A/N: Hello peeps! Got a few things to say. First of all, thank you so much for all those

who reviewed and for those who flamed me, well, thanks for taking the

time to read anyway. This human isn't exactly a pro in English or anything and would like

to ask all those human who's reading this right now if they can be an editor or

something to this human.

A/N 2 : I've changed some part of this story so that it'll make some sense. It took place in

Harry's 7th year instead of his 5th year. Hermione's the Head Girl and Draco's

(he's so cute!!!) the Head Boy. Harry's the Gryffindor Quidditch captain. This

story will have some… err… a few… err… a lot, I guess, of Hermione and

Draco. Harry's in here too, don't worry. Draco will have an important part of the

story but the spotlight is still on Harry.

A/N 3 : I wanna know if you prefer Dudley to be enrolling to Hogwarts or not. If you

want him to be, which house will he be in? I'll follow the majority.

A/N 4 : Sorry if my English and grammar is terrible. English isn't exactly my first

language.

Disclaimer: Harry ain't mine! =(

Chapter 5

Hogwarts Express

"C'mon Harry. We gotta get on the train," Ron said after they'd finish loading their stuff into the train.

Harry didn't object. Hermione, Ginny, Ron and himself just climbed into the train and found themselves an empty compartment. Then they stuck their heads out through the window.

"Bye guys. Be naughty… oops, I mean nice," Fred corrected himself after he saw Mrs. Wesley's glare.

All four of them just laughed.

"Yes, be good. Oh, I almost forgot. Congratulations, Hermione, in being elected as Head Girl!" Mrs. Weasley said.

Hermione blushed as Harry, Ron and Ginny looked at her.

"Head Girl? And when exactly were you planning to share this little information with us, Miss Granger?" Ron asked.

"Well, I wanted it to be a surprise. Besides, Harry didn't tell you that he is the new Quidditch captain!" Hermione said.

This time, Harry blushed.

"How'd you find out?" asked Harry, curiously.

"It was so obvious, Harry," Hermione said, rolling her eyes.

"Good to know that Gryffindor will win the House Cup again this year," George smiled.

"Yes Harry. Congratulations!" Mrs. Weasley said again.

Just then, the train whistle blew and the train began to move.

"Bye mum! We'll send you an owl when we get there!" Ginny cried out.

"Bye mom! Bye dad! Bye Fred! Bye George!" Ron yelled.

"Bye Mr. and Mrs. Weasley! Bye Fred! Bye George!" Both Harry and Hermione called out, all of them waving at them.

After a few more minutes, they sat down.

"Harry! I can't believe you never told me that you are the Quidditch captain!" Ron exclaimed then he turned to Hermione "And I can't believe you didn't tell me that you are Head Girl."

Hermione shrugged. Ginny had left the compartment without anyone's notice and left the doors opened.

"Well, I really wanted it to be a surprise. Oh yes, I almost forgot. Do you know who's the Head Boy?" Hermione asked, looking at both of them.

"Who?" both Harry and Ron chorused.

"Draco Malfoy!"

"What!" they exclaimed.

"I know. Well, I suppose it wouldn't be that bad," she mumbled.

"Herm, are you nuts! This is Draco Malfoy we're talking about! Since when is he someone we can trust?" Ron pointed out.

"Since when indeed?" another voice asked.

All three of them turned to looked at the owner of the voice. It was Draco himself with Crabbe and Goyle standing on either side of him.

"Sod off, Malfoy," Harry said under his breath.

"I see you've learn a new word, Potter. Very good. I will try very hard to top that last one," Malfoy smirked.

He turned towards Hermione.

"Can't imagine how I'm going to work with a Mudblood. I just hope that you can keep up," Malfoy said in disgust.

With this, Hermione's face turned red from anger but she manages to control it. It was Ron who sprang up form his seat.

"Why I ought to…" he said but Harry grabbed him by the collar of his shirt before he could pounce on top of Malfoy.

"No Ron. He's not worth-it," Hermione mumbled as she helped Harry make Ron sit.

Malfoy was about to open his mouth to say something nasty but another voice spoke up from behind him.

"No trouble I hope," it went.

Malfoy and his gang spun around only to find Professor Dumbledore.

"No sir," Malfoy mumbled before he and his gang walked away.

"I wonder what Head Boy will he turn out to be," Hermione said and Dumbledore only smiled.

"Yes, we all wonder, Miss Granger," Dumbledore said with a sign of curiosity in his voice.

Then he walked away.

"I wonder how they pick out the person to be Head boy?" asked Ron. "And Head girl too," he continued as he saw Hermione glaring at him.

"Oh boy. This is going to be one very interesting year," Harry said.

"Cheer up, Harry. At least we can torment that cousin of yours. Where is he anyway?" Ron asked.

"I don't care. Hey Herm, don't the Head girl and Head boy have their own bedroom or something?" Harry asked.

Hermione smiled and nodded.

"I don't really know how it will look like but I hope it's not that close to Malfoy's room. Hey, do you think Professor Lupin going to teach us D.A.D.A. this year? I really wish he would. I can't stand another vampire for a teacher like last year," Hermione said.

"Hey, I think he was kinda cool. Remember that trick we played on him, Harry? That garlic bread we fed him? Boy, his face was really priceless," Ron laughed and was soon joined by Harry.

"That's not funny. He was almost killed. You're so lucky that Dumbledore haven't figure that it was you two who did it," said Hermione, angrily.

"Well, at least we got a few days off from it," Harry pointed out.

"And why was that necessary?" Hermione asked.

"Because it gave us time to figure out other pranks to pull on him. We didn't come up with anything else that good though. What a pity," Ron said, shaking his head.

"Honestly, you two are impossible to understand sometimes," said Hermione, as she took out a book from her bag.

"Sometimes?" Ron asked.

"Fine. Always. Happy?" Hermione said.

"Much better," replied Ron, as he gave a 'high-five' to Harry.

Ron was busy telling Harry about how Bill was tricked by the twins by something they invented when Dudley poked his head through the open doors. Ron stopped talking at once. Hermione, who was reading 'Standard Book of Spells, Year 7', looked up from the book to see who it was.

"What do you want?" Harry asked him, without looking at his cousin.

"Just wondering why there are only three of you in here," he smirked.

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked him.

Harry was surprised that Hermione was the one who spoke and not Ron. Dudley looked at her and Harry could've sworn that he saw Dudley blush.

"Are you two Harry's only friends?" Dudley spoke again.

Just as Harry was about to reply, Neville, Seamus and Dean came in the compartment.

"Hey Harry! Wanna play some Exploding Snap?" Seamus asked while Dean was taking out the cards from his pocket.

"Sure!" Harry replied.

All seven of them tried to make themselves as comfortable as possible in the compartment. While Dean was shuffling the cards, Harry looked over towards Dudley and was relieved to see he was leaving him alone and looked interested in playing instead. Harry smiled to himself as they started to play.

A/N: Sorry it's so short but I kinda need to know if you want Dudley to be enrolling into

Hogwarts or not!
