Potions and Magnets

Hermoine woke up the next morning, her head still throbbing from the argument the previous night. She got dressed and walked out of the common room and down to the Hospital Wing. Perhaps Madam Pomfrey would have something she could use to ease her headache a bit.

After swallowing two little pills and feeling a tingling sensation throughout her head that relieved the pain, Hermoine walked towards the Great Hall for breakfast. Since it was considerably early, it was still pretty empty. She found a stack of schedules at the end of each table. Hermoine shuffled through them, took hers, Draco's and Blaise's, took some toast, and headed back to the Gryffindor common room.

On the way there, she ran straight into Blaise's chest. "Ooo Hermoine, I know I'm sexy, but you have Draco. Although I wouldn't refuse it" he said with an evil grin on his face. Hermoine slunk into Draco's arms with a sickened expression on her face. She liked being in his arms, and he liked holding her there, though he might not want to admit it at the current moment to her.

"Oh I brought this for you," she said, handing the boys toast and the schedules. "First class is with your former house and former head. Wonder how he took the news" Hermoine said munching on a piece of toast.

Draco draped an arm over her and they continued to walk along the hallways. Hermoine sighed. "I missed this place" she said dreamily while staring off into space. Draco gave her a small smile as they walked outside into the fresh morning air.

"Why aren't we going to the Great Hall?" Blaise asked in a bored tone as he sat down against a tree. "Because it's always crowded the first day, and I have a headache so I don't need noise at the moment" Hermoine said while lying back on the grass. Draco came up behind her and lifted her up some so he could slide underneath of her. She was now lying against him with her head on his chest.

Hermoine tensed up. She liked the new Draco a lot, but she seemed to think all of the snuggling and kissing was just a show being put on for Blaise's on personal enjoyment. She didn't know if he liked her, but she wished he would tell her, and soon.

The bell rang and the three picked themselves up and walked back into the school and down the stairs to the potions room. Hermoine walked in first and took a seat to herself, with an empty desk beside her. She saw Harry sitting with Neville and Ron sitting in a single desk by himself. Serves him right, Hermoine thought to herself, recalling the memory in her mind.

Draco and Blaise walked in a few minutes after her getting many glares from the Slytherins. Blaise had started to walk towards the Slytherins as a habit, but realized what he was doing and turned towards the Gryffindor side of the room. "I always liked Red and Gold better than Green and Silver" Blaise said loud enough for the Slytherins to hear.

Draco kept his eyes on his goal. The seat next to Hermoine. He made his way swiftly and quickly over to the desk and sat down. He looked across the room and obtained many glares and disapproving looks from the Slytherins. He looked at Pansy. There was a hint of wanting in her eyes as she stared at him.

Professor Snape stormed into the room, apparently not too pleased with the loss of his "loyal" Slytherins. He eyed Draco sitting next to Hermoine as if to criticize the fact that they were now friends. "Take the notes down on the board" he said through clenched teeth and waved his wand, making notes appear.

The classroom was filled with the scratching of quills. The potion was untitled and Hermoine knew that Snape had something up his sleeve. After everyone had finished copying everything down, Snape stood up from his desk. "I have a list of partners up here on my desk. Please join your partner in creating this potion. When you're finished, each and every one of you will be drinking it" he said with a smirk.

Hermoine and Draco walked up and found that Draco was paired with Pansy and Hermoine was with Blaise. "I really don't trust him" Hermoine said with a pleading look to Draco. Draco turned to Snape. "Snape could you please let me be with Hermoine? I think she would be more com…" Draco began but Snape cut him off. "That pairs are final Mr. Malfoy. Now please take a seat by your partner and get to work on your potion."

Draco walked over to Pansy whose eyes were filled with delight. Draco felt sick to his stomach as he watched Pansy walking towards him. She took hold of his hand. "Come on partner. Let's get started" she squealed. She dragged Draco over to a set of desks as far away from Hermoine and Blaise as she could possibly get.

Hermoine edged her way over to Blaise who was not calming his wandering eyes at all. It was clear that this potions lesson was sure to be the longest yet. She sat down in the desk next to him and he edged his chair closer. "Ummm Blaise, can you go get the potion ingredients?" Hermoine asked sweetly. He nodded and got the stuff.

They mixed the potion together and waited for everyone to finish. Hermoine could tell Draco was having a hard time with Pansy. She was clasping onto his arm and running her fingers through his hair. She watched him shudder and push her away, but she just kept crawling back. Hermoine watch a small grin appear on Snape's face as he watched the two in action.

The rest of the class finished their potions slowly but steadily. Snape had a small smile on his face once again which made Hermoine feel very uncomfortable. "Everyone please take a vial of your potion. You will each be drinking it" Snape said, watching them carefully.

Everyone in the class took a vial and sipped it down. They felt nothing at first. Then Hermoine felt herself being jerked over towards Blaise. Oh no, Hermoine thought. Not a magnetic potion.
