Another thing, Min in this flashback is McGonagall, Lorelei is Vector, and Parvulus is Flitwick. One more thing, I'm sorry if my dialogue confuses you; I just believe that when too much narration follows dialogue, the reality is taken away.


Recap-

"Oh shut up Malfoy! Professor Dumbledore is not biased, unlike some people I know, but not everything has got to be about you."

"Of course it does, I'm me."

"Well we'll figure out soon enough, Jolly Ranchers."


Flashback

"With the fall of Voldemort I would have thought that they would see past their differences and get together, but they treat each other as if they don't even exist."

"Now Albus, don't you think it's best to let nature run its own course?"

"Min, if we had let nature take its course, do you think Lily and James would have ever gotten together?"

"…"

"I agree with Albus!"

"Thank you Poppy. See! Poppy agrees with me."

"But Professor, this is Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy. It won't happen, and besides, Lily and James were meant to be together. We won't be as lucky with Hermione and Draco."

"If I remember correctly, Remus, Lilly and James were much, much worse."

"… I suppose you're right, but I'm not helping!"

"I agree with Remus!"

"Alright Min, you don't have to help in this one, but you'll be coming back later when you see how much fun we're going to have."

"We?

"Poppy, Madam Pince, Lorelei, Parvulus, and myself."

"Do you honestly believe that this is going to work?"

"Yes, Remus, I do. In fact, we've already started it."

"You have?"

"Yes, how do you think Mister Malfoy got the position of Head Boy?"

"I KNEW IT! There's no way he could've made the position with his grades!"

"Glad to know you did Min, but now to other matters, did you know Severus has a crush on Trelawney?"

End Flashback


The mischievous headmaster grinned evilly as Draco and Hermione ascended the stone steps, bickering as they did so.

"It's just like when Lily and James were here."


"Oh shut up Malfoy; I don't want Professor Dumbledore thinking we don't get along."

"HA! You wish!"

"Wish as you please, but I'm not letting my position taken away from me. I've worked far too hard for it."

"Yes Granger, too hard."

"Shut up! We're at the top."


"Good Morning Professor."

"Suck up!" hissed Malfoy, "Ow!"

"Is there a problem Mr. Malfoy?"

"Yes there is! She just ki- OW! She did it again!"

"Did what? I didn't do anything." Said Hermione innocently.

"Well, on with this meeting. As both of you know, house unity among seventh-year students isn't exactly at its best..."

snicker

"OW!"

GLARE

If looks could kill, Hermione would be dead by now. Malfoy was obviously pushed past his limit, and was on the very edge of ripping her arm off. Needless to say, there were no more screams of pain throughout the rest of the meeting.

"If I could please continue, house unity isn't at its best so my fellow colleagues and I have come up with a few plans. These plans include Study Group, which will be a program in which eight-person study groups will be composed of two members from every house, an extension on the number of Hogsmeade trips from every three weeks to every weekend, an end of the year trip for seventh years, and a number of formal balls, which will be planned by you and the prefects. The list of study groups is now posted in the Great Hall. Any questions?"

"Just a few professor, how many formal balls are we allowed, and where do we get to go on our trip?"

"Aaaaa… that, Ms. Granger, will have to be discussed between you and Mr. Malfoy. Anymore questions?"

"No, Professor."

"Mr. Malfoy, any questions?"

"No, Professor."

"Then you two may leave, and please have a list of how many formal balls you will have, when you will have them, and a list of where you wish to go on your trip by next week's meeting."

"Good day Professor."

"Good day Ms. Granger, Mr. Malfoy."


Hermione didn't know why, but she had this bad feeling in the bottom of her stomach. Call it woman's intuition if you will, but something told her to worry, and worry she did.
Rushing through the halls, Hermione went running over yet another first year in order to get to the Great Hall before anyone else did to see the Study Group list.

"Merlin's robes Granger! Why are you in such a rush?"

"I want to see who will be in my study group."

"Why?"

"Aren't you curious as to who'sinyours?"

"Yes, but not enough to run over first years."

"Oh shut up! It's not like I meant it."

"But did you say sorry?"

Hermione sighed shakily with frustration as the arrogant bastard of a ferret blocked her way to the front door.

"No, I will next time. Now, let me through."

"Say please."

"MALFOY! IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIMBS IT WILL BE IN YOUR BEST INTRESTS TO GET OUT OF MY WAY!"

"Fine," said Malfoy as he moved out of her way, "no need to get your knickers in a twist Granger."

Hermione walked briskly past Malfoy as she ran to the list posted on the door of the Great Hall.

'ARGGGGG! Since when did Malfoy give ME lessons in behavior? It makes me wonder why the hell Dumbledore ever made him Head Boy… WHY ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT MALFOY RIGHT NOW? JUST LOOK AT THE DAMNED LIST! FINE! damn conscience… JUST GET ON WITH IT!'

Hermione let out another sigh of frustration as she looked for her name on the list of study groups.

"Hermione Granger, Granger, Granger, Granger… AHHHHHHHHHHHH! NOOOO!"


A/N – YAY! I made this chapter longer, but I think I went overboard with all the sectioning… anyway, PLEASE REVIEW!
