Apologies: this chapter is VERY boring, skip it if you wish to, too long winded too. Sorry! The next one will be funny I promise!

"Oh my god....." Hermione spoke. She was still in a shock from what happened.

"Damn, now look what've you done mudblood!" spat Draco. He was saying this so loud that heads turn to look at him(her).

"Look, I need the antidote NOW and I mean it!" demanded Draco. Hermione's still in a daze but Draco caught hold of her and shook her quite hard in order to bring her back.

"Hey Granger, there's no time to be shock right now!" yelled Draco as he continues to shake her. Finally Hermione got out of the daze. "Oh.... yea, yea, we have to get the antidote," replied Hermione breathlessly. "Ok so now the antidote's with Professor Snape and..." she was interrupted when they both heard a voice saying, "you two please hurry, now go on!" It turned out to be Professor Mc Gonagall. She stood there and looked at them for a moment before heading towards class. Hermione was still in a bit of shock and Draco pulled her near him and whispered in her left ear, "meet you in the library after class," and with that, he left. "Um ok," she replied, still half shock.

After taking a few steps forward, he suddenly turn back to Hermione. "Hey, but first, you have to tell me how to act with Potty and Weasel around."

Hearing that, she shot him a glare of annoyance. "Ok ok, so er, Harry and Ron, right?" Hermione nodded.

"I guess the only way is to call them by their names and act polite," finishes Hermione briefly.

"WHAT?" he yelled so loud that everyone near turned to look. But of course, he didn't bother. He was now in the mudblood's body, so even if he did something obnoxious, it won't cost him anything.

"You want me to treat them nice Granger?" he asked, twitching an eyebrow.

Hermione nodded silently. "If you wish to avoid anyone from discovering this, you better."

"No."

"What did you just said?" "I will not do as what you say? JUST WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE? Telling me to do this and that!" yelled Draco with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "I've had enough of all this, and being in your bloody body is bad enough..." he wanted to continue but was stopped by Hermione. She held out a fist in front of his face, which made Draco rather nervous, as she was now standing taller than him.

"I've had enough of you too Malfoy," said Hermione. A smile of satisfactory blended with a hint faint annoyance played on her lips when she saw the display of nervousness on his face. Draco tried to conceal it with another crude remark but was taken aback. He too, started realising that there was no good arguing with her. The one and only thing they both really need to do isn't fight but to get that BLOODY ANTIDOTE.

"Ok, so I guess the most important thing now is to get that antidote." Hermione said.

"Yea." agreed Draco.

"And we needn't fight against each other, at least for now, so er... truce?" Draco looked a little shocked, never did he expect this and thus he gave it a second thought. After a while, he replied, "Truce."

"So, have we any plans now?" asked Hermione impatiently.

Draco didn't answer her, but instead he said, "Why not we skip classes today? It's no use going up for classes, Mc Conagall's teaching that spell now but it won't do us any good. And besides, I'm in you bloody body now..." his voice trailed off as he spoke. Swelling bigger and bigger in anger everytime he remembered that he was in the mudblood's body. And HECK, he is wearing a DRESS!!! How could that be? Besides, if he can't change back to his body, he'll be stuck here, with the mudblood and all. Worse, he certainly can't go back to the slytherins in this body now can he?

"The hospital wing," said Hermione suddenly. "It's the only place we can get help." she continued solemnly. The reason she want to go to the hospital wing is to check out Harry's and Ron's condition. Poor things.

"Do you want to get us KILLED?! If Snape finds out, we'll be dead meat! I suggest the best way is to sneak in Snape's office."

"That will make you a roast duck!" snorted Hermione.

"Suit yourself. I've been in Snape's office quite a few times for your information..." He was interrupted again, "Ok ok, but we still have to wait till midnight, why not we do some research in the library?" asked Hermione delightedly. She'd had enough for today, the body switch, being stuck with that ferret, oh and if Snape finds out, what will happen to her? The only thing to relieve her stress now is the library.

At first, Draco refused to go to the library but Hermione forced him once again with her mighty fist.(hehe) They entered the library and Hermione headed to the bookshelf at the back. She flipped through the books searching for some information about the PolyJuice Potion II and it's antidote while Draco, was still quite reluctant, sat near the window with his(her) legs on the table and his arms crossed. He put his legs down only after Madame Prince told him that boys could see his(her) panties, which made Hermione(who heard this) blushed a great deal.

