Chapter 2

"Hermione! Wake the fuck up!" a voice hollered. It was Harry and Ron trying to wake up Hermione. "Hermione, if you don't wake up soon, your going to get left on the train!" Ron screamed. Hermione winced a few times and then finally got up.

"Sorry, I must have dozed off…"

"Yeah, its ok. But hurry and get your trolley before the train leaves and your still on it," Harry stated.

"You guys go on without me. I'll get my trolley and meet you at the Great Hall for dinner," Hermione said. The boys agreed and left Hermione to gather her stuff. She hummed a song while looking for all her CD's and what not. "Hello Granger," Hermione turned to see Draco leaning against the door to her compartment.

"Here to make my life a living Hell, Malfoy?" she sighed. She really hated him.

"Awe, Granger, I'm not here to be mean. I'm here to make truce," he held out his hand. Hermione pondered whether or not to shake, but then she saw his wicked smirk and decided not to.

"The day I make truce with someone like you, Malfoy, is the day I join cheerleading,"

"Since when did little goody, goody Granger hate cheerleaders?"

"Since I met Pansy, that's when," she said haughtily.

"Pansy is quite the slut, isn't she?" Draco said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, that's an under-statement. I bet she's gotten with almost every guy at school," Hermione said while shaking her head. 'Whoa, this is to weird. Having a normal conversation. And its about his Ex-girlfriend…this is so awkward.' She thought.

"I wouldn't be surprised if she has," they laughed. Hermione tried not to make eye contact. His eyes seemed to go straight through you and look deep into your soul. And she hated it. But after laughing they both looked up. Hazel met gray. They stared at each other for a few seconds before Hermione looked down again. 'I cant do this.' she said to herself and got up, took her trolley and left. "Sorry, But I have to go," she yelled back. Draco titled his head as he watched Hermione scurry down the train hallway, 'Nice ass…' he thought.

Hermione dropped off her trolley in the Girl's dormitory and ran down to The Great Hall to meet Harry and Ron. "Hermione, over here," yelled Ron while waving his hands in the air.

"Hey guys, thanks for saving a seat for me," Hermione replied.

Harry was about to say something but was interrupted by Dumbledor who was making his beginning of the school year speech.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome! It's so good to be back, isn't it? And for all you first years out there, I have a few ground rules for you that everyone else already knows; You must be back in your dormitory by 11 PM. No horse play in the halls, and no wondering to the Dark Forest. Follow these rules, and I'm sure you'll have a wonderful year. Now, DIG IN!" he finished. Everyone clapped and cheered as they starting devouring the delicious food. Hermione heard some weird noises coming from her friend Faith (OC) ripping apart chicken and a few other kinds of meat. "Talk about hunger," Ron said.

"That's not normal…" Harry said. "Look at some of the other students…They're also eating only meat." Hermione didn't pay much attention to Harry. But she also noticed. She was to busy gazing at Draco. He had finished his whole plate and was now picking his teeth with a chicken bone. 'Geez, that was a lot of food too.' Hermione thought.

After Hermione, Harry, and Ron had eaten all they could, they said good night and Hermione made her way up to the girls dorm. As soon as she walked in, Faith ran and gave Hermione a huge hug. "HERMIONE!" she yelled in excitement. They hugged for a while and started talking about boys and other typical girl stuff. "Oh my god, 'Mione, did you see Draco Malfoy yet? He's so damn sexy!! He like went all Gothic and its good on him! I think I'm in love…"her words faded.

Hermione giggled and then added, "I cant believe you…you and every other girl! They all think he's 'spicy'. He's not all that great looking. Besides, I have a boyfriend and I really am in love."

"Bet he's not hotter then Draco…" she sneered and then laughed. "Well I'm tried as hell, see ya in the morning, 'Mione," Faith said while getting into bed.

"Not a bad idea," Hermione said to herself while changing into PJ's.

"Where's the money you owe me?!" a harsh voice screeched. Which had woken Hermione up.

"I don't have it!" squeaked a low voice.

"God damnit! I told you, you only had until today or else my patience would perish like your little life is about to!"

"Spare me, please!" begged the little voice.

"And let you tell everyone my secret? I certainly think not." There was a pause… "Well, its late. And I'm hungry…so I'll just leave you with my little friend. Have a blast." Hermione heard foot steps and then a loud scream. She began to quiver with the thought that it might be a Vampire or something. A stream of light shone through as someone began opening the door. "Psst, Hermione. You might want to come and look at this…" said a scared voice.
