Chapter 5
"AHHHHHHHHHH! HELP!" the voice echoed again, slowly fading away. "What the hell was that!" Draco thought as he became to get frightened.
He looked all around to see what it was but there was nothing in the corridor. "Is that you Granger? It is really funny you know!" Draco shouted but their was no answer or sound.
"It probably isn't Granger. But I can't just stand here I AM HEAD BOY! I will have to see what it was." Draco thought as he was determined to go but he couldn't even take a step.
He was frozen of fear but he was determined to go and prove that he was worthy of head boy. The thought of it in his mind made him run to where he heard the voice was before.
Then he saw outside the lake was Hermione Granger chased by two dementors. "How the hell did all these dementors come from?" he asked himself , then the thought struck him, Voldemort.
As he was looking for an idea what to do he saw Hermione trying to do a Patronus charm. "EXPECTO PATRONUM! EXPECTO PATRONUM!" she shouted at the dementors but only a few whisps of silver substance shot out of her extended out wand. She couldn't do it with them closing in her. She slowly backed away into the lake. She went deeper and deeper into the lake.
"Let her die! For what she did to me. Let her die because she is a MUDBLOOD!" Draco shouted in his mind still very angry at Granger at the things she did to him. The punch.....the poke......the slap. "Now she will pay for what she did" Draco said as he kept on starring at her going deeper into the lake.
Then Draco's guilty conscience came over his mind, "But when she dies I WOULD GET THE BLAME! ARGHHHHHH STUPID GRANGER! I WOULD NOT BE HEAD BOY ANYMORE AND POTTER WOULD!" Draco thought his face turning very red by the second.
"I'LL WILL NOT LET THAT HAPPEN!" Draco exclaimed as he didn't notice he was thinking out loud. The dementors turn and look who was shouting and notice Draco. They slowly approach him as Draco became horrified.
He fumbled to get his wand, closed his eyes and with all his might he shouted "EXPECTO PATRONUM!" He open his eyes to see that nothing happen and then he remembered that he had to think of a happy thought.
"I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE ON POTTER! POTTER WILL BE DEAD! HE WILL NEVER BE HERE TO RUIN MY LIFE ANYMORE. POTTER WILL BE GONE!" He shouted in his mind, as he closed his eyes shut and with that he shouted out loud "EXPECTO PATRONUM!"
A silvery substance came out of his wand and a silvery huge snake shot out, chasing the dementors. The two dementors vanished away and that was when Draco opened his eyes. Draco fell down as he saw the sight of the huge basilisk that slithered away and vanished as well.
Draco then remembered about Hermione. He raced down to the lake looking for Hermione. He was too late Hermione went in too deep. He then saw a hand raised up from the lake and then Hermiones head "HELP! I AM DROWNING! I DON'T KNOW HOW......" Hermione shouted for help as her head went back down the water and her extended hand.
Draco's mind was lost he didn't know what to do. "Where is that stupid Potter boy when you need him!" thought Draco as his mind raced for ideas. He couldn't stand there he had to swim in to get her. And with that Draco Jumped into the lake and swam underneath to look for her.
He spotted her sinking down to the bottom of the lake but he quickly caught her and brought her back up. He was huffing from the swimming and carrying Hermione. Then he dropped her on the ground with a thud and he muttered "Stupid mudblood!".
She didn't move. "Is she dead? She can't be! I'll just have to carry her to madame promfrey. But would she make it. ARGHHHHH STUPID MUDBLOOD!" Draco shouted as he thought of ways to save her.
"Do I have to give her air! OH HELL!" Draco thought and with that as his only idea he stooped over her closing towards her face. He took a deep breath in as he moved his face closer which was inches away from her face when a angry shout came from behind him.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING MALFOY! GET AWAY FROM HER!" The angry voice shouted. Just then Hermione sputtered water out of her mouth right on Draco's face. Draco quickly jumped up trying to wipe off the water that Hermione spitted out on him with the sleeves of his robes.
"FILTHY MUDBLOOD! If I knew you could do that I would've not thought of giving you air." Draco spatted as he lowered his robes to see Harry Potter's angry face.
