Draco's POV "Why did I do that? Draco thought to himself. "We were getting along just fine until pansy came along.stupid git." "Oh, Draco.are you feeling better yet? When I walked by that compartment I just KNEW something was going on.I bet your glad I checked." Pansy giggled stupidly trying to impress him. "Umm.Yeah.really glad." he looked off into the crowd and saw Hermione walking swiftly towards him. "Ah, excuse me Pansy." Draco walked slowly in Hermione's direction, hopefully he could just pretend nothing had happened.cause under no circumstances do Malfoy's apologize. "Hey Her. "Don't talk to me you filthy bastard!" Hermione looked as if she had been crying and Draco felt a twinge of pain. To make matters worse, a fresh new wave of tears started falling as she walked away. "She's right, I am a bastard," Draco muttered as he looked around him. A good distance away he saw Lavender and Parvati whispering to each other and making rude hand gestures in his direction. Just what he needed, the two Gryffindor psychos pissed at him. He turned back to see where Hermione had gone, and she saw her bawling her eyes out talking to her two friends Potty and Weasel. Those two losers.he could treat her much better than they ever could. It wasn't until just then, that Draco really thought about his new feelings. Why hadn't he noticed how beautiful Hermione had gotten? Did she always look like this? He had always been taught to hate all Muggles and Muggle-borns, but how could something that was supposed to be a vile being.be so beautiful? Draco had been slowly weaving through the crowd pondering his thoughts, when he bumped into the youngest of the Weasleys. Not thinking he apologized, "Oh, sorry Virginia." and he continued through the large sea of people thinking of any possible way he could make Hermione feel better. "What's up with Draco?" Ginny asked her friends very confused. Hermione's POV "Oh Harry, it was just awful.he was being so nice, and then pansy walked in." Hermione continued her crying, not able to pronounce any more words properly. "But Hermione.I just don't understand. I thought you hated Draco?" "Well, I do.no.I did.no.eugh, I don't know, I need to sleep and we still have the sorting, and the feast, and the meeting for head boy and girl."Hermione looked up at the magnificent ceiling, which reflected the now dark sky. It was beautiful, the stars were shining so brightly, and it almost seemed to give off a warm aura. "Let's just go take a seat, I at least need to sit down." "Ok." Harry and Ron turned to look at each other, this was going to be a long night. At the Feast. "Percy has been talking about something ALL summer, he's really excited.and you know how hard it is for Percy to get excited," Ron laughed. "Yeah no kidding, he's just about as excitable as me!" Hermione laughed too, her mood had risen considerably after the announcement of head girl and Head boy for this year. She had.of course become Head Girl, and the Head Boy was Justin Finch Fletchley. Justin was pretty decent to her, so she was pretty excited for the year to commence. "Hey Mione? Did Dumbledore tell you what the surprise is? Harry asked sweetly, trying to coax it out of her. "No he didn't.and besides, even if he had.I wouldn't be telling you, that's why it's a surprise," Hermione said matter of factly. "Uh huh, Hey! Who's that girl over there?" Ron was now standing up to get a glimpse of an unfamiliar girl. "I don't know.but there are a bunch of new students standing over there by the 1st years, and they look to be about our age."Harry stood up too, and he looked very confused. Hermione, not really caring too much about the new students let her eyes wander over to the slytherin table. Draco was sitting next to Pansy staring off into space, or was he staring over at the Gryffindor table? Did she really like Draco? It couldn't be possible, but what were these fluttering feelings she felt in her stomach when she looked at him? Hermione's thoughts were interrupted as Dumbledore started talking again. "As many of you have already heard I am sure, we have a surprise for you at Hogwarts this year. Like in fourth year, when we had the student exchange, we will be hosting a small handful of students again. But this year they will be from the United States, Salem Witch Academy. The students are in their 7th and 6th year and also have brought their Defense Against Teacher, Madame Vogel. Since