A/N: First of let me thank my wonderful reviewers! You are fantastic I
swear; see the notes at the bottom of this story. Although I won't get
thank everyone, but don't feel unloved! Also sorry if it's a little short,
I've had this in works for a while and it began to piss me off, so I posted
it. (Spelling and grammar sux! I know!!!!!!) Also I have had a hard time
writing this, truthfully I could never see Ron and Harry turning on
Hermione. That is what makes it hard and that I have ideas how to work it,
but I just can't bring myself to write! And to point out, this was posted I
think before OOTP came out, so that's why Harry's Prefect instead of Ron.
To late to change it, so that's how it stays! ^__^
So now to the story!

Chapter five: The bet
Draco and Harry smirked at Ron's comment, but then Ron added,
"To make it even better Malfoy, you've gotta hang with her until this time next week."
"You've got it Weasley," Malfoy said and held out his hand. Ron shook it.
"And to make sure you don't ahhh... get yourself out of it...sign this, which is jinxed," Harry added smirking.
"Jinxed?" muttered Malfoy, "What will happen..."
"You don't want to know," Harry said.
"Fine!" exclaimed Draco and signed.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermione didn't have a care in the world. She had found a new strength. But where had it come from? She had no idea...maybe that bath she had. Or the fact that she so sick of the 'new golden trio' annoying her. She didn't have to put up with it, no not at all. She was a witch after all...a very powerful one. Hermione knew she was a powerful witch and secretly loved it. But she never had the heart to use the magic on others, even if they horrible to her. It was even harder when it came to Ron and Harry...her Best friends. Deep down Hermione missed them so much. Damn Ron, stuffed it all up. At least Ginny was still nice to her, that annoyed Ron a lot. But Ginny didn't care what Ron said to her, he was an annoying person. Harsh words coming from his sister. But Ginny didn't like Ron; he had turned his back on Hermione. His Best friend, a loyal friend who would have helped him so much and in fact did pull him out of a few tight spots. As for Harry, Ginny couldn't even speak to him.
Hermione got up to leave...she didn't she see Malfoy excuse himself from his new friends.
It was a student free day, meaning Hermione could enjoy herself. She had decided to go out on the grounds and have a nice peaceful walk. Looking out at the Hogwarts grounds, there were 1st and 2nd years playing tag. Hermione thought back to her 1st year. How great it had been...Ron, Harry. NO stop it mustn't dwell on the past thought Hermione.
Just then a person swept up from behind her and grabbed Hermione's arm.
Her eyes snapped open wide, 'SHIT' she thought.
"Did you know you're a mystery women to all us guys," the person purred.
It was a boy, he had a deep voice. Hermione thought she knew it, but couldn't place it.
She remained silent.
"Yes my dear, we have no idea who you are. Obliviously we do know you because you look like you could be in 6th or 7th year and I know everyone in those two years. (He gave a smirk, which Hermione didn't see)"
Hermione still remained silent; she knew that voice...but where?
"So what is your name," he purred again.
"Not your's to know"
His grip on her arm tightened,
"It wasn't a question, it was an order!" he said in a fierce voice.
That's when Hermione knew who it was. He turned Hermione to face him and she glared at him.
"You should know who I am Malfoy," Hermione spat.
"Granger! Shit!" he yelled and stalked off, back to the Great Hall.
Draco stormed into the Great Hall, a few stopped to look.
"What's up Malfoy?" asked Harry.
Malfoy was swearing to himself and then glared at Harry.
"I swear I'm going to kill you Potter!" he exclaimed.
"What? Why?"
"Because you made me sign that stupid thing and now I'm stuck with Granger all week!"
Ron laughed and so did Harry.
"Shut up, it isn't funny!" said Draco.
They kept laughing.
"SHUT UP!"
Draco yelled this so loud that the hall went silent.
"Mr Malfoy how dare you yell such words in the Great Hall, in front of your peers! You are a role leader, Head Boy, you should know better," McGonagall snapped at Draco when she quickly swept down from the Professors table, "10 points from Slytherin!"
Draco groaned; his house was going to kill him.
"That's quite enough Malfoy," snapped McGonagall, "I wouldn't need to take the points away if you had been using your head, Head Boy should know better! Yes, you should now better. Detention!"
Malfoy sat there mouth hanging open; a detention for yelling shut up? Unheard of, he already had 10 points taken. All because he was Head Boy, made him think of giving the title over to Harry.
"And what are you doing in Gryffindors table? You are a Slytherin..."
"Professor, I thought you were all up for houses inter-weaving with each other and that is what we are doing: inter-weaving with a Slytherin," interrupted Harry.
Professor McGonagall turned to Harry.
"Yes, well that is true. But I will need to look it over with Dumbledore first. Now I suggest you two be off, I will be checking if you studied the spell I set yesterday tomorrow. And as for you Malfoy, I want you at your dorm and packing..."
"Why Professor..."
