An Unexpected Romance

Head Boy

"As we go on, we remember all the times we spent together and as our live change from whatever we will still be friends forever..."

"Harry! Ron!" Hermione grinned. "It's good to see you again, Hermione." Harry said as he gave her a hug. "Yeah what he said" Ron smiled. " You guys are never going to believe this!" said Hermione still grinning from ear to ear. "Why? What happened?" said a rather confused Harry. "Professor Dumbledore made me Head Girl!" Hermione nearly screamed. " Oh my gosh Hermione that's incredible!" Ron smiled. " Congratulation Hermione, you really deserve it. Here, have a candy for all your hard work." Fred and George smiled innocently. But Hermione knew better. " Ha ha nice try guys." She smiled back. " Darn it!" frowned George. " So who's head boy?" Ron asked. " Actually," said Hermione " I was hoping one of you would know." " Sorry" said both boys shrugging their shoulders. At that moment a frog landed on Ron's shoe and they recognized it as Neville's toad, Trevor. "Good morning Neville." Harry sighed. "What's up?" Neville smiled. " Oh nothing much...we saw Hagrid...Hermione's been made head girl...you know, the usual." Harry smiled. " Really? So who's head boy?" " We don't know." Hermione replied. " Have you heard anything from anybody?" "Um Neville..." Ron started. " No I haven't heard anything about head boy yet..." " Neville..." Ron tried to speak but his words went unnoticed. " I'll ask around if you like." "Neville." Ron's impatience grew. " Thanks we'll ask around too." Harry added. "NEVILLE!" Ron shouted. " Whaaa..." Neville jumped. " Your frog is still on my foot..." " Oh right." Neville said, his heart still pounding. " Well I better go and say bye to Gram." Neville smiled, gathering Trevor in his hand, and walked away. " Well, well, well. Look what the dementors dragged in." the trio heard a familiar voice and turned around only to meet eye to eye with the one they missed least over the summer...Draco Malfoy. "Oh what a pleasant surprise." Hermione rolled her eyes. " If you keep up that attitude, this year wont be a pleasant one for you, Granger." Draco smirked. " Leave her alone." Ron said through clenched teeth. "I didn't come here to torture you, I've got all year for that." he said, giving them the patented Draco Malfoy Smirk of Arroganceā„¢. Turning slightly, he showed them his shiny new badge that held the words Hermione feared most: Head Boy. " I came to brag instead. " No! " Hermione gasped" No it cant be!" "What's this? Miss-Know-It-All can't believe her own eyes." Draco laughed. " Oh my gosh Draco, is that a gray hair?" Harry asked, knowing full well what pride Draco took in his looks. " WHERE! NO NOT MY HAIR!" he panicked and with that he set off to find a mirror and probably some hair dye. Ron gave a loud snort, in effort not to laugh as Draco ran off but Hermione stood still, horror-stricken. Mumbling something like " How could Dumbledore do this to me?" Hermione ran onto the bus, seated herself, and locked the door.