"POTTER! What the hell took you so long! Your stupid damsel here was drowning. And I had to rescue her from those stupid dementors. Harry you are very slow aren't you? Oh I get it, this whole thing is a joke, a scam isn't it?" Draco spat as anger rose in him.
"I bet you think this is funny, well YOU WILL GET IT POTTER! And the same with you, you filthy little MUDBLOOD! I should've just let you die there with all those dementors!" Draco shouted at the speechless Potter and with that he left to his dormitory.
Draco was in a very bad mood now with his hatred of Harry and Hermione growing even bigger. Once he got to his dormitory he jumped into his bed, pulled down the hangings roughly and starred up as he laid on his back.
"I shouldn't saved her, that stupid mudblood. Should of left her to die. I knew they were in this joke. They think they could play Draco Malfoy? They are terribly mistaken. They better watch their backs. I will find a way to get back at them, they will be sorry!" Draco thought as looked out of the window to see the still night.
He took a glanced at his alarm clock and saw that it was only 11:55 at night. "I don't care about five minutes of duties, I am going to bed" and with his robes still on he closed his eyes starring into the darkness. He continue to stare, his mind blank.
"Hahahahahhahahahahaha" a voice from no where started to laugh, laugh at him. "WHO IS LAUGHING! WHO IS IT!" shouted Draco his voice full of anger. Then a smirking Harry popped right in front of him.
"YOU! I knew it would be you Potter! It always have been YOU that ruins everything for me. Laughing at me aren't you? You thought that stupid joke of yours with Hermione was funny? Well POTTER YOU WILL GET IT NOW!" shouted the outraged Draco as he seized Harry.
But Harry dissolved away from his hands once Draco touched him. "POTTER!" Draco shouted with all his angry flowing out. Then a blinding light caught his eye.
"Stop Draco...... don't do it....... It's not worth it......" the fading voice said and a figure of girl slowly appeared in the light. "Its you again, WHO ARE YOU! SHOW YOURSELF!" Draco shouted as he remembered the last time he saw the girl.
But before he could take a step closer to the light, the light became brighter as it flashed away. Draco remembered the last time he got hurt by the blinding light and so he covered his eyes at once.
The light was gone and in its place was Harry again but this time his wand pointing at Draco. "AVADA KADAVRA!" Harry shouted as a bright green light flashed out of his wand.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Draco shouted. "Draco, Draco, wake up" came a voice and Draco shot out of bed starring wide eyed at the person who woke him up. "Am I dead? Where am I?" Draco asked the person that woke him up which ended up to be Crabbe.
Beads of sweat fell down his face. "Draco your not dead, and your in your dormitory. I think you had a bad dream. You were shouting in your sleep saying No!!!!!!!" Goyle said mimicking what Draco just did.
Draco saw that he was indeed in his dormitory with Crabbe and Goyle looking at him curiously. "Yeah, and Goyle and me thought we should wake you up since you were thrashing around in your bed" Crabbe said.
"It was that stupid dream again! What is wrong with me! ARGH! And why its that stupid girl in it! Who the hell is she!" Draco questioned himself angrily. Draco got out of bed and decided to forget about the dream.
He quickly changed into new school robes and left downstairs with Crabbe and Goyle. They enter the great hall and sat down on the Slytherin table. Timetables were handed out and when he got his he saw that he had double charms first thing.
He glanced at the Gryffindor table to see that Hermione and Harry were friends again since they were chatting feverishly. "Hmph.... They friends again how sad...... and I thought Granger was smart to know that Harry is no good" thought Draco as he continue to stare at them.
"Draco.... What are you looking at" Pansy voice spoke as she looked at the direction where Draco was looking. "Nothing" snapped Draco as he turned around and began to pick some eggs, toast, and bacon on his gold plate.
"Oh are you looking at Granger and Potter? Then you probably heard about the dementors last night" Pansy said as she continue to look at the Gryffindor table. "What? What do you mean. Don't tell me that Granger reported it last night?" Draco asked.
"I should've reported it. I can't believe I have totally forgotten I was suppose too. Now Granger reported it probably with a different story to what really happen" thought Draco as he stabbed at his eggs with his fork.