we are again in need of a teacher in that area, we figured Madame Vogel would be the best choice. Without further addue as I am sure you are all very hungry, we will start the sorting. Not really caring about the first year sorting Hermione asked the boys what had been nagging at her mind for hours. "By the way, why weren't you on the train today?" Hermione asked raising her eyebrows at them both. "Oh! Well, I just got my drivers license this summer, and I received a car as a birthday present from Mrs. Figg, so I drove all of us over. I tried to get a hold of you to let you know, but you obviously didn't get my owl's." Harry answered quickly. "Oh." Hermione was puzzled wondering why she hadn't gotten her letters this summer, but then remembered her new puppy. "It was probably our new puppy Bear, he has a thing for ripping up paper." she laughed loudly, glad to know that her friends hadn't forgotten about her. "Shh! They are starting the sorting of the Salem students!" Ron looked up to the stool excitedly, he been quite taken by one of the students. "Lindahl, Kathryn," McGonagall called. "Ravenclaw!" shouted the hat. "Courville, Laura," "Slytherin!" "Turcotte, Nicole," "Ravenclaw!" "Smullen, Christopher," "Gryffindor!" "Cox, Kelly," "Slytherin!" "Worcester, William," "Hufflepuff!" "Mason, Joshua," "Hufflepuff!" "Ramsdell, Heather," "Gryffindor!" as the hat shouted the last name, Ron jumped out of his seat and hollered "YES!" "I take it the girl's name must be Heather," Harry whispered to Hermione. "Mm." Hermione replied not paying attention. Draco was greeting the new Slytherin's from Salem. Why was she so jealous? Lauren and Callie was it? I guess they looked nice enough.but would they try anything? What was she saying.it didn't matter if they tried anything, they weren't going out.in fact they didn't even like each other. Too many questions, and WAY too many thoughts were going through her head right now. She decided to join into the conversation with Harry and Ron. "Hi! My name is Ron Weasley, and your.Heather? Ron smiled very charmingly. "Yes, my name is Heather," Heather looked at him endearingly. If Ron had ever loved before, she was the one. She looked into his eyes as he talked animatedly to her. He looked so happy, if only she could feel like him at the moment. Hermione stuck her hand out to introduce herself, "Hi, my name is Hermione," she seemed very nice, but there was something going on between Heather and her friend Chris from Salem. 'He's very cute' she thought to herself. "Hi Hermione, my name is Chris Smullen, how are ya?" Chris replied to her, Hermione had always loved American accents. "I'm pretty good." as charming and handsome as Chris was she just couldn't get her mind off of Draco. "Uh huh.what's wrong? You seem kind of drawn to the other side of the room," Chris grinned ear to ear as Hermione turned a bright shade of red. "I have a sixth sense.it's that blond boy over there isn't it?" "Umm.yeah, it is.are you a seer?" Hermione asked him, suddenly more interested in her conversation with Chris. "Well, I'm a seer in training, but no one is supposed to know, so keep it to yourself.if you can," Chris smiled his wonderful smile again, she had a feeling they would get a long very well this year. Trying to forget about Draco and their afternoon on the train, she took one more quick look at the Slytherin table, and turned her attention fully onto the handsome boy in front of her. Author's note~ ==================================================== Yeah.I know.this chapter kind of sucked, but it was needed. I had to introduce the different characters, and try to develop into Hermione's and Draco's mixed up feelings for each other more than the previous chapter. ~Dark Castle Witch~ I am not taking a very high level English class, so I may not have proper grammar all of the time. I will try my hardest, and thanks for the suggestion! ~Catalina Rose, HarryHermione4eva, Winkernoony, and Gryffindor's Girl~ THANK YOU sooooooo much for letting me know about the spacing problem. Knowing me I probably wouldn't have noticed. ~Questions~ I am pretty new to fan fiction.net, and I am not sure if I have it set so only people who have a 'pen name' can sign a review. If someone could let me know how to change it so everyone can leave a review, it would be greatly appreciated!!! THANKS EVERYONE! (and don't forget to leave a review) ~Genny Chamberlain~
