will work. Thanks again and keep reviewing!

Harry Potter Fan Fiction
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters and related subjects belong to the ingenious J.K. Rowling, to whom all Harry Potter fans should bow down before. And hence I do not take any credit for anything I write because it wouldn't matter any way because she writes a bazillion times better. So if you are smart you won't sue me because that would be STUPID! ( Hehehehehehe
Chapter 1
Confrontation As Hermione ran down the street, she turned the corner by Florish&Blotts, then slowed to a jog and ran into none other than Draco Malfoy. "Well look here if it isn't poor pathetic, muddblo-" he stopped in mid- sentence as she raised her head to reveal her face streaming with tears. " Wha- whats wrong Gra-Hermione?" he stammered losing his smirk and asking it almost sympathetically.
"um.it's nothing" she said shakily, "it's nothing " she repeated almost to herself as she tried to push past him.
"Whoa! Whoa! Hold on a second," Draco said as he stopped her," I'm not mean all the time!" he added.
Hermione with tears still streaming down her face said " It's just...Oh god!" Her voice broke. Malfoy reached for her and pulled her awkwardly into a hug "it's ok" her said soothingly. And just as this happened Harry and Ron came zooming around the corner, and Harry exploded into a very fast explanation.
"I'm really sorry Hermione; I never meant to say those things about Cho. It's just I still really love you and-"
"Wait" Said Ron abruptly holding his hand out to Harry's chest.
"MALFOY?!" Harry and Ron almost screamed in disbelief .
As Draco and Hermione parted he looked up and said to Harry," So fancy Cho do you now? Well looks like your girlfriend, ex-girlfriend," he corrected himself "overheard you. Even I didn't think you were that dumb"
"Eat dung Malfoy!" Harry said, knowing in his gut that Malfoy was right in the long run. As he stepped toward Hermione, attempting to comfort her, she stepped back and Malfoy moved in front of her.
"I'm pretty sure if she wanted to talk to you she would have come looking for you." Said Draco coldly.
"Well maybe, but did she come looking for you?" retorted Harry.
And as smartly and reproachfully as he could, Malfoy replied with "No, but do you see her leaving?" That seemed to end their argument; Harry and Ron turned on their heels and walked out of sight.
"Thanks Draco, you really didn't have to do that for me." said Hermione not able to look him in the eye.
"Well it's o.k. but don't mention this to anyone at Hogwarts." He said after a minutes contemplating in wich he took the time to survey the wonderfully changed Hermione. And with that he turned the corner and left Hermione there absolutely and completely confused.
Hermione looked at the clock on the dash board and said to her father franticly " Dad, the train leaves in ten minutes!"
"I'm going, I'm going." He replied.
After a couple more minutes of nerve racking car ride they finally pulled up to the train station, were Hermione bolted out of the car with her suitcase, and cat cage, hurriedly kissed her father and dashed for the barrier. Then it hit her, "where am I going to sit? Oh God!" she thought. As she climbed on the train she tried to find a compartment that was empty, and finally succeeded when she reached the end of the train. After she had put her bags and cages into their proper places she took out her robes and laid them on her seat so she could change into them later on. About five minutes after this she heard running footsteps outside of her compartment door, and suddenly none other that Draco Malfoy was standing in front of her.
"Hermione! Help me please! Crabbe, Goyle they want money I owe them, hide me please!" he panted desperately.
Without thinking twice Hermione quickly said," Here..ummm... under my seat." As he dashed underneath her seat, she laid out her robes over the seat so that you couldn't see underneath it and then sat on them so it didn't look suspicious and said," now shoosh I hear them coming." And just as she finished he sentence Crabbe and Goyle bustled through the door and said,
"Where is he?"
"Who?" said Hermione, screwing up her face to look confused.
"Malfoy, we now you have him" said Goyle.
"Um actually I don't, and what makes you think that?" asked Hermione
"Because you're the only thing he has been talking about since he came back from Hogsmead."
"Oh that Granger is looking good this year, she is soooo hot!" said Crabbe, trying to imitate Malfoy's voice but failing with monumental altitude.
"O.k. um whatever he's not here so ah, bye now!" and with that she shooed them out the door. When she was sure they had gone, she said "Alright they're gone." When he had emerged he looked Hermione up and down, taking the time to realize just how much she really did change. Not just body wise either, she was all in black with chains and a spiked collar. "So, have I been on your mind lately?" She asked sarcastically.
"Um..sort of." He said truthfully but awkwardly too. "I was thinking, Hermione, you don't seem half bad this year, maybe sometime we could get together and go to the three broomsticks for some butterbeer sometime?"
Hermione, clearly amused asked "are you asking me out..on a date?"
"Yes" he simply replied, looking her strait in the eye.
"Well o.k. I guess, but if we ever become more than....what are we friends now? Well anymore than we are now, we won't hide it. Deal?'
Malfoy shot back, now just as amusedly" Are you saying we might have a...thing after our 'date'?" Then quickly added," and yeah we are friends." He turned around to leave and added," Next Hogsmead visit, meet me at Zonko's, noon."
"Ok," she said "and yeah, maybe we will have a thing." And then she sat down. About half an hour later just as Hermione had feared Harry and Ron came bustling through the door. Harry looked at Ron and he pretended to have to talk to the train's captain.
"Hi," said Harry, "can I sit here?"
"Whatever" said Hermione stiffly, determined to keep her eyes looking out the window.
"I was wondering if we could talk?" said Harry, taking a seat across from Hermione.
"Hmm...'bout what?" she asked with the faintest hint of sarcasm. "Well you know.us" he said
"What do you mean us?" said Hermione, finally looking at Harry with a death glare, "There's you, there's me, but there IS no us"
Harry, looking shocked said, "Hermione we could start all over couldn't we? How about next Hogsmead visit?"
"Sorry, no can do, I already have a date."
Although that was not the reaction Harry was looking for he said as unquestioningly as he could, "oh, with who?"
"That's none of your business, now run along you don't want to miss Cho. All the sixth year boys must be lining up already, lets just hope she doesn't start wailing and crying cause you know I hear that's not a very big turn on for guys" She said in a matter-of-fact voice.
Harry, trying to control his anger said, "oh, well, see you around." And with that he left.

"YOU WHAT?" shrieked Ginny, " a DATE with MALFOY?" she asked with a smirk on her face.
"Yes," said Hermione thoughtfully, "Oh I do wonder sometimes about the odd predicaments I find myself in"
"Wow, well I will see you in the morning. Good night." And with that she left muttering to herself something about, "Hottest guy in school" and "I cannot believe it!"
"Well you can always count on Ginny to tell you the facts" Said Hermione to herself, then went into a peace full sleep.