"Yea.... How do you know Draco? Were you there as well. I heard that Potter saved Granger's life from the dementors. Hey weren't you suppose to do duties with Granger?" Pansy asked as she turned her eyes away from Gryffindor table and eyeing Draco.
"Hmph..... Potter! I knew he would be in this. Think he is the hero is he. Well he is wrong wait till I report this and........ wait a minute..... Did they say anything about me?" Draco asked.
"Nope nothing that I heard of. Just Potter and Granger. I didn't hear the full story though. But what would Potter be doing late at night when he is suppose to be in his dorm." Pansy wondered as she looked over at the Gryffindor table suspiciously.
"Hmph..... Didn't say anything about me why don't you. I WAS THE ONE THAT DEFEATED THOSE DEMENTORS! What the hell is Potter and Granger talking about. Of course Granger was unconscious and Potter came out of no where. THAT LYING SCARHEAD! OF COURSE! He would do anything to just be the hero. Wait till I tell the truth to Professor McGonagall!" thought Draco.
Just then Professor McGonagall stood up from the staff table and was walking towards him. "May I have a word with you in my office, Mr Malfoy?" said Professor McGonagall in a more ordering voice then a asking voice.
"Yes, Professor" Draco replied as he followed her. Professor McGonagall also headed for the Gyrffindor table to Hermione. "Now its my chance to tell Professor McGonagall" thought Draco as a smirk come across his face.
"Granger, I will like to have a word with you as well." said Professor McGonagall. Hermione nodded and followed Professor McGonagall with a worried face. Once they got to her office Professor McGonagall closed the door after they came in and she sat down and she also motioned the other two to sit as well.
"Now I heard from Miss Granger here that there were two dementors last night. Now Miss Granger here says that you two had an argument and went your separate ways and that was when you met the dementor Miss Granger?" asked Professor McGonagall.
"Yes Professor and they were chasing me. I tried to do the patronus charm we learned last year but it didn't work so I ran into the lake and after that I don't know what happen to the dementors but I think Harry made them go...." Hermione said as she was interrupted by Draco.
"But Professor I was the one that made the dementors go away and I saw that Granger was drowning so I thought it was my duty to save her. And then Potter shows up when I got Granger out of the water. I left and went to my dorm. It wasn't Potter that did that. Anyway he wasn't suppose to be late out at night" said Draco as he shot a glare at Hermione.
"But Professor I saw Harry not Draco and Harry is the only student that knows a strong patronus charm to scare off more than one dementor..." Hermione said.
"WHY YOU! I can do a strong patronus just like him mine is probably even better" Draco argued back as he still continue to glare at her and she glared back at him.
"Now, now Malfoy we don't want fighting here. If you were the one that fought off the dementors how come you haven't reported to a teacher right away like Miss Granger did here?" asked Professor McGonagall and Hermione beamed at her with triumph.
"Well Professor, I just forgot" Draco stated. Professor McGonagall looked at him as though that explanation of Draco's wasn't enough to prove his story.
"Well I don't know what story is true but for now I warn you two to be more CAREFUL and to check at night TOGETHER! Is that clear?" Professor McGonagall ordered and they both nodded.
"Alright you two could leave for your classes now. You have at least 10 minutes to get to your class" Professor McGonagall said as she stood up from her seat.
"But Professor......." Draco tried to say but was waved away by Professor McGonagall. "No buts Mr Malfoy, we will drop the fact which story is true to what happen last night. Now you both better go now don't want to be late for your first class do you?" Professor McGonagall said as she shooed them out of her office.
Draco knew he could not say anything more to convince Professor McGonagall so he just gave up. He knew that Potter has been a hero so many times why would Professor McGonagall think that he was the hero this time.
Then Hermione spoke up, "You were lying weren't you, Malfoy?" Hermione asked trying to prove herself that Harry rescued her and not Draco.
"Believe what you want, Granger. I don't care anymore. Go back to Potter boy, your hero" Draco snapped back as he walked off to his charms class, angrily.
During charms class they had to practice doing the protean charm which he didn't seem to get. He was glad that class was finally over and that he had Potions next, his favourite class. As he was walking to class with Crabbe and Goyle by his side, he spotted Harry, Hermione and Ron on the way.
