So yes, I give you, MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

Hermione waved goodbye to her parents one last time before boarding the train. Another year at Hogwarts; another boring, miss-leading, school year where she has to put up with kid's taunts. Just last year, she actually went out with Harry for a while before Harry's "fan club" found out and decided to make the last two years at Hogwarts a living hell for her. Hermione and Harry remained friends afterwards, but decided to put the fact that they went out behind them. It wasn't that they were ashamed; it was the best thing for them to do. His fan clubs were becoming more vicious. Hermione sighed as she found an empty compartment to herself at the very back of the train.

"Hermione! There you are!" Ron exclaimed, coming up from behind her.

Startled, she looked up. Ron and Harry stood smiling at her with Ginny scowling behind.

"I just needed to be alone for a second," Hermione said, quickly glancing nervously at Ginny.

"School hasn't even officially started yet, there's no need to study," Harry commented.

The three of them walked in and sat down. As Harry and Ron were complaining about how hungry they were, Ginny slipped a note in Hermione's bag. Hermione did not notice, she was too busy wrapped up in her thoughts. There is absolutely nothing to look forward to this year, not even the feast. All she wanted to do was lock herself in the girl's dormitory and read. Maybe she should somehow find a way to sneak out of the castle.

Crookshanks leapt onto Hermione's lap, purring contentedly.Well, at least I've got Crookshanks to keep my company, Hermione thought miserably. Not that Ron and Harry wouldn't talk to her or anything. It felt weird talking to her ex and the brother of a girl who hated her. She sighed again and looked out the window. The ride to Hogwarts used to be peaceful, but it felt rather tedious now.

"NO! THE LUNCH TROLLEY LADY DIDN'T COME! SHE WALKED RIGHT PASS US!" Ron exclaimed before rushing out, closely followed by Harry.

Hermione tried avoiding Ginny's threatening glares and continued occupying herself by looking outside.

"You better stay away from Harry this year, I don't care if he is your best friend," Ginny spat.

She walked out shooting another glare at Hermione, who in turn, rolled her eyes after the red head. She was pretty used to Ginny's empty threats now. The only bad thing she had accomplished last year was setting Hermione's homework on fire. Hermione had a hard time explaining to Professor Flitwick what had happened. A few minutes went by and finally, Harry and Ron came back carrying armful of sweets.

"Guess who stalled the lunch trolley," Ron said while dumping his candy on his seat.

Who can be stupid enough to do that?

"Yup that's right, Malfoy." Ron scowled. "Stupid, fowl, evil, ugly, bratty, snotty git, Malfoy!"

Harry sniggered and opened a Chocolate Frog. He passed one to Hermione who blushed and muttered "thanks." Was she blushing? No! She simply couldn't fall for Harry again, after what they agreed to! No! I'll just have to fall for somebody else, but the question is, who? Hermione thought.
Did it really matter whether she fancies someone or not? Just as long as she leaves Hogwarts with loads of O.W.L's and N.E.W.T's, she'll be fine.
Half an hour went by and the sky outside was getting darker. Students were scrambling inside their compartments, pulling frantically on their robes.

"Turn around, or better yet, leave," Hermione ordered.

"What? And miss out the chance of seeing you naked?" Ron laughed.

Hermione blushed and threw an empty box of Bertie Botts at his head.

"You get more perverted each year," Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Well what do you expect? Having me get smarter? I don't think so," Ron stated.

"You just dissed yourself," Harry laughed.

Ron gave Harry a blank stare before Harry muttered "nevermind."

"Now, out!" Hermione shooed.

"Okay, your royal highness," Harry said with a pretend bow while Ron curtsied.

They both backed out of the compartment closing the door behind them.

"And you better not look through the door's window!" Hermione said. She could have sworn she heard a disappointed "dammit!" Hermione waited until she heard Ron and Harry's footsteps as they left before she changed. She pulled her pair of jeans off and quickly pulled on the school skirt. She put on her shoes and pulled her t-shirt off. Just as she did that, someone swung open the compartment door. Hermione let out a gasp and covered her chest with her shirt. It was Draco and he apparently, was in shock.

"D-Did I just see mudblood naked?" Draco stammered, eyes wide.

"No... you fell asleep in your compartment and so now you're uh, dreaming," Hermione said, blushing really hard. She couldn't think of anything else to say to break the stunned silence.

"I'm not stupid!" Draco snapped.

"You sure?" Hermione questioned.

"No, I mean no, NO! I mean yes, I mean... just put some clothes on for my poor eye's sake," Draco snapped.

"Go away then!" Hermione frowned.

Draco paused, watching her with more rapt attention. "Since I'm here already, I don't feel like leaving."

"Malfoy, go away!" she said through gritted teeth. She felt her cheeks grow impossibly warmer.

"Nah."

The train was slowing down and students were already coming out of their compartments, and waiting in the hall to get off. Hermione hardly had any time left to change.

"Fine, at least be a gentlemen and turn around then."

"What? So you can hex me?"

"Just turn around so I can put on my shirt, unless you would rather see me walk around naked at the castle!" Hermione snapped feeling more frustrated by the second.

"Now that I give it another thought, I wouldn't mind so much," Draco smirked.

Hermione shot him a death glare before he finally gave up and turned around, not before letting out a loud sigh. She quickly put on the rest of her uniform and stuffed her clothes in a duffel bag.

"Are you done yet?" Draco asked.

"Yeah, now can you leave?"

"Yeah sure why not? Not much fun anymore now that you have a shirt back on," Draco drawled.

He got up and left, winking at Hermione before closing the door. Hermione shivered. Did Malfoy just wink at me? Don't want to think about it.

"Sick perverted boys," Hermione muttered darkly.

"Hermione! Can we come back in now?" Ron asked.

Before Hermione could answer, they walked in with their uniforms on. The train came to a halt as students got off, chattering excitedly. First years were looking very nervous and worried. The 6th years were happily chatting with the other students. Another year had begun, but little did Hermione know what trouble lie ahead.
