Draco Malfoy valued his beauty rest. After all, he didn't get his charming good looks by staying up all night doing the Cotton Eye Joe along with "Hit Me Baby One More Time", did he?

(A/N: You can actually do that! I was doing the Cotton Eye Joe with some friends and we were singing that song while we were dancing. If you sing the song slow enough, you can actually get the dance steps to match the beat!)

So it was very aggravating to have his little siesta interrupted by a loud, piercing clamor that he later realized was coming from one of his least favorite people's bedroom. It was even more aggravating that even after screaming and banging on the walls from his room, the noise did not stop. So he was forced to leave his warm and inviting bed and walk all the way from his room to the mudblood's sleeping quarters and demand her to cease.

"All right. Remember Draco, you do NOT need a mudblood screaming at you early in the morning. Avoid any conflict. Be calm. Be civil to her..." stated his conscience.

"Bloody hell, Granger! Turn that bloody music off or I'll Avada Kedavra your Gryffindor arse!! I can't sleep with that infernal racket going on in the morning!"

"...or not..."

And STILL the infuriating racket continued. What was it anyway? Was that...music? It didn't sound like anything Draco had ever heard of. He pressed his ear against the door and listened.

"I want to fly into your sun
Need faith to make me numb
Live like a teenage Christ
I'm a saint, got a date with suicide

Oh Mary, Mary
To be this young is oh so scary
Mary, Mary
To be this young I'm oh so scared
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell..."

Draco's eyebrows rose up so high they almost reached his hairline.

"WELL...I never expected Granger to be listening to THIS sort of music...I could definitely use this as blackmail. Goody-two-shoes bookworm contemplating suicide, perhaps? Oh, this will make juicy gossip..."

And with that, Draco smirked and walked back to his room, pondering on the best technique on humiliating his arch rival's mudblood friend. What he didn't know was that inside said mudblood's bedroom, the Head Girl was sitting on her bed, holding a gun in her hand.

A/N: Is Hermione REALLY gonna commit suicide? We'll see, won't we? Oh, and the song that Hermione's listening to is by Marilyn Manson, "Long Hard Road Out of Hell".
