Since FF.net is temporarily down, I will use this time to type out what I
have written. I have like 7 chapters written, but I have to type them all
out.

By lunch, Harry was still beaming about his victory over Malfoy. Ron and Hermione joined him at the Gryffindor table.
"Harry, that was great! Malfoy was silent the whole period. Unfortunately, Snape was in a bad mood, the greasy git."
"Ron!" Hermione squealed.
"Well, he was! He picked on Neville more than usual and he gave us loads of homework."
"Don't mind him, Harry. So how is Advanced Potions? I'll be it's full of Slytherins."
Harry swallowed, then grinned. "Actually, there's only one Slytherin, Michele. I was the only Gryffindor in there; I don't know where Michelle is." He was interrupted by the Headmaster standing up and tapping on a glass.
"I have grave news," everyone quickly quieted down and focused on the Headmaster. "The Head Girl, Michelle Christensen was called away on a family emergency. She will not be returning to Hogwarts, but tutored by her father. But that leaves us to appoint another Head Girl."
Malfoy leaned into Goyle and whispered, "Bet he picks Samantha." Of course, no one heard, but Samantha glared at him. Had she heard? He couldn't tell, but he returned his attention to Dumbledore.
"I have narrowed the list to three girls, and the faculty will discuss it over lunch. I will announce our choice before the next period."
It was the quietest lunch ever at Hogwarts, which didn't bother Samantha. Her gaze kept shifting to the Slytherin table. She, of course, had no say in the matter, so she was left to watch the students while the teachers debated in the back room. When they emerged, the few whispers stopped and all eyes were on the Headmaster.
"It was a tough decision," everyone missed his glance at Snape, "but we have decided on Jennifer Baker, of Hufflepuff." The Hufflepuff table erupted, and Gryffindor joined them. Harry was grinning from ear to ear. They deserved this after what happened to Cedric. He looked up to the head table where he saw tears in Professor Sprout's eyes. Snape, on the other hand, was looking meaner than ever; this day was getting worse and worse for him.
The Headmaster managed to calm everyone down and continued when order was restored. "Congratulations. Please come to see me after classes are finished so I can fully explain the duties and responsibilities you now carry. Enjoy the rest of your meal." He walked over to the Slytherin table and leaned in to Malfoy. "Please see me after lunch," and returned to the head table. The Slytherins were confused, and ate in silence.
Harry and Hermione went off to the library for their free period while Ron went outside for Advanced Care of Magical Creatures. When they reached the library, Harry pulled out his potions book.
"Harry! You're actually studying!" This of course attracted the attention of the librarian, who promptly told them to keep it down.
"Yes, Herm," he whispered, "I'm studying. Sitting in that class today made me realize how far ahead they are. Remember, I'm in there early, so I missed all the fifth year stuff."
"Well, you can borrow my book this weekend to catch up."
"Thank Herm. I can always count on you," he gave her his winning smile and she nodded. "I really don't want to let Professor Dumbledore down." He buried his nose in the book as Hermione pulled out her Arithmancy homework.

Next chapter: What did Draco do? Will he be expelled this time? And why did the Head Girl go home on the first day of school?
A/N: I kinda like Draco, so probably not...though I really don't like Lucius much. There's a little hint.
