Chapter Nine
A Second Makeover
Hermione had to admit, she always thought Millicent, Blaise and Pansy were complete bitches. In the course of four hours on the train she found out that they were only half bitches. She saw them in a new light. She didn't know why, but she felt as if she could trust them. Which was really strange considering they were Slytherins and used to be her enemies. She found out that these three girls had a sort of nice side to them.
She used to think that Millicent was nothing but big, beefy and insensitive. But she was wrong. Though Millicent really was a bit on the big and beefy side, she was still considered to be a bit pretty. She had wavy, dark brown hair and green eyes. Her skin had a medium tone that was tanned. Millicent was sort of a tough girl but even though she didn't show it much, she did have a sensitive side and was a bit nice. Which was a strange thought because in their second year, she nearly strangled Hermione.
Out of the three, Blaise was the beauty. She had straight, black hair with hazel eyes. She had porcelain skin with high cheekbones. The contrast between her hair and skin were dramatic but very striking. She had a bitchy but at the same time sweet persona to her. Though she wasn't as bright as Hermione, she still got good marks and had the heart of a Gryfindor, along with the qualities of Slytherin. Hermione was sure she would have done well in Gryfindor or Ravenclaw.
Pansy was probably the one who looked a lot like the typical American cheerleader stereotype. She had sun-kissed blonde hair and dark blue eyes. She was also the bubbly one. She could also be bitchy and airheaded at the same time. Even though she didn't seem very nice, at times, she could be. She was the type who would read all the fashion and beauty magazines.
Hermione was sure she would have befriended them in her first year if they weren't Sltherins. She never would have guessed they could be this way. They didn't always act like the daughters of deatheaters. They had the air of being evil and cruel but could be pleasant at the same time.
"Hermione, I was going to ask," began Blaise lazily, while filing her nails, "why were you crying earlier?"
Hermione blushed, "I don't think it'll really interest you. It was a really dumb reason now that I think about it."
"Don't worry, we're not going to make fun of you or anything," drawled Millicent as she lazily looked out the window.
"Well, it was Draco," continued Hermione.
"Oh really?" said Blaise. She stopped filing her nails and leaned in towards Hermione. Pansy and Millicent followed.
I don't want to seem rude," continued Blaise, "But I heard from my mother who heard it from your grandmother directly that you and Draco had a sort of...relationship this summer."
"I'm not really sure what it was, but I suppose you could call it that." replied Hermione.
Pansy leaned back. "Of course. Draco was always the type to mislead girls like that. He's always going from one girl to the next. I don't think he ever will settle down."
"Let me guess," replied Blaise, "he told you it wasn't working out?"
"Something like that," replied Hermione vaguely. "Did he do the same thing to you guys?"
"Oh heavens no!" began Pansy, "No matter how it might seem, he's never had a fling with any of us. We were too close as children. It would have been a bit strange. But he's like this to a lot of other girls at school. He always was an idiot. I know how I might seem, bitchy and unfeeling, but I really think what he's doing is wrong. It's really sad."
Millicent and Blaise nodded.
"Wow," replied Hermione, "I honestly didn't know he was like this."
"Forget about him," replied Millicent.
"All you have to do now, is let him see what he's missing. Plus, you have to lose the whole innocent schoolgirl thing. After all, if you're going to start hanging out with us, you have to fit in," said Blaise with an evil grin.
Hermione couldn't help it. She grinned too.

Draco had never felt this way before. Ever. Usually, when he broke up with a girl he didn't feel guilty at all. But Hermione was different. When he broke up with her, he felt completely horrible. He had broken Hermione's heart. He knew she would never forgive him. But he knew it would be better and less complicated that way. No matter how much he tried to tell himself other wise, he knew he was going to be a deatheater. Not because anyone was forcing him. It was his own free will. No matter how much he tried to deny it, it was what he wanted. He wanted to be with Hermione, but he knew she would never follow his path.
"She's not like that," he told himself.
She was raised as a Muggle. Even though she's pureblooded, she won't forget her Muggle ways. This was just the way things had to be.

Blaise, Pansy and Millicent decided quite quickly that Hermione was already beautiful and eye catching naturally. Unlike the other three, she wouldn't need much makeup to attract any attention.
"I'm jealous," said Blaise, examining Hermione's facial features, "all you need is some mascara and eyeliner, that's about it."
Pansy and Millicent were looking through a large pink makeup bag, no doubt Pansy's.
"Found it!" exclaimed Pansy, holding up black eyeliner and a tube of mascara.
"Lovely." whispered Blaise, taking it and applying some eyeliner to Hermione's upper and lower lids. "Okay, now sit still," she said, putting some mascara on Hermione's lashes.
"Did you bring a pair of robes and your uniform with you?" asked Millicent.
"Yes," replied Hermione, pointing to a small bag.
Pansy and Millicent opened it, taking out a robe, red plaid skirt, a white button shirt, a red Gryfindor tie, and a pair of Mary Janes.
"Well," said Pansy, "we might as well all change into our uniforms."
A few minutes later, the four of them were fully dressed in their uniforms, inspecting Hermione.
"Well," began Millicent, "your skirt is much too long," pointing to Hermione's skirt, which was an inch below her knees. Pansy, Blaise and Millicent's skirts were mid-thigh. Blaise quickly muttered a spell. Several inches were suddenly cut of from Hermione's skirt, making it as short as theirs.
"Ugh," exclaimed Blaise, "you have to get rid of those Mary Janes. You have great legs! You should show it off. I think you're about my size, so you can borrow a pair of my heels until we can go shopping." Blaise pulled out a pair of two inch high black heels from a small trunk. Hermione put them on. They were surprisingly comfortable.
"We all put charms on our shoes," explained Pansy, noticing the surprised look on Hermione's face. "Now, about your shirt and robes....they're a bit loose, don't you think?"
Hermione shrugged, bitting her lower lip. Blaise muttered another spell, making her shirt and robes fit a little tighter on her. Pansy fixed Hermione's tie, making it looser.
The three Slytherins stood back, admiring their work. They pulled out a mirror and showed Hermione the "improved" her.
Hermione didn't look too different, just more sultry and alluring. She had smoky eyes and the mascara made her lashes look longer and darker. It drew more attention to her gorgeous eyes. Her already slim and well proportioned body looked even better and her legs looked even longer.
"Wow," whispered Hermione.
The three Slytherins smiled.
"Thank you so much," said Hermione.
"You're quite welcome," replied Blaise.
"It's really eerie how much you resemble us and how much you.....fit in with us," stated Millicent. "I mean, we've only been together for about 4 hours."
Hermione had too agree. It was a bit eerie.
The four girls spent the rest of the train ride talking and eating the sweets they bought from the trolley. Hermione was surprised at how at ease she was with them. Perhaps the three girls were starting to get to her. But even if they were, Hermione didn't mind. She liked it.
