Chapter Three
Headboy And Headgirl...
"Urgh... come'one end up already! I'm so hungry!" Ron complained as he looked the great hall to see if he is the only one who is suffering of hunger but apparantly a few pople too are suffering. This time was the sorting ceremony this time they have 9, Slytherin have 7, Ravenclaw have 6 and Hufflepyff has 7.
"Calm down Ron," Hermione hissed him when he kept on banging his head on the table when he thought the Sorting was over, "Who woudn't calm down I'm starving!" he whispered to her in a horse sound that made her know that he was really mad, and starved.
"Well, I would like yo call on your former old student who went away to se america and see's back... and she wants to be sorted back too... Toni Charistia..." Proffesor Mcgonnagle said enthusiastically as clapped when she called on Toni who came out from the door behind the Staff's table.
The room was full of confused noises but the room went dead silent when Toni sat down on the stool ready to be sorted, Proffesor Mcgonagle placed the sorting hat on top of her pure black hair who shouted "Ah," in delight. "Hm... you have been here before... you love comming back here, but you want to be sorted in a different house then... but where? are you sure... alright then! Gryffindor!" The Hat shouted.
The room was full of cheers especially from her former house mates Ravenclaw, and her new house mates Gryffindor. After she smiled at the ravenclaws she sat down beside Lavender and Parvati who introduced her to thier fellow seventh years and some fellow Gryffindors too.
Proffesor Dumbledore stood up, when Proffesor sat down on her chair, to this the starving students especially Ron sighed in relief knowing that they would eat at any moment. "Welcome... welcome to another year in HOgwarts." He said as he waved his hands that made all the candles on the ceiling light up, "A few announcements... I would like to remind all of you especially the first years that the dark forest is strictly out of bounds for all students." HE said as his shinny eyes looked at Hermione, who looked at her friends, Ron, and Harry since they caught Peter Petregrew who was hidding in the forest, and was able to help locate The dark lord who now has lost his rule is now in Azkaban and insane.
When Hermione had memories of going to the dark forest, she shivered when she felt that she had gossebumps, then she realized that she had goosbumps was not because of her memories of her in the forest but someone was staring at her, 'I don't want to look there! it's the GIt's table.' she thought disgustingly now hating Draco Malfoy even more, before she knew it her body turned and was now in eye contact with the git for a little while that made her stomsch leap a little, 'Why am i feeling this way?' she asked herself as she rolled her eyes seeing that the kissed as if the world would end.
"Hogsemade visit this time will happen every saturday starting on the month of October. And lastly... knowing that we announce Our HeadBoy and HeadGirl every year, but i know that all of you are starving..." Proffesor Dumbledore added as he smiled at Ron who went pink of embarasment when Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Lavender saw it and laughed. " So, we can annouce that later. Let the feast begin...!" he said happily then waved his hands and plates with food apeared magically.
The first years were surprized to this that made them confused whether to eat or not, but seeing thier fellow housmates the all digged up enjoying the meal.
While others are exited to eat, Hermione just stared at the plates feeling as if she would float in the air, her heart skipped a beat thinking about the HeadGirl position, she never thought about it last summer, but this time her whole self wanted to be the headgirl badly that she couldn't eat, she couldn't bare the thought of not being the headgirl, all her hardwork wasted. then she felt a hand on her shoulder that made her jump. She looked at the hand and saw Ron's eyes looking at her with care, she was really glad cause he would ussually know when something is wrong.
"I'm fine.." she siad softly as she leaned her head to his shoulders, who patted her head.
"Look..." he said as he lifted her chin making look at him, "If you are worried about this headgirl position, don't worry... you'll always be my head girl Herm..." he said as he kissed her forehead when he saw her smile and he knew he made her feel better, which made him feel better.
"Hey you two love birds! eat... no time for love..." Harry teased that made Ginny giggle and handed him a chiken wing, so he threw the chicken wing that made both of them look at thier food and blush.
"Yeah, you don't want to be those two." Toni spoke up sounding disgusted pointing to Draco and Pansy who are kissing. "At first, they were eating with thier mouths... now they are eating thier mouths." she added as she laughed when ROn smirked.
HErmione stared at Toni who can't barely eat her food when she commented that. "TONI!" She, Lavender, PArvati and GInny hissed now looking at thier food as if they didn't want to eat it anymore.
