Hermione looked out the window. It was 3:00 a.m. but she took no notice. She had been thinking about someone the whole night, Draco Malfoy. It wasn't that she didn't like him, but she didn't hate him either. He had changed a lot over the summer. Suddenly, he became nicer and just an all around better person. Hermione didn't want anyone to know how she thought that Draco was nice. . .It was like an alternate universe where nothing made sense. Hermione certainly didn't want to be his girlfriend, but she secretly hoped that he wouldn't get a girlfriend. Hermione suddenly saw two figures outside, by the lake. She tried to see who they were but it was just too dark. She then saw that they were inching closer and closer, until they kissed. She looked away and climbed back into bed. She tried to go back to sleep, thinking about the two people by the lake. Maybe it was the giant squid. . .

"Hey, Mione. You look tired," said Harry. It was 8:00 a.m. and Hermione had just come down to breakfast.
"Oh, well, I couldn't sleep last night," she said, yawning loudly.
"Well, we saved you some bacon and eggs," said Ron, looking at the empty table. "Oh, well, oops." Hermione groaned and poured herself a glass of orange juice. She put the glass on the table beside her and took out her History of Magic book. She looked up and her eyes widened. She spilled her orange juice all over the tablecloth. Draco had his arm around Katelynd Preta. She just stared at them in shock. But then she realized who the couple by the lake was. It was Draco and Katelynd. They had kissed. Draco never told Hermione that he had a girlfriend. How long had they been together? And Draco had practically been flirting with Hermione ever since they came back to school. She couldn't stop staring at them, hugging and kissing. But, then, she forced herself to stop and she focused on cleaning up the orange juice.
"Cleansio," she whispered, pointing her wand at the tablecloth and the juice was cleaned up. She continued her breakfast in silence.
"Hey, Hermione? Are you OK? You've been pretty quiet this morning," said Harry.
"Yeah, you usually can't shut up," said Ron. Hermione rolled her eyes and got up. She quickly brushed by Draco and Katelynd. Draco was going to say hi but she walked away too quickly. Draco wondered what was wrong with Hermione. . .

Hermione quickly walked into the Gryffindor Common Room and into the girls' dormitories. She got her History of Magic book and Defense Against the Dark Arts book. She stuffed them both into her book bag. She looked into the mirror. Her hair was bushy again and her face wasn't adorned with makeup. She looked like she had all of her previous years at Hogwarts, except for when she was at the Yule Ball. Making herself up was such a hassle every morning anyway. Sure, she looked better when she was groomed but so many people paid attention to her and it was starting to get annoying. Hermione just wanted to fit in and be like everyone else. She hastily put her hair into a ponytail and put on some pink lip-gloss. She walked out of the dorm and into the Common Room. She saw that it was empty. She looked at her watch. History of Magic would be starting in a matter of minutes. She quickly raced out of the Common Room and started running to the HOM classroom.
"No running in the corridors, Hermione!" exclaimed Roger Davies, the new Head Boy. "5 points from Gryffindor!" When Roger had walked away, she scowled and started running again. She ran to the classroom in the nick of time. Professor Binns wasn't yet in the classroom. Hermione joined Harry and Ron. She saw Draco and Katelynd sitting next to each other on the other side of the room. Draco waved but Hermione ignored it. She took out her History of Magic book. Suddenly, Professor Binns walked in through the chalkboard.
"Hello class. Please flip to page 35. Today, we will be studying about House Elfs," said Professor Binns. Harry and Ron grinned at Hermione. The previous year, she had started S.P.E.W., the Stand Against Elfish Welfare. Hermione looked slightly angry. She could've used this information the previous year.
"House Elves are." and so, Professor Binns continued with his lesson (A/N: Sorry, too lazy to write a lesson out). Everyone took notes and several people nearly fell asleep.
"All right, you may all leave now," said Professor Binns.
"Thank god," Ron muttered. Hermione giggled. The three (Harry, Hermione, and Ron) all left the classroom when Hermione felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Draco.
"Hey, Hermione, can we talk?" he asked.
"Yeah, sure, Malfoy," she said.
"Privately. . ." Draco said to Harry and Ron. Ron scowled and left reluctantly.
"Are you OK?" he asked.
"Why does everyone keep asking me that?" Hermione said. Draco shrugged. She opened her mouth but then closed it again.
"You might've noticed my new girlfriend, Kat-"
"Yeah, I noticed," Hermione interrupted.
"Are you all right with that?" he asked.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be? It's not like we're dating," Hermione said confusingly.
"Well, OK then," said Draco. "I have to go walk Katelynd to Charms now. See you there?" Hermione simply nodded her head. He quickly walked off and joined Katelynd.
The truth was, Hermione wasn't all right with Draco dating Katelynd. She was, though she wouldn't admit it, slightly jealous. He had been flirting with her one day and the next, he had a girlfriend. Hermione was confused by these new set of feelings for Draco. She didn't understand why she felt like this. Oh well.

A/N: So. . .how was the chapter? Horrible? OK? Horribly Good? I don't think it was good. I'm kind of stuck on ideas but I'll get through it. Btw, if you can, please give me some IDEAS! I'll probably use them and credit them to you so if you want your name in a fanfic, go ahead and shoot 'em at me (NOT literally!). BYE!!
