Ch.1-The Bracelets

Hermione woke up at 8:15 to the sound of Padma screaming at her from the other side of her locked door. "We're going to be late, Hermione! We have to be there at 9:00! You have to wake Draco!"

"I'm getting a shower first! Ok?" Hermione screamed back.

"Fine! Hurry up!" said Padma.

"I will!" Hermione replied as she got out of bed and walked into the bathroom. She started a hot shower and got in, washed her hair and body and shaved her legs. She got out, got dressed, dried her hair and put it up with two strands of her, now long, bangs. She ran down her stairs and up Draco's. "Draco!" she screamed through the unlocked door. "Get you lame ass out of bed!"

"Just five more minutes?" he moaned.

"Get your ass out of your bed now or I'll come in and take it out!" she yelled back.

"But I'm too lazy to get up!" he moaned. Hermione opened the door ran in and pushed him off the side of the bed.

"If anyone deserves sleep here it's me and Padma! Now, Get dressed!" Hermione then noticed the bracelet on Draco's bedside table. "Oh my god!"

"What?" asked Draco sitting up on the floor, he saw that Hermione was looking at his bracelet. "What's wrong with the bracelet?"

"Where did you get it?" asked Hermione.

"Um, some muggle girl made it for me."

"That muggle girl was me, Draco, I made that bracelet when I was five years old!" she said and she pulled an identical one out of her pocket. "Which means that you made this one."

Draco looked at her in disbelief. "Yeah right, I watched the girl make it and besides she had red hair."

"I had red hair when I was five, it changed when I was about eight. I remember almost exactly what happened to. It was in the summer and I was making a bracelet under my favorite tree at the park across the street from my house. I heard some one on the other side of it, the tree, and it was you and I asked you if you wanted to make a bracelet and you did."

"Weird."

"Yeah, creepy." Said Hermione. "Well get dressed in the bathroom and we'll go down to breakfast with Padma and Justin, who is probably ready." Draco went in to the bathroom with his robes, put them on and came back out. He and Hermione left his room and went down to the common room were Padma and Justin were waiting.

"Took you long enough!" said Padma.

"What were you to snogging or something?" said Justin.

"For your information I wouldn't kiss a mudblood if my life depended op it!" said Draco.

"Thank you so damn much, Malfoy! You've just brightened my day." Said Hermione.

"You are most certainly welcome!" said Draco.

"Quite the contrary actually, you are a self centered bastard, Malfoy! Remember our little talk in the entrance hall, will you? Oh, and the bracelets. Think about what you could have had, then you can tell me I'm welcome!" said Hermione and she, Padma and Justin left Draco standing there staring after Hermione as she made her way out of the common room and down to the Great Hall. 'What the hell was she on about?' thought Draco, 'What I could have had?' he walked out of the portrait hole and down to the Great Hall to see that the other three prefects, along with the rest of the school, were already eating. He walked up to the prefect table, sat down at the end of the table by Justin and ate quietly.
