Chapter 8

Before everyone knew it, school had started.

Harry spent most of the holidays planning ways to get Hermione, as was Ron, Ginny kept to herself a lot, thinking of ways to get Harry's attention, and Hermione hung out with her muggle friends a lot.

None of them knew of her 'other life', so they never bothered her.

As she was packing her things she looked herself over one more time.

She was wearing a tight t-shirt that said "wait in queue like the rest of them", that came just above her belly button to display her new belly button ring, a mini skirt with tan ugh boots. Her hair had been straightened and she also got a new tongue ring.

"This will give everyone a surprise for sure. The silly little bookworm is actually a woman."

She grabbed her trunks and headed to the car.

Thank God, this is my last year. No more teachers to tell me what to do, no more people to follow me around and best of all no more golden trio. Pothead, Weasel and Granger. Could God have made more pitiful creatures? Obviously not!

"Draky are you going to come with me or not honeykins?"

Pansy purred to Draco. She was going for the seductive voice, it sounded more like a transvestite choking.

But before Draco took another step something caught his eye.

Is that a new girl? It must be I haven't seen her before. Look at her legs, they go on forever, her beautiful long straight hair and she has a nice frame. I think I should go and work my magic. Hold on, who is she hugging? POTHEAD & WEASEL! Why would she be associating with such scum? I wonder where that slut Granger is, she would surely be jealous that her bitches are talking to someone as hot as her.

As soon as Hermione entered the train station, all eyes were on her. She was blushing so much from all the attention she looked like a beetroot.

Where are they I'm sure I told them to meet me here.

She searched through the sea of teens for her two best friends, but they spotted her first.

"Ron, where is she I'm sure she said she would be here by now?"

Ron and Harry were also looking for her, that is until they noticed the leggy brunette.

"Woah Harry look at her. She's brilliant!"

They both turned there focus on this stranger.

"Can you get a look at her face? She seems so familiar."

They both tried to get a look before it struck the both of them. "HERMIONE!" They both said in unison.

At first they started strolling toward her, but then it turned into a race that lead to the both of them literally tackling her down.

"Herms, oh my life, you're sex on legs now aren't ya?"

This made her blush for probably the 20th time that morning.

"Ron, stop being silly, I'm still the same bookworm I was six years ago."

Now it was Harry's turn.

"Now Hermione you were never a bookworm to me and you never will be. You'll always be beautiful."

Before she could blush for the 21st time the whistle blew to signal it was time for there departure.

Hermione took both there hands and dragged them on to the train.

They were trying to find a carriage, well at least she was, Harry and Ron were too busy checking her out.

"Come one you two hurry up!" Before she could take another step, somebody blocked her way. The last person she needed at the moment.

"Hey there. I'm Draco Malfoy, Head boy, and you are?"

He took her hand and kissed it, which sent chills up her spine, that is until she remembered her two best friends were watching there enemy kiss her hand.

Well in my premonition he did say he was an idiot. Maybe he isn't as bad as I thought he was. Wait a minute did he just ask who I was. Well no wonder why he's being so nice, he doesn't even know who I am. I should've known.

"Malfoy back off before I-"

"Before you what Weasel?"

And there you go, the real Malfoy is back.

Hermione now grew angry that someone was making her best friend feel so insignificant.

"Malfoy! What the hell do you think you're doing you idiotic, retarded, demented, shit for brains, self obsessed, pathetic, big-headed, psychopathic, five dollars an hour man whore? Did you really think you could pick me up with some cheesy pick up line and slobbering on my hand? Fat chance."

Draco stood there absolutely bewildered that some stranger had judged him at there first meeting.

Harry and Ron couldn't hold it back, they laughed so loud they were sure it echoed through out the whole train.

Hermione took another step towards him, so close she could feel hear his heart beat, after all he towered her at an amazing 6 foot 4.

She leaned into his ear and whispered loud enough for him to hear.

"And to think, you always said blood didn't matter, but obviously you just want some ass. I bet you don't even know who I am do you?"

She stood back for him to take in what she just said.

He examined her properly this time. What is she talking about? I never forget a face, or those legs or that chest. There's something about her eyes though, I remember her from somewhere. And what did she mean when she said blood didn't matter. Hold on, no it can't be. Could it?

His thoughts were interrupted by his stalker.

"Drakykins why are you talking with the likes of this mudblood Granger?"

The blood from Draco's face was totally drained.

Hermione saw this and chuckled at what she had just accomplished. Something she had wanted to do ever since there first acquaintance.

She made him feel like shit, and too make it even better, everyone saw.

She slowly turned on her heel before continuing to find her Harry and Ron a carriage.

They were walking now for what seemed like forever in complete silence.

"Hey guys, come in this carriage, I saved it for us."

It was Ginny; she also decided to have a make over.

Hermione broke out in what was the first genuine smile. But as she got closer she could sense something wrong with her best girlfriend.

Instead of a hug from Ginny, all Hermione got was an evil look.

"Hey Gin, I see you've changed a bit. It suits you." Hermione tried to say all this with a smile on her face, but to tell the truth, she thought that Ginny looked terrible.

Her makeup was over the top, she also got her bellybutton done but she was wearing hardly anything.

"Yes Herms I decided to do something different but of course you decided you want to look even better huh. First you take away the one guy that I have fallen for and now you want to take the spotlight from me. Thanks a lot 'friend'."

Ron and Harry had just made it to the two girls who were now exchanging glares.

But all that Ron cared about was how little his little sister was wearing.

"Blimen hell Gin, could you at least put on more than just a tea towel, and why do you look like a clown?"

He pulled off his robe and wrapped it around her.

"Oh, what did you do that for Weasel, I was just enjoying myself?"

It was one of Draco's sidekicks, Blaise Zabini, he just realised how much she had grown up.

Ginny blushed all shades of red, remembering when he was one of the three most eligible for her.

"Come on everyone, how about we just go into our carriage huh?"

Harry killed the awkward silence and they all made there way into there carriage, which led to another awkward silence.

"So Gin, how have your holidays been?" Hermione asked.

"Okay I guess. What about you Harry, any good?" Ginny asked

"Pretty good, Ron and I just hung around, right Ron?"

"Yeah we just done guys stuff. What about you Herms, anything amazing happen to you?"

Yup, Draco said he loved me.

"Herms. Hello, so how were your holidays.

Hermione snapped out of her thoughts and was brought back to the three people whom she used to love and trust wait in anticipation for her answer.

"Nothing much, just read and... stuff."

She looked down at her watch and realised she had to meet with Professor McGonagall for a meeting.

She got up to leave and both boys stood up also, leaving a pissed off Ginny to sit down.

"Where are you going Herms?"

"Oh sorry, Professor McGonagall wants to meet me and the head boy at the front carriage. Sorry but I have to love you and leave you."

The boys sat down, but then Ginny realised. "So who is the head boy?"

"Umm... it's Draco Malfoy. See ya."

And she left her friends behind to scorn at there worst enemy.