"Well, well Potter, the hero of last night, so I've heard. You know Potter its not good to lie about things you haven't done. Sounds to me like your turning up to be Gilderoy Lockhart. The fraud he was and where did he ended up in but St. Mungos, his mind lost. Seems like your following his footsteps, aren't you Potter?" Draco sneered as Crabbe and Goyle laughed.
Harry was about to argue back but Hermione piped in "Come on Harry just ignore him. Professor Snape will be coming soon" persuading Harry to get into the dungeon. Harry shot a glare at Draco and finally entered the dungeon classroom. Draco continue to sneer at him as he followed behind him.
Soon enough, Snape had entered the dungeon slamming the dungeon door behind him and striding to the front of the class. He flicked his wand and words were appearing on the blackboard.
"Today, we are going to make a floating potion. Well what are you waiting for? Start writing down the ingredients while I explain." Professor Snape ordered and the students took out parchment and ink.
At the noise of scratching quills on parchment Professor Snape began again to talk. "Potter! Do you know how much of the potion to take to float in the air at 10 feet?" Professor Snape asked as he cocked a eyebrow at him.
Hermione's hand shot up right away. "I did not ask you Granger! Put your hand down! Well Potter?" Snape asked again as he continue to stare at him. "Ummmm........ 10 drops?" Harry said nervously.
"Wrong Potter! You would be floating at only 5 feet off the ground. It would actually take 20 drops of the potion to float at 10 feet. 5 points from Gryffindor." Snape said as his eyes flickered with enjoyment.
"Now Potter, how about this question..... How long does the potion last? Potter ONLY!" Snape snapped as he saw Hermione's hand fall back down. "Ummm..... an hour...?" Harry said once again nervously. Professor Snape's eye were thin slits as he looked at Potter angrily.
"Well Potter good guess. Another 5 points from Gryffindor. I don't allow guesses in my class!" Professor Snape said bitterly as he turned around the class. All the students looked down and continued on their potion. Draco, Crabbe and Goyle snickered at Harry as they too continued on their potion.
"Hahahahahahaha Potter deserved that! Trying to be the big man with everything. Hmph!" Draco thought as he stirred his perfectly made potion.
After potions Draco went to the great hall to eat. As Draco sat down at the Slytherin table he remembered he still had head boy duties tonight with Hermione. "Argh.... Not another night with her..... And I thought she was going to be useful to me when she is actually a big hassle. I don't care about her no more I am going to be the duties myself" Draco thought as he began to pick up some food.
"WAIT! But professor McGonagall said we HAD to go together for our duties" Draco's conscience said to him. "Arghhh...... stupid Granger, stupid McGonagall" Draco thought annoyingly.
Then something was waving in front of him as he snapped out of his thoughts. It was Pansy's hand. "What!?" Draco snapped as he wasn't in a very good mood.
"Draco.... What is wrong with you today? You seem to be more quiet then usual. Just a minute I asked if you wanted any pumpkin juice but you didn't reply so then I tried to get your attention. What were you thinking Draco?" Pansy said as she furrowed her brows (if you called them brows, more like brow).
"I don't want any pumpkin juice and I am fine, thanks. And it is none of your business what I think!" Draco snapped and he continued to eat.
After lunch he felt really thirsty since he didn't drink any pumpkin juice since he did say he didn't want any when he actually did. Then he spotted Hermione holding a cup of pumpkin juice as she was exiting the great hall.
Draco walked up to her, grabbed the glass before Hermione could drink it and chugged all down. "Ahhh.... That felt better. Why thank you Granger. How did you know I wanted some pumpkin juice just now. You are a very smart girl after all...." Draco drawled as he gave her a smirk.
Hermione was speechless for a second until she realised what Draco had done. "THAT WAS MINE HOW DARE YOU! YOU BETTER GET ME ANOTHER ONE OR I WOULD HAVE TO PUNCH YOU you disgusting ..... You revolting.....!" Hermione shouted, furiously.
