Chapter 2

The Plan

            The alarm rang. Hermione turned it off but continued to lie in her bed. Why was she so tired? Maybe she wouldn't have been, if she hadn't cried herself to sleep until about two o'clock in the morning.

            I won't think about this today, she thought. I would just die if I did.

            "I could never love you! I DON'T love.  What makes you think you're any different than all the other girls?"

            Tears started running down her face. How was she ever going to deal with this? How could she want him and hate him so much at the same time? How was she ever going to live?

            The morning sun was shining through her dormitory windows. Being a Head Girl, she had a large "apartment", you could say. Her dormitory included a bedroom with a king size bed and a walk-in closet, a living room with a fireplace, and a bathroom with a large bathtub. She even had her own study. The only thing missing was…Draco. Oh man, I promised I wouldn't think about him anymore. After all, he's the reason I'm in this condition.

            "That bastard!" was all she could say in a frail, cracking voice.

            Hermione suddenly became aware of the time. It was 7:15 and if she didn't hurry up and get out of bed, she would miss breakfast.

            She couldn't care less about how she looked, after all the love of her life was gone. He didn't love her! Trying to keep that out of her mind, she threw a baggy sweater on and a pleated skirt under her robes.

            Hermione went into the study expecting to find her books neat, in a pile on her desk, but to her surprise, she didn't. She had been upset last night and thrown the contents of her desk and bookshelves onto the floor. The room was a mess. You could hardly find a place to step on.  How am I going to find anything in here? She left her dormitory five minutes later without her Transfiguration book.

            Harry and Ron were already having breakfast, their heads close together and talking in hushed voices. The chatter halted when Hermione sat down in front of them.

            She greeted them "Good morning," in the calmest voice she could muster.

            "Good morning," said Harry and Ron together.

            They were looking at her in a strange sort of way. "Is there anything wrong, guys?"

            "No, not really," answered Harry. "Are you feeling OK?"

            "Yes, of course!" lied Hermione, "Don't I always?"

            Harry and Ron exchanged disapproving looks. "Alright, Hermione, we know that there is something bothering you," started Ron, "You can tell us."

            "Yes," added Harry "We might be able to help."

            "I am sorry that you are worried, but there is nothing to be worried about!"

            Harry looked shocked. He had known her for a long time and he could tell when she was lying and when there was something wrong. But how could she lie to his face like that? All he wanted was to help!

            "Then why are your eyes red and puffy?"

            "I just got something in my eye, so I was rubbing it to get it out!" Hermione started to get defensive.

            Both Harry and Ron knew that Hermione wasn't being honest. Even if she did get something in one of her eyes, that still didn't explain how they were both red.

            Ron was about to open his mouth, but Harry stomped hard on his foot and he closed it so fast, that he bit his tongue. Ouch!

            "Why aren't you eating, Hermione?" asked Harry.

            "I'm just not hungry right now," she answered.

            Ron looked at her quizzically. "Oh, bloody hell! Do you realize that you've been saying that ever since school started…two weeks ago?"

            "Harry, Ron," she said turning her head to face each of them in turn, "I am perfectly fine! Now I wish you two would stop arguing with me!"

            Hermione reached in front of her and grabbed a powdered donut. "See? I am eating," she said while stuffing as much of the donut in her mouth as would fit and pouring herself a glass of orange juice.

            "OK. You convinced us," Ron said, trying to look like he actually believed what he had just said, "but I want you to know that we are always here for you."

            "Thanks for being my friends," said Hermione, "I wouldn't know what to do without you!"

            They were leaving the Great Hall when, Hermione shot a cold look over to the Slytherin table just in time to see Draco with a girl on each of his legs. One of them was Pansy, the other one was a 6th year from Slytherin she didn't know.

            I hate him. He's such a bastard, Hermione thought.

            Hours later, after dinner, Hermione was in her bedroom. She had just finished all of her homework and it was only eight o'clock.

            She decided to spill her heart out to her diary.

            Dear diary,

Why do I like Draco so much? I want him so badly! What am I thinking? He's probably getting laid right now. Oh, why did I let him get to me?

Flashback

He carried her into a bedroom. The bed was covered in pillows. He gently laid her down on it. He climbed up next to the girl and started kissing her.

Standing on his knees, Draco unbuttoned his expensive shirt and gently laid it on a nearby chair. She saw his bare chest, muscular from working out and ran her hands up and down it, getting excited. It felt so good to finally touch and have someone you have wanted for so many years. His strong body made her feel safe. He had the body of a bodybuilder, buff and hard.

Draco lowered himself up on top of her and started kissing her, from her lips, down her neck. When he reached her chest, he slid his hands underneath her tank top and cupped them around her soft breasts.

He has such an intoxicating touch, she thought, it feels so damn good!

Draco took her shirt off and threw it on the floor.

The next morning when Hermione woke up, she saw Draco sleeping on the bed beside her. He was irresistible even when he was drooling on his pillow.

I love this man, she thought. Just look at the way his chest rises and falls as he's breathing. Now that is something I could get used to. I just had the most wanted man in school!

Her thoughts kept flowing from one aspect she loved about him to another. She had never felt that way before.

End Flashback

I just wish that we could have just left everything the way it was until he woke up! Geez, I'm crying again. I need to deal with this somehow. I need to get back at him for what he's done! Why are all guys like that? Is their whole life a one-night stand? Pretend to like you and sleep with you then tell you that you're worthless and that they could never love you? I want revenge! Revenge on all men! They will feel my wrath! Let's see, I'm going to beat him at his own game…he seduces women and sleeps with them for fun. They just crave him afterwards. Oh my God! I am brilliant! That's what I'll do! I'll seduce guys and they'll like me, because after all that is how I got my heart broken, isn't it? He's going to come back to me, crawling and begging at my feet! I will show him who is better, and who's in charge!

                                                                   Good Night

Hermione closed her diary felling better than she had in weeks. It's not that she wasn't pretty, but she didn't take care of herself. Now was the time that she should put to work all the make up her mom had bought her as a back to school present.

Deciding to take a hot, relaxing bubble bath, she got undressed and went for it.

Half an hour later, Hermione was in the bathtub, happy with herself and planning her revenge on the man she had loved for three long years.

Oh my God, a thought suddenly came to her mind; I will be like a Seduction Goddess! That is such a great name and it fits what I will be doing so well.

Uh, oh, we have a problem! Harry and Ron! They are guys too! I can't do that to them. They have never and would never hurt me, and I don't want to lose my best friends.

So then, it's settled! I will break guys' hearts, except Ron and Harry's.

I am so bad!
