A/N- I'm sorry my chapter titles aren't good. I can't think of good ones.
Give me some ideas. (I redid this chapter to)
Chapter 2-
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The months went by as they usually do in Hogwarts. Snape hated Ron, Harry and Hermione just as much as always and Hermione was striving to be perfect. But Malfoy was different. He was actually, kind of nice to Hermione. He even wasn't making fun of Harry and Ron as much. Besides dealing with homework and prefect duties, she had to deal with her two best friends gawking over girls. ("Just shut up and ask them out already!")
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Guess what?" Harry said gleefully one day at lunchtime in the beginning of November.
"What?"
"I finally asked Cho Chang, and she said yes!"
"Thank God. I don't think I'd be able to deal with you wishing you had her anymore," said Ron as he picked up a bread roll.
"Congrats Harry," said Hermione
"Do you know what," Ron said looking at the Ravenclaw table.
"What?" Harry and Hermione asked in unison.
"Remember that exchange student who was made a Ravenclaw?"
"The one in our Herbology class?"
"Yeah, I think I'm going to ask her out" Ron said walking over to the Ravenclaw table with the exchange student giggling.
"Well, love is in the air isn't it" Hermione said.
"I guess so, you Prefects should plan a dance or something"
"That's a good idea. I'm going to go back up to the common room to think about it" Hermione said walking out of the Great Hall to conjure up her ideas.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
** Potions class that afternoon **
"Today we will be learning the match-maker potion. I have already selected your partners." Snape said as the students groaned. They all knew he would make Gyffindor, Slytherin pairs. They could tell how much he enjoyed watching Gryffindors suffer having to work with their enemies.
"Millicent and Ron, Harry and Crabbe, Seamus and Goyle, Hermione and Draco."
Everyone seemed to be very displeased with his or her partners.
Hermione was not looking forward to this. Whenever he could, Malfoy would torment her any way he could. However, this sort of worked out well so she could be able to mention her ideas for a ball to him. This way she would not need to meet him after class.
"Now add your wormwood and asphodel, make sure your cauldron is just boiling, no large bubbles." Snape instructed as he walked around the numerous cauldrons. Soon Neville Longbottom's cauldron blew a cloud of black smoke into Neville's face. "NEVILLE!"
"Umm, Malfoy?"
"What?" Malfoy said sneering.
"I was thinking, maybe we should plan a ball. I have some ideas but I wanted to mention it to you and the others."
"Well, I guess we could. We do need to plan something."
"Alright I'll tell Mandy and Justin later."
There was a lot of silence after that. Hermione was extremely diligent with mixing up the potion and Malfoy barely did anything except stirring the cauldron while Hermione picked up another ingredient. Malfoy was perfectly fine with this though. He knew he wouldn't get into trouble because, everything Snape is would be gone. The entire time Malfoy just starred at Hermione. He didn't know why but he was compelled to. He examined her soft brown curls, dangling just below her shoulder, and her warm brown eyes concentrating on the potion.
"Now pour in the monksblood slowly," Snape said after fixing Neville and taking five points from Gryffindor for it.
Malfoy had realized what he was doing and then decided to do what he always does, annoy her.
"So Granger, who do you want your match to be? Your beloved Weasel?" Draco said smirking. He couldn't help making fun of her even though inside all he wanted was for her to love him.
"You know what Malfoy? I would not be surprised if no one showed up for you," Hermione said thinking that would happen to her.
"That's impossible mudblood. I'm too gorgeous not to have a match."
"Malfoy, your ego is so large that it must be taking over your brain, because that did not make any sense what so ever." Hermione said shaking her head at him and getting back to mixing her potion.
Malfoy was about to say something but Snape cut him off, which was a good thing for him because he couldn't think of a good comeback.
"Now to find your match your must have your name written on your parchment and throw it into the cauldron. You then have to look into the cauldron and instead of seeing your reflection you will see your match."
"Well go Granger." Malfoy said handing her a piece of parchment.
Hermione wrote her name quickly to get this thing over with. She tossed it in and looked into the cauldron. Immediately she looked up. Malfoy must have been looking to because he was just as astonished as her.
"Lets just keep this between you and I" Draco said.
"Fine with me," Hermione said as class ended.
As she walked out of the room she thought to herself:
"How can Draco and I be made for each other?"
