Chapter 2
"Well, well, well, who do we have here. Granger, Potter and Weasleys." The person speaking was no other than Draco Malfoy. He turned towards Cal and said in a mocking voice:
"Draco Malfoy, the Head Boy. You are the new student from Durmstrang I presume? Yes, my father told me that you would be joining us this year. "
He looked at Harry and his friends and smirked.
"You should choose your company more carefully, you don't want to end up being stuck with such filth for the rest of you school year." Draco finished and offered Cal his hand.
Cal, on the other hand, refused Draco's hand and answered in a low voice:
"I wouldn't dare to choose wrong company. Harry told me all about you."
"It looks like the history is repeating itself." Harry started to laugh, referring to their first year when Draco tried to befriend with him the same way.
Draco looked at Harry in a disgusted face, and said:
"Whatever Potter," he turned to Hermione, "by the way Granger, meeting in Dumbledore's office at nine tonight. Make sure you won't forget. I won't be doing any explaining on your behalf." Hermione answered in her 'all-knowing' voice:
"Unlike you Malfoy, I have a brain instead an empty space which apparently lies between you ears." Cal, Harry, Ron and Ginny started to giggle. Hermione wasn't so touchy anymore. Summer in New York had thought her how to treat people like Malfoy.
"Ouch Mione, give Malfoy a break, he is not used to the new you," said Ron, crouched in laughter.
"Mudblood,' Draco hissed and walked away his sidekicks Grabbe and Goyle tangling behind him.
"Well, that was rather unpleasant surprise to see Malfoy here.I had my hopes up that Hermione's SPEW would lead the houselves into attempted revolution against Malfoy and he would end up as a shoe polisher or something." Ron was interrupted by furious Hermione:
"Ron, haven't you listened at all? SPEW doesn't organize revolutions, it." she stopped as she saw all her friends laughing. Between chuckles Harry apologized to Cal:
"Sorry, but Hermione is still trying to free every single houself there is, even after the big food fight that she organized for protest." Harry had stopped laughing and looked at Hermione's angry face and continued in amused voice:
"I still don't get what did she do with those houselves? I mean, they don't actually want to be freed you know. Oh well.yeah." Hermione knew that she couldn't stay angry at her friends for long so she simply suggested to leave the platform and catch a carriage. The four house tables set in the Great Hall were chatting endlessly. And facing them all, was the teacher table where the professors and the Headmaster were looking over all the students enjoying themselves.
"Pass me the spinach croissant please," said Harry to Hermione. She got the plate and gave it to Harry,
"Here you are," she said politely.
"Thanks!"
"So, Harry," started Ron, his mouth full of pumpkin pie, "did they put up the class list for Muggle Theory yet?"
"I think Dumbledore will announce it later," said Harry, taking no real interest in the subject and continued eating. Hermione, who wasn't following the conversation, was slowly eating her steak. Between mouthfuls she was thinking about her Head Girl duties.
"Working with Malfoy," she muttered, "great! This year is surely going to be great!" she frowned and poured herself more pumpkin juice.
"Sorry? Did you say anything?" Asked Ginny, who was sitting opposite to Hermione.
"No Ginny. I didn't, " but to herself she thought, 'staying calm is the key to survival when working with Malfoy.' She stood up and said:
"I'm tired, so I will be in my room, if anyone needs me," then she turned to Ginny, "let me know in which house Cal is sorted, ok!" She winked and left the Great Hall. All that time she was followed by a pair of gray eyes.
"Great, I have to work with that mudblood. Though I have to admit that she looks much better now." He smirked evilly to himself. "Hermione, you missed Dumbledore's announcement about Muggle Theory classes." Harry informed her when he, Ron and Ginny arrived back from dinner, which had passed almost uneventfully after Hermione had left.
"Oh, did he announce the names who will be taking MT?" She asked more out of politeness ,as Head Girl was automatically added to the list. Harry seemed amused as he continued.
