It all began with a dare

Chap 2 - First day back

The Feast and Sorting Ceremony was on, but some how Draco did not feel like attending it, he slipped away from the Great Hall and started walking up the stairs leading to the Slytherin Tower. He needed to get away for the crowds. He mumbled the password 'Elephant dug' and walked into the common room and sat down at a couch.

"Malfoy!" he heard a voice out side the portrait, it belonged to a girl. It must be Parkinson, waiting to annoy the hell out of him, but if it was her, she would know the password. Reluctantly he walked up and opened the door.

And came face to face with Hermione Granger

"What do you want Mudblood?" he hissed at her with great loathing.

"Professor Dumbledore told me to find you, because you were not at the feast so you probably did not hear the announcements," she said coldly, not meting his gaze.

"What's so important that the Professor would send his precious little teacher pet to tell me huh?" he smirked

"You were chosen to be the new Slytherin Prefect and you are to meet the Professor at his office tomorrow at 12.30 along with the other prefects from the other houses," She said, 'Seriously, I can't believe why they would choose you? Probably all the rest of the Slytherins were blabbing idiots like Crabbe and Goyle!"

"So whose are the prefects from the loser Gryffindor?" He asked, ignoring her insulting comment.

"Why would you care?" Hermione replied with a hint of curiosity

Really why would I care? Draco thought to himself.

"The prefect from Gryffindor is me, Malfoy," she said before turning around and walking off.

(During Potions)

"Today we will be making a Flinterwinkle Potion that allows you to temporarily look like you partner, you will work in pairs which I will assign," said Snape with his usual slimy look. "Potter with Goyle, Weasley with Parkinson, Brown with Crabbe, Granger with Malfoy."

Hermione moved to where Draco was sitting and started gathering up her ingredients. Crabbe and Goyle gave Draco a look, reminding him of the Dare he took.

"So Granger, this potion we're making, it's going to make me look like you huh?"

"Yeah, but only for a couple of minutes, its like the polyjuice potion but without the complete."

"What ever Granger, don't need to sound like a stuck up know-it-all.' He interrupted.

Hermione blushed with anger but said nothing, just kept cutting up her Slanderbarks.

"Ouch! Stupid." she cried, holding up her finger, which was bleeding badly from the cut.

"Are you alright Hermione?" asked Draco, with a trace of concern upon his pale face.

"He just called me by my first name!" thought Hermione
