So. here's the next chapter.
Hermione's POV
I sighed. Waiting on the Hogwarts train platform with Malfoy was NOT fun. I didn't get my coffee this morning so now I had a huge headache. Neither was rushing around last night trying to pack six months of clothes in two suitcases. I knew the shrinking charm, but still, do you fully expect it to fit together that easily? The bright side was that at least Ginny taught me her Bat Bogey Hex to jinx Malfoy in case he turned out to be too bloody annoying, and I did master it quite well, if I say so myself. Suddenly someone interrupted my train of thought.
"Hey Mudblood, what so deep in thought about?" Malfoy asked me.
I turned to him. My eyes blazing with fury. I don't know, maybe it was from the hectic schedule or from my lack of caffeine, but all of a sudden I exploded. "God, do you have absolutely NOTHING better to do than to call me names!?" I asked him. "You are such an inconceivable prat! Can't you just give it a rest for ONCE??" I spat at him. He looked surprised for a moment, taken aback. Then he said, "No, why would I, since you're so easy to annoy?" He said smiling devilishly at me. I had half a mind to curse him all the way to the Yukon, but I was not that immature. Instead, I just ignored him until the train came.
Draco's POV
The train whistled and I looked up. I had been thinking about Granger again. If father could do legilimency, I would probably be packed up in my coffin by now. She looked pretty with her cheeks flushed from yelling at me. I knew I was being rather annoying, but was taken rather by surprise when she exploded. I ran a hand through my silvery blonde hair as we got onto the train. I was so used to these little thoughts about Granger, that I just ignored them. We were told that we had to stay together in one compartment. "Great." I thought as I had heard this. "Just what I need. An annoying stuck up Gryffindor with little mudblood germs." But now, as I looked at her, I thought differently.
As soon as we got seated, the conductor came to gather our tickets, and left. Granger was staring wistfully out the window. "She probably misses her two boyfriends." I thought nastily. I don't know what came over me, maybe because I was half asleep, since they told me to wake up at an ungodly hour but I think I actually made a truce with her that day.
"Hey Granger."
Hermione's POV
"Hey Granger." I heard. I looked up from the window I was staring at and looked at Malfoy. I was surprised for a moment when I looked into his gray eyes. They were no longer hard or guarded. Actually, to tell you the truth they looked sleepy.
"Look, Hermione, ("Whoa, did he actually call me by my first name???" I asked myself.) to make this trip a little easier, why don't we make a truce. I mean, I don't want to waste all my energy fighting with you for the next six months, okay? And this counts for my grade, and it's kind of hard for me to study if you keep on glaring at me." He said, seriously.
I was a kinda shocked for a second. or minute. Until I heard him say, "Hello?" did I snap out of paralyzed stance. I slowly regained my speech back and answered. "Malfoy, that would be great, only if you weren't lying."
He sighed. "Look, I'm trying to make a truce here. White flag raised, okay? I mean it." he said.
I looked at his face and he actually looked sincere. "Okay." I reluctantly agreed, still wondering what kind of trap he was leading me into. His face relaxed and he leaned back into the plush seats. Trying to figure out where that all came from, I got a book out, Hogwarts, a History and started reading. Not surprising.
Draco's POV
I watched her from my side of the compatment. She was reading intently. I glanced at the cover, which said, Hogwarts, a History. "Why am I not surprised?" I asked myself. Suddenly I realized I felt VERY sleepy. Without at least eight hours of sleep, I could drop dead from exhaustion. Without realizing it, my eyelids started to droop down and I drifted into a dreamless nap..
A Few Hours Later
"Malfoy, Malfoy." I heard a faraway faint voice cry. Someone was shaking my arm. I jolted awake, and saw Hermione. "Sorry to interrupt your nap, but we're here." She told me.
"Oh, thanks." I told her.
"Your welcome, Malfoy." She replied.
"It's Draco." I said. "We have a truce. No surnames, okay?"
"Umm. okay." She looked at me strangely. I couldn't blame her. I was scaring myself with the whole truce thing too.
Hermione's POV
We got off the train platform, and stepped out onto the city sidewalk. "Draco, can you go hail a cab?" I asked him. He looked at me strangely. "Go hail a whaa..? He asked me unknowingly. Then it clicked. Of course! Draco's a pureblood, she rolled her eyes at this, and doesn't even know what a McDonald's is! "Poor him." She thought. "Never eaten one of their french fries." She added pityingly.
Well, in the end, Hermione hailed the cab, payed the bill, and read the directions. Actually, she did pretty much everything. As they stepped up in front of their house to be, she gasped.
