"Draco Malfoy is the biggest jerk I know!" Hermione shouted flinging her bags down onto the table. She had finally made it to the Leaky Cauldron.
"So you noticed at long last." Ron commented sarcastically, "What did he do to you?"
"He ran straight into me and didn't say sorry. Then I asked why he was wearing muggle clothes and he just bit my head off!" She said angrily.
"Sounds just like Malfoy to me!" Harry added.
Ron chuckled, "He hasn't changed a bit!"
"Hmm."
"Come on, we better get back to Grimmauld Place or me mum will have a fit." Ron told them getting up.
"Ok"
The week at Grimmauld Place seemed to fly by for Hermione. Before she new it she was boarding the Hogwarts express for the last time.
"Ron, Harry. I have to go to the Heads compartment for now but I'll come and find you in a minute." Said the already robed Hermione.
"OK then. If we don't see you on the train we'll see you during the feast. Won't we?" Harry asked.
"Sure" She responded and with a small wave she turned and entered the train.
After shoving her way through waves of students Hermione finally reached the heads carriage to find Professor Dumbledore and Malfoy waiting inside.
"Hello, Professor," she said smiling at the old man. She then turned to face Malfoy. "Please don't tell me your head boy!"
Malfoy smirked and flashed his shinning head boy badge.
Noooo. He's going to make my life a living hell! Although… wait there is no although!
"Well then, Granger. Isn't this going to be a fun year?" He remarked sarcastically.
"Look; can we at least try to get on? I mean I don't want to spend all year arguing and I'm sure you don't."
"If you say so, Granger. But I can't promise anything." Draco plonked himself down on the chairs.
"Cool." Hermione seated her opposite the Slytherine, "So, how was your summer?"
"Do you want the truth or the lie?"
"Truth!" She told him eagerly.
"My summer was bloody awful. My fathers dead, my mothers deserted me for fighting with the Order, I have no friends because they're all in Azkaban and I stayed most of the time in the Leaky Cauldron; skanky place." Draco looked disgusted.
"Hey! It's not skanky, its only skanky to snobs like you! Maybe you should be nicer to people rather than be nasty to them all the time; you might have more friends that way."
Draco frowned. "Hmm, I suppose so."
"Wait, did you just agree with me?" Hermione looked confused while Draco just nodded. "Wow! I must be dreaming; the Draco Malfoy just agreed with me, the mudblood! Wow!"
Draco chuckled then smiled.
"Malfoy, was that a smile?" Hermione seemed bewildered; she had never seen him smile before.
"Yes that was a smile. And don't call me Malfoy, that's my fathers' surname. I am Draco Black. Or Master, sir, lord, I don't mind. Just not Malfoy."
"Draco." She tried out the name for herself, "It suits you."
Draco smile once again, Hermione smiled back.
After an endless conversation about people and their smiles the train grew to a halt.
"We better go and show the first years where to go." Hermione said standing up.
Suddenly the carriage door burst open.
"Hermione, there you are. Why didn't you come and join- Malfoy, what are you doing here?" Ron looked disgusted.
"This is the Heads carriage, and, if u haven't noticed, I'm head boy." Draco explained.
"What! Why did Dumbledore make the ferret head boy?"
Draco pulled out his wand and began to say a spell when Hermione grabbed his arm.
"Draco! You're head boy! You're not supposed to get in trouble, well at least not on the first day! Any way we need to get going."
Hermione walked out of the carriage and dragged a reluctant Draco with her.
After they had left Ron turned to Harry.
"Did Mione just call him Draco?" A confused Harry nodded. "What is the world coming to?"
"I don't know. I just don't know."
