Chapter 1: The First Dream......



There she was, standing in the Great Hall with hundreds of her fellow classmates around. She was wearing a soft pink skirt that went down to her knees, a fitted white shirt and her hair up in a bun. She glanced around the room looking at all the people. This was not the Great Hall that she had known throughout her seven years at Hogwarts though. The teachers table in the front of the hall was not there anymore, the four house tables weren't there anymore either. They were replaced with about 50 smaller tables and there was loud music playing, but no one dancing. It almost looked as though it was the Yule Ball again. As she looked up where the enchanted ceiling used to be, she found instead a brightly lit chandelier.


Which quickly went dim as someone, or something that thrown open the doors to the hall. She looked around but found that everyone had disappeared. A silhouette of a person was now standing in an open doorway. The silhouette was drifting toward her and now she could make out the figure of a man, about her age. She was growing very curious of who the man was, so she walked closer to him.


The two of them were almost now face to face with each other and she could still not see the man fully to know who he was. All she could see was a pair of steel gray eyes.


The chandelier began to grow bright again. She lifted her face to look at the light. When she lowed her head again to the man standing in front of her, she was to shocked to speak. She stood there in awe for a few seconds and when she finally forced herself to speak, his face moved in close to hers and to her surprise, he kissed her. Then pulled his lips away from hers, stared in her eyes and kissed her once again.


From this kiss, she realized that she loved him even more than she had before. They stood there together for eternity, plainly gazing into one another's others eyes. And finally, there they were, together, Hermione and Draco.


Hermione leaned into Draco to return the kiss, but when their lips barley brushed together, she got a shock which woke her up from one of the best dreams she had had in, as long as she could remember.


Hermione sat up in her large red and gold four poster bed and thought happily, 'What a wonderful dream. But damn! Why can't that actually happen?" she paused. 'Shouldn't I be happy? I mean, it's finally my last year in Hogwarts. My grades are higher than ever before. And best of all I was chosen to be Head Girl! Plenty of guys have asked my out so far this year. And for some reason I keep turning them down! Now I know why. Because I don't want anyone but Draco. We're supposed to be enemies! So why do I feel this way about him then?


'Things were like normal in the beginning of this year. We were fighting like usual. But ever since I found out that he would be Head Boy this year, and that I had to live in the same tower as him, I'm finding out some of his, well, semi-better quality's that he tries to hide. Like he actually wants to do good in school. He stays up late almost every night to make sure that he gets his homework done. And well really that's it. But I'm sure he has more. He just can't show them to anyone because he always has to keep his' she raised her hands and made her fingers into quotation marks. '"tough guy, pureblood, muggle hating" reputation safe. Every time he insults me, I just take the insult with a polite tone. Which pisses the hell out of him! And oh Merlin! He looks so hot when he's angry! So, I do it as much as I possibly can.


'Once he even called me Hermione! I still can't believe that actually happened! Wait, maybe he likes me!' Hermione added hopefully 'Erm…no. It was probably just an accident, probably a very dramatic accident for him! Yeah right, Draco Malfoy, like me? That will never happen, even if he *is* under the Imperious Curse. Well a girl can dream, can't she?'


After a little while of talking to herself, and realizing how stupid she must sound, Hermione decided to go down to the Great Hall for breakfast to start off another week of dreaded classes. She drew in a long breath and let out a big sigh. Climbing out of bed, and pulling on her robes, she threw her hair up in a messy bun and started out the door of her room. She walked down the spiral staircase to the Head's Common Room. When at the foot of the stairs, she saw Draco in a big leather chair next to the fire reading his Potions book. He was still in his pajam-- well technically they weren't his pajamas, they were only green silk boxers. Hermione blushed as she saw Draco's perfectly toned abs. Qudditch had done a hell of a good job on his body.


Before continuing to leave, she took a moment to drink in the sight before her. She decided that she'd better go before he realized she was standing there and she had to come up with an excuse for staring at him. Which of course would have to be cruel to make it realistic. And she couldn't stand being mean to him anymore. Hermione fixed her schoolbag back over her shoulder and tried to hurry past him out the portrait hole. When she was nearly at the portrait, it was too late, Draco had spotted her leaving.


"Where are your manners this morning Mudblood? Why haven't you said 'Good Morning Draco'?"


"Oh shut up you bastard! I have never said 'Good Morning' to your Pureblood ass Malfoy!" She snarled. "And now remind me again why I would greet you when all you do is insult me all the time?"


"You would greet me Granger, because it is the right thing to do. It's polite."


"Oh shut that ugly hole in your face, before I turn you back into a ferret!" snapped Hermione as she stormed out of the common room slamming the portrait behind her.
