Chapter Two
Hermoine sat on the train and stared out the window at the passing countryside. So absorbed was she in this, that she didn't notice the door open and close, one of the new Head Boys had entered the Heads compartment. Draco Malfoy coughed to let his presence be known. Hermione turned, now back to reality, and saw one of her new partners for the year. Her heart sank. Draco stood there with his trademark smirk on his face, the smirk was also referred to as the alluring smile, the one all the girls melted over. Hermione put on her fake face and asked him to sit down while McGonagall went and got their other Head Boy.
Draco's face fell. The other Head Boy, there should be no other Head Boy! He, Draco Lucius Amadeus Malfoy was the one and only person good enough for the role. How dare Dumbledore and those other bumbling idiots put this insult on him! Draco sat down on the seat next to Hermione in a temper. As he did so the door once again opened revealing Professor McGonagall and an obscured boy in his robes. Stepping in it was revealed to be Harry. Hermione faced was now adorned by a smile and Draco's an almighty frown! The Professor had to chuckle at the contrast. Harry sat down and the Professor next to him. She started to talk over the term and the first day with the 3 Heads.
Prosfessor McGonagall opened the compartment door and left, walking down the train corridor. Harry and Hermione openly showed their pleasure at both being Heads, Draco was disgusted at having to share. Draco couldn't imagine a worse year, and to make it worse, he was living with both of them! His day just got worse and worse. Harry and Hermione hadn't registered the unhappy individual in the compartment with them was someone they had to work with this year. It wasn't until Draco let out a large pain filled moan that Hermione remembered he was there. She paused and thought. Would this year with him be strange, living together? She could imagine the daily attacks she would still get and how she wouldn't get any peace, even in her own room.
The train drew to a halt. The three new Heads got off and directed all the students, new and old to the waiting carriages, which would take them to the Castle. All of them stepped into the Heads carriage, Harry and Hermione on one side, Draco on the other. "This is going to be a long year", Draco thought to himself as he glanced at the two. He was more or less just looking at Hermione, for the first time this year he looked at her properly. Tanned and having more a sexy glow, Hermione now portrayed what he liked in a girl. He was very glad that no one could hear or see what he was thinking; he didn't want anyone to know he tormented the girl because he liked her. Draco sat and stared into the lake. Harry and Hermione were equally in their own little worlds, Harry thinking about Ginny and the new room he now would have in the Heads dorm that he could sneak Ginny into, and Hermione thinking about how she would be able to share a room with Draco and Harry. Harry she had no problem with, but Draco, that was a different story. The male was horrible to her, but she had to give it to him, he had a damn sexy boy! All those hours of quidditch had done him a lot of good. And then there were his natural traits, the cute smirk / smile he had that made her melt, the platinum blonde hair that framed his face and …… she shook her head, how could she think these things! The carriage pulled up to the lakeshore and Draco walked out, followed by a grinning Harry and a solemn Hermione. They all traipsed off to the Great Hall where dinner would be served. They all welcomed the thought of dinner.
The Hall was warm with chattering and laughing students, and the new nervous but excited students, who hovered in the front of the Hall. Hermione looked upon them with nostalgia, of the day she first started. She was sad that this would be her last year. The new students lined up and went one by one to the sorting hat. Ron stood at the head of the Gryffindor table and welcomed all the new students to the house. After the sorting was complete, Dumbledore stood up and welcomed all the students. He began to speak about the Head students for this year. He invited Hermione up to the high table. He explained the Head Boy situation, in very basic terms, and invited both Head Boys up to the high table. After they had been introduced to the school (honestly, thought Hermione, who doesn't know Harry and Draco!) everyone was dismissed and sent of to their dorms. Professor McGonagall took the three Heads to their new room. The portrait door featured a nymph who was very beautiful and had light mauve hair. Her sky blue eyes stared out the portrait at them. An eloquent voice welcomed them and asked for a password. Professor McGonagall told them their new password, graphorn, which happened to be the maiden's pet, not seen in the portrait.
Stepping into their dorm, the three were greeted by a warm open room. Straight in the centre was a lounge with 3 black couches surrounding a coffee table, facing a fire. To the left of the room was a small kitchen and to the right a small table at which to eat and do work. At the end of the open room were three doors; each one had a symbol on the door to indicate whose room it was. Hermione's had a cat, like Crookshanks, that would show whether she was in, sleeping or out of her room. Harry had a white owl and Draco, curiously, had a baby dragon. Hermione stepped into her room. In the middle of it lay a double-canopied bed with a baby blue duvet. The room had a baby blue and apple green theme, Hermione's favourite colours. There were two doors in her room, one led onto a small balcony she shared with Harry and Draco, and the other led to a bathroom she also shared with the two boys. Opening the bathroom door, it revealed a large in ground bath with 5 handles, each one releasing different scented water. A shower stood in one corner. The bathroom was made of white marble and Hermione found it took her breath away. Stepping into her room again she unpacked her things and settled into a good nights sleep. The perfect end to a perfect day.
