Chapter Two- The Beginning
It was a bright morning as Hermione lifted herself from her comfortable bed. As she left her dormitory to go to the library, she accidently bumped into a boy. "Sorry, It was a..." Hermione started saying but stopped.
"Do you have any manners, Malfoy!" She yelled.
"This is absurd, to partner with a mudblood and to be in this stupid muggle treasure hunt!" Malfoy complained.
"And do you think I like it a single bit?!?" Hermione said sharply. Hermione was furious from yesterday's shocking news. There was no way she would work with Malfoy, nope, never!
Malfoy growled and then left in a hurry.
'What's up with him?' Hermione contemplated. Malfoy, the stubborn and most annoying boy (in Hermione's opinion) would never stop hassling them.
Suddenly, Hermione remembered something. The hunt would be tomorrow! "How time flies..." Hermione annoyingly said, she could not imaging her co-operating with Malfoy at all.
---------------------------------------
The day finally came- the day of the treasure hunt. Hermione met with Malfoy in front of the Gryffindor's dormitory that morning.
"Hurry up, mudblood." Malfoy demanded.
"There! I'm here, what's so much of a hurry?" Questioned Hermione.
"Let's go." He ignored her previous questions, and left to the hall.
As they were inspected to make sure they did not have their wands, they received a survival pack. Then, they entered a corridor where spells were casted onto them before they were to proceed into the hunt.
"Well, mudblood, a perfect choice of extra items- string and a needle." Malfoy said sarcastically.
"Stop it, a string and needle is better than nothing." Hermione pointed out.
As they were walking on a path, Malfoy stopped. "What is it?" Hermione gave a concerned look.
"Let's rest and organise something." Malfoy insisted.
"Alright then."
"So? What are you waiting for? Get the tent out!" Commanded Malfoy.
"Oh..." Hermione reached into her bag to reveal a package used to build a tent. "There" Hermione said proudly.
"There, set it up." Draco said.
Hermione opened the package and began reading the instructions.
"Just get it done for!" Malfoy said calmly.
"Okok...' So Hermione placed the materials neatly on the pathway and looked up at Draco.
"What?"
"Aren't you helping?" She asked blankly.
"Is there a reason why I should?" Said Malfoy smartly.
"Plenty of reasons." Hermione defended herself.
"Just get it done with!"
Hermione glared at Malfoy and began setting up the tent. "That's better." Draco Malfoy sat on a rock nearby and watched her. 'Why exactly am I doing this?!?' Hermione thought to herself. Then, she stopped. 'Why AM I doing this?' She hesitated again.
"What's wrong? Too hard for a mudblood?" Malfoy smirked.
"Oh sure, as if. Though, don't worry I won't let you do it since it IS too hard for a Malfoy to do... Anyway, you would give up after less than a minute!" Hermione said coolly.
"I won't fall for that one." Malfoy said in his calm voice.
"Oh well then, we will might as well sleep outside, since no-one wants to set it up!" Hermione said sharply.
So, she walked towards the bag which laid on the ground. She picked it up and took out everything inside it.
"What are you doing!" Said Malfoy.
"We need to organise this properly!" She spoke sternly.
"Let's do it tomorrow." Malfoy said lazily as he yawned.
"Fine with me. But take this." Hermione threw a digital watch to Malfoy. It was light blue and navy in colour.
"Sweet dreams." Hermione said ironically.
Night had not come yet, but they were exhausted indeed. The source of it was by the spell in which was casted onto them before the hunt. That time, Hermione could not sleep. She lifted her body from the rocky surface. 'I wish I was at home.' She contemplated. So she took a walk into a clearing near their location. She examined the trees, trying to prevent being bored.
Suddenly she heard a sound from behind the bushes. It shocked her, there shouldn't have been anyone else in here. She stared curiously as where the noises came from.
Cautiously, she crept into the area, hiding behind the shrubs. Her face looked shocked and surprised as there, where they had been sleeping was a boy with short neat blonde hair and grey eyes. Malfoy.
He carefully read the instructions as he held a hammer in one hand. Hermione stepped out of the bushes. She bent down trying to help.
Malfoy gazed at her. Now, his eyes faced hers. They froze...
Something came into Hermione as she shook her head in confusion. She continued to set up the tent.
'What I was thinking? There is no way...Not Malfoy...Never.'

And so, this is the beginning. The beginning of the hunt and also, the beginning to Malfoy and Hermione.
