Hermione ate her breakfast quickly and then power walked out of the Great Hall to go get her books and things that she needed for her morning classes. She looked down at her schedule and saw that she had double potions with the Slytherins, for the first time during her time at Hogwarts she didn't mind. In her way to her room she passed Harry and Ron arguing. They didn't see her so she decided to hide behind a pillar and listen.
"RON!! YOU ARE BEING ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! YOU HAVE TO AT LEAST HEAR HERMIONE OUT!!!" Harry yelled while turning bright red, it seemed that the only way to get through to Ron recently was to yell. Harry then calmed down a bit," Besides what kind of friend would you be if you didn't listen to her?" Harry asked.
"HARRY!! WHY ARE YOU BEING SO THICKHEADED!! HERMIONE, HERMIONE GRANGER IS GOING OUT WITH MALFOY!! THE SAME MALFOY THAT HAS TORTURED HER, MADE HER LIFE A LIVING HELL SINCE THE FIRST DAY OF HOGWARTS! WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT IS SEEING THIS?!?!" Ron yelled while storming away from Harry. Harry just through is arms up as if giving up and then went to the common room to get his books ready for his first class, potions, with the Slytherins. 'This should be great!' Harry thought to himself.
Hermione came out from behind the pillar and then ran to her room. She could understand where Ron was coming from but she just didn't get why he wouldn't listen to her!! There was so much going through her head. It was the first day of classes and already everything was going down the drain. She had to talk to Ron, soon, or else she wouldn't be able to concentrate in her classes. Hermione walked into Potions a minute early. She looked around for a seat. The tables were different this year, it was two to a table. Harry was sitting at a table with Ron obviously still pleading with him to talk to her. She looked for Draco but he wasn't there yet. She spotted a empty table in the back of the room and sat down there. Hermione didn't like sitting in the back but that's what she gets for being late.
Snape then rose from his chair expecting to catch the dream team trying to sit three at a table but to his surprised Granger was by her self five tables away from Potter and Weasley.
"You all know my rules for this class so I do not need to go over them," Snape said walking around the room eyeing different students. "I expect you all to follow them," Snape said and then looked at Harry and Ron and then to Hermione. "These will be your permanent seats for the entire year. The person sitting next to you will be your partner for all of your potions." Snape said and then Hermione Grangers hand shot up, something that definitely did not surprise Snape.
"I don't have a partner." Hermione said looking around the room.
"There is an even amount of you so obviously someone is missing," Snape said coldly to Hermione. Everyone then began looking around for the missing person. Then the door shot open and Draco Malfoy walked in as if it didn't matter that he was late. He looked around for an empty seat and to his delight there was one next to Hermione. He didn't even apologize to Snape. He simply began to walk over to the empty seat next to Hermione getting many evil eyes along the way, mainly coming from Weasel.
"Mr. Malfoy, you are late. I will let it slide this time but do not let this become a habit," Snape said to Draco.
"It won't," Draco said simply as he sat down next to Hermione.
"Open your books to page 102 and begin the potion on that page working with your partner," Snape gave his instructions and then walked back over to his desk and sat down.
"How did you get away with that?" Hermione asked Draco as she began the potion.
"Easy, because I'm a Malfoy and Snape lets me get away with anything because of that. " Draco said to Hermione as he handed her the ingredients to the potion.
"I see," was all that Hermione could say. She knew very well why Draco got away with everything. It's been that was since first year but she didn't care anymore.
Throughout the rest of potions Hermione and Draco talked and joked around. It went by very quickly to Hermione's surprise. She then looked over to Harry and Ron, they weren't talking to one another. Hermione then took out a piece of parchment and a quill and quickly wrote a note to Harry.
Harry- We need to talk sooner, I can't wait till after classes. Skip lunch, and meet me in the Prefect's Bathroom. Try and bring Ron. I cannot deal with this, he has to listen to me. I'm going mad! -Hermione
She walked out of the classroom with Draco and handed her note to Harry. She then parted from Draco and went on her own to Care Of Magical Creators.
The rest of Hermione's morning classes went by quickly. She found it very hard to concentrate with Ron giving her looks every five seconds. At the end of Transfiguration Hermione rushed up to her common room and dropped off her things leaving a note telling Draco skip lunch and meet her in the prefects bathroom.
She rushed to the Prefects Bathroom and was glad to see Harry and Ron in there.
"I'm glad you decided to show," Hermione said to Ron.
"I didn't come at my own will," Ron said rubbing his head, "Harry hit me over the head with his books and dragged me here," Ron finished speaking and then gave Harry a horrible glare, one that reminder Hermione of Draco. 'They have a lot in common after all' Hermione thought to herself.
"Well I'm still glad that you're here. We need to talk about this Ron," Hermione said as she sat down on the floor next to Harry and across from Ron.
Just as Hermione sat down Draco walked in. Ron jumped up and got his wand out of his pocket.
"Ron! Please!" Hermione yelled at Ron finding herself once again having to jump in front of Draco.
Ron simply sat down mumbling to himself.
"Ron, Draco's changed, please trust me and believe me when I tell you this," Hermione began. "He's not the same mean ferrate he used to be," She said pleading with him to understand.
"Hermione, I j-just don't want to see you get hurt," Ron said while looking down at his shoes. He was too embarrassed to make eye contact with Hermione, or anyone.
"Wea-Ron, I'm not going to hurt Hermione," Draco began. "She's the best thing to ever happen to me, honest. I would be crazy to mess this up." Draco said being completely honest. Not only did Hermione see this but so did Harry.
"Fine, Hermione I'm sorry for overreacting but you have to understand where I was coming from," Ron said. Hermione did understand where Ron was coming from and she felt bad for him. She leaned over and gave Ron a huge hug. She missed him.
The four of them sat and talked all through lunch. To Draco, Harry, and Ron's surprise they all had a lot in common. Hermione wasn't surprised though because she had already realized that. She was so happy that her best friends and her boyfriend where getting through a conversation with out sending each other to the hospital wing. She felt like everything was perfect. She was so happy. Her life was perfect, at least for now.
