Draco and Ron were quite reluctantly allowed to leave the hospital wing by Madam Pomfrey the next morning. When they entered the great hall, they received quite a shock. The hall was decorated with the flags of Hogwarts and Durmstrang. Four students stood at a corner whispering among themselves. Dumbledore cleared his throat and the hall fell silent. Ron and Draco hurried to their seats.
"What's happening?" asked Ron curiously.
"Don't know, probably a student exchange between Durmstrang and Hogwarts," whispered Hermione.
"Everybody must be wondering why the hall is decorated with the flags of Durmstrang and Hogwarts." said Dumbledore cheerfully before pausing. "We have decided on a student exchange between the two schools. So these four students," Dumbledore stopped to gesture to the four foreign students. "Are here to study at our school. All of them has already been sorted and Benjamin Malfoy, Joanne Malfoy, Jake Marshall & Alyssa White will join Slytherin."
"What!" hissed Ron angrily. "Four more slimy gits added!"
"Durmstrang, what do you expect?" mumbled Harry.
They ate breakfast in a hurry and rushed off to the dungeons for double potions with the Slytherins. They chose a seat at the far end of the room and took out their books. Luckily, Snape didn't enter till a whole minute later.
"Everyone out of their seats now!" barked Snape. "New seating arrangements for the rest of the year!"
Everyone groaned and scrambled to the back of the class. The trio secretly hoped that they would get the row of seats at the back together. Snape smirked and muttered a spell with his wand pointed out at the tables. Everyone's names were written in mid air above their new seats. Harry's new partner was Millicent Bulstrode and Ron was stuck with Pansy Parkinson. As usual, Snape's severe dislike for Hermione was very obvious. He placed her at the middle of the row of seats at the back and placed Draco Malfoy on her right and Benjamin Malfoy on her left.
"I'll rather you help the new student with his potion than Longbottom," sneered Snape.
The Slytherins snickered and that only made Snape's smirk wider. He started reading out the ingredients of the hair colouring potion they were going to make (very quickly). Hermione almost cried when she couldn't catch all the ingredients of the potion she never came across before.
"Draco, may I borrow your notes to copy?" asked Hermione sweetly.
Draco smirked and stuck his tongue out at her (Aww!!!).
"No!" he said cutely.
Hermione rolled her eyes and took out the ingredients she managed to copy down from her bag.
"You can borrow mine," Benjamin offered.
"Thank you!" Hermione said gratefully and placed his notebook in front of her.
Draco glared at his cousin, "He's never so nice before" he thought. "Something must be up his stupid brain." Benjamin smiled innocently back at Draco and started smashing up his beetle eyes to fine powder. Hermione thanked Benjamin again and returned him his notes. She turned to Draco and stuck her tongue out at him before preparing her ingredients.
Draco grinned stupidly as he thought about the cute face Hermione made at him. He practically melted to the floor just thinking about it. He was so caught up thinking about Hermione that he accidentally spilled the completed potion on Hermione. Hermione shrieked and took out her pocket mirror. Draco stared in horror as he saw her hair turning from brown to purple. Hot tears streamed down Hermione's face as she ran out of the classroom.
"Hermione!" Draco shouted. He slapped himself mentally for his carelessness and stared at her retreating back.
"Professor. May I look for her?" asked Benjamin politely, much to everyone's surprise.
Snape gave a brief nod to him and he rushed out of the classroom.
Harry and Ron were still recovering from their serious shock when they saw Draco and Hermione making faces at each other and almost fell off their chairs hearing the two Malfoys being so nice to her.
"I can't believe it! The Malfoys are being so civil to `Mione!" said Harry,
"Neither can I, I'm going to demand an explanation from her later." Said Ron lividly.
They turned around to glare at Draco and Snape deducted 10 points from Gryffindor for "sending unnecessary signs".
Please review!
