~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sunlight flitted through the drapes, flooding into the dorm belonging to the Head Girl, and arousing the slumbering lump on the bed, Hermione Granger. A groan was issued from within the thick red satin sheets before Hermione sat up, chasing any signs of sleepiness from her amber eyes. She stared around at her surroundings.
'Such a lovely room... I'm glad to be able to stay here for the year, truly something...'
A lovely room indeed. Spacious and donned in Gryffindor colours, the room consisted of a large mahogany desk situated next to the window, with the queen sized bed on an adjacent wall, and a cupboard, vanity desk, and bookcase with a matching victorian style couch elsewhere, it was hard not to like this room at all.
Hermione climbed out of bed, stepping on thick scarlet carpet, she crossed the room, gathered her bathroom neccessities, and headed out to the common room, and into the bathroom. There would be no fighting over bathrooms today, and Hermione knew exactly why.
'For one thing, this bathroom is for the Heads only. For another? Well... There is no Head Boy.'
Head Boy had originally been Draco Malfoy. But after his suprising and unexpected death, which not many Hogwarts students knew about, Professor Dumbledore had to delay the announcement of the heads, and inform the substitute Head Boy of his new position. Actual Head Boy.
'And thats the reason I was off looking for that common room by myself till midnight.' A bitter look made its way onto her face.
'And thats when... When I discovered him!'
Hermione smiled. She remembered very well of her encounter with the dragon boy. He was mysterious, cold, yet all the same, amusing. Was he a star? Maybe, she couldn't know. She couldn't believe him. Something as ridiculous as that, who would? But if he could turn into a dragon, then being a star is possible. Hermione's smile grew larger.
'He was sooooo beautiful! He looks like Draco, but is he? I don't know...'
Hermione stepped out of the shower, dressed, exited the bathroom, collected her books and headed out to the Great Hall with a large stack of everyones timetables.
She didn't know what happened after her encounter. Yes, of course she 'remembered very well', but the parts after he turned into a dragon, then did everything become blurry. She couldn't ever remember going into her dorm, how she got there, or any other facts.
Hermione was greeted by the excited chatter of students as she entered the Great Hall. Spotting Harry and Ron, she walked over and they greeted their 'Good Morning's.
"Hermione? What are those?"
Harry stared at the stack of papers.
"What? Oh, these! They're timetables! Care to help me hand them out?"
And with that, the Golden Trio seperated, handing out timetables with Ron looking very put out about not being able to eat the most important meal of the day in peace.
Hermione wandered over to Gryffindor table as Dumbledore stood up to make an announcement and all chatter ceased.
"Goodmorning, I hope you are well?"
Dumbledore's sparkling sapphire blue eyes peered at them over his half moon spectacles.
"I, and many of the teachers have been asked about our Head Boy and Girl of this year. Your answer is, Terry Boot of Ravenclaw and Hermione Granger of Gryffindor. The delay of this message has been caused by a shocking event. It is very unfortunate, I must say, that if any of you have read the Daily Prophet, you will have been informed of the recent murder of Draco Malfoy, the former Head Boy of this year."
Murmers broke out across the room.
"Malfoy dead? But why?"
"Dracie Poo! I miss him so much!"
"Serves him right, that arrogant idiot!"
"Students!" Dumbledore called over the comments.
"I am afraid that is so. As this soul leaves Hogwarts, we must grieve for the loss of a fine young man."
Dumbledore waved his wand and any colourful banners were turned to black, giving off a cold and mournful feeling.
"Many you of think of him as someone arrogant, someone hard to put up with. Yes, but Draco Malfoy had a reason, as we all do to cause such behaviour. Draco Malfoy's life, was ruled ruthlessly by his father and Voldemort." Most of the room winced at the Dark Lords name. "Draco Malfoy was taught to hate muggleborns, was taught to be cruel to those of lower status, was taught to be evil. But a pure heart cannot turn evil, and Draco Malfoy had a heart filled with good. In truth, he is someone we must respect. Yes, he was cruel, but for a reason. His mind was corrupted. But his heart was not. A pure heart can overcome an evil mind. A hard task, but he could overcome it. You must realise he was meant to be a spy for Voldemort, but he did not give away any information. True sources tell me that he was meant to kill, to hurt, to spy, and Draco Malfoy did none of that. Magic and physical abuse was inflicted on him, yet he was still strong. The wall of strength around his heart still stood, protecting him from being corrupted. Someone with a pure heart, who did what he could to overcome his corrupted mind, to live through whatever was thrown at him, to have courage not to betray Light, is someone great. Remember him. Respect him. Accept Draco Malfoy."
Ending on this grave note, Dumbledore took his seat somberely while the students of Hogwarts stared at each other in silence. Hermione stared at all the students, then, making a decision, she stood up tall and waited till she had everyones attention.
"Even though Draco Malfoy was cruel to most of us, you must see that he really wasn't evil. Having been his partner in potions, we brewed Veritaserum, a powerful truth potion together, and tested it on each other. Through this method, I found out the truth. It is time to tell you all what I have learned from him.
"Draco Malfoy, son of a notorius deatheater, was not evil. He was not on the side of Evil. He wanted nothing to do with Evil. His deatheater initiation was to be held on the 25th of December this year, Christmas Day, when no one would notice his absence. But Malfoy wanted nothing to do with Voldemort. He wanted no mark to burn into his skin. All he wanted, was to have a normal life like the rest of us. I discovered that Malfoy was to let deatheaters into Hogwarts, to give them entrance. But he disobeyed their orders. He is not loyal to Voldemort. He is brave as to go against Voldemorts wishes. He had courage to stop his own father, and the Dark Lord from killing us all. I am telling no lies, he tells no lies. You should be greatful to him. Be greatful to Draco Malfoy. And, that is why, I think we should give a final note to him."
She stared pointedly around the Great Hall, beckoning students with her unmoving eyes to stand up. And stand up they did. They all thought the whole idea over, and had agreed with their Headmaster and Head Girl, that Draco Malfoy was indeed someone to thank. Any doubts were pushed away when they heard of Draco Malfoy refusing to give entrance to the deatheaters.
And with Hermione's final note, everyone murmered softly:
"Remember, respect, and accept Draco Malfoy."

Ok, I know I know. Short chappy, kill me! I'm sorry really am, but I couldn't like... you know... uh... make it longer... cause... yea...
But I hope its better than last chappies by somewhat, cause of the style of writing had changed. Sorry if you don't like it, but I reckoned I like this style of writing is better for me! And it kind of has more writing in it. More for you to read! Ok, so I'm rambling now.