"Now now Granger we don't want to see no fighting do we? There are teachers right there. Not a good example of a head girl is it to start a fight. Tsk tsk.... Oh here's your cup" Draco snickered as he handed back the cup and walked off with Crabbe and Goyle.
"Ahhhh.... That indeed felt better....." Draco said as he chortled out loud. He turned his head to have a glance at Hermione and he could see she was cursing under her breath and stomping back into the great hall.
The rest of the day went by fast as Draco was in a good mood after what happen at the great hall with Hermione. The classes went by fast for him. It was already evening as Draco walked into the great hall for dinner. He sat down to eat at the Slytherin table.
He could hear the prefects heading out for their duties and soon enough he and Hermione had to go for their late night dutie as well. Draco didn't want to think about it as he chatted with Crabbe and Goyle about quidditch.
As he finished his food he got up to leave. When he just stepped outside to the entrance hall Hermione stopped him before he could go anywhere further as she stepped in front of his way with her hands behind her back.
Draco tried to ignore this and tried to step around Hermione but she step in front of Draco again. He tried again but Hermione moved in front him again. "What do you want Granger?" Draco snapped as he eyed her suspiciously.
"Oh I just want to give you some pumpkin juice" as she revealed it to Draco from behind her back. "Trying to poison me aren't you Granger? Not a good place to do it though. There are teachers just right there and I thought you were smarter than that" Draco said as he gave a smirk at her.
"Oh no Malfoy, just wanted to give you some pumpkin juice since last time you wanted one from me. So here" Hermione said as she extended the cup to Draco. "Hmm... you know Granger last time I wanted pumpkin juice but this time I don't" Draco said as he continue to smirk at her. "Alright if you don't want any....." Hermione said as she was about to turn around.
"Wait Granger, I could see you want to be my servant don't you. I get it.... Well you catching on to be a good one. Let me see that pumpkin juice I don't want to waist your efforts trying to be good servant to me. And if you did anything funny there are teachers right there to punish you. Here give it...." Draco said as he extended his arm for it.
"Here you go...." Hermione said as she splashed the pumpkin juice on Draco's face. "Oops didn't mean to spill it" Hermione said sarcastically as she gave the cup to Draco.
"You know I don't think I would be cut out to be your servant Draco. And I think I don't like the job. Anyways I got to go" Hermione said as she walked off.
But then she turned around and said, "Oh yea almost forgot. I'll be meeting you here for our duties for now on and if I don't meet you I don't know what Professor McGonagall is going to think about that. Probably not a good example of head boy, don't you think Malfoy? I guess I'll see you here" and with that she walked away giggling.
"GRANGER! You will get it!" Draco thought as he tried to wipe out some of the pumpkin juice off his face. "You stupid idiots! Why didn't you do something." Draco yelled at Crabbe and Goyle.
"Um.... But Draco there are teachers right there" Goyle said as he pointed to the staff table and Crabbe nodded in agreement. "Argh you useless idiots" Draco muttered and then he walked off to the boys bathroom to clean himself as Crabbe and Goyle ran after him.
Now Draco was dreading than ever to do his duties tonight with Hermione Granger.
Chapter 5
"AHHHHHHHHHH! HELP!" the voice echoed again, slowly fading away. "What the hell was that!" Draco thought as he became to get frightened.

"But Professor I was the one that made the dementors go away and I saw that Granger was drowning so I thought it was my duty to save her. And then Potter shows up when I got Granger out of the water. I left and went to my dorm. It wasn't Potter that did that. Anyway he wasn't suppose to be late out at night" said Draco as he shot a glare at Hermione.
"But Professor I saw Harry not Draco and Harry is the only student that knows a strong patronus charm to scare off more than one dementor..." Hermione said.
"WHY YOU! I can do a strong patronus just like him mine is probably even better" Draco argued back as he still continue to glare at her and she glared back at him.
"Now, now Malfoy we don't want fighting here. If you were the one that fought off the dementors how come you haven't reported to a teacher right away like Miss Granger did here?" asked Professor McGonagall and Hermione beamed at her with triumph.
"Well Professor, I just forgot" Draco stated. Professor McGonagall looked at him as though that explanation of Draco's wasn't enough to prove his story.
