Chapter 6

"Hermione, what's wrong?" Ginny asked over breakfast the next morning, Harry and Ron were also in the conversation

"Nothing...Its just Malfoy"

"I swear Hermione if the bastard ever touches you, ill tear him limb from limb, I don't care if he is Head boy," Ron said going as red as his hair

"Talking about me Weasley" came the voice of the head boy, Draco looked at Ron "Maybe you should go see Madame Pomfrey Weasley, you look a little weird, but then again you always do"

"Shove off Malfoy" Ginny said and Harry tightened his grip on her hand so she flashed a smile at him.

"What do you want Malfoy?" asked a irritated Hermione, rubbing her temple "I have a migraine and don't need bull from you right now"

"Just came to see you about our room, you seen to have left things every where an-" Draco looked at Hermione who was trying to hide away and to the rest of the listening gryffindors they had eyes wide open in shock "Oh deer Granger didn't you tell them that we have to sleep in the same room, have I just put my foot in it?" Draco asked teasingly, then he got serious "Any way come on Granger, its the second day back and we need order, don't want all of you filthy mudblood things touching my expensive things" Draco stormed out of the great hall.

"Hermione?" Harry asked

"Not now guys, ill explain later" she ran out following Draco leaving most of gryffindor house shocked.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hermione caught up with Draco just as he walked through the door to their common room, she ran to him, seafing with anger, she pushed him in to the nearest wall so quickly that Draco didn't have chance to stop her

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ABOUT MALFOY?" she asked

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ABOUT GRANGER?" he mimicked her, after noticing that she help his wrists to the wall

"Malfoy, why did you have to tell my friends?" Hermione let go of his wrists and back away from him, she started to cry so she ran off to the bedroom. Draco felt something he had never felt before, guilt, he felt guilty for making her cry. Draco was being very out of character lately mostly around Granger and it was only the second day of school and they hadn't even had their first class. He followed her to the bedroom so see her crying on the bed holding her head in her hands. He walked over to her and asked her what was wrong

"What's wrong Hermione?" he sat next to her. Hermione reached up to him and wrapped her arms around him and cried in to his shoulder even more. Draco put his arms around her waist and rubbed her back "ssh ssh ssh Hermione talk to me please" he said softly.

"Draco" she cried, "Why did you do that? Why?"

"It seemed a good idea to whined you and your friends up...I...im sorry," he said. Hermione stopped crying and smiled as she pulled away from him

"Your being very paradox today Draco"

"So are you, calling me Draco"

"It is your name, is it not" she said with the Malfoy trademark smirk

"Do I detect a bit of rivalry?" Draco asked

"Over what? The smirk, ive had the best teaching me for the last 6 years"

"I did mean what I said, I am sorry about telling them. And also for everything else, for the whole 6 years, im really sorry" Draco said seriously

"It will take more than an apology to make up to me"

"I don't know what else to do, ive never been sorry before, maybe one day you'll forgive me" Draco said and got off the bed and walked to his own.

"There is one thing you can do, but first answer me this one question" Hermione said "Why are you sorry, what brought on this sudden change of heart" Hermione said.

"I just wanted to make amends with you, not gryffindor, pothead or the weasel just you"

"Why im not so special" Hermione told him

"I like you, I want to be friends with you. Blaise is all I have and his only topic of conversation is girls and what to do with them. I can't talk to Crabbe and Goyle, their topic is food and then all they do is grunt. You have descent conversations with people, I realized that before the war, I was going to ask you then but you had to save the word"

"Oh yeah I was a true hero of war" Hermione joked

"Yes you was, not potty of Weasley or even little Weasley, you at least that's what Lucius said, he complained about you for ages, every time we saw him you were all he would talk about how you solved the prophecy, your the brains behind potty and Weasley"

"Why were you so mean to me last night?"

"I wasn't sure if you felt the same way, friends I mean"

"Draco, you could just have asked. I would love to be friends with you, on one condition." Draco nodded "I need you to take me to London tonight, being Friday night and all, no classes tomorrow"

"Wizard London?"

"Muggle London, I want to go out, will you come with me. If not I can go alone just thought it would be better and safer if two went"

"Yeah just let me know what time and ill be ready. Better get to Divination" Draco said, "What you got?"

"Ancient Runes"

Both left for the day's classes that day. Hermione luckily avoided all her friends' questions for the rest of the day; she decided she didn't need to explain to any one who she was a friend with. She hadn't seen Draco much of the day, but when they passed each other she could tell he had changed, quickly but he had changed, he smiled a genuine smile and she thought he even waved at her once, but she saw it out of the corner of her eye so she could have been mistaken.

That night at 8pm Hermione was getting ready, she decided on her knee length boots with a short denim skirt and black rock chick shirt. She walked out in to the common room to find Draco sat there in muggle clothes, black jeans and a black t-shirt. The gothic look suited him. When he saw her he stood.

"Mione, you look nice"

"Thank you, you too, very muggle of you"

"Where are we going?" Draco asked as Hermione stood in the fireplace with a hand full of floo powder in her hand. Draco quickly stood next to her and she shouted

"CLUB X" she dropped the floo and green flames engulfed them. They were transported to what looked like an empty warehouse.

They both stepped out of the fireplace and brushed themselves down. Hermione took Draco's hand and pulled him thought the only exit in the room, this lead to another huge room full of people dancing, very music was playing. She turned to look at Draco

"Ever been clubbin'?" she asked and dragged him off to the bar.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
