CHAPTER 3:: FRIENDS?
Why do I hate her so much again? Damien asked himself as he watched Marissa leave the room. I know she hates me. She's just letting me stay because she feels sorry for me. He sighed.
Draco and Hermione had been enemies for life. She had beaten him at everything and a few years ago she had slapped him. His father was constantly reminding him that he was only second best to a mudblood, and a girl at that.
"Okay, ready to go?" Hermione called from the foyer. She opened the door and was stepping outside. "We're going now, so you better hurry!"
Draco pulled on his shoes, which Hermione had left out to dry, and ran to the door. He stood on the front porch while Hermione locked the door. He tripped while going down the stairs and made a quick save by jumping down onto the lawn. He landed on his feet then fell over, quickly getting up and brushing himself off.
"You're pretty energetic and happy for someone who's been beaten and had to run about 3 miles last night." She told him giggling.
"Yeah, well Cocoa Puffs will do that to you." He did a little dance, "I'm Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs! Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs!"
"Ok, whatever you're smoking, you've got to stop." Hermione told him, rolling her eyes.
"You know, you're the 5th person to tell me that since term ended?" Draco informed her.
"You mean Slytherins actually have a sense of humor? I'm amazed."
She unlocked her car and slid into the front seat. Turning the ignition she started the AC. Draco plopped down beside her and closed his door. Hermione backed out of the driveway and when she pulled out all the way she turned her radio on and got It to a good station.
"Oh yes! I love this song!" She exclaimed happily.
"What song is it?" Damien asked apprehensively.
She rolled her eyes. "It's 'Every Time'." She told him.
'NOooooooooOo! Britney Spears! I'm scarred for life!" He thrashed around as though he were being tortured.
Marissa glared at him and he stopped.
"You know who Britney Spears is?" She asked him suspiciously.
"Doesn't everyone?" he retorted. "I know all about Michael Jackson too." He grinned
"Oh. Well we're going to leave it on this song."
"Ok, ok, fine, but I choose the next station." He told her.
Almost as soon as the song was over he started jabbing at the knobs on the dashboard, looking for a good song. A couple seconds later he had one.
"Freek-a-leek!" Marissa complained. "I guessing you listen to a lot of muggle music?"
Damien grinned. "Deal with it."
"Okay, we're here." Hermione turned off the car and unlocked the doors.
She waited for Draco and when he caught up they walked into Target.
