Chapter 2
After the sorting and feasting Hermione found herself in front of Dumbledore with Malfoy.
"Follow me" Dumbledore said "To your new rooms"
They followed him up staircases and halls and then finally stopped in front of a large picture of a
very handsome man on a big black horse. He grinned at Hermione.
"Hermione, Draco, this is William H. Hart. He will be the guarder of your rooms." Dumbledore
said, waving his arm towards the portrait.
"I will guard your rooms with utmost care. No one shall pass without my knowledge." William H.
Hart replied loudly, and hitting his chest with his fist.
"Big gorilla" muttered Malfoy. Hermione ignored him.
"Professor, what is our password?" she asked sweetly.
"Oh! Almost forgot!" Dumbledore said raising his hands "Your new password is 'Sweet Pea', alright, you
can change your room passwords when you want. And you can also change the interior color of your rooms
and common room as well. Have a nice night" he grinned and walked away.
"Sweet pea" Hermione said to William H. Hart.
"Certainly" he said and revealed the door.
Hermione walked in the room. The room was made up of red and green. It had a dark brown
wooden floor. A fire was already blazing.
"Do you want to change the colors?" Hermione asked sullenly "If not, then everything is going
black". Naturally, Draco would have tried to argue with her but he really didn't mind black. So he just
didn't respond, and walked into his room. Hermione rolled her eyes and flicked her wand. Everything that
was red or green turned black. Some of it was lined with silver and gold.
'Looks good' Hermione thought walking to her room. She walked up to the door and whispered
"I want my new password to be 'Death and Destruction'." Her door popped open and she walked in.
She flopped down on the bed and started undoing her shoes. She undressed down to her
black underwear and strapless bra.
'A shower sounds good' she thought. She walked into the bathroom and looked around. There
were two sinks surrounded by black marble. A marble walled shower with no curtain.
And across the room from the shower was the kiddiesized pool tub with five faucets. She walked over to
the other wall that had a towel rack with only two towels: silver and gold. She grabbed the gold on and
returned to her room. She undressed and wrapped the fluffy towel around her.
Draco threw himself onto the bed. This year was gong to be terrible. He could already feel it. Not
only did his father want him to receive the dark mark this year, but the fact that he didn't want it was bad
enough. He didn't want to end up like his Dad, a slave to a monster. Getting up off the bed, he felt his leg
tinge with pain. He bent down and lifted his pant leg up and noticed a small bruise above his ankle. He
thought back to the train ride and remembered how the mudblood took him down and pinned him to the
floor. It was the first time anyone had ever struck back at him, it was different. And he didn't like it. 'Damn
mudblood' he thought. He stretched his back and felt his shoulders creak and his muscles stretch. 'A warm
shower will help me' he got up, undressed into his black silk boxers and headed into the bathroom that
connected the two rooms together. He was about to open the door when he heard one shut. He opened his
door and walked in.
Hermione walked in and shut the door behind her with a click. She undid the clasp holding her hair
up and twisted her head a couple of times to get it all down. It felt good to let her hair down and as
Hermione was about to drop her towel she heard the door open from Malfoy's room. She quickly whirled
around to face him and yell. He walked in the room with just his black boxers on and Hermione felt her eyes
drop to his muscled chest and his boxers that hung dangerously low. She tore her eyes away from his chest
and looked up into his face.
Draco walked in the door and froze. Hermione was standing next to the shower with just a golden
towel wrapped around her. Her hair was disheveled around her face as she glared angrily at him and then as
her eyes traveled down his body to his chest. She looked stunning, even he would admit it.
"Like what you see?" he asked smirking.
"screw you" she said angrily "And get out, I was going to shower"
"I don't see why your mad" he spat back "I should be the pissed one, knocking me down and
beating me. I just might tell Dumbledore that your being physically abusive to your fellow Head Boy." He
smirked again.
"You do that" Hermione said "I was in here first so I get the shower" she put her hand on her hip
"Okay?" .
Draco grinned again "Go ahead, no one is stopping you" he motioned towards the shower.
"You're such a pervert Malfoy. Now get out or I will hex you into your next life"
Draco looked into her eyes and saw pure hate and anger "Ladies first" he said and walked out. He
shut the door behind him. 'Wow' he thought 'Someone has anger issues, and was I just flirting with
Granger?' he asked himself. He shuddered softly and sat down on his bed again. 'She did look pretty sexy in
that towel though, she's got some nice legs too' he said to himself and then silently cursed himself 'UGH!
What are you saying Draco? She is a mudblood! She isn't even worthy to be in the same room as you!'
Thinking those thoughts, Draco fell asleep.
Hermione stepped out of the shower and walked into her room.
