A/N: First of all the punctuation in this chapter may not be as good as the last because dracohermioneforever88 is on the phone and she is a better editor than me and so since she is not sitting next to me she can't point out all of my mistakes. We would like to thank all of our reviewers you guys are great!! One of you guys asked if this title was because of the song, and yes it is. So on with this chapter, there will be a little more fluff than in the last two.
Disclaimer: this is the disclaimer for the whole story, we don't own any characters except any that we may make up.
Hermione walked back to her dorm and opened the door to hear 4 room-mates having a very loud discussion.
"What's all the fuss?" Hermione asked curiously
"You" Lavender said
"What are you talking about?" Hermione asked
"You and Draco" Ginny said
"What about Draco and i?" she asked curiously
"You mean you haven't noticed Draco this year?" Parvati asked
"Noticed him how? Like the prick that he is?" Hermione said
"No, Draco is hot this year, haven't you noticed that lately?" they all asked in unison.
"No, not really" Hermione said a look of disgust on her face.
"Your so lucky Hermione, you get to spend so much time with him since your partners and all, and you have detention it'll be more like a date!" Ginny squealed annoyingly. (A/N: Yes Kasey, Ginny is very annoying in this one!)
"I wouldn't call it lucky" Hermione said quirking and eyebrow.
"Oh come on Hermione, you know he's gotten a lot cuter, admit it" Lavender pressed her
"He is not cute! Now if you will excuse me I am going to be!" Hermione said and then she changed into her pajamas and lay in the bed. Hermione pulled up the covers and let a sea of darkness over take her.

Draco's Dormitory
Draco walked tiredly to his common room and sat on the soft, warm, leathery couch when Blaise approached him.
"So Draco" Blaise said
"What do you want Blaise?" Draco asked annoyed
"I want to know how our little bet is going?" he asked
"Not good" Draco replied dryly.
"Well you know you have the perfect opportunity tomorrow, you know in detention" Blaise pointed out.
"Don't remind me" Draco groaned, and got to his feet "I'm going to bed" he told Blaise and went to his dorm and fell asleep.
The morning felt like it came to soon to both Hermione and Draco, the first period bell rang and they all shuffled into Snape's class room. Everyone went to take their seats but Snape stopped them.
"No one take a seat! Go and stand at the front of the room" he instructed, and every student did so but with confused faces.
"Now I want you and your lab partner to stand beside each other" he said, and paused for every one to move. Harry went to stand beside Lavender and Draco came and stood next to Hermione.
"Now look at your partner, that is the very person that you will be sitting next to for the rest of the year!" Snape said "Now take your seats, with your partner" Snape said.
Draco and Hermione took their seats with out looking at each other.
"Do remember that the two of you have detention tonight at 8:00 PM" Snape sneered at the 2 of them.
The rest of the day seemed to go to fast, Hermione didn't want to go to detention. Hermione left at 7:30 to meet Draco in front of the oak doors.
"You ready?" Draco asked coming up behind Hermione.
"Yea I guess" she replied, and they walked to the building outside not to far from Hagrid's hut.
They walked in and saw Hagrid seated at the desk waiting for them.
"Professor Snape, told me that he wants you two to work on your projects for his class" Hagrid said handing them their books and giving Hermione a "I'm sorry" look.
"Now that that's settled I have to go to the forest and chop down trees, I'll be back in about an hour and a half" Hagrid told them.
They opened their books and began to do more research on the emotion potion, they finished writing their essays on it.
"We need microscopes to look at the potion and tell if it's real or not" Draco told Hermione.
"Go look in that closet Hagrid probably keeps them in there" Hermione said, then Draco got up and looked through the closet.
"I don't see them anywhere, why don't you come and give me a hand instead of being lazy!" Draco shouted.
"Alright I'm coming" Hermione said and she went to the closet and walked in, she searched the top shelve and pulled it down.
"I told you one would be in here!" Hermione told him, then the door slammed shut. Draco tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge.
"Great we're locked in, thanks for letting the door shut Granger" Draco sneered at her.
"Why is it my fault?" Hermione asked
"Because you were the last one that came in" Draco said
"So that doesn't mean anything!" Hermione shot back
"Yes it does it means your just a stupid Mudblood" Draco said
"Ok this is getting us no where, are you sure there isn't another way out?" she asked calmly.
"Yes I'm sure! It's a closet!" Draco shouted
"Wait a minute we can use your wand!" Hermione said getting an idea.
"Well what's wrong with your wand?" he asked
"I don't have it with me" she said
"Well I don't have mine either" he told her
"So now what?" Hermione asked sitting on a box
"I don't know. Just wait I guess" Draco said
They just sat there in silence for a while just taking in their surroundings until Hermione broke the silence.
"I'm sorry" Hermione said out of no where
"About what?" Draco asked quirking an eyebrow
"About what I said about your father, I really didn't mean it" Hermione said
"I told you I don't want your apology!" Draco exclaimed
"Why can't you just accept it, I really am sorry" Hermione said
"If I accept it will you leave me alone about it?" Draco asked
"Yes" Hermione replied
"Ok then I accept" he said
"So while we're on the subject why do you hate your father so much?" Hermione asked.
"Do you always go about, putting your nose in other people's business?" Draco asked annoyed.
"Sorry I was just curious" Hermione said then looked down at her feet.
They sat through another awkward silence
"Well since we're going to be in here for a while, why don't we just call a truce?" Hermione suggested.
"Well, ok but just for now" Draco said
"I'm sorry for biting your head off a minute ago, you know when you asked me about my father" Draco said apologetically.
"No I shouldn't have been being so nosy about it" Hermione said
"Well, yea I guess" Draco replied
As the hours went on they started talking and laughing, Draco sat there for a minute with a confused look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Hermione asked
"Nothing, it's just that I haven't had this much fun in a long time" Draco admitted.
"Why not?" she asked
"Well, with my dad and all, he really sucked the fun out of everything" Draco said
"What do you mean?" Hermione asked, glad that he was opening up.
"Well, my dad was always gone, and when he was home he was always mean to me and my mom, I'm glad he's in Azkaban he can't come back anymore" Draco confessed.
"I'm sorry about that, that must have been awful" Hermione said
"Yea it was pretty bad" he told her
"So Draco, wy do we hate each other so much?" Hermione asked
"Wait a minute, you just called me Draco" he said with a questioning look
"So" Hermione said "Just answer my question"
"Well I don't really know why we hate each other, it's Potter that I don't care for" Draco said.
"So then why are we such enemy's?" Hermione asked
"I don't know, maybe we shouldn't be" Draco said his eyes softening.
"So why don't we start by calling each other by our first names?" Hermione suggested.
"That sounds alright to me" Draco agreed
Draco's POV
What am I doing? Why am I being friends with her? Why did I open up to her like that? Well maybe this could work out, maybe we could be friends.
END POV
"Hey Draco" Hermione asked
"Yea Hermione" Draco replied (I love the way he says my name Hermione thought)
"You want go to hogsmead with me this weekend?" Hermione asked
"Yea, sure" Draco replied
'Hmm, this could be fun' Draco thought
All of a sudden the door opened and there stood Hagrid
"What are you two doing in here?" He asked, then Hermione explained what happened.
"Oh well alright, your detention is over you can go back to your dorms now" Hagrid told them.
They walked back to their dorms discussing what had happened in detention then they both separated to go to their houses.
