Hermione woke to the sun shining through the window above her bed, warming
her face. She sat up groggily. Today was going to be a long day. Though the
day was Saturday, Hermione had plenty to do. She had essays to write and
charts to graph. After a trip to the prefect's bathroom, Hermione threw on
some old clothes and headed to the library, deciding that she didn't have
time to enjoy even the simplest breakfast.
As she sat down at her favorite table she became lost in the world of mystical incantations, potions making and ancient runes.

"So I take it you've decided to accept my proposition?"
Draco eyed Harry who looked the way he felt. Tired. The boy ran his hands through the tangled brown mess that was his hair and sighed before replying.
"I guess but you had better be good to Hermione. Not that she-"
Draco shook his hand.
"Whatever. Now tell me, what is it that Hermione likes to do in her spare time?"
At this question, Harry let out a hearty chuckle.
"You mean besides study? I think she likes to read. Yeah...she does. She likes Jane Austen."
At Harry's last words, Draco laughed out loud which caused Harry to become confused.
"Why didn't you tell me she liked girls? Is Jane Austen a Gryffindor?"
Harry rolled his eyes disgustedly. He couldn't believe what Malfoy had just said.
"You're an idiot. Jane Austen is a muggle writer. You know, Pride and Prejudice?"
Draco furrowed his brow.
"No. I don't. Anyways, what else does Hermione like to do?"
Harry sighed, how would Draco ever get Hermione? Then a thought popped into his mind, why was he helping Draco get her in the first place? The answer came in the form of a name that had been implanted in his head since his third year and was now more present then ever.Cho.
"That's about it. What about Cho?"
Draco looked as if in deep thought leaving a very significant pause in the middle of the conversation.
"She likes flowers. Red is her favorite color and she hates spiders. Anything else?"
Harry, who had had a crush on Cho since his third year, of course had more questions. He looked around the hallway they were in before speaking; checking to make sure that no early risers had stumbled upon their private conversation.
"Has she ever said anything about me? You know.when you and her talked?"
Now it was Draco's turn to roll his eyes.
"When we hung out there wasn't ever much talking."
Harry let Draco's comment pass by without a response. In his opinion it wasn't worth a reply. As much as Harry hated the idea of getting Malfoy's sloppy seconds, the chance of getting his dream girl was too close at hand to give it up over some arrogant jerk's remark.
"Look whatever. Just tell me everything. What she dislikes what she does in her spare time and who she hangs around? Oh yeah, could you tell me what classes she has too?"
As Malfoy looked at Harry, he felt a pang of.something. He wasn't quite sure what it was. Potter as looking at him like an excited puppy. How could he just stand there and lie to him? He'd never even talked to Cho let alone, been her boyfriend! Wait?! What was he thinking! Of course he could lie to Potter! It didn't matter what he said, Potter was too stupid to see into his plan.he was too preoccupied with how he was going to get with Cho. Shouldn't Harry have noticed by now that it was mudblood hating, Draco that was after his once best friend? 'Oh well,' thought Draco, 'it just makes my job easier. Little did he know that certain red-haired wizard was going to make his job a hell of a lot harder.
"Well I really wanted to go and see if Hermione was in the library but since you asked."