"Damn that Malfoy to hell!" she gritted through her teeth "So much for my calm shower". She
quickly changed into her pajamas and fell into a
deep slumber herself.
Hermione woke up the next morning and threw on her robes. As she walked to breakfast she
grabbed her schedule out of her bag. She cringed inwardly as she saw that she had Double Potions right
after breakfast. And then she remembered that since her and Malfoy were the Heads, that they had to share
classes. They even had to sit next to each other. 'I can deal with Double Potions' she thought 'But I know
for a fact that he will literally shit a brick when he sees that we have Double Muggle Studies' she smiled
cruelly. He's in for a surprise "Sucker" she said evilly while sitting next to Harry and Ron.
Draco walked into the Potions class and sat down near the front. Hermione followed and sat down
next to him.
"Ready for Double Potions? I sure am" Draco said sharply.
"Ready for Double Muggle Studies?" Hermione spat. Draco paled
"I am NOT taking Muggle Studies" he said angrily.
"Yes you are Malfoy, you're also taking Double Herbology as well" she said smiling at him.
"Damn bloody mudbl" Draco began saying but was cut short from Snape entering the dungeon
and slamming the behind him.
"Today class, we will begin working on a very complex potion. This potion is called the 'Elamis Potion'."
When Snape said 'Complex potion' Hermione straitened her back and began taking notes.
"The Elamis Potion is an extremely powerful potion if you make it correct. There are terrible side
affects if not taken with precaution. The Elamis Potion enables one to see an enemy as a friend, and a friend
as an enemy. This may not seem to be a very resourceful potion, but it does make it clear who is your enemy
and who is your friend. You will each be sampling this potion, and if you make a mistake. It will definitely be
clear. Pair up into two's. Now begin" he waved his arm toward the chalk board that listed the ingredients.
Hermione pulled up her cauldron and set it on the table. Draco sneered "You really think we would use your
dirty cauldron Granger?" He pushed hers aside and placed his in its place.
Hermione didn't want to fight, so she grabbed hers and set it on the floor again. They began their
potion. Hermione began by slicing chicken livers into cubes while Draco mashed beetle wings into a powder.
They finished neatly and their potion was finished which was a dark black color that changed into a
light yellow color which switched back to black and so forth. They each poured the potion into the flasks
provided and finished up. Snape came by and grabbed their flasks.
"Excellent job" he mumbled "Class, you should be finished with your potions. Bring them up to my
desk. On Friday we will be sampling the fruit of our labors" he grinned shrewdly and sat down at his desk.
Hermione walked out of the class and began walking to the great hall. She was starving. 'Spending
four hours in a cold dungeon makes one cranky and starving' she thought angrily.
After eating she walked up to her room and changed into her muggle clothes. Which was a black
shirt that said 'I Really Hate You' and black bell bottoms with chains hanging from pocket to pocket. She walked
out into the common room and saw that Malfoy left his bedroom door open. She looked into the bathroom
and didn't see him, 'He must be down eating lunch' she said silently. She stepped inside his room and
inhaled the deep smell of boys cologne.
'Damn Malfoy' she thought angrily 'He just has to smell good too'. She walked over to his bed and
saw that it was still unmade.
"What do you think you're doing?" Draco drawled angrily. Hermione jumped and turned around to
see Draco leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed.
"Shut up and leave me alone" she snapped and tried to push him out of the door way. Draco
grabbed her wrists again and said "No way. Tell me what you were doing in my room Granger".
Hermione looked up into his steel eyes without flinching. "Nothing. I saw the door open and just
came in." He glared at her, his eyes unblinking.
Hermione glared back "You can't intimidate me with your glares anymore Malfoy. So grow up" she pulled
her wrists out of his grasp and pushed him out of the way. "By the way" she said while walking away "We
have Muggle Studies in ten minutes."
Hermione went to her room and put her makeup on. Thick black eyeliner and black eyeshadow.
She also added black leather bracelets and black earrings. She made it to Muggle Studies ten minutes late. She
looked around the room for Malfoy and didn't see him
"Damn Malfoy" she muttered while sitting down.
After a hour and a half Draco walked in the door. Hermione whipped around in her seat and gave
him the iciest glare she could muster. Draco flinched inwardly, her glare could have matched one of his own.
Instead of glaring back, he smiled brightly at her "Hi" he said while sitting down. He was clearly enjoying
seeing her enraged.
"You're such a jackass" she whispered
"I thought we already went through that yesterday" Draco smiled again.
"Fuck you" she said
"What was that Hermione?" the Professor asked. Hermione blushed dark red "I said 'Malfoy,
you got some lint stuck on you'" she replied quickly. Draco started laughing into his hand while the Professor
continued with their lesson. He looked over at Hermione and saw her shaking her head and smiling.
