Hermione Granger sighed and twirled her quill around her fingers. It was already December and already Hogwarts was in the holiday mood. Even in the most solemn place in the whole castle, the library was decorated with intertwined red and green tinfoil. Dobby had done an excellent job this year decorating the vast castle into a holiday splendor. But Hermione was not in the holiday spirit.

Her parents had called her at the last minute canceling plans to spend her Christmas holiday in London for the next two weeks. br

At the last moment her parents deciced to go to a dentist convention in Switzerland for the holidays, offering her to stay with her Aunt Mildred. Hermione refused and opted to stay at Hogwarts instead. A very moody Hermione shot down Ron, who out of sympathy asked her to spend the holidays with him and Harry at the Burrow. Harry and Ron had left two days ago, and Hermione had the winter blues for the third time that day.

Suddenley, out of nowhere, the heavy oak door slammed, startling Hermione. Hermione looked up to see her least favorite person left at Hogwarts for the holiday, Draco Malfoy.

As soon as they made eye contact, Draco's signature smirk appeared on his face.

" What are you doing here mudblood? I heard St.Mungo's is missing a crazy person on the asylum wing, and I thought it was you."

Hermione glared. "Shut up ferret, aren't you supposed to be with you Mum, sipping on champagne and coming up with a plan to get your father out of Azkaban?"

Draco walked straight up to Hermione and looked coldly in her eyes.

"Don't talk about my family, your lucky you're even alive, you filthy whore."

Hermione smirked. " At least I have a relationship with my parents."

And with that, Hermione gathered her books and left, leaving a gaping Draco with an open mouth.