"She's telling the truth." Ron added as he can't stop laughing, "Correct!" Toni said pointing to Ron.
Hermione stared to Ron who shrugged then flew his hands in the air, "Alright... no more comments-but-ouch!" he shouted when she stepped on his foot, "Alright.. keeping my mouth shut.." he said.
"Me too..." Toni added when she saw her cousin glare at her as if she wanted to kill her.
When the feast ended, Hermione sighed feeling nervous, she felt alright when Ron held her hand, "Calm down..." Ron told her as she felt that she was going to have a heart attack.
"As i promised, i will announce our HeadBOy, please stand up... Draco Malfoy." Proffesor Dumbledore announced that the Slytherins roared as if they are mad, when Draco stood up after Pansy kissed him.
She Smirked to this, 'HIm?' she thought as she rolled her eyes, 'How did he get that possition anyways.' she wondered coldly.
"Hermione?" Ron muttered to her ear that made her comeback to reality her hatered with Draco made her stare at no where for a few minutes that she looked confused when everyone at the great hall is looking at her, "You are the headgirl herm." Ginny said who shook her hand gesturing her to stand up.
She widden her eyes as she stood up, she was still confused, she never heard Dumbledore say that she was. She felt as if she was going to faint and anytime she would loose her balance then GInny and HArry Clapped loudly that made everyone follow. Her worst fear has come when she felt she was going to fall then Ron held her arm and smiled at her helping her to balance.
"Well, this is our headBoy and head Girl." Professor Dumbledore said as he clapped with all the students. "You may sit back down. Prefects lead your houses to your common room... And Headboy and girl please stay for a moment, i would like to have a word." HE added the her gestured all to leave.
"First years Follow me!" Ginny shouted as all the first years follwed her, "See you." she mouthed at Hermione. "Gryfindors follow me!" Drew Penn, the prefect and a sixth year, shouted that all Gryfindors stood up and followed him.
"Bye," Harry said as he patted her hand, and follwed the crowd.
"Take care, if he insults you... i'll kill him." Ron sad as he kissed her forehead when she nodded.
"Ravenclaws keep up!" Luna Lovegood shouted waving at her. Then someone patted her back, "I knew you would be the HEadgirl.." Terry Boot said as he winked, then he walked away after she said thank you.
When the great hall is empty, that the only the HeadMaster, HEadboy and HeadGIrl was left inside. The HEadmaster came up to them since they didn't move and both were still seated to thier on thier house tables.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate the two of you. and secondly, I know this is not part of tradition..." Proffesor Dumbledore said looking from Draco then to Hermione. "But every alternating century the HeadBOy and HeadGIrl stays in one Common room, and this time is the start of it." HE explained
"Stay in different rooms?" Draco asked then glared at HErmione with disgust.
She rolled her eyes to this, 'What an idot, ofcourse in different rooms. i'd rather die than stay in one room with him.' she thought angrily.
Proffesor cleared his throat, when he noticed that they are staring at each other with hate and a glare that says they are ready to kill each other if a command is given, Then they looked back at the headmaster blankly. "No IN different rooms-"
"Wait! We are going to stay in one common room?" Draco asked as if he just analyzed what the Headmaster had said then now he looked at her with deep disgust, when she laughed at the way he looked when he just realized that they were going to stay in one common room.
"Yes, Mr. Malfoy, if you didn't listen to what i had said." He said after her looked at her who cleared her throat and is now gigling silently but stoped when Draco glared at her. "Idiot." she muttered happily.
"But Headmaster, we are not the closest of friends, let alone friends for the fact!" Draco protested and now standing up pointing to her.
"I know that Mr. Malfoy but you have to set you differences behind and you might see a better person." He said as he looked at both them.
She smirked to this, 'Sure, that a ferret is better than him, that's it.' she thought coldly.
Draco was about to argue but the Headmaster yawned that made draco shut his mouth cause he too was sleeping. The headmaster directed them where their common room would be, and what portriat, it is a girl in a hawain costume with a fruit basket as a head dress and the password would be "Pepermint."
When they exited the great hall, Draco was a meter ahead of her and she let him. She was occupied to her thoughts to even bother if he was a head of her. "I have to stay in one common room with this git! we can't even stand eachother!" she muttered angrily.