"Well I don't know what story is true but for now I warn you two to be more CAREFUL and to check at night TOGETHER! Is that clear?" Professor McGonagall ordered and they both nodded.
"Alright you two could leave for your classes now. You have at least 10 minutes to get to your class" Professor McGonagall said as she stood up from her seat.
"But Professor......." Draco tried to say but was waved away by Professor McGonagall. "No buts Mr Malfoy, we will drop the fact which story is true to what happen last night. Now you both better go now don't want to be late for your first class do you?" Professor McGonagall said as she shooed them out of her office.
Draco knew he could not say anything more to convince Professor McGonagall so he just gave up. He knew that Potter has been a hero so many times why would Professor McGonagall think that he was the hero this time.
Then Hermione spoke up, "You were lying weren't you, Malfoy?" Hermione asked trying to prove herself that Harry rescued her and not Draco.
"Believe what you want, Granger. I don't care anymore. Go back to Potter boy, your hero" Draco snapped back as he walked off to his charms class, angrily.
During charms class they had to practice doing the protean charm which he didn't seem to get. He was glad that class was finally over and that he had Potions next, his favourite class. As he was walking to class with Crabbe and Goyle by his side, he spotted Harry, Hermione and Ron on the way.
"Well, well Potter, the hero of last night, so I've heard. You know Potter its not good to lie about things you haven't done. Sounds to me like your turning up to be Gilderoy Lockhart. The fraud he was and where did he ended up in but St. Mungos, his mind lost. Seems like your following his footsteps, aren't you Potter?" Draco sneered as Crabbe and Goyle laughed.
Harry was about to argue back but Hermione piped in "Come on Harry just ignore him. Professor Snape will be coming soon" persuading Harry to get into the dungeon. Harry shot a glare at Draco and finally entered the dungeon classroom. Draco continue to sneer at him as he followed behind him.
Soon enough, Snape had entered the dungeon slamming the dungeon door behind him and striding to the front of the class. He flicked his wand and words were appearing on the blackboard.
"Today, we are going to make a floating potion. Well what are you waiting for? Start writing down the ingredients while I explain." Professor Snape ordered and the students took out parchment and ink.
At the noise of scratching quills on parchment Professor Snape began again to talk. "Potter! Do you know how much of the potion to take to float in the air at 10 feet?" Professor Snape asked as he cocked a eyebrow at him.
Hermione's hand shot up right away. "I did not ask you Granger! Put your hand down! Well Potter?" Snape asked again as he continue to stare at him. "Ummmm........ 10 drops?" Harry said nervously.
"Wrong Potter! You would be floating at only 5 feet off the ground. It would actually take 20 drops of the potion to float at 10 feet. 5 points from Gryffindor." Snape said as his eyes flickered with enjoyment.
"Now Potter, how about this question..... How long does the potion last? Potter ONLY!" Snape snapped as he saw Hermione's hand fall back down. "Ummm..... an hour...?" Harry said once again nervously. Professor Snape's eye were thin slits as he looked at Potter angrily.
"Well Potter good guess. Another 5 points from Gryffindor. I don't allow guesses in my class!" Professor Snape said bitterly as he turned around the class. All the students looked down and continued on their potion. Draco, Crabbe and Goyle snickered at Harry as they too continued on their potion.
"Hahahahahahaha Potter deserved that! Trying to be the big man with everything. Hmph!" Draco thought as he stirred his perfectly made potion.
After potions Draco went to the great hall to eat. As Draco sat down at the Slytherin table he remembered he still had head boy duties tonight with Hermione. "Argh.... Not another night with her..... And I thought she was going to be useful to me when she is actually a big hassle. I don't care about her no more I am going to be the duties myself" Draco thought as he began to pick up some food.
"WAIT! But professor McGonagall said we HAD to go together for our duties" Draco's conscience said to him. "Arghhh...... stupid Granger, stupid McGonagall" Draco thought annoyingly.
Then something was waving in front of him as he snapped out of his thoughts. It was Pansy's hand. "What!?" Draco snapped as he wasn't in a very good mood.
