The time between being at Diagon Alley with Draco and September first passed like a blur for Hermione Granger. She spent her time reading, and going through all her new magical equipment. The reason she had such an excellent time? Her father was away on a business trip. And her mother was often entertaining guests. Isolation was Hermione's second favourite company. Draco was first.
If she had been brought up any differently, Hermione may have found it weird her best friend was a boy. But she didn't. Draco was three weeks old when they first met. Hermione was three minutes old. So even though the ages difference wasn't great, Draco was like Hermione's big brother. He took great care of her and wasn't scared about going to Hogwarts like many other first years may be. She knew he'd stick with her.
So when Draco came to Hermione's house to excort her by floo, he took her to the side, giving her a warning.
"Listen, Herm, my cousin Zac has told me about Hogwarts from when he was there. No matter what, Slytherin's have a cold disposition. We both know you and I are going to be in Slytherin, so we have to be aloof, at least around non-Slytherin's. Slytherin is discriminated against, and as seen as being evil. If we don't act bitter, they'll walk all over the one Slytherin who isn't 'evil'. For your own protection, please stick with me and Blaise and Pansy, and don't let anyone take advantage of you. You're my girl okay – my long lost sister, so I don't want anything happening to you."
Twenty minutes later, saw the only children of the Malfoy and Granger families at Platform Nine and Three Quarters. Stumbling out of the fireplaces with their trunks and animal cages flying everywhere were hundreds of students, new and old to Hogwarts. Except the purbloods children. Their parents made them practise using floo so that they would perfect this form of transport. Draco and Hermione landed gracefully and walked briskly to find their friends as they came out of the floo-powdered journey. Not waiting for their house-elf slaves who went straight to the train to dispose of their luggage. (AN about this, you would think that not ALL witches and wizards live close enough to go to King's Cross for their ride. Do you think that all train stations have access to this secret platform, or they can floo? Please tell me!!) Soon they spotted friends of theirs, Blaise and Pansy dragged Hermione and Draco over to where Crabbe, Goyle and Malcolm Baddock were standing, and they all found a compartment together.

I know it's short and I haven't updated in AGES, but I don't know what to put into this chapter, Draco & the gang won't meet Harry on the train, but rather in Hogwarts such as in the first Harry Potter movie ... sorry – I'll update soon! Tell me what you think please!