"Well, I have good news and bad news, which do you want first?"
"Umm.bad I guess," Hermione answered.
"As Malfoy is the Head Boy he is taking MT as well." Saying that, Harry's face was clouded but it lightened up as he continued:
"But it was worth it. You can't imagine how angry he was when Dumbledore announced it aloud. Malfoy of course knew that he has to take MT in order to pass his NEWTS, but having Dumbledore saying it in front of Slytherins, and well, the rest of the school? Boy that must have been embarrassing ," Harry started to laugh again.
"Good for Malfoy," said Hermione sarcastically, "can you imagine Malfoy touching a phone, or sending an e-mail? He would probably think that the computer had been invaded by weird creatures." She also started to laugh, "Imagine, the computer has a pop-up message 'You got Mail', Malfoy freaks out and tries to perform Avada Kedavra on the computer." Harry and Hermione cracked down with laughter. Ron watched them with a scared face.
"So they are dangerous?" He asked cowardly. Harry fell down, his stomach hurting with laughter, as he tried to catch his breath. Hermione calmed Ron down.
"Yeah Ron the computer monsters jump out and eat anyone with red hair," Hermione said sarcastically. Ginny gasped.
"Really?" Hermione started to laugh again.
"I was being sarcastic"
"Oh!" Said Ron.
"I knew that," Ginny said in relief. Hermione glanced at her watch and ran out of the portrait hole yelling:
"I'm late for the meeting with Dumbledore." "Sit down please, I have a perfectly brilliant idea for this year," Dumbledore announced happily when both Hermione and Draco had seated themselves across the table from him. Dumbledore looked very forward to this school year. Having Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy as Head Girl and Head Boy, promised to bring up some interesting situations around the school. He wasn't sure how these two are going to interact, but he was pretty sure that the results will be satisfactory, as both Hermione and Draco were determined to live up to everybody's expectations, though probably in quite different ways. Dumbledore continued:
"Well, as all year 7 students are going to take their NEWT's at the end of the year, Professor MacGonagall and I thought that it would be nice to organize a Senior Formal."
"Will it be our choice what the program of the evening includes?" Asked Hermione. She had missed a bored glare from Draco which was clearly supposed to indicate the fact that he had better things to do than sit in the old fool Dumbledore's office and listen how that mudblood filth is getting excited over a stupid party.
"Yes," Dumbledore nodded, "the whole Formal is for you to plan." Draco decided to let Granger take charge of arranging the Formal so he would not be bothered to fit it in to his very busy schedule, which probably consisted only of lying around and enjoying the advantages of being the Head Boy. This next statement from Dumbledore brought his ideas down with a deafening crash.
"I do have to inform you that it is a long tradition in Hogwarts for the Head Girl and Head Boy to go together and also set an example for the dance competition," he added with a chuckle, when seeing the expressions of both of their faces.
"WHAT?" Hermione exclaimed in desperation, hoping she had heard Dumbledore wrong and throwing very disgusted look at Draco. He didn't say anything just sat there with a maliciously revolting look in his eyes, as if he was just asked to marry the Giant Squid.
"Yes Ms. Granger. Do you have any objections?" Asked Dumbledore kindly, looking at her with a twinkle in his eyes.
"I.no, I guess not," said Hermione weakly.
"Good," said Dumbledore brightly, "then you are dismissed," he added and Hermione and Draco started to make their way to the door.
" Oh, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime," Dumbledore stated as they walked out of the door, closing it behind them.
They stood blankly behind Dumbledore's door, stunned. The spiral staircase started moving and at the landing they stepped off and watched as the stone Gargoyle guarding the entrance took his place, firmly stopping any intruders getting in. Hermione stood for a moment and then started:
"Well-- " but she was cut off.
"Out of my way mudblood," Malfoy pushed her aside and disappeared behind the corner. Hermione sent him with a evil glare before making her own way towards the Gryffindor Tower.