"The Heads Dorm has become open for use again; it seemed to magically shut itself last year. Cho Chang's work I suppose. Off now!"
Harry, Ron and Draco sat up and began walking.
"Wait Potter I have a job for you."
All three stopped, Harry went back.
"Weasley, Malfoy kept moving! Now Potter I wasn't able to catch Miss Granger before she left the Great Hall. Go find her and tell her to start packing, and then help her take her things to my office in 2 hours. Got that?"
Harry looked at his feet.
"Err...yes Professor."
McGonagall left at high speed and Harry went the other way.
"Oi Potter," Malfoy yelled, Harry stopped, "Where you of to?"
"McGonagall's got to a job for me. Fetch Granger and help her with her things."
Ron began to cough, "Lucky you see ya round Harry, Malfoy."
He left up the staircases and Draco went towards the Dungeons then stopped.
"She's out on the grounds if you wanted to know," he said and then was gone.
Harry sighed and set of to the grounds in search of Granger. He looked round for the girl and then found her down at the waters edge reading a book. Quickly he set off.
"Granger," he said roughly as he got there.
* When Draco Malfoy had let go of her and stalked off, Hermione quickly got out of there. Just in case he returned with Harry and Ron; she sat down at her favourite tree and took out a book. She loved the book and soon began unaware of what was happening around her. That was until a rough voice awoke her. Hermione looked and gasped. Harry smirked.
"Don't stress Granger," he muttered, "I'm not here to punish you today.
Even though Hermione heard this, she still was stressing to all hell. What happened to your new confidence, she told herself angrily, that is only for people who you hate.
"What...what do yo...You want?" she squeaked.
"McGonagall sent to me fetch you," he said lazily, "You're moving into the Heads dorm with Malfoy."
There Hermione gasped slightly, Harry ignored this and continued, "McGonagall said to get you and help you with your things. Then take you to her office."
Hermione stared at her feet; Harry was going to help her. Surely Professor McGonagall knew the situation they were now in.
Harry watched his ex-best friend, the girl he had loved since he got over Cho. But really he loved Hermione all through his life at Hogwarts; he just never really knew it. Of cause when Ron said he liked her, Harry backed off. Ron was his mate and he got to Hermione first. Then she rejected Ron and Harry thought he had a chance with her. He was planning to tell her everything, then she went away and Ron began to hate her. Ron twisted everything and due too his loyalty to Ron, he began hating her too. Then came along Malfoy and they became mates, even though they hated each other for years. Deep down he was an alright fellow, but his Father forced him into his image. His death sparked Draco's rejection of his Fathers ways. Ron liked him because of his hate towards Hermione, but Draco's hate and Ron's hate were different. Ron hated her because she rejected him, while Draco just didn't like her. Harry always thought that Draco liked Hermione, but due to the fact she was muggle born and much smarter than him. Harry had hurt Hermione, but never as much as the others and always stopped the others from doing serious harm. And there she stood, in front of him. Scared like a little child and that was when he realised how much they had hurt her.
"Hermione," he said softy, Hermione looked up and was shocked. He was different; Harry didn't have the usual hatred burning behind his eyes. Instead there was the look of her best friend.
"Come on," he said while pulling Hermione to her feet, "We only have two hours."
And they set of towards they Castle and to the common room. People stared as they walked; they all thought Hermione was into her usual punishment.
As they got to the Fat Lady, Harry muttered the password and they both entered. The room was empty, except for Ron and Draco sitting in the corner talking.
"Harry," Ron said, but all eyes were on Hermione who stared her feet, "So good for you to join us. And to bring a little fun!"
"Not today Ron," Harry muttered.
Ron went red in the ears and Draco smirked; he knew Weasley didn't like being told what to do.
"Why Potter, you don't want to spoil the fun would you," he smirked.
"What are you doing here Malfoy? I thought you were packing?" asked Harry]
"I was Potter, but I used a little thing called magic. You see I use this wand here (he pulled out his wand and Harry's hand dove into his pocket pulling out his; Draco smirked), muttered a spell and I was packed."
"Housewives spells Malfoy, wouldn't think you were the type..."
"If you must know Potter, Mother made me learn them when I was 3! Not that I would have a choice," Draco relied heatedly.
Harry smirked, "Better be going, got to a lot of packing to do."
"I'll tell you what, let's get Malfoy preform that spell of his and we can have the rest of the 2 hours...having fun," Ron said slyly.
"Actually I do believe if I was to do it, only Potter and I would enjoy this 'fun' that you say. Or have you forgotten the 2 months worth of dentitions McGonagall put you on, after she found you and that Abbott girl at in the North Tower," Draco said.
Hermione raised her head; Ron had a dentition that was something she hadn't heard. Most likely because last night, Parvati and Lavender, the gossip Queens of Hogwarts were out.
Scowling Ron muttered, "Thanks for reminding me, she'll have my ass if I'm not there." And left. Draco followed saying he was meeting Pansy.
