Little secrets

Ch. 2

Hermione yawned and got out of bed. Today was her 17th birthday, which meant she was now legally of age in the wizard world. She could also use magic outside of school. Hermione smiled and she pulled on a faded pair of jean and a t-shirt that said Too-cute, and went down to breakfast.

"Hello Hermione darling how are you well I thought we would go up to Diagon Ally to get your school things, and your father and I have decided to get you an owl since your cat died last year." Mrs. Granger said.

"Thanks mum that would be great, Headwing's here so I send a letter to Ron and Harry to see if they can meet us up their latter." Hermione said getting out a scroll and starting a letter to Harry:

Harry,

Hey what's up, thanks for the copy of Magical beast and how to take care of them, though I don't know when I'll need it but it sure is interesting. Any way my mum and dad are taking me to go get my school stuff and I thought maybe you and Ron would like to meet us up there latter today.

Love,

Hermione

Then a similar one to Ron:

Ron,

Hey what's up Thanks for the chocolate frogs I'll enjoy those all we have at my house is sugar free snacks (my parents being dentist and all). Anyway my parents are taking me to get my school things today and I thought maybe you and Harry would like to meet us up here latter.

Love,

Hermione

"Well Hermione which owl world you like, pick fast were supposed to meet the Weasley's and Harry in 10 minutes at the Leaky Cauldron?" Mrs. Granger asked her daughter.

"Um, well I like the brown and white one, yes that one, I'll name her Winnie," said Hermione as she took her new pet.

Ten minutes latter Hermione entered the Leaky Cauldron to find all of the Weasley's and Harry waiting for her. "Hi Hermione Happy Birthday, wow is that a new owl, It's great to see you how have you been, you look great?" Ron told her as he hugged her.

"Oh Ron it's good to see you, thanks I've been doing well" Hermione said as she hugged Ron and the rest of the Weasley's and Harry.

They had just sat down to eat when Malfoy and his family walked in the Leaky Cauldron. "Oh great here comes trouble, I hope he minds his own business." Ron mumbled glaring at Draco.

Hermione starred at Draco coolly as he looked their way and to her surprise he blushed and muttered something to his dad, and walked toward her. "Hello Hermione, I herd it was your birthday so I came over to wish you a happy birthday, uh so Happy Birthday see you at school. Oh yeah your owl accidentally came to my house so here is your Hogwarts letter I think you made Head Girl well if you did than I should tell you that I'm Head Boy so we will be living in the Head Dormitory together. Well see you." Draco said quickly, handing the envelope to Hermione and blushing again as he walked off.

"What the Bloody Hell was that about?" Ron said glaring at Draco.

"I don't know, but I intend to find out," Hermione said what was going on why Draco acted very civil to her like they were old friends and he had suddenly developed a crush on her. Draco Malfoy the I'm a pureblood so I'm better than you git have a crush on her a worthless muddblood was laughable and also to express it in front of his father. What was going on? Hermione was silent though the rest of the meal trying to guess what Malfoy was up to.

Latter that evening when Hermione got home she found a barn owl with a package on her bed. Hermione curiously picked up the letter and gasped when she read what it said:

Hermione,

Happy Birthday! Well I just thought I send you a present well um I hope you like it; you got Head Girl didn't you? Well I can't wait to see you at school.

Malfoy

Hermione starred at the letter in disbelief what in hell was going on, she looked down at the package and unwrapped slowly as if she expected it to jump out and attack her. Hermione gasped as she found a golden necklace with a lion on it with ruby eyes it was beautiful. Hermione put it on, nothing happened so she reread the letter. Perhaps Malfoy had actually grown up and decided to be civil and friendly Hermione thought doubtfully, she just had to find out what Malfoy was up to. Hermione fell asleep wondering what evil schemes Malfoy was playing at.
