"…" is talking

'…' is thinking

"Your Head Boy" gasped Hermione; she grabbed hold of the wall for support. She felt faint.

Malfoy didn't say anything, he just turned pale and his grey eyes turned to shock.

"Miss. Granger, Mr. Malfoy, what's going on? Are your alright?" asked Professor McGonagall to Hermione? She just came out of the Heads/Prefect carriage and saw them.

"Oh, I'm thinking that you two found out about each other" Her sharp eyes surveyed her two students carefully "Well I hope you two will get along, you will be living together you know."

Hermione turned, if possible, even paler. She collapsed onto the floor, wide-eyed.

Malfoy turned paler also. Though he didn't collapse he looked worse then Hermione.

"Now come along, we have to discuss your duties as heads. And some other things" smirked McGonagall.

Hermione slowly got up and walked past Malfoy and McGonagall and into the carriage. Malfoy couldn't even move, he looked like he was ready to retch. McGonagall grabbed his sleeve and pulled him inside.

The carriage was twice the size of the normal ones. It was decorated in all the colours of the houses and the ceiling was made of unbreakable glass. There was a desk made of Mahogany and right behind the desk was the Hogwarts Crest. Beside the desk were two armchairs, one to the right and one to the left. The right one was red and gold and the left one was green and silver. There were also couches that were white. McGonagall pointed to the two devastated teenagers to sit in the arm chairs.

They were so shocked that Hermione sat in the green and silver one and Malfoy, red and gold. McGonagall chuckled and they both looked at her as if she were mad.

'How could she laugh at a time like this? Honestly, I'm going to living with MALFOY' though Hermione.

'I always thought she was mad but now I think shes insane. How the hell could she laugh at a time like this?' Malfoy thought.

"You two must already know about the house unity. But I never thought you would sit in your rival houses colours?" laughed McGonagall.

Hermione looked down and gasped again as she saw she was in the green and silver arm chair. Malfoy didn't even look; he just groaned and put his head between his hands.

Slowly they each stood up and went to their respective seats.

"Ok now listen carefully. This year we will be promoting House Unity therefore every person at Hogwarts will have a partner of which they will attend classes with. That person will be your partner for the whole year. Now since me and Professor Dumbledore have decided it will be house unity, Gryffindor and Slytherin will be together and Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. As the heads of this school you will be each others partner.

Malfoy just sighed and lay back on his armchair. He grumbled something that sounded a lot like "I give up"

Hermione glanced at Malfoy and she too lay back.

"I hope you two are listening you will be telling the prefects this. Professor Dumbledore will be announcing this tonight to the school."

She went on and on about how they have to start, plans, design, close the dances by dancing together and how they will be sharing a common room together.

"Your common room will be linked to the Prefect tower and there will be also a pathway that goes directly into Gryffindor and Slytherin tower. Oh and there are also many shortcuts to different places. You may find this year will be very luxurious for you. There are many more but I will tell you about them in time. The prefects will be coming in ten minutes so please get ready. I will be at the desk if you need help."

She walked and sat down at the desk and went through her papers.

For the next ten minutes the two heads just sat and soaked in that they will be together at least for 18 hours a day. Not counting meals.

Every minute or so one of them would moan or groan or both and McGonagall would just laugh.

By the time the prefects started coming in the two had a bit of colour back in their faces.

Every time a prefect would come in, they would either gasp or laugh, especially the Gryffindor and Slytherin's. When Ron, Harry, Ginny, and Seamus came in they just stared in shock. Malfoy glared at them and looked away. Hermione just gave them a helpless look before gesturing for them to sit down.

Ron and Harry sat down without taking their eyes of the heads. Ginny stared at Hermione and Seamus flicked his eyes between the two students and just got a dazed look in his eyes.

Hermione sighed and she started to speak, "Wel-welcome to your first meeting of the year. As you can tell, this year Head Boy and Head Girl is me and Malfoy." He shot her a filthy look and gestured for her to repeat that. "Er…me and Dr-Dra-Draco"

"Well the first thing I would like to say is…" Hermione repeated what McGonagall said with the help of Malfoy.

The longer the spoke the larger the holes in the prefects' mouths seem to be.

"Well this is your partner for your house unity; Dra-Draco and I am the heads so we are partners. Harry Potter is with Sherry Allyia from Slytherin. Harry breathed a sigh of relief, Sherry was one of those people who don't have the pleasure of making fun of Gryffindor's, and she was quite pretty. Ron Weasly with Pansy Parkinson, Ginny Weasly with Blaise Zabini." And it went on and on, the prefects were paired with prefects so it would maintain balance. "Luna Lovegood with Zacharias Smith" Hermione sighed again and let Malfoy dismiss them.

"Oh and we have a meeting next Monday please be there" added Hermione

"Good job you two, you may go and please meet me at the Entrance Hall after dinner, and I will take you to your Dorms." And with that she left and left two thirsty teenagers standing.

Hermione walked out of the doorway without even a second glance at Malfoy.

