Chapter 2- Hermione
Ugh, what in the world was Dumbledore thinking when he put that git with Ron and I? That was a stupid move (no, I didn't say that). Probably a new plan for house unity, and to get his head bitten off!
Ron and Malfoy are practicing self-control not to get into a fistfight. One of them is going to let that restraint go any minute now. I can only wait and stop Ron. America is wonderful though! It's been my dream to come here. I've been here for only a half-day.
In AA (double A is what we call it), there are no house systems. To tell the truth, I miss sharing a dormitory with Lavender and Parvati. There are to wings to the castle separated by a hallway: an east and west wing. The east wing is where the Dining Hall, classrooms, and public study rooms are. The west wing is where our rooms are. Yes, I said rooms. It's like a muggle hotel. Each floor has a year's rooms. We are on the 6th floor. To get to the floor, you press a button corresponding to the floor, and slide down to the floor on a slide. Walking up is a breeze; you press a button the same way, step on a mat, and you zoom up. Cool, as Americans say. Ron is enjoying the slide.
I have made two friends, Tina Smith and Samantha 'Sam' Patterson. Both are nice girls and don't care about blood. Most people here don't! Poor Malfoy. I can see his pain. He has made a lasting impression on the girls here. They've started a fan club for his looks. I don't blame them. Oh I did NOT just think that! Malfoy had just come up to me.
"Granger, shouldn't you be down at breakfast with Weasel?" Malfoy sneered.
"Ferret-face, mind to accompany me downstairs?" I asked him. His jaw dropped open in surprise and he said nothing. He just followed me down. AA had no house tables; they instead had small circular tables seating 10. We sat down and ate in silence. The food here is wonderful. It may not be as good as Hogwarts but it's acceptable.
Surprisingly, there are no uniforms here. There are clothing rules though. Charms is called Wandwork and there is no Divination. Today is a free day. Malfoy followed us around yesterday, so he probably will today. Ron just went to the bathroom, so Malfoy and I are left alone to roam the grounds. Hurray! Not.
"Granger, why aren't you screaming at me?" Malfoy asked in mock concern.
"You want me to start?" I asked, irritated. I wanted to see what his reaction would be if I was nice to him.
"No, I like you this way mudblood." Malfoy said. I ignored him. I'm sick of that term! Just then Ron came back.
"Let's explore the castle, Hermione!" Ron exclaimed. He had been ignoring Malfoy.
"WILL YOU TWO STOP IGNORING EACH OTHER!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. Malfoy may continue being civil if Ron and I were civil back. Narcissa Malfoy had actually joined the Order after Lucius went to Azkaban. She is a valuable member too.
"Mione, what's gotten into you?" Ron asked surprised. I was fed up with both of them. What was worse, I was actually falling for Dra- I mean Malfoy! He is actually a nice person once you get to know him. That's what's scaring me…
So, what do you think? Tell me by reviewing. I'm going on vacation till next Saturday, so don't except any updates till then. The next chapter's going to be in Terry's POV. Well, bye for now and thanks for reading!
