When Hermione arrived at the train station she heard a familiar voice call her name. It was Ron. She could easily distinguish him in the crowd with his bright red hair and him being 6,2 she could easily see him walking towards her over the heads of the crowd.
" Hey Hermione," Ron said
" Hello Ron. How was your summer?" Hermione asked. Ron's looked at her sadly.
" Not very good, mum and dad was sure that once Percy found out Voldemort did come back he would come home, but he hasn't. Dad reckons he's too proud to admit he was wrong. So mum's been crying all summer. Dad doesn't say much, but you can still tell he's upset."
" Oh Ron that's awful," she said shocked. She had been sure Percy would have come back home too.
" Mum and dad have also been really worried about Harry, with Siruis being murdered and you know who getting stronger," said Ron
" Yeah I've really worried about Harry too, he's hardly written to me all summer," Hermione said
" He hasn't written much to me either. If I have had a bad summer, I know it's nothing compared to his," Said Ron. As Ron said all this Hermione couldn't help but notice how muscler Ron had gotten. She had to admit he was pretty hot. But that was insane she couldn't think things like that about one of her best friends. Even though she had a crush on Ron since second year she knew that's all it could ever be. It would just be too weird if anything were to ever happen between Ron and her.
" Hey, look there's Harry," said Ron. Hermione took her eyes off of Ron and sure enough Harry was walking through the crowd, looking down at the ground.
" Hey Harry," said Ron
" Hey Harry," said Hermione
" Hey guys," said Harry. Hermione noticed that he was very pale and though he smiled when he greeted them Hermione could tell that his smile didn't meet his eyes, which looked sad.
" Ready for another year mate? Said Ron. " I wonder if our classes will be any harder this year."
" Of coarse they will Ron, with every year they get harder," said Hermione in a matter of fact way.
" Well at least we wont have to put up with Trelawney this year, but it's to bad one of the requirements for being an Auror is Potions. To think we have to put up with git for another year." Said Ron
" Yeah well I'm not putting up with any of his this year," said Harry. At that moment Hermione decided that it was time for them to board the train. Harry was really in a bad mood and she thought that was enough small talk.
As they boarded the train they started looking for an empty compartment. Hermione stuck her head in one and came face to face with Draco Malfoy.
" You weren't thinking about coming in her were you? I don't need a mudblood dirtying up the compartment." Draco said with a smirk
" I wouldn't dream of coming in that compartment with scum like you," Hermione said angrily. Draco gave her a glare so cold it sent shivers up her spin.
" And you watch your mouth ferret. I don't want to hear you call Hermione a mudblood this year," said Ron very red faced. Draco smirked at Ron.
" And what are you gonna do if I do weasel," said Draco
" I'll…" Ron started, but got cut off by Harry.
" You know what Malfoy, sod off. We don't have time to deal with a death eaters son."
Malfoy glared at Harry.
" If I was you Potter I would be very careful this year, I haven't forgot what you did to my father," said Draco. Harry glared back and said,
" Well your not me and will never be close. You will always be scum to me and to everyone else." With that he turned and walked out. Ron and Hermione followed
Draco's point of view
Draco shock with rage as the golden trio walked out. How dare Potter talk to him like that. He'll pay along with that mudblood Granger and that pathetic excuse for a pureblood Weasley. Just then his thoughts were interrupted by his two friends Crabbe and Goyle.
" Hey Draco," Crabbe said
"Hey Draco," Goyle said
" Hello," replied Draco lazily.
" Has the food trolley came by yet?" asked Goyle. Draco rolled his eyes. This was going to be a long ride.
