Summery: "Draco, mate, have you seen her? She looks like a bloody Slytherin."
Pairings: HG/DM, HP/GW, RW/OC
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters except the OC, I thought of the plot while watching Princess Diaries 2.
Music: 'Sticks And Stones' By Aly & Aj
Sitting in my room
Feeling sorry for myself
I can't feel worse
Well, what else?
I wonder what I could say
Draco looked up from the Slytherin table to see Hermione walk into the hall. She sent an evil glare in his direction, to which he replied with the trademark Malfoy smirk. She sneered at him and continued on her walk to the Gryffindor table on the other side of the room.
To stop the voices, taunting, and laughing
The way they're acting I wish they'd just disappear
The joke is always on me
It's always on me
"What's that all about?" Blaise asked from next to him.
Why don't they understand
That we are all the same
And we all feel lost at time
"She's just bloody pissed since her cousin has a crush on me and won't stop talking about me," Draco replied smoothly.
Why don't they understand
That someone else's pain
Is not for gain
"Is that what-?"
Sticks and stones won't break my soul
Get out of the way, I'm invincible
Throw them down 'Cause the one you want's not around, not around
It's not your place
Honestly
"This morning? Yeah, I was ready to hit her, but, yeah, I wouldn't hit a girl no matter what."
In the end
You'll be the victim
You're the one who has to live with yourself
Breakfast went smoothly after that, Hermione continually sent glares at him but he easily ignored it. After breakfast, he headed to the fourth floor for Defense Against the Dark Arts, Lupin had come back to teach so now the class was actually fairly exciting.
And when you're reaching for help
There'll be no one
There's no one
He entered the classroom and, to no one's surprise, saw Hermione, Harry, and Ron talking to the professor. They all went to take their seats when everyone started arriving.
Why don't you understand
That we are all the same
And we all feel lost at times
"Welcome to NEWTs level Defense Against the Dark Arts," Lupin started when the class was all ready and in their seats. "Most of you should remember me form your third year, but I hear we have a new student," he smiled at Jessamine, who smiled meekly back.
Why don't you understand
That someone else's pain
Is not for gain
Lupin's lecture went on for the whole class, with him ending with 'I want a one foot essay on how Vampires came to be, due Tuesday' and sent the class on their way.
Sticks and stones won't break my soul
Get out of the way, I'm invincible
Throw them down
Draco watched as the Golden Trio walked out, probably heading for Gryffindor tower since they had a free period. He sighed and headed off for the Slytherin common room so he could write Lupin's essay and not have to worry about it later.

Hermione flopped into one of the chairs in the common room and sighed, she had kept trying to make Malfoy uncomfortable that she'd worn herself out. She felt like taking a nap, but she also wanted to get started on the essay Lupin had assigned them.
I won't live in chains
I've got something to give
I won't play these games
Choosing sleep over homework, Hermione told Ron and Harry she was going to go take a nap and that they should send one of the girls to wake her up when it was time for their next class. She trudged up the stairs and fell onto her bed, sleeping instantly.
Yeah, I'd rather live
You know I've come too far
To be like you are

Hermione awoke to Lavender, or Pavarti, waking her up. She opened her eyes slowly and saw Lavender AND Pavarti standing over her.
Why don't you understand
That we are all the same
"Hermione, Harry and Ron said that you have to get up so you can get to class." Lavender stated.
Sticks and stones won't break my soul
Get out of the way, I'm invincible
Throw them down
"I'm getting up, tell them I'll be down in a minute," she yawned and got out of the bed.
La la la la
La la la la
la la la la, la la la
Throw them down
10 minutes later she was trudging back down the stairs, with her backpack and a cloak. It was September, but it was chilly inside the castle. She found Ron and Harry waiting for her outside the portrait hole, and together they set off for the dungeon, and Potions.
'Cause the one you want's not around, not around
Not around, not around
Not around, anymore

Potions ended with another three-foot essay on how to create a love potion, and then lunch. The trio set off for the Great Hall at a snail's pace, getting there almost last. Right behind then was a sneering Draco Malfoy and his dark haired friend Blaise.
It's not your place
Honestly
Dan-lovr: I had to have him get hit SOMETIME, but it might happen again, I'm not sure yet, and I'm trying to post things sooner, but the end of school is coming up so I'm being dumped with homework…
Noxon1: Draco's mental issues… yeah, I don't think anything can help them, but we'll see!
SiriuslyPadfoot'sGal: What word? I'm lost… but thanks for the review!
Thanks for being patient! I'm trying to update sooner, even if that means shorter chapters. Please be patient on this, 4th quarter just started so now I'm being dumped with homework, but I'll try to update sooner!
