DRACO NICE?
Next day, Harry spotted Hermione outside of the Potion's classroom door, carrying a considerable amount of books in her hands.
"Hermione are you okay?" asked Harry in a worried voice. "Did Malfoy hurt you or something, because if he did, I'll swear I'll jinx him in such a way..." Harry was talking rather fast and looked really agitated.
"Harry, Harry calm down" said Hermione in a tranquilizing voice. "Don't worry he didn't hurt me"
"What happened then?" asked Ron who had spotted the both of them talking and had come up to them.
"He walked out" said Hermione really intrigued.
"What do you mean he walked out?" asked Harry quickly
"Well, he was aiming at me but he missed, then Snape came over and started yelling at him, and he said he had missed because of his wand, that he needed to replace it and then went to the Slytherin´s Common Room." Ron and Harry couldn't believe their ears.
"Are you saying Malfoy missed the opportunity to jinx a muggle-born?" said Ron in complete astonishment.
"Yes" said Hermione not sure that she should continue "And you know what the strangest thing is? I could swear he diverted his wand so it wouldn't hit me."
"What???" said Ron and Harry at the same time.
In that moment one of the books Hermione was holding fell to the floor, and she was about to kneel to pick it up, when someone else had already done it for her, when she raised her eyes to say thanks she was astounded to see Draco. Her mind was racing. Why on earth was Draco being nice with her? Was this some kind of trick?
"Thanks, I suppose" said Hermione with an unsure voice.
But Hermione was not the only one wondering why was Draco being nice to her, Harry was starting to worry, he could not see a single reason for Draco to be nice to Hermione and he didn't like it, he didn't like it at all. Meanwhile Ron, who could read Harry's and Hermione's minds, was examining Draco´s face trying to find an answer.
But what none of them knew was that Snape had watched the whole scene, and that unlike them, he didn't have a single doubt about Draco´s attitude. How could he? He had gone through the same thing some 20 years ago.
