Disclaimer: I am only 14 and still in school so I only own the plot. I do not own any of the lovely characters J.K. Rowling created. (Although I really wish I did.)
Small Summary: Even though Hermione puts on the perfect persona at school her life is a living hell. Her stepfather abuses her and her mother is no help at all, drinking away her problems. When one summer Hermione is raped all the faith she has left in the world disappears and she returns to school a changed person. The most unexpected person helps to pull her out of this, Draco Malfoy.

Hermione stormed back into Harry and Ron's compartment after her first round. She made an angry sound and flopped onto the seat opposite the. They stared at her wide eyed as she crossed her arms and glared at them.
"Err…'Mione? What's wrong?" Said Harry tentatively.
"WHAT'S WRONG? Malfoy is Head Boy! That's what's wrong!" She said back. Clearly angry out of her mind.
"Your joking!" Said Ron "That git got Head Boy!"
"Yes, Ronald. Ferret boy is now Head boy." She then shuffled along the seat and looked out the window in thought. Harry and Ron looked nervously at her and then continued their conversation quietly.
Hermione was deep in thought. ' Why is he like that? I don't get it. He could at least try to be nice! And to think I thought he was my 'superman'. God maybe I need mental help. Just cause I was tired and he is quite hot you have to admit. I cant believe I threw myself at him like that. Arghhh…I am the biggest fool…'
"Harry, Ron. I'm going to get changed into my robes okay?" They mumbled something like "yea, whatever…" back as she strolled out the door.

Draco sat in an empty compartment. He was trying to avoid none other than Pansy Parkinson, the stupid girl could seem to get it into her head that they were not together and he did not like her. She just didn't want to give up. ' Fucking Pansy and her fucking stubbornness…' he thought 'I could be with my friends right now if you weren't always lurking near by.' He looked at his watch and saw it was time for his rounds…actually 5 past time for his rounds. He groaned and stood up with a lot of effort and strode out the door, bumping into Hermione Granger 'God…what a coincidence.'
"Sorry…" he said roughly and brushed past her leaving her in a state of shock that he had apologized. While he was doing his rounds he pondered…
'Why do I find her attractive…she's smart, kind, honest, pretty…stop this is not helping the situation! Your Father would Crucio you if he knew you were thinking about a mudblood this way! But the problem is…that's the only thing stopping me from liking her…my father…oh…and my reputation…'
He returned to the empty cabin and sat once again…staring at the blank wall…thinking of honey brown curls and hazel eyes.
