As they went to enter the Great Hall, Draco and Hermione were separated by Harry and Ron. They begrudgingly agreed when they were reminded of how the Slytherins and Gryffindors would react. After one more lingering look, Draco left Hermione and brushed past Harry into the great hall.

"Oh my poor Drackie," screeched Pansy while putting her hand on his knee. "Having to be near that horrid mudblood, let alone being forced to kiss her against your will." Draco flinched at the word mudblood; he couldn't believe that he had ever used that word to hurt his Hermione. Luckily Pansy took the flinch as disgust and continued to talk in her oh so annoying voice. Pansy, although she still resembled a pug had grown curves that even Brittany Spears would be jealous of. It was sad really, she was the most attractive girl in Slytherin, and probably the slutest girl in the whole school.

"Look Pansy, Dumbledore couldn't do anything about the love potion so, I'm stuck with Hermione and until this dam potion wears off, I'm in love with her and you better not insult her if you know what's good for you, I can't control my actions right now, and the things your saying are really pissing me off," whispered Draco in a menacing way.

Pansy quickly took her hand away, and then turned and started flirting with Crabbe. Draco had heard that tone before, and knew that it would be Crabbe in her bed tonight. He felt pity for Crabbe, who was just as big and stupid as he had always been.

**** Meanwhile at the Gryffindor table

"So, what did Dumbledore say Mione?" asked Ron.

"Well, first he gave us this horrible pink potion so that we could be apart for the lessons we don't have together, and then he started talking about sleeping arrangements."

"What do you mean 'sleeping arrangements'?" asked Harry.

"Well, we'll have to sleep together of course." At this Ron, who had been gulping down his pumpkin juice, did one of those things where you sort of spit it out while doing a double take and end up with a little bit of it up your noise. "Not like that Ron, we'll just being staying in some room that Dumbledore thought of," said Hermione while laughing at the mess that Ron had made of his robes.

"This is terrible Mione; we'll never get to see you with out that stupid git hanging around. He is not a stupid git Harry, he's the love of my life and you're all just so insensitive," Hermione was close to tears as she said this. Ron and Harry sensed some major pms going on.

"What's wrong Mione?" Ginny had just come up to the table, but most of the other Gryffindors had already eaten. Harry and Ron filled Ginny in on every thing that had happened while Hermione regained her composure. Ginny had also become quite beauty and was the most sot after girl in the fifth year. She had shoulder length red hair and had learned how to do her makeup so well that at times you thought that she looked like some sort of goddess.

"Well, that's not so bad," replied Ginny to the story she had just heard.

"Not so bad, not so bad! Were you not listening to a word we said? She thinks she's in love with, with Malfoy," said Ron as he began to turn red with rage.

"Oh come on, he may be Malfoy but he is with out a doubt the hottest guy in all of Hogwarts!" replied Ginny.

"Hey!" said Harry.

"Whoops, I mean the hottest guy in Hogwarts except for Harry, oh and your cute too I guess Ron." Harry and Ginny had begun to go out the summer after Harry's fourth year, once he had gotten Cho out of his system. Ron had begun to look sick again and actually pushed his plate away form him.

"Oh come on Ron, you can't deny the truth," laughed Ginny.

"But I can try can't I and Damn it, I will deny the truth if it has the ability to make my appetite go away," replied Ron with a look of determination on his face.

"He's got you there Gin, not much can take away Ron's appetite," said Harry. Ginny smacked him lightly on the back of his head and then gave him a quick kiss . "Well, I've got to go; Snape gave us loads of potions homework for tonight." Said Ginny, and then she ran off.

"Snape, hey what happened to him, he never came out of Dumbledore's office?" asked Harry.

"Oh, Dumbledore wanted to talk to him after we left," replied Hermione.

"Maybe he got sacked," said Ron with an evil glint in his eye, and the sort of grin Fred and George would get after thinking up a new trick to play on some poor innocent victim.