Soon Draco got up from his and helped Hermione with the search. They both stayed and worked in the library the whole day till it closed. The suspicious surely aroused from Madame Prince since she kept asking them why are they here, but the only answer she got is that they were sent to look for some information. And hearing so, Madame Prince ignored them.

After searching and browsing through the library, their work seems to be in vain since they've come up with nothing. It's now Dinnertime but none of them have got the appetite, at least to go sit with their foes for dinner. So Hermione suggested that she'll go into the kitchen herself to get a meal.

"What's wrong with you? Ask the elves to bring them to you then. I won't want to be seen slipping into the kitchen just for food. Ugh, like that weasel."

"Ok, so why not you bring the food for me?" Hermione challenged him. "Besides I won't want to use elf slavery" said Hermione sympathetically.

"Oh Merlin! Granger, can't you just forget about the spew thing?" said Draco rolling his eyes which made him looks a lot like Hermione.

"It's S.P.E.W.!!" Hermione told him loudly.

"Ok, anyway, even if you get the foods, you'll still have to eat'em at the table Granger," Draco finished flatly.

"I'm eating outside," her voice was so weak that it indicates her(Draco's) body need food. She then turned and head towards the kitchen but Draco caught up with her and offered(in a VERY reluctant way) to get their dinner. He, of course, would not take any chances for anybody to ruin his pureblood Malfoy reputation. And with Hermione who was in his body walking into the kitchen, it'll surely be disgraceful. Besides, what will father say? And what will the other slytherins say?

So he walked towards the kitchen with heavy footsteps, dragging his legs as if they were made out of 1000 tonnes steel. On the way, he met up with Dobby, who was analysing the new pair of sock Harry got him last 2 days. The little elf was murmuring to himself "Harry Potter is a good wizard. Harry Potter gives Dobby socks. Dobby likes Harry Potter very much and so on..." Dobby suddenly stopped when he accidentally knocked onto Draco's(Hermione's) shoe, the elf stood up, rubbing his head and saw Hermione.(which was actually Draco) "Oops, sorry Ms Granger. Need anything?" he squeaked.

Draco was threw him a very hateful gaze, he hated Harry and just now, he's just got himself stuck with his(Harry's) sidekick, and now, he is hearing a BLASTED ELF singing praises for him? Oh bloody hell! Dobby was frightened by the was Hermione(Draco) was looking at him, so he plucked up some courage and ask again, "may... may I help you, Ms.... Ms.. Granger?" Dobby shivered as he spoke. Draco was so furious that he forgotten he was in Hermione's body that he opened his mouth to reply, "get me two sets of dinner right away. And, do not ever talk about Harry Potter in my presence." Draco sounded rather smooth but it was deadly, and it made Hermione's voice evolve into something else too. This scared the hell off the elf and he was back soon with two trays filled with generous servings of delicious foods. Dobby handed the trays to Draco and quickly left. As Dobby was walking, he murmured below his breath, "Miss Granger doesn't seem ok, she is very hungry, maybe..."

Draco with the trays in his hands sneaked out of the Hogwarts building cautiously so that nobody notices him. Hermione was already outside, she was sitting beside the lake enjoying the night breeze. When she saw Draco approaching, she held out her wand as said "Lumos" to light it. Draco saw it and went towards her direction. He looks quite uncomfortable while walking because he was in Hermione's Mary Jane. Suddenly he tripped over a little rock on the way and SPLASH!! The jar of pumpkin juice that he held in his hand went out of grip and it spilled all over Hermione.

The cold pumpkin juice that spilled all over Hermione gave a shock even she knew that Draco was coming, and so she fell into the lake. Draco quickly put down the two trays(whick thankfully didn't spill) and rush to the side of the lake to see if Hermione is there. He stood there for a moment and yelled, "Come out Granger, the merpeople won't save you!" He waited for some response but got none. After waiting for a while, he yelled some taunts into the lake again but still, there's no response from her. So he figured there's something wrong going down there, he took off his Mary Jane(guys don't wear those XD) and dive into the water.

