A/n: srry i haven't updated this story. But i thought of ideas for it now. So...read...review...u know, the whole routine.

I looked through my suitcase and checked if I had everything I needed. I even managed to make room for the potions I made for Draco. He was jittery and nervous. "Are you sure this will work Granger?" he had asked for the millionth time. "Yes" I had replied, bored of saying the same thing over and over again. "Is your trunk packed?" I asked him, closing my own trunk. "Uh...yes" he said, retreating to the room he was staying in.

I took this chance to change. I closed the door and locked it. When I unlocked it, Draco was leaning on the railing of the staircase. He looked at me and looked like he had never seen me before. He has given me this look before. And it still creeps me out. I was just wearing a baby blue blouse my mother had bought me, a ruffled denim mini skirt and a pair of black boots. Nothing to stare at really. 'There must be another reason' I thought. "Is there something on my face or something?" I ask.

Draco shakes his head and looks in a different direction. "Hermione, Draco. Come on. We don't wanna be late" I hear my mother call. I nod to myself and looked at Draco. He was still staring at me. "Stop it" I said lightly as I passed him. Draco took hold of his trunk and followed me down the stairs. Not counting today, Draco has been living with me for at least a month and a half. A long month and a half. Draco and I placed our suitcases in the trunk of my mother's car and sat in the backseat.

My mother sat in the driver's seat and when she started to drive, I noticed Draco started to tense up. I'm sure this was his first traveling by car experience. I giggled a little and he glared at me. By the time we got to the King's Cross Station, Draco tried to get out the car as fast as he could. My mother and I laughed long and hard. I gave my mum a hug and a kiss and waved goodbye. Draco and I got our things and left to enter the station.

"You're such a chicken" I joked as I walked down the station. Draco sucked his teeth and said, "Hey, that was the first time I have ever traveled in that muggle contraption." "That 'muggle contraption' is called a car" I corrected him. "Whatever." Right outside the wall leading to platform 9 3/4, I dug my hand into my trunk and pulled out a cup of the potion.

I gave it to him. "Do I have to?" Draco whined. I gave him a look that was identical to McGonagalls. Draco looked down at the cup and winced. He drank the potion and squeezed his eyes shut. Nothing happened for a minute, but I soon saw the potion taking action. His hair slowly went from straight and blond to brown and curly. He whimpered a little because he knew his hair was the first to change.

His pale skin darkened a little bit, so it seemed to match my skin tone. He opened his eyes and the steely grey had gone chocolate brown. "Oh my fucking god! Change me back!" he cried. I covered his mouth with my hand. "Are you crazy" I asked him violently. I took my hand off his mouth, closed my trunk and went into the platform. Draco followed as he sulked. I took his arm and made him follow me through the crowd. We dropped our things in the baggage car and went to find a compartment.

"Malfoy, we need to make this convincing" I lectured. "Now, with you in this condition, you're gonna be playing my relative or something." Draco winced and looked away. "I don't want to" he whined. "Listen you." I brought my finger to his face. "You came to me Malfoy. Remember that. I can blow you off just as easy." He gulped slightly. I sat back down and looked out the window.

Then, the compartment door opened and Harry and Ron came in. "Hey 'Mione" Harry said. I ignored him. "Who is this?" Ron asked, looking at Draco skeptically. I opened my mouth but before I can say anything, Draco said "I'm her brother." My eyes widened. 'Has he lost his mind?' "I thought you were an only child Hermione" Harry said.

"Ha! She wishes" Draco said, throwing a piece of parchment at my head.

I glared at him and threw the parchment back at him. "Why weren't you in Hogwarts while we were?" Ron asked, still suspicious of the sudden appearance of my 'brother'. Draco shrugged. "I attended a different school and Hermione here finally convinced me, mum and dad to send me here" Draco lied, punching me playfully in the arm.

"So what's your name?" Harry questioned. Draco looked at me nervously. "My name is David." Draco finally answered after a short pause. 'David? Hm...whatever' I thought. Ron and Harry gave each other a look, obviously not convinced. They didn't question Draco any longer. They stayed silent in their seats. They didn't even talk about Quidditch like they always do.

With Draco in the room, there was some total tension. The compartment door opened and Blaise Zabini was there along with Crabbe, Goyle and Pansy Parkinson behind him. "Look" Blaise started, looking around the compartment, "I would never come to you guys but have you seen Draco? We didn't see him board the train and we haven't seen him in any of the compartments. Do you know where he is?"

From the corner of my eye, I could see Draco was struggling to stay in his seat. Trying to control himself from standing up and saying "I'm right here Blaise. Me. Draco Malfoy!" Thankfully, he did manage to stay in control and keep quite. "Why would we know where Malfoy is? Who do you think we are? His secretaries?" Ron snapped. The group of Slytherins glared at Ron and left.

Draco leaned in close to me. For a second I backed away but then realized he was quote unquote my brother. So I leaned to him and listened to what he had to say. "You are so lucky I'm supposed to be your brother. 'Cause if not, I would've socked Weaslebee right then and there." I suppressed a giggle with quite difficulty. Ron looked at us immediately. So fast, I was surprised he didn't get whiplash.

"What did say? David?" His eyes were narrow and full of suspicion. "I didn't say anything important Ron. I just said that being in Hogwarts is gonna take time to get used to." Draco covered himself...would nicely be the word? "Err...Dr-I mean David, can I have a word with you? Alone?" I said, looking at Draco with urgency in my eyes.

