkling diamond' (a/n: Is that what satine is called?). Hermione stred in awe at the white and black room there were marble floors, black leather sofas a marble fireplace, a white grand piano and a black desk next to a black book shelf filled with books. There was a window that viewed the hogwarts grounds. To their left was a swinging door that led to the kitchen that only held the essentials fridge, sink, microwave, oven, toaster sink cupbourd cutlery and a bench with 3 bar stools. There was a grand marble starcase with a mahogany railing that went around. On the landing was 3 mahogany doors with gold plaques one saying Hermione Jean Granger which was on the left, one saying Bath room which was in the middles and one saying Draco Lucius Malfoy which was on the right. All of which were written in fancy curly writing.

Hermione entered her bedroom and was amazed it had pink walls with a crimson feature wall a king sized bed with silk burgandy sheets a mahogany desk , 2 mahogany bedside tables with a dimmed lamp, a mahogany vanity and her trunk sat at the end of her bed with crookshanks purring on top. there was another Mahogany door that led to the bathroom that was decorated in silver and gold. It had a wood jacuzzi that was as big as a swimming pool a Marble shower that could fit 8 people, and a marble sink with a gold swans head with it's mouth open to let out water and 2 taps. There was another door that lead to Draco's room.

Draco had the same room as Hermione only a mirror image so everything was opposite. He had emerald walls and a black feature wall he had orchids around the rooms and of course his decor was green.


After Hermione finished exploring she went back down to the common room and sat next to Draco who was doing a wizarding crossward. Hermione rested her head on his shoulder before Draco stood up pacing.

"What wizarding band sings 'Crazy Elf'?"

"Umm Weird sisters?" Hermione replied confused."Ummm Draco I've got a couple DVD's umm McGonagall said that theres a remote here somewhere that magically conjures a screen we can watch them if you want."

"No it's okay." Draco replied without looking at her.

"I also have a couple books if you want to read" Hermione said getting up.

"No i'm fine-"

"How about we go see whats in the kitchen-"

"Granger shut up! Gees I've never met anyonemore annoying than you. God you talk to much, you whine too much seriously. Listen Granger there's no prying eyes here so you can just drop the act and leave me alone! When there's no one around we act how we used to not like some lovey dovey couple got it? In other ways stay out of my way and I'll stay out of yours and we can drop the blasted act!" Draco yelled sitting back down as Hermione stared at him as her vision blured and turned glassy from her unshed tears.

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked sincerely confused.

"Seriously Granger and people call you the brightest witch oh her age when your as thick as two planks of wood. I mean what I just said Granger now there's no parents we can drop the act. Stay out of my way and I'll stay out of yours. I'm gonna be tied down with you for the rest of my life the least I can have is to enjoy my freedom and bachelor days for at least a year. Where I'm free from you." Then smack Hermione slapped Draco square on the face her tears falling freely now as she ran up the stairs and slamming the door shut. Letting her sobs and tears escape her as she beat herself for being so stupid for believing Draco Malfoy truely changed.
