Hermione's POV

I sat curled up on the silvery green couch in the HQs, reading a book. . . well, at least trying to. I couldn't help thinking about the beautiful black leather book that I had found on the train today.

The book wasn't exactly beautiful in the sense that it had pretty designs or precious gems studded on it, more a SENSE of beauty, that was mysterious, as if it held ultimate secrets. It probably did, the way it was locked up so tightly.

Just then, Malfoy walked in the room out of the bathroom with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. He looked extremely frantic.

"Granger, have you seen my dia - copy of '180 Things You Never Knew About Dragons'? It's really rare, there's only three copies of it in the entire world. I don't want to lose it, but apparently I have already. And the facts in there are well kept secrets, so only about 1 out of 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 0,000,000 people know ONE of the facts in there," he asked, frustratedly.

"No, I don't think I have," I replied, with my mind still on the black book I found today.

"Well, if you see it, you'll know what it is by the silvery green dragon on the front. Tell me if you find it, please!" Malfoy's voice had a lot of pleading in it. That book must be the only thing he cares for in this world.

"Yeah, sure, whatever."

Malfoy obviously saw that I was preoccupied with something, so he turned around and was about to leave the room, when he had to add one last comment. " Oh, Granger? Why is it that you're sitting on the Slytherin couch?"

I looked down and sure enough I was sitting on the Slytherin couch!

"Bit preoccupied, aren't we now?" He added that comment, and with a smirk, swept out of the room.

Draco's POV

I really needed my diary! What I said to Granger was true, because the front part of my diary tells you about '180 Things You Never Knew About Dragons.' My diary is extremely important to me. It records all of my feelings and thoughts, since I could ever write. Plus it has really important conversations between Lazoroth and me.

Right now I'm listening to Can't Stop by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and reading The Amber Spyglass, the third part of the His Dark Materials series. I would love to have a daemon myself.

You might want a description of my room. It's traditional Slytherin silver and green, and quite big and comfy. It's decorated with pictures - every inch of the walls. Pictures of mostly Lazoroth with all his friends and relatives, people I admire like Johnny Depp - he's such a great actor, and characters from books, tv shows, anime and manga.

There is a surround sound system, so I don't have to use my CD player in my room.

The bed is big and fluffy. I like the room. A lot.

What I forgot to mention is that I also had pictures of my closest relatives. Like my mother and most suprising of all - Sirius Black. Sirius was my friend, my confidante, and he taught me about all those possibilities if you're not so close-minded. He opened the door, and I thank him for that, even though he's dead. I mourned his death with all the rest of his companions.

Sometimes. . . . I just wish the world would go right, no evil, no racism, nothing like that. I wish there was no money or things to brag about. I wish that everyone lived to be happy and contented, and there were no problems in the world. I wish that Sirius Black was still alive.

Sometimes. . . . I wish that I could die and just go to the place where everything is right. And hey, I might even get to see Sirius again if that happened.

Hey everybody! I am so sorry that this is so short and it took so long to update. Nearly a month! I promise chapter 3 won't be half as long coming. In fact - I'm working on it already! I'd like to say thanks to my 8 reviewers! Please tell me if you see any errors of any kind. I'd love some suggestions, I mean more about how you want the story to end. I've got everything except the end plotted out already! Well anyways, thank you all my reviewers, and until next time! P.S. I know you're all dying to find who/what Lazoroth is!!!( grins evilly

Dark Queen of Roses: Sorry about not updating!( Thanks for being my first reviewer!

Daintress: Thank you for your comments. Draco isn't a jerk because he's completely transformed over the summer. And I thought your 'Lucius Got Run Over By A Snorkack' was hilarious. I sang the chorus to all my friends!

Ebony River: Not a very original story line YET. A good pairing, yes. I thought of a story and there's some stuff that I thought of that would give it that classic twist that sets some of these fics apart. And thank you for informing me about my spelling error.

elf-in-wonderland: I like your suggestion. I think I'll take it. But it probably won't be happening until further in the story.

potts: Thank you!

Amadea: Thank you!!!

Rebecca89:Thank you! And why do you need me to review your fic? It's got over 400! Well, I reviewed for every chapter!