When he's in the deep yet dark water, he tried to look for her but to no avail. He then dived deeper to look for her. Suddenly, he notices Hermione lying on the base of the lake, struggling, and she is in her own body, and Draco's in his own.(O.o;;) And this reminds him of what Snape had said in class this morning. "There's also another way to switch back into yourself, but this one's fatal. If the person who got their body switched with you died, then the potion's effect will be over"Hermione stops struggling and Draco notices that she is almost out of breath, without much hesitation, he went down and scooped her in his arms and swam up. Hoping that Hermione will survive, he swam faster in order to reach the surface.

When they were out of the lake, Draco carried Hermione and layed her on the grass. She looked unconscious and it made Draco worried. "What if she die? I'll be a murderer then, damn mudblood! She's the cause of everything!" He then take a quick look at her again, "Hey wake up mudblood!" he demanded. She did not. He shook her fervently but again there she did not wake up. All of the sudden, he was hit with thoughts of the girl's death and he was scared. Suddenly he remembered a scene from a muggle movie where a drowned child was saved by using CPR, or so the muggles called it. It left him no choice but to use it. He lowered his head, just inches away from hers, and he thought again, will he use it? Before this, he would never let that mudblood to even touch his bare skin, but now, if he is going to do CPR, it'll mean he's kissing her in an indirect way, what a sham! But time is running out, if he refuses to, she may die.

"There goes nothing," he thought. He lowered his head more and covers her mouth with his and breathed into hers. After a while, he lifted his head and she was coughing water out of her throat. POOF! Suddenly the both of them switches bodies again. (Oh wicked me!)

"What happened just now?" Hermione asked weakly.

Draco who was sitting beside her with his legs crossed said nothing. He is now looking afar at the Hogwarts castle. "It's quite late now," he spoke silkily. The breeze got stronger and it lifted his(Hermione's) bushy, it became tangly and messy. It blocked Draco's view and he's sweeping them away. "Damn Granger, your hair is bad," he spat.

"Do you suppose Snape's in bed now?" asked Hermione, she was still wet with pumpkin juice and water.

"I suppose, lets go then," replied Draco.

They headed back to the Hogwarts castle. When they were there, it was very quite as students and teachers are already in bed, but they still had to take precautions because the caretaker, Filch and his cat is still awake, surveying the place, looking for students that are out of bed. They tip toed to the teacher's office. Draco then lead Hermione to Snape's office, everything was going smoothly as lanned until they heard some very heavy footsteps. It was Snape, in his sleeping robes which was in a shade of dark velvety green. The man looked like he had just smelt a rat.

"Who's there?" shouted Snape.

Neither Hermione nor Draco manages to hide themselve, so it's obvious that he saw them. "What are you two doing here at this hour?" Snape asked in a questioning tone.

They stood still without replying. Shocked.

Snape then gave them a smile, which made them cold inside their bones. 'I may be in a good mood now, but I won't guarantee I will be later, now back to your dorms!"

As a matter of fact, they both can't go into their dorms in such a situation, besides, if they have to return to each others' dorm, they don't have the passwords. So they stood there staring at each other for moments, hinting on each other to come out with a plan or something. An annoyed look started to surface on Snape's face and he cleared his throat and said, "Need I repeat it again?" "No sir," both of them replied at the same time. "Then off you go." said Snape. Snape was determined to see them return to their dorms, so the only way out for them is to do what he says. Hermione walked to Draco's side and muttered the Grffindor's password which is butter beer and Draco too told her the Slytherin's password which is Bell fire After that, they both headed to their foe's dorm while Snape walked away.....

A/N:
f0xyness39: I did emailed you for updates didn't I? Hehe, hope I wans't bothering, felt a lil thick skinned. ^_^;;
JesseFanON2912: Read a few chapters from your story "Lauren and Draco Equals What". Really loved it. Keep up the good work ya!
Amythyst-Angel462: Yes, I will write more, but sorry to disappoint you, this chapter is boooring! The next one will be good I promise.
Thanks soooo much for reviewing!!! Can't thank you guys enough! ^____^ You guys made my day!!

My original plan is to put the toad(remember?) into the body switch as well. Draco will be in the toad's body, Hermione will be excluded. It'll be fun to read and write, but it's hard to make sparks fly(you get what I mean). So yea, I changed that part of the story, making Draco the toad(frog?) prince isn't easy enough.... challenging one.... Hermione won't kiss him either... ugh..... my mistake.

Next chap's teaser: Draco: Potty and Weasel KISSED me!!
