The summer came to an end much more quickly than anyone wanted. But in addition to dreading the end of summer, everyone anticipated the start of school. For Draco it meant his chance to prove his worth to the Dark Lord. For Hermione it was a chance to face the person whose piercing gray eyes had haunted her dreams all summer. For Harry it was a chance to get back to school and Quiddich and all the other activity's that would keep his mind off the war. Ron just hoped that being at school would bring the old Hermione back to him.
Ron, Harry and Hermione walked toward the back of the train, looking for and empty compartment.
"If it isn't Potty, Weasel and the mudblood." Sneered a voice from behind them.
Ron had Draco pinned up against the wall before anyone else realized what had happened. "If you ever say that again I'll -------"
"You'll what?" Draco asked using his free arm to wave off Crabbe and Goyle. When Ron didn't answer "Just what I thought. You can't do anything to me. But I can make your life a living hell. Which I fully plan on doing for you and every other mudblood and muggle lover on this train. And you can do nothing to stop me." with that Draco pushed Ron off of him and walked over to Hermione. He expected her to back away, or make some sort of gesture of fear. But she stood her ground as he walked closer and closer. Draco put his hand on Hermione's cheek. "How's my little mudblood?" He sneered.
"Fuck off, Malfloy." When Draco didn't move she leaned in close and whispered in his ear "I know about your mother." Draco turned white and dropped his hand. He had been careful to keep knowledge of what had happened to his mother a private matter. He hadn't forgotten that he'd seen Hermione outside his mother's room, but he'd hoped she'd just been passing through and had known nothing of what had happened.
"You don't know anything Granger." He hissed. "Come on boys. Lets go find someone else to torture."
Hermione tried to catch his eye as he left, but he averted her gaze.
What was that about?" Harry asked once Draco was gone.
"Nothing!" Hermione stormed off down the corridor. Ron ran after her. "Hermione!" he pleaded. Harry sighed and walked slowly after them.
A/N sorry this chapter is so short. The next will be wayyyyyyyyyyy longer, I promise.
