Finally Friday rolled around and Hermione walked beside her two friends to Care of Magical Creatures with the always annoying Slytherins. As they approached the grass they noticed that a few people were already there and were talking. Harry and Ron started talking sports and Hermione left them to go talk to Lavender and Parvarti.
"Hey Hermione! Did you hear? There's supposed to be this huge project that's worth our entire grade in both Care of Magical Creatures, and Muggle Studies! It sounds really cool, the only problem is that we have to pair up with them." Lavender looked over her shoulder at the Slytherins.
"How could they take something so exciting and make it so wrong and horrid? I don't like any of them, but if they pair me with Malfoy or Parkinson I swear I'll scream." Hermione glared at them.
"I don't think I'd mind working with Malfoy too much. He's hot now! Look at him. Blond hair, silverish eyes, and the body of a god. I think I could deal with his little attitude problem." Parvarti grinned.
"I don't think he's hot. Oh how I hate him. If I get stuck with him I'll just die." Hermione sighed.
"Sorry everyone. I had a bit of a problem with me dog. Now then, I'm sure ye all know 'bout yer project. This is werth yer whole grade in two classes. So, this animal isn't a complete magical creature. A cross breed if you will." Hagrid joined the students.
"Don't tell me that we have to touch some slimy muggle animal!" Pansy shrieked in horror and disgust.
"What we have ere is a dog, but not just any ol dog. This ere is part werepup part Rottweiler." Hagrid beamed.
"How cute! I just adore Rottweilers. My cousin has one." Hermione smiled.
"Ok, now I really don't want to do this." Pansy glared.
"You can shut that trap of yours any time now." Hermione turned and snapped back at the little snob.
"Calm down now childern. We 'ave a lot to discuss." Hargid stated.
He talked for another half an hour. What was happening was pairing up tow people. One from each house, and together they would raise a puppy. They had to see what it was like. How was it different and similar to a rottweiler and a werepup? How fast did it grow? What things made it behave differently? This was the basic idea of the project. It would last for three months.
"Now that ye all got the concept, let's pair up. 'Arry and Pansy." Hagrid looked around. Both Harry and Pansy glared at each other in disgust.
"Ron and Crabbe."
"Seamus and goyle"
"Bullstrode and Lavender."
"Draco and Hermione."
After hearing her own name Hermione froze. Her brain was no longer able to process anything that was happening at the moment. She was still coming to terms with the fact that she was partners with Malfoy!
"Ok granger. If I have to work with you let's just get one thing straight. You do the work, and I'll get the grade. Got it." Malfoy sneered as he approached her.
"How about no. I'm not taking your crap Malfoy. As much as I hate you and don't want to be within a hundred yards of you, I am working on this with you. I am not doing a damn thing all by myself. You will help me and that is final!" she turned and snapped at him.
At that moment all heads turned their way. Hermione looked slightly embarrassed and yet she didn't budge and kept a glare at him. He wanted to say something back, but wouldn't dare. When she was in a mood, it was no use arguing with her. She would win, and he couldn't afford to be embarrassed anymore.
"Well now, I want ye each to decide who will take care of it and for how long. Ye should each get tergether at least once a week, but I would recommend more. Also ye must take 'em everywhere ya go. They sleep in ye room, and I know you probably don't want 'em in ye beds, so make one up for 'em, and we'll discuss more next week. You will receive 'em on Monday." Hagrid explained and excused the class.
A/N: So, watcha think? Review please. I meant to get this up the day after I posted the first chapter, but I had four tests to study for. I'll try to get chapter three up tomorrow. Review please.
