Previously on The Force of Love

Draco just sat on the seat looking out at the moon. He thought about his holiday so far he had lost everything he loved and cared for. Whether that be his mother or any priceless object. He had never hated his life more than now. Maybe if his mother had been living he would have liked to move away and live a life of peace. But no he was now an orphan…and now his life sucked even more he felt tears sting his eyes, he mustn't be emotional especially not now when he was stuck in a carriage in the middle of the night with Hermione Granger!

It was past midnight Hermione woke due to bright light. She looked over at Draco's peaceful sleeping face. It was amazing how someone so arrogant when awake could be so handsome and gentle asleep. Hermione quickly shook the thoughts out of her head. When once again the light that had awoken her appeared. It came from the centre of the carriage. Her face illuminated, as she got closer to the bright blue light. It was a piece of old parchment. She slowly lifted the piece and read it…

Those that live on the opposite ends of life must live together

Those who hate will come to love

Those that make the others life a pain will make the others life a joy

Those who never thought of becoming friends will never be enemies

Your life will change this year for …

The force of love cannot be broken…

Hermione read and reread the parchment altogether a total of 10 times. Was this a joke or was this for real. Why had she been the one to receive this awkward message? Who were 'these' people it was referring to? She decided to keep it a secret and place the parchment in her pocket.

Then she heard a faint click and realised the door had unlocked. So, the reason that she and Draco had been locked together was to receive this message. But why her and Draco? Unless the people the parchment was referring to were Draco and Hermione! She sat there in shock! Like she was going to fall in love with Draco! At the thought of Draco, he stirred awake looking directly at her. She stared back at him with wide eyes.

"What are you staring at Granger?" he said with a smirk " Can't take your eyes of my handsome face?"

"Shut up Malfoy! The doors are open we can go back to school now!"

"What their open, why didn't you tell me!"

"You were sleeping…I didn't want to wake you."

"But...how did you open the door?"

Hermione sat there and thought weather it was a wise to tell Draco about the parchment. WAIT did I just call him DRACO, I am seriously losing it! She decided not to tell him. Plus he would probably think I was fooling him!

"Hello Granger are you there?" He waved his hand in front of Hermione's frozen face

"What?" she looked up at him puzzled

"How – Did – You – Open – the – Door – Granger?" He spoke slowly

"Oh I just tried pushing the handle when I woke up and it opened!" She lied, she wasn't going to tell him about this 'Force of Love'.

"Whatever" he shrugged he didn't care as long as they were out.

"We need to get back to school I feel hungry." Hermione said getting up and picking up her luggage.

"Yeah yeah whatever" He picked up his trunk and followed Hermione out of the carriage.

Hermione having difficulty dragging her trunk, so she levitated it magically to float in front her. Gosh Hogwarts look miles away by foot. She turned to see how Malfoy was coping the long walk but he wasn't there! She was frozen on the spot. Where was he, not that she cared. Then all of a sudden the carriage they had been stuck in was moving up towards her. She turned to see Malfoy sitting where the driver should of sat, smirking at her. Now why didn't I think of that I am after all the smartest witch in Hogwarts, But Malfoy was second to her.

"Want a ride Granger?" He smirked at her again

I hate him so much when he smirks!

"Yeah thanks." She muttered, she was about to get on when he moved the carriage a little bit and she fell. She looked up it him angrily. Man she looks so cute when she is angry.

"Had a nice trip there Granger!" He laughed at her

"That wasn't funny MALFOY!" She quickly got on whilst he was laughing. She so badly wanted to walk to Hogwarts and not use his help, but it was such a long walk and she was tired and hungry.

Draco stopped laughing after a while and started moving the carriage back to Hogwarts. It felt nice to laugh after such a long time of sorrow. Hermi I mean Granger seems to me make me laugh. Plus she is so Beautiful What I am talking about this is Potter's best friend. Potter always has to ruin things.

They finally reached Hogwarts entrance and their luggage disappeared to their allocated dormitories. Hermione was glad that school had started on a Saturday, so she didn't miss out on any classes whilst being stuck in that carriage. She slowly curled her fingers around the parchment she got scared; this was going to be a long year.
