A/N: YAHOO! 50 REVIEWS!!!!! Anyway, my friend Kristy helped me write this chapter, and all flames will be forwarded to kittyqueen220@yahoo.com.

~Gm, Bo the Wonder Monkey, and Kristy

Hermione woke up blearily.  She felt very confused.  Visions of her dreams swam sickenly thorough her head. There was Harry in it… and Ron… and……someone else. She remembered the conversation that she had had the night before. Along with her dreams, she firmly believed that it had been the most bizarre night of her life.

She shook her head and went over to her dresser. At last, she could wear her own clothes!

She got dressed and headed downstairs.

Draco and Narcissia were both at the table. Narcissia looked as cheerful as ever, but Draco looked like he had spent the last four days on a deserted island without ever sleeping. He was still in his night clothes.

Narcissia smiled at Hermione and showed her to her seat. As Hermione sat down, she looked at Draco's bed hair. She was compelled to sit as far away from him as she could, although she didn't know why.

Narcissia drew herself up proudly and picked up her glass. "As you will notice," she said, "this morning our glasses are filled with milk, not wine."

Draco looked up sharply. "Why?" he said somewhat franticly.

Narcissia smiled and looked at Hermione. "I asked Fenny to fill them with milk. Milk is healthy and helps build strong bones."
Draco still stared at her blankly. "But why is the wine gone?"

Narcissia pretended not to hear him. "All of our meals will have milk, with the exception of Sunday dinner."

"Yes, but why don't we have any wine?" Draco said, not absorbing a word his mother said.

Hermione finished quickly, and asked to be excused. Draco had been staring at his milk, muttering "Why?" for the last ten minutes. Narcissia elbowed him, and he straightened up.

"Yes, but in a moment. I need to tell you our plans first," she said. "Today, Draco will be giving you a tour of the grounds. Fenny has packed a lunch for the both of you, and I fully expect Ms. Granger to be able to give me a description of the grounds by the time day is out. You will leave as soon as you are ready." She sent a poisonous look at Draco's hair. "You may both go."
Draco sent a final dirty look at his glass of milk, and trudged upstairs.

Hermione followed him up, smiling to herself. He was definitely not a morning person.
After a half an hour of silence from Draco's room, Hermione softly knocked on the door. When there was no answer, she walked in. Draco, fully dressed, was laying on his bed. His hair was already slicked back and he was wearing his boots, but he looked sound asleep.

Hermione rolled her eyes, and sat down on his bed next to him. "Draco," she said softly and sweetly, "it's Pansy."
The effect was instantaneous.  In one swift moment, he leapt out of bed and ran out into the hallway. Hermione sighed and followed him.

Draco glared at Hermione. She was more evil then he had thought. Pulling that trick to wake him up, getting him to spill the beans on Pansy last night, taking all the wine away from him… That mudblood should be in Slytherin. Except the fact she was a mudblood.

Why couldn't she be a Slytherin pure blood? Part of his brain said. Then I could go out with her. Well she's not! She's a mudblood, and besides, she's stupid. Go get Hermione! You know you want to! Oh, shut up. Stop telling yourself that you're too good for her. It's the other way around and you know it. Ha. That thought never once crossed my mind. But you think it every time you call her a mudblood…

Draco didn't need his evil half to tell him that. He knew it was true.

Hermione sighed loudly. "Exactly when does this stupid tour start?" she asked crossly. "Because if this is going to be like the last one, I might as well leave right now."
Draco rolled his eyes. Like she had anything better to do. "We're going to the stables," he said. "Our horses aren't much different from Muggle ones, so I doubt you care."

Hermione gave a cry of delight. "Horses? Really? I love horses! I've never ridden one before! But one time my parents and I were in London and we rode in a carriage, but that's just not the same!"

Draco shook his head. "The horses are right there, but if you call them, they'll come to you." Hermione smiled excitedly. "Which one will I be riding?" she asked.
Draco thought a moment. "We won't be riding any, not now. There isn't enough time," he said.

Hermione looked down sadly. "Oh," she muttered.

They walked over to the stables. "Those three are father's, their names are Naeal, Philip, and Blaine. Those two are mother's. Their names are Trina and Audrey. These two are mine. Their names are Fett and Jack," he listed off. Hermione looked breathlessly at each one.

Draco laughed and motioned for her to follow him. "Honestly, you're such a head case."

They toured the grounds, Draco showing her the orchards, the creek, the fields, and the ponds.

Granger started to set up for their lunch in a large field, while Draco rooted through the food. He pulled out a large bottle of wine, with a note that said From Roosta. Draco hugged the bottle. "I always knew Roosta's heart was in the right place," he sighed. Hermione grabbed the bottle away from him.

"No wine! I can't find my way back by myself, and I doubt you could tell me if you're drunk," she said firmly.

Draco fell back. "Fine. Be that way. See if I care." He looked up at the clouds. Hmm… that one looked kind of like Dumbledore… Draco grabbed a sandwich from the basket. "So, any questions, O slave driver?" he asked Hermione lazily.

"Just one," Hermione said. "What's in the forest?" she asked, looking towards a heavily wooded area underneath a hill.

Draco looked at the woods, and then at Hermione. If she knew what was in that forest… "N…nothing," he mumbled. He being a rotten liar. Hermione only laughed and moved closer. "What's in that forest?" she asked. She obviously thought that it was a game.
Draco sat up and looked Hermione directly in the eye. "Don't ever go in that forest. You might think going in the Forbidden Forest is no big deal, but if you go in that forest, invisibility cloak or not, you will die within five minutes," he said seriously. He checked to see if Hermione understood what he was saying. She simply shrugged.

"Okay," she said. She didn't sound very convincing.
Draco shook his head and stood up, and called the horses Jack and Fett. When Hermione was finished, she got on Fett, and they both rode home.