She walked back to her compartment with Lavender, Parvati, and Ginny. She was almost there when two strong arms encircled her waist and pulled her into a compartment. She yelped and looked back, she saw Harry grinning playfully at her and he pulled her onto his lap.

Hermione smiled at him and the other boys that were watching her. She got up from Harry's lap and sat down next to him.

"Okay, what do you guys want to know?" asked Hermione knowingly

"How could stand this, having partners for a whole year? Especially for you, you have Malfoy!" said Ron loudly

"It's not my decision" shrugged Hermione

"And why did you put me with Parkinslut?" asked Ron, ignoring her last comment.

"I told you Ron that I don't decide!" replied Hermione heatedly; she threw him an icy glare. Ron's ears went red.

Harry, sensing something between the two, asked, "But aren't you mad that your with Malfoy?" asked Harry quietly

"I'm mad but I don't have a choice!" exclaimed Hermione, "Why don't you guys just shut the hell up and leave me alone!" She got up and stormed out of the compartment.

"Is it me or is she a bit too….what's the word…" Seamus thought for a second

"Touchy?" mumbled Ron

"Emotional" added Harry

"Queer" squeaked Neville

They all thought for a second…

And in unison they all said, "She's definitely on her monthly"

"All fir's years come wit' me, 'eads go teh hea's carriag'" Yelled Hagrid on the top of his voice.

Hermione headed, as instructed to the heads carriage, she went to the front carriage and saw that Malfoy wasn't in yet. She sat on the far left side and waited patiently.

"GO TO HELL PANSY!" said a voice outside the carriage. Hermione jumped and glared at the door, she'd recognize that voice anywhere.

"But Drakie-poo, I wanna ride the heads carriage with you" whined Pansy, she was clinging on Malfoy's arm and wouldn't let go.

Hermione sniggered and thought, 'this is blackmail material' She listened closely

"NO PANSY! WHY THE HELL DO YOU THINK THIS IS CALLED THE HEADS CARRIAGE! THERES A REASON!" yelled Malfoy, people all around them were laughing

"But Drakie I must be an exception!" begged Pansy

"NO YOUR BLOODY NOT, SO LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE!" He turned around and climbed into the carriage. He banged the door shut and pulled out his wand. He fired every locking spell known to the wizarding world on it, except the permanent one.

"You know we'll have a hard time getting out" he heard a giggling voice behind him. You don't need to be a genius to know who that was.

"Shut up, Granger and sit back." He glared at her and sat at the other end of the carriage.

15 minutes past and the carriage hasn't even moved yet.

"What the bloody hell is taking so long!" yelled Hermione, who was not very patient this week for some reason.

"As much as I hate you, I have to agree with you on this one Granger." Frowned Malfoy

She shot him a glare and pulled out her wand, she pointed it at the door preparing to do something with it.

For one in his life Malfoy looked scared, "What are you doing? Pansy could be out there!"

"Do you want to have dinner or what?" snapped Hermione. She took aim and said, "Bombar-."

Malfoy cut her off with a scream, "Why are you blowing apart the door?"

"I'm a witch, Malfoy what the hell do you expect me to do?" yelled Hermione

"Open it!"

"Well, I would but someone seemed to lock the door with every locking spell known to human kind!" She glared at him and blew apart the door with her spell.

"Bombardo!" BANG! The door broke into tiny fragments. Hermione calmly walked out and saw that everyone was in a carriage but it still wouldn't move.

Many people poked there head out to see what the noise was and immediately saw there Head Girl walking around.

"HEY WHY ARN"T WE MOVING!" shrieked a girl somewhere

"YA, ARE YOU THE REASON! BETTER GET IN A CARRIAGE!"

And they all continued yelling until Hermione got pissed.

"SHUT THE HELL UP YOU BLOODY BITCHES"

Everything went silent and she threw death glares at every carriage there was as if daring to say something. Everybody shut up, one because she had a wand and two because she's Hermione Granger with a wand and shes pissed.

Hermione looked around and found that some one was hiding behind the heads carriage. She pointed her wand at it and yelled, "Pretrificus totalus, moblia-corpus" A body came towards her and she smirked when she saw who it was.

"Oh Drakie-poo, it seems I've your stalker" yelled Hermione teasingly at her carriage

Everyone erupted in laughter as Hermione released Pansy from the spell. Pansy blushed furiously; she started walking towards her friends' carriage and climbed in. Hermione went back to her own carriage and fixed the door. The carriages began to move immediately.

"Why did you have to yell that in front of the school, Granger" groaned Malfoy "Once a mudblood, always a mudblood"

"Oh it just seemed to be the right thing to say." Said Hermione sweetly

"You know what you little bookworm, can you for once keep your nosy nose out of other peoples' business" snapped Malfoy, he stood up and walked towards her, in spite of the bumpy rocks.

