I do NOT own Harry Potter...just this story..(

Once they got on the train, Hermione, Harry, Ron and Ginny tried to find and empty compartment.

"Hey, Hermione, aren't you Head Girl this year?" Harry remembered her.

"Shoot, I forgot! I'm supposed to meet Professor McGonagall and the Head Boy at the prefect´s compartment…Sorry guys…"she apologized and turned around, heading off to her carriage.

Wonder who Head Boy is…

She stepped in front of a distinguished door, made of pine. Knocked three times and someone opened it.

"Good morning, Miss Granger" Professor McGonagall greeted her, "care to take a seat? So we can discuss…" Hermione's attention was no longer on her teacher, but instead on the blond boy who sat at her right side.

Malfoy? No, he couldn't be…

"Miss Granger?"

"Oh, yes professor…" Hermione took her seat in front of Malfoy who was pleased with her astonishment and flashed her his usual annoying smirk.

Great… This year's going to be JUST GREAT! I'll even get to share a common room with him…

Duringthe following hour, Hermione had to stand McGonagall´s blabbing about their duties, responsibilities and also that their right of taking points and applying detention to other pupils should not be misused, while Malfoy inspected carefully his nails, taking intervals to sneer at her.

After the excruciating speech, their teacher dismissed them and Hermione made her way to her friends´ carriage: the usual last one, at the end of the train.

"So, how did it go?" Ron asked putting Pig's cage aside so that Hermione could get herself a seat at Ginny's side.

"Not too bad… just guess who Head Boy is…"

"Hum…Michael Corner?"

"Nope"

"Ernie Macmillan?"

"Not even close…"

"Well, itcan´t be Crabbe or Goyle, so i´m sure he isn't that bad..." Ron chuckled taping his bird's cage gently so it would stop making a fuss.

While he said that, Hermione stared at him and opened her eyes as much as she could.

"No! You mean…Malfoy?" Ron Harry and Ginny looked incredulously at her and she nodded at the petrified faces.

"Maybe Dumbledore thinks he's a bit more responsible after what he did last year…" Ginny pointed out.

(A.N: I forgot to tell u…In my story Dumbledore doesn't die...he's just a bit weakened; Snape disappears and Malfoy is back to school because – instead of running away with his DADA teacher – he helps the Order fight the Death Eaters.

"He did surprise us all, but still… What if he hasn't changed…what if he's faking…?" Harry replied.

"Like Dumbledore said, let's give him a chance. The Draco Malfoy we knew wouldn´t send his father to Azkaban...mabye he has changed after all..." This seemed to calm down her friends and she relaxed a bit more…

It took a while for them to change the subject to Quiditch and then Ginny took some Teen Witch Magazines from her bag and started doing some quizzes with Hermione, while the other two talked about their future careers.

Later:

"Anything off the trolley, dears?"

Hermione got up from her seat and exchanged some money for two Chocolate Frogs, since shedidn´t buyanything at the candy shop.

"Here you go…" The lady handed her the sweets.

She took the frogs from the woman's hand and looked up to see a familiar angel-face from the opposite carriage.

The little old lady turned to him, "Do you want anything off …" she began to ask.

"No, thanks" He replied with a smooth velvet voice before she could finish asking him, and glanced up to Hermione with a surprised look in his face. She blushed and went inside her carriage trying hard – very, very hard – to breathe normally and calmly.

Ok, Hermione, just inhale and exhale, inhale, exhale…

Ginny looked up from the 'Teen Witch' she was reading and frowned at her.

"Are you ...OK?" she asked, putting her hand on Hermione's forehead to check her temperature.

"S-sure..." she managed to say, before opening up one Chocolate Frog and bitting its legs off.

She took the wizarding card from its package and read it, while chewing.

Sir Herbert Varney

1776 - 1977. Flamboyant American vampire. Author of A Vampire's Monologue - intended to bore the reader into a stupor making him/her easier prey for vampires.

She read it over and over...at least five times more.

I've heard-...hum-...I mean read about this before...vampires also develop certain characteristics toattract their prey...like a godlike face or a divine scent...WAIT JUST A DAMN MINUTE!

As Hermione's eyes widened, Ginny decided to take the card from her hand.

"Hey!" Hermione shouted.

"Mione... you've been staring at this card long enough for me to teach a troll how to play violin, now let me see what's so special about it!"

Ron and Harry moved to the opposite seats so they could read it too, making it impossible for Hermione to move, since her red-headed best friend was practically on her lap. This no longer intimidated her: since she and Ron broke up they've been much more comfortable with each other.

Ginny snorted and the guys laughed at the card, before handing it back to Hermione, who put it her pocket.

"Wonder what he did exactly write to bore readers like that!" Ron asked Harry as they moved to their seats.

Hermione's mind was ONCE MORE wondering about the boy...

Could he? Could he really be a... vampire!

(TUN TUN TUMTUM!)

Later at the Great Hall:

After the Sorting Ceremony, Dumbledore gave the 1st year students the usual information about the Dark Forest and Mr.Filch´s job, and, with a wave of his hands, the four tables in the Hall were filled with food.

For a while, Hermione momentarily forgot about her worries and served herself with a glass of pumpkin juice, spaghetti and meat balls.

It was great seeing everyone again, chatting animatedly and laughing with no preoccupations at all, in spite of what happened last year...For her friend's sake Snape was gone and Lupin had gladly taken his place, while Slughorn was still teaching Potions.

"Wonder who they are..." Ron started, interrupting - as usual - Hermione's happy thoughts and looking at the Slytherin table.

The threefriends turned to see who he was referring to. Again, Hermione was surprised tosee him sitting with Malfoy, who he was talking animatedly with.

"Pinch me" Hermione asked Ginny and, grinning,she gladly obeyed her.

So?...U rate it ...Bad?Horrible?Troll?...lol...
