Chapter 2 – Unexpected Meetings
Hermione saw the tall, handsome profile of Draco Malfoy. Oh yes, she thought he was handsome, but he was so arrogant and rude that she despised him.
"At least he's alone," thought Hermione, "I don't know what I would've done if his good for nothing death eater father were with him!"
Malfoy spotted her and grinned evilly, "Well hello there Mudblood! I'm surprised to see you here. I didn't think they let muggles into Diagon Alley!"
Hermione boiled with rage inside but forced an unpleasant smile on her face, "very funny Malfoy, I'm also surprised to see you here without Crabbe and Goyle. I didn't think you went anywhere without them fighting all your battles for you!"
Malfoy glared at her. "Good one Hermione!" said a very familiar voice from behind her. Hermione turned around and was face to face with her good friends Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.
"Hi Harry, Hi Ron!" Hermione said cheerfully.
"Hey Hermione!" said Harry and Ron.
Ron's face had turned as red as his hair when he said this. She thought that Ron always had a little crush on her, but her own feelings were nothing more than friendly. Malfoy spotted Ron's red face and said, "Hey Weasel, how come your face is as red as your hair? You get sunburned or something?"
Ron's face turned an even brighter red. Harry turned and said, "Well you don't look so hot yourself so get lost Malfoy!"
Malfoy laughed and left. "One day….." muttered Harry.
"So," interrupted Hermione, "how much stuff do you have left to buy?"
"Oh, we haven't even started yet!" said Ron.
"Great! Then we can get everything together!" said Hermione.
They got their school stuff and stopped by Florean Fortescue's to get some ice cream before they leave.
"So, how're the Dursleys Harry?" Hermione asked.
Harry rolled his eyes and said, "The same…"
"I hear Cho and Cedric are finally breaking up," said Ron.
Harry blushed furiously. "No surprise there," Hermione thought with a smile, "I always knew he liked Cho!"
"I hear that Oliver Wood's got some new moves for the Quidditch games this year," said Harry quickly changing the subject.
It was now Hermione's turn to blush because she had always had a crush on the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
"Ummmm….i think it's time to go!" Hermione said quickly standing up.
"Right," said Ron, "well then, I'll see both of you at King's Cross next week!"
Hermione went straight back to the alley and was just about to tap on the wall with her wand when someone tapped her on her shoulder.
Author's note: so….what do u think so far? I know, it's really boring….but be patient…it gets exciting later on (hopefully). I'm open for suggestions; I know I can improve my writing. Tell me if I should continue or just give up the whole thing.