A few moments later she noticed that he was already standing on the portrait hole and shouted the password even before the portrait asked. "Well get in.." She heared the portrait said sadly. She pitied the girl cause she was so exited to ask the question and she is just insulted by the git.
She waited for the portrait hole to close before she could enter, she ran to the portrait who smiled to her and danced her hawian dance. "Welcome.." the girl said and she kept on dancing.
She just looked at the portrait danced and she knew why the girl felt bad when he shouted the password to her fase, because she was going to dance for them. "I am sorry for that person who didn't see you..." She said sorrily after the girl danced, who shrugged "HE is disturbed isn't he?" the girl asked curiously, but she just shurugged not knowing what is going on with his head.
"Pepermint." she said when the portrait asked, "You know i could open the door for you eventhought you won't say the password..." The girl offered, but she shook her head, "No thanks... it's fine really..." she said thankfully, "Alright, if you change your mind." the girl said then the portrait oppened.
As she entered she was went agaped to see how big the compartment was, it had a fireplace by the sofas, the walls are the colors of each houses but more on Maroon and Green. then two staires that lead to a door that is color green and a Door that is color Maroon.
"Hey Granger, what took you so long, still can't believe that you'll be away from your boyfriend the weasle?" Draco said teasingly after the portrait closed, seeing how she is examining the room. Then smiled his ussual disgusting smug when she glared at him..
She glared at him and clutched her fist ready to hit him any second now, but then she exhaled and said, "You have no right to insult my bestfriend git! I never insult your girlfriend!" she shouted to his face that made him smile satisfyingly as if he is happy about something else, she stared at him and raised her eyebrow, "What are smiling at?" she demanded.
But he just raised his eyebrows and turned his back to her. "None of your busness mudblood." he said.
"Git!" she shouted to his back and walked upstaires going to her room, as she was about to open her door, it was locked, she twisted the knob but it was still, "Open..." she muttered as she shook the door.
"You need a key Granger." he said as he laughed at her red face, then he threw her the key that fit her door.
"Stupid me!" she said as she was able to open her door.
"No thanks mudblood?" he called before she could enter her room.
She rolled her eyes to this as she walked out of her door and looked down at him and smiled sarcastically, "Why thank you Ferret, i owe you one..." she said sarcastically then she turned her back to him and entered her room and banged the door.
When she saw her room she was amazed to see how beautiful it is, she turned to find a better veiw and she swore she almost fell when she saw a portrait of her waiving at her. When she came to it, she saw a small plate by the tip of the portrait, written, "HEAD GIRL598, Hermione Granger." that made her say, "wow..."
She started to change to her night gown when she saw Crookshanks sleeping by a couch in her room. She flew herself to her huge bed that she swore that She, ginny, harry and ron would be able to sleep comfortably if the will have a sleepover.
A few minutes later she couldn't believe that she couldn't sleep, she decided that she would just sit by the fire and doze off... by then... "Yes, that could work.." she said to herself standing up and going out of her room.
"What are you doing up so late Granger?" a voice asked as she went out of her room,
She bit her lip knowing that It was Draco, "MIght a say i could be asking you the same question?" she asked softly gesturing that she doesn't want to argue with him.
"I can't sleep, and if i am not mistaken you can't sleep too?" he asked sweetly that made her question if it's really Draco.
"Yes," she replied as she walked down the staires and sat down on another couch across him. She smiled at him when she saw that he was just staring at the fire, 'Are you alright?' she wondered since the look on his eyes were sad. She too looked at the fire and sighed, "What do you think about the situation?' she asked hugging herself.
"Let's give it a try then, knowing that it's a big common room. there is a possibility that we won't see eachother." he said coldly.
That made her smile, 'the git is back.' she thought. and she sighed, "I don't like you calling me mudblood though..." she whispered that made her think he couldn't hear, but she was wrong he heard her loud and clear.
"That would be easy." he said then he smiled, the smile that she saw in the hogwarts express.
This made her smile too, "Why are you smiling?" she asked.
HE looked at her with his green eyes that made her blush a little, 'Not those eyes!' a voice protested as she stared at those eyes. Then he smiled that made her turn pink, "In time you will know." he said as he looked at her for a moment then back to the fire...
She just looked at him with confusion and she smiled, though she didn't understand what he meant she just realized maybe being in one common room wouldn't hurt- if he is this nice.