I guess Draco wasn't as stupid as he looked because he got the message and nodded. We stood up and he opened the compartment door. "We'll be right back" I said to Harry and Ron. They said nothing but a stiff "Uh-Huh". Once I closed the door, Draco and I spoke in whispers until we found an empty compartment.

"OK, so far so good" I said, pacing shortly. "You call that" Draco said, pointing outside the compartment, gesturing toward the other compartment, "So far so good? We practically broke down. You almost said my real name! It's obvious that they don't believe us." Draco went on and on about how we weren't going to pull our plan off, how everything will fall apart and how Harry and Ron will find out the truth and tell everyone.

Just to shut him up, I grabbed him by his shoulders and shook him lightly. When he wouldn't listen, I shook him harder. Now he was quiet. "Listen" I breathed. "Let's think about this. We'll make sure no one will find out and that our plan will work." Draco scoffed and rolled his eyes. "C'mon Granger" Draco said, disbelievingly. "This won't work." Before he could say more, I interrupted. "You don't know that unless you try it. We just started. Give the plan a chance and you never know. It just might work."

Draco still didn't believe me. I look outside the window of the compartment. I see the station a little. "We should change into our robes" I say. Draco nodds. "Whatever" he says. We leave the compartment and go to the bathrooms to change.

Now In Hogwarts...

Now, Draco is PISSED. Because no one knew him and thought he was a Granger from another school, he had to be sorted. And to his disappointment, he was sorted into Gryffindor. He demanded a resort but alas, he was given no such thing. He sat next to me and across from Harry and Ron. "Why would you wanna resort? What other house would you wanna be in other than the house your sister is in?" Harry asked. Draco looked at me again. "Well...Hermione told me about all the houses and even though I wanted to be in the same house she was in, I still was interested in...Ravenclaw." Draco lied once more.

'Wow. How does he think of these quick cover-ups' I think. I feel Draco take my hand. I'm about to snatch it away but I hear Draco speak. "I may not have gotten into the house I wanted, I'm happy enough to be in the same house as my beloved sister." I look at Draco as is he had six heads. "What the fuck?" I think out loud. My free hand automatically covers my mouth. Draco's hand's embrace around mine tightens painfully. Harry and Ron look at me confused.

"I only said that because I haven't heard D-David speak about me like that in so long. It just came as a surprise" I say, giving a fake giggle. Draco pulls me close to him and whispers, "You said not that long ago that the plan might work, but if you keep reacting to my acting like that, man oh man is this arrangment over." I nod slightly and move away from him. Whendinner is over, we go to the Gryffindor Tower. Draco and I stay close together as we discuss what will happen in the morning.

"OK, I'm going to give you a bottle of the potion. When you wake up, you'll look the way you started. Blond, pale and grey eyed. But as soon as you wake up, you take the potion ASAP." Draco nodds at my instructions. In the common room, I have him wait as I go up to the girls' domitory to fetch the potion. When I return, I find Draco lying on his back on the scarlet and gold couch.

"Hey! Don't fall asleep" I say, poking his leg. But this action only makes him roll over on his side. I put the potion on the table carefully and put my attention back on Draco. I poke him again and he swats my finger away. I smack his arm and he looks up at me with sleepy eyes. "What?" he said groggily. "Here. I want you to take the potion, put it on your bedside table and get some sleep OK?" I instruct. Draco glances at the potion and looks at me again. "You don't tell me what to do."

I grip his ear hard and it makes him sit up. "Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow" he says, clearly in pain. "I am going out of my own way to try and help you Malfoy. Help YOU! Now if you want me to keep helping, I suggest you do as I say. This is all for your own good Malfoy. Remember that." I let go of his ear and stand up. "Now get the potion and get some sleep. Not only to Gryffindors wake up early, we have to be on our toes. Make sure that nothing, I repeat, nothing goes wrong."

Draco, who is still rubbing his ear, nodds and stands up slowly. "Good night...David" I said before going up to the dormitory.

"Ruddy bitch" Draco says under his breath. He grabbs the bottle of potion and goes up to the boys' domitory. The boys are still awake. They gathered around Harry and Ron's beds. Draco guessed it was something they did the first night back to Hogwarts or something. "Hey David" Ron called. Draco realized he was talking to him so he looked up at Ron. "You wanna join us?" Seamus asked. Draco shook his head. "Need to get an early start tomorrow. Ya know?"

Seamus nodds his head in understanding. Ron keeps his eyes on Draco for a few more seconds. Draco set the potion bottle on his bedside table like I had said and changed into his pajamas. He lied down in his bed and stared at the ceiling. And at one point he had fallen asleep.

As Draco slept, and the rest of the boys had fallen asleep, Harry and Ron stayed up. "Do you really think David is Hermione's brother" Ron asked Harry. Harry shrugged. "I'm not so sure. You?" Ron shook his head. "Not one bit. Hermione would've told us would she have not?" "You make a good point" Harry agreed, "But why would Hermione lie to us?" Ron gave a shrug, "I don't know. Do you think that missing Malfoy this year and David connect in some way?"

Harry lied on his back. "Maybe. But we just got here. Let's figure this out as we gradually set through the year, ya know?" Ron nodded. "OK. We'll figure this out some how." "Yea" Harry yawned, "Some how." Then he fell asleep. As did Ron.
