Summary: When Draco Malfoy is overlooked for the Head Boy position, he hatches The Plan. Now Hermione is becoming embroiled in an adventure of her own, with her worst enemy tagging along for the ride.

If ever there was a single most-qualified person for the position of Head Girl at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it was Hermione Granger.
The phrase "the Brain of Gryffindor" had been coined with grudging respect to the girl who managed to maintain perfect grades (except in Divination and Flying… but no one could fault her for that) and a relatively pristine record while simultaneously using her extreme cleverness and intellect to keep The Boy Who Lived alive- for six consistent years.
She was a favorite among most of her teachers, with the obvious exceptions of the biased Professors Snape and Trelawney. She was beloved within her House, even if she wasn't completely understood by her dorm-mates. She was even beloved by the rest of the school- with the exception of Slytherin House, who liked only themselves- if only because she was one of Harry Potter's best friend.
So it came as no surprise when Headmaster Dumbledore introduced Miss Hermione Granger as the newest Head Girl.
No, the surprise came when Dumbledore went on to announce the Head Boy- he wasn't Draco Malfoy, the Slytherin everyone, even Hermione, had assumed would take the role. Apparently the Ravenclaw known as Terry Boot would be Hermione's new partner in school relations, a pleasant surprise for three out of the four Houses.
But Slytherin House was quite put out. One member was feeling particularly vengeful.
And thus, The Plan was born.