Hermione stood up also, to prove that shes not intimidated. Suddenly an exceptionally large rock hit the tire and she fell into Malfoy's chest. Instinctively, he wrapped his arms around her waist to keep her from falling (A/N AWWW I love this scene) He fell onto the floor with Hermione on top of him, he looked up and he saw that their lips were less then an inch apart. Brown met grey and they never pulled away. Slowly they both edged closer and when their lips were just one centimetre apart the carriage suddenly stopped and a voice yelled "Hogwarts! Students may get off"

Immediately, they got off each other. Hermione blushed crimson and she rushed out of the carriage. Draco was very confused, was it just him or did he just almost kiss Hermione Granger? Shaking his head he got out of his carriage.

The moment he got out he got tackled by Pansy, who seemed to think that any second without Draco by her side is a second wasted.

"I heard there was a little delay when coming here, but of course we would never start without you, Let the Feast Begin." Dumbledore finished his speech and sat down. Brushing his long beard out of the way, the food appeared magically.

"'ermione wha' happene'" said Ron his face already stuffed with food.

"Oh nothing, just a stalker who refused to part with her, friend thats all." Said Hermione lightly.

After Dinner

"Before I let you leave, I have some things to say. This year's new Head Girl is Miss. Hermione Granger from Gryffindor." The din exploded in applauses, with the exception of the Slytherin table that pretended they didn't hear anything.

"And the Head Boy is, Mr. Draco Malfoy from Slytherin!" Once again the din exploded into applauses but with the exception of the Gryffindor table who were scowling at him.

"Now you may leave and have your beauty sleep. You all have a busy day tomorrow." Said Dumbledore; his eyes twinkling.

Everybody filed out and Hermione said, "Bye guys see you in like 20 minutes"

They left to leaving Malfoy and Hermione alone with the teachers. They both glanced nervously at the teachers who were all surveying them (A/N Scary…)

"Now since we are alone, I would like to congratulate you for taking this role. We will be waiting for the prefects who will come shortly after. In the meantime, please feel free to wander around the Great Hall" said Dumbledore kindly.

Neither dared to move because, every single teacher was watching them, as if daring them to move. They both just stared at the door, hoping that the prefects would return quickly. It was so quiet in the Great Hall that you could hear a pin needle drop.

Suddenly the door banged open, causing the two Heads to flinch. The teachers acted like nothing happened, as if they were expecting it. (They probably were as they do this every year)

"Would you all please follow me." Said McGonagall, she got up from the staff table and walked down the aisle.

They followed her through many flights of staircase at the 4th floor she turned to the right. To the students surprise she put her finger into a tiny hole in the wall and it formed into a door. She turned the handle and beckoned everyone in. They were in a hallway that looked really familiar. They were in the charms corridor which was in the third floor…not fourth. She walked straight towards a portrait of a Mermaid who was sitting on a rock.

"Password?" the mermaid asked

"Since this year's prefect password is decided by our Heads, we should ask Mr. Malfoy and Miss. Granger here." Said McGonagall. Every looked at the Heads and they looked at each other before saying in unison, "House Unity"

The portrait smiled and opened to let the Prefects in.

"Come along now, you may visit the prefects later, I have to show you to your dorms" said McGonagall sharply. The Heads seemed to want to follow their friends inside.

The turned and followed. They went up two more flights of stairs and McGonagall took them in front of a blank wall. The wall was just a bend around the Arthmancy Corridor. She said, "Ostendo Specialis" The wall made a hole in the middle and they stepped in. They were in a corridor that seemed to stretch endless on both ways.

"To the right will lead you directly into Gryffindor Tower without climbing stairs and to the left Slytherin Tower. And in front of us is your portrait hole."

The two looked forward to see a pretty girl in a French ballroom gown. She had gold hair (literally) and bright blue eyes. She had a golden retriever dog standing by her side.

"Bonjour, je'mappelle Tatiana. Comment t'appelle tu?" asked the portrait kindly. (Hello, my name is Tatiana. What is your name?)

Immediately they both answered in French, (Hermione knows only a bit of French and Draco is almost fluent in it, but Hermione still knows the basics.)

"Je'mappelle Hermione."

"Je'mappelle Draco"

Professor looked at her two students amusingly, "You know, she speaks English right?"

They both flushed, and Hermione uttered, "Sorry"

"Password" said the portrait, thick with French accent.

"Hmm I don't know what do you think, Malfoy" asked Hermione

Malfoy just shrugged, he was never that good at thinking up passwords.

"I heard zhat you two vere enemy's" said the portrait. They both looked at her in surprise and Draco nodded slightly

"You can say that"

"Vell den, may I make a suggestion" asked the portrait politely

They nodded.

"Amour dans les bras d'un ennemi"

"Ohh I like that! I don't know what it means but can we have that Malfoy?" It sounded more like a demand then a question.

Malfoy who knew what it meant frowned for a second but nodded his head in consent. He was a bit confused but thought nothing of it as he stepped into his Common Room.

Wow, that was long. Over 3000 words! Don't complain that it's too slow because that's the way I like it, and plus, it's called a BASE. Well I hope that by the next chapter things will heat up a bit now that I got them at Hogwarts. Well please Review. NO FLAMES! Oh and please vote the whole Ron girlfriend thing or else I'll just stick the names in a hat and pick one out.

Well gotta go bye bye, hopefully I'll update tomorrow. Good Night!