"Draco.... What is wrong with you today? You seem to be more quiet then usual. Just a minute I asked if you wanted any pumpkin juice but you didn't reply so then I tried to get your attention. What were you thinking Draco?" Pansy said as she furrowed her brows (if you called them brows, more like brow).
"I don't want any pumpkin juice and I am fine, thanks. And it is none of your business what I think!" Draco snapped and he continued to eat.
After lunch he felt really thirsty since he didn't drink any pumpkin juice since he did say he didn't want any when he actually did. Then he spotted Hermione holding a cup of pumpkin juice as she was exiting the great hall.
Draco walked up to her, grabbed the glass before Hermione could drink it and chugged all down. "Ahhh.... That felt better. Why thank you Granger. How did you know I wanted some pumpkin juice just now. You are a very smart girl after all...." Draco drawled as he gave her a smirk.
Hermione was speechless for a second until she realised what Draco had done. "THAT WAS MINE HOW DARE YOU! YOU BETTER GET ME ANOTHER ONE OR I WOULD HAVE TO PUNCH YOU you disgusting ..... You revolting.....!" Hermione shouted, furiously.
"Now now Granger we don't want to see no fighting do we? There are teachers right there. Not a good example of a head girl is it to start a fight. Tsk tsk.... Oh here's your cup" Draco snickered as he handed back the cup and walked off with Crabbe and Goyle.
"Ahhhh.... That indeed felt better....." Draco said as he chortled out loud. He turned his head to have a glance at Hermione and he could see she was cursing under her breath and stomping back into the great hall.
The rest of the day went by fast as Draco was in a good mood after what happen at the great hall with Hermione. The classes went by fast for him. It was already evening as Draco walked into the great hall for dinner. He sat down to eat at the Slytherin table.
He could hear the prefects heading out for their duties and soon enough he and Hermione had to go for their late night dutie as well. Draco didn't want to think about it as he chatted with Crabbe and Goyle about quidditch.
As he finished his food he got up to leave. When he just stepped outside to the entrance hall Hermione stopped him before he could go anywhere further as she stepped in front of his way with her hands behind her back.
Draco tried to ignore this and tried to step around Hermione but she step in front of Draco again. He tried again but Hermione moved in front him again. "What do you want Granger?" Draco snapped as he eyed her suspiciously.
"Oh I just want to give you some pumpkin juice" as she revealed it to Draco from behind her back. "Trying to poison me aren't you Granger? Not a good place to do it though. There are teachers just right there and I thought you were smarter than that" Draco said as he gave a smirk at her.
"Oh no Malfoy, just wanted to give you some pumpkin juice since last time you wanted one from me. So here" Hermione said as she extended the cup to Draco. "Hmm... you know Granger last time I wanted pumpkin juice but this time I don't" Draco said as he continue to smirk at her. "Alright if you don't want any....." Hermione said as she was about to turn around.
"Wait Granger, I could see you want to be my servant don't you. I get it.... Well you catching on to be a good one. Let me see that pumpkin juice I don't want to waist your efforts trying to be good servant to me. And if you did anything funny there are teachers right there to punish you. Here give it...." Draco said as he extended his arm for it.
"Here you go...." Hermione said as she splashed the pumpkin juice on Draco's face. "Oops didn't mean to spill it" Hermione said sarcastically as she gave the cup to Draco.
"You know I don't think I would be cut out to be your servant Draco. And I think I don't like the job. Anyways I got to go" Hermione said as she walked off.
But then she turned around and said, "Oh yea almost forgot. I'll be meeting you here for our duties for now on and if I don't meet you I don't know what Professor McGonagall is going to think about that. Probably not a good example of head boy, don't you think Malfoy? I guess I'll see you here" and with that she walked away giggling.
"GRANGER! You will get it!" Draco thought as he tried to wipe out some of the pumpkin juice off his face. "You stupid idiots! Why didn't you do something." Draco yelled at Crabbe and Goyle.
"Um.... But Draco there are teachers right there" Goyle said as he pointed to the staff table and Crabbe nodded in agreement. "Argh you useless idiots" Draco muttered and then he walked off to the boys bathroom to clean himself as Crabbe and Goyle ran after him.
Now Draco was dreading than ever to do his duties tonight with Hermione Granger.
