On the train she began to look around for Harry & Ron. They had always shared the same train compartment. Then from behind she heard a faint shouting,
"HERMIONE"
She turned around to see Harry and Ron coming toward her, and she smiled. She was so happy to see them, they exchanged hugs and cheek kisses.
"Hey Mione," said Ron with some hesitation in his voice, "how was your summer?" he asked looking her up and down.
"Fantastic, yours?" she replied
"Gee Mione, you have changed quite a bit" said Harry noting her outfit.
"And so what, if you have a problem with it, out with it." She snapped at their alarmed looks, she relaxed her tone and said,
"Look I'm sorry I haven't been myself lately, let's just go sit down."
Just then she heard a loud voice booming over the train
"HERMIONE GRANGER, CALLING HERMIONE GRANGER!" yelled the voice
Hermione raised her hand and said "that's me why, is there a problem?"
A small boy approached her and Hermione looked at him in disbelief, this boy seemed way too small for that voice that he had.
"YOU ARE TO GO THREE CARS DOWN"
"And who said this"
"PROFFESOR MCGONAGALL"
"What for?" she asked, puzzled.
"HEAD BOY/GIRL COMPARTMENT"
Hermione squealed with delight, she had almost forgot. Now that she was Head Girl, she had certain privileges that others didn't. so she excused herself from Ron and Harry, and walked away with the boy unaware when Ron whispered to Harry
"That's not our mione" and sadly walked away.
The boy had lead Hermione to an elegant looking car with a chandelier at the top, the walls were decorated in warm brown colors, and she found herself wondering who the Head Boy would be. He's probably smart, nice, clean cut, charming, and…
"MALFOY?" she screeched, she couldn't believe it
"That's my name don't wear it out." He smirked.
She turned to the boy and said calmly, "Look, this guy has been my mortal enemy since I came to Hogwarts, I refuse to share a compartment with him" and with that she left them both standing there.
She looked around for Harry and Ron. When she found their compartment, she found them, accompanied by Neville Longbottom and Dean Thomas. Apparently there was no more room for her, and they were so into their discussion of the summer Quidditch games that they didn't even notice Hermione staring at them.
So with a heavy heart she walked back to the head Girl/Boy compartment and reluctantly sat herself across from Malfoy.
"So," he said, (obviously smirking) eyeing her up and down, resting his eyes boldly on her legs that were being outlined by the cut of the jeans, "How was your summer?"
