Chapter 9: Back to School
Harry spent a few dull days with the Dursleys. They pretty much ignored him, and Harry wasn't complaining. Hermione and Ron apparated into Harry's room the night before they were due to catch the Hogwarts train.
"Hey! What are you guys doing here?" Harry asked them grinning.
"Well, we thought we'd visit you before we go back to Hogwarts. And Hermione won't help me with that Charms questionnaire," Ron mumbled.
"Helping does not include the phrase 'Can I see your answers Hermione?'" she practically shrieked.
"Shhh!" Harry said placing a hand over her mouth. In the next room Harry heard his uncle give a great snort.
"Sorry," Hermione whispered.
"Well, I'm glad you guys came. It's been hell staying here. I had almost forgotten how boring these people are," Harry whispered. "By the way, does you mum know you're here Ron?" Harry asked eyeing him.
"Well, not really. She's in bed anyway," Ron told him sheepishly.
"You know you're dead if she finds out you're here this late," Harry said smiling at them.
"Yeah, that's what I told him over and over again but he wouldn't listen," Hermione whispered harshly.
They sat on Harry's bed and completed the Charms questionnaire by wand light. At four in the morning all three of their eyes were drooping and it was looking like the other two might stay in Harry's room if they didn't leave now.
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow mate," Ron said with a large yawn.
"Technically its today so we'll see him in a few hours," Hermione whispered softly.
"Hermione, some of us can't think this early in the morning," Ron said exasperatedly. They bid their goodbyes and left. Harry sank into his bed and immediately fell asleep.
The next morning, the trio could be found sitting in a train compartment along with Neville and Ginny. Ginny had put on a little make up, which was a bit unusual and kept sneaking glances at Harry. Harry being thick when it came to women didn't notice a thing.
"Hey Hermione. We have to go up to the front carriage now. McGonagall wants to talk to us." Blaise was standing at the door already dressed in his robes.
'Boy does he look good,' Hermione thought. "Oh, ok. Go ahead. I'll just put on my robes and meet you there," she told him.
"Ok," he said before leaving the room. Even though Hermione was on speaking terms with him, didn't mean the others were.
"I don't know how you can be nice to him," Ron told her.
"Why? He never did or said anything wrong to me before," Hermione said.
"Yeah, he only laughed whenever Malfoy insulted you," Harry said.
"People can change," Hermione said waspishly before leaving the room.
"Yeah, except Slytherin's" Ron yelled after her.
Hermione walked furiously down the corridor and was nearly at the first compartment when a tall person stepped in front of her.
"What do you want Malfoy? I'm late as it is," Hermione said craning her neck to look at him.
"Well, there are a lot of things I want Granger, none of which you can give, or perform, adequately," he said with a sly smirk. "Oh, there is one thing, you could. jump of the train. It would make the world a better place," he taunted her.
"One more comment like that Malfoy, and I'll put you in detention. I think you forget that I have that power, and you well. don't," Hermione said simply. She pushed past him grinning at his surprised face.
"Ah Miss Granger. You finally decided to join us," McGonagall said as she stepped into the compartment.
"Sorry Professor. There was a bit of a. hold up," Hermione said taking a seat opposite Blaise.
"Well now that you're here I'm going to discuss your roles as Head Boy and Girl. Firstly, I would like to congratulate you both on making this position. Secondly, here is a timetable of your duties and when you are to fulfil them. Now, because you have so much to deal with this year, you will each get a separate room connected to a shared common room, which will be more than big enough for the both of you. There is a special door leading to the library and the room is located fairly close to the Great Hall. Now there is a map on the back of your timetables that should lead you to your room. Do you have any questions?" she asked them.
They both shook their heads. "Good. Then I expect to see you again in the Great Hall. Oh, and you are in charge of seeing people safely onto the carriages once we arrive. There will be a separate carriage waiting for you two once all the others have left." With that she left the room through another door leaving Blaise and Hermione in the compartment.
"Well, I guess I'll see you at the station then," Blaise said after an awkward pause.
"Yeah, Hermione breathed. They left the room together, Blaise heading into a compartment not far from the first and Hermione heading down to the back.
Hermione say Malfoy scowling in the one Blaise entered and saw him glare at her. She grinned and hurried to her own compartment.
"Gee's you look happy Hermione," Ginny said.
"Yeah, I know. I just realised that I have the power to not only dock points of Malfoy if he insults me, but also land him in detention," she said triumphantly.
"This year is going to be a whole lot better that I thought," Ron said with a satisfied smile that turned into a huge grin when his girlfriend stepped into the cabin.
"Hey everyone", she said grinning like the rest of them.
A/N: I'm so happy! I got this done so quickly!!! I hope this was a bit more interesting. It will definitely pick up in the next couple of chapters! Ooh, I almost forgot. If there is anyone that would like to proof read my story before I post it and make sure that it sounds good, please tell me in your review! I would prefer people who check their email regularly. Thanx for all your outstanding reviews. And I'm taking everything you say into consideration, even thought there are no personal notes.
