Chapter 3

Hermione woke up and her pillow was sopping wet. Looked at the clock. She better get up, get dressed and go down to breakfast. When she got down to the great hall she looked around. Caught Draco's eye he blushed and turned away. He did it so quickly that Hermione thought that she was imagining it. She didn't want to imagine it. It was wrong. They didn't go together. Good and Evil can't be the best of friends. Can they?

Then she looked across to find Harry and Ron. Now there were some people she could easily get along with. Very easily.

"Hi Ron, Hi Harry is everything all right?"

"Yes fine thanks what about you Mione?"

Isn't Ron such a sweet little angel? So cute. So handsome.

No…must not think thoughts.

Lay off. He is so gorgeous.

But what about Draco. Huh.

Good and Evil cannot love each other. It isn't right.

But if you look deep Draco isn't evil. He is Cool.

Never. Ron is the one for me.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Draco.

Ron.

Ron and Harry noticed something was most definitely wrong with Hermione yesterday but if they knew about her argument inside her head they would think she was really, really wrong.

They had just seen that Hermione looked like she was in pain. Actually, truthfully she was in pain and a lot of it.

"Hermione?"

Hermione shook her head thinking that it would shake the thoughts right out of her head. It worked.

"Hermione?"

"Yes Ron. Sorry I was just being side tracked with something……" She needed excuses but what? Think… quickly.. "School work."

Ron and Harry exchanged looks Hermione…School work…She was back to her normal self…was she?...what was going on?..

"Er Hermione?"

"Yes Harry?"

"We have got some news. Something happened with Ron last night. But first we want answers. What was wrong with you? You were acting really strange."

"Look at the time we will be late for potions."

Hermione got up and ran straight out of the Great hall.

Crap…Potions…Draco…that is all I need. I will deliberately be late. No… queue at the back. Yes… that is it queue at the back.

Don't you want to be next to your beloved Draco.

This is unfair now you are just winding me up.

I really like Draco.

Yes well I don't.

But look Hermione this is the right way to your heart.

What about what your mind says. Hermione. Doesn't that count?

Hermione was fed up with having mini arguments inside her head. It was pathetic. Very pathetic. If she didn't like Ron this wouldn't be such a problem and it was coming up Valentines Day what is going to happen then. The trip to Hogsmead is then as well. Great this wasn't going to help her was it? Couldn't she just focus on schoolwork for a while? Is it really too much to ask from a bright young women.

She got to the dungeons. Professor Snape was standing, waiting for them.

"In. Sit down and turn to page 276."

Hermione's plan had worked she was the last one in and the seat next to Ron and Harry was taken but oh no.

The only seat left was next to the one and only…………… Draco Malfoy.

Crap.

Go get him girl.

She sat down very slowly and quietly…
