I looked at him. I didn't know what else to say.
"Very smooth, Granger. Very smooth" Malfoy smiled, "But 2 things: 1, don't EVER call me your boyfriend and, 2 I have to go now."
"Where?"
"Anywhere to get away from you. I can't let anyone see me with a mudblood!" He teased running off
I felt annoyed and angry. If I was the old Hermione, I would have ran off crying. But I had to be tough. I just watched him go..

Evening came and everyone was in the Great Hall eating. I wasn't hungry so I headed toward the Common Room.
"Pig snout!" I said to the fat lady in the picture.
The picture opened and I walked inside. No one seemed to be there.
"What's wrong with me?! Why am I being like this?!" I said aloud dropping my stuff on a chair and collapsing on the couch
"Why are you being like what?" Said a voice behind a chair that was faced away from me
"Huh? Who's there?" I asked the person with a familiar voice
The chair turned around and I saw a person I would LAST expect to be there
"Oliver?! What are you doing here?!"
"Uh..this is the Gryffindor common room and I am Gryffindor, remember?" He said looking at me as if I was stupid
"Oh. Right. You just startled me, that's all"
"So. What's wrong?"
"What do you mean?"
"Come on Hermione. You don't expect me to believe that you're OK"
"I guess I can tell him since just about ALL my friends are pissed off at me..But I feels weird talking to someone that is older.." I thought staring into the fire
"Oh alright..I want to be someone else"
"O.k.." Oliver said slowly and looked at me again as if I was stupid
"Ok. Let me break it down for you. Everyone knows me a smart, bossy, TOTALLY un-cool, weird, and ugly girl.."
"You're not ugly" Oliver said
I looked up from the fire and gazed into his eyes. They were so deep. Like a never-ending tunnel. I wanted to stare forever
"WHAT AM I DOING!" I thought looking away from his beautiful eyes
"Sorry," Oliver blushed, "You can continue"
"Uh...right..yeah so I'm like little ms perfect to everyone and I'm SO un- popular. So..I'm trying to change!"
"You're clothes? Nah..just kidding"
We laugh for a while and then I began again
"I've already began. I got my first detention this afternoon!" I smiled
"Wow..If you're happy about a detention, then you MUST be different"
"Well, I'd better get off to bed now." I yawned and looked at the clock. It was now 8:30.
"Oh, and Oliver? Thanks"
"You're welcome. Good night." He smiled
I felt goose bumps run up and down my skin. Was beginning to have a crush on Oliver?
"Very smooth, Granger. Very smooth" Malfoy smiled, "But 2 things: 1, don't EVER call me your boyfriend and, 2 I have to go now."
