Not finishing his sentence Draco stormed off up the stairs. He flopped unceremoniously on his bed, he was confused. Thoughts were running through his head at a billion miles per hour. He tried to sort them out for a minute, but to no avail all that stuck in his head was that he liked the way Her-Granger dressed before. It was very Her-Granger and he liked her better that way. No he didn't like her at all. Yes he did. No he didn't. Yes he- no he didn't. Running his hand through his hair he sighed; he was getting nowhere. Deciding Quidditch would get his mind off of things he got up off his bed. Putting on his practice robes he grabbed his broom and starting walking down to the pitch.

Hermione walked down the stairs wondering why Draco, no Malfoy, had attitude issues all the time, and about the strange look in Dr- Malfoy's eyes. What could it possibly mean? Why in the world was he sad? She was certainly not used to any emotion out of Dr-Malfoy, deciding not to worry about it and to go find Ron and Harry she walked out of her common room. Walking to the Gryffindor common rooms, Hermione got several looks as she passed fellow students. Most of the looks came from the male population of the school, and she didn't like it, not one bit.
"Ginny Weasley!" Hermione yelled when she entered the common room. "Get over here right now."
"Yes?" Ginny said casually walking over.
"I would like my old clothes back, now."
"Sorry I burned them."
"You did what?" Hermione yelled outraged, everyone who wasn't already looking at them turned to watch the argument.
"I burned them; or rather George did so if you want to hex someone he would be the person to hex." Ginny said hurriedly hoping her best friend didn't hex her. Last time Hermione hexed someone there were in the hospital wing for 2 days. Hermione deciding that George would be the right person to hex for giving Ginny the money to buy these ridiculous clothes; stormed out of the common room and back down the hall to her room.
Flinging open the door she ran up the stairs and went rummaging under her bed. She managed to find robes that had been pushed under there at sometime or the other and put them on. It was her nice baggy robes again, they felt wonderful. No more of those tight skinny robes that Ginny had bought her. Walking down the stairs satisfied about how she looked Hermione started off walking in the direction of Hogsmead. She needed to go have a discussion with one Weasley twin.

Fred and George were both peacefully working at their shop when a tapping sound interrupted their very strange once-in-a-lifetime peaceful state. Fred walked over to the window and threw it open; an owl brought them a letter.
Both of them are out of their common room. One is heading for the Quidditch pitch and the other to kill George. (Not that you should worry George I'm sure you'll be fine) Let phase two commence.
~G.W.
One of the twins smirked while the other looked at the letter warily. He wasn't so sure about the he'll be fine part.
"Forge I think it is high time that stage two of our plan happens."
"Greg, I've always wanted to set someone on fire."
The twins smirked and walked out of their shop up to the castle, oh stage two was going to be fun. That is, if the poor person they were going to set on fire didn't burn to a crisp.

Draco was walking down to the Quidditch pitch intent on getting some good practice in to take his mind off of things when he saw two red-heads approaching him. If they started talking to him, he would run. Nothing good ever came when these two showed up.
"Oi George do my eyes deceive me?" One of them, he assumed it was Fred consider he called the other one George, but you never did quite know with these two.
"No Freddy it really is him." The other replied. Cue time to panic.
"Drakiepoo!" The two shouted at the same time running twords Draco. Jumping on his broom and attempt to fly off, Draco was in full blown panic mode. The twins though, had managed to grab the end of his broom and hold it down long enough for one of the twins to push him and make him to fall off.
After falling off the broom Draco was dazed for a second and the next thing he knew, one of the twins was sitting on him and the other had his wand. Of all the things that could possibly go wrong in a day.
"You twats! Let me up." Draco shouted indignantly, punching whichever twin was sitting on him.
"Oi Fred, he's not very nice. All we wanted to do was say hi to our dearest Draco." George says the word Draco in a voice you would use when talking to a baby. It made Draco want to puke; he did however start putting more effort into trying to escape.
"No, I think not George. Perficus Totalus." Draco was now immobilized. "Much better, how do you suggest we carry him to phase two? I'm not carrying the git."
"I think Hermione's method was rather attractive the last time." Fred says with a laugh flicking his wand offhandedly. Draco's mind was racing. Phase two? What in the world did they mean by phase two? Hermione's method; he gulped. Flying couch.
No sooner had he thought it then a couch came zooming out the front doors of the school and to the group of people. Two were laughing one looked like he was about to throw up. With a flick of his wand George levitated Draco up and on the couch and they were running through the school. Draco was beginning to wonder why he was always stuck on the couch and why there were never witness' when he was about to be murdered via such said flying couch.

Hermione was just about to go out the front doors of the school when two figures with red hair ran past her and a couch flew past her head. They ran out the front door. Anger at George forgotten instantly Hermione started running after the two wondering what in the world they could be doing with a person on a couch.
"Fred, George. What in the world are you doing with that person on the couch?" Hermione yelled as she ran. As the head girl she was supposed to stop these things from happening. It was a bit tricky in this case because she couldn't give Fred or George detentions or take points off of them seeing as they no longer went to Hogwarts. She didn't get a reply. Draco however was trying his best to move or shout of do something, but he couldn't. He was completely at the twins' mercy.
Soon enough the odd little group reached the lake, the couch was hovering above it. There was quite a crowd out there following them now because many people had seen a flying couch zooming and had run down to see what was going on. Even some of the teachers had shown up to see what all the commotion was about.
"Fred, I demand you to tell me right now who is on that couch." Hermione said her voice angry. The couch was so high up over the lake that no one could see who was on it. Hermione was trying to figure out who they could be pulling a prank on.
"Well let's just say it's person or rather you could call him a ferret seeing as he did spend some time as one." Fred said as George released the spell on Draco, who seized the opportunity to use his mouth again.
"Get me down from here you gits." Everyone could hear Draco's shouts from the couch above the water. They however couldn't see the panic look on Draco's face or the fact that he was holding on the couch for dear life.
"Jump!" Someone from the back of the crowd (it was probably a Gryffindor) shouted. Everyone laughed.
"I'll pass thanks!" George took this opportunity of distraction to flick his wand in Hermione's direction.
"Oi Hermione." George said. "Just thought I'd mention your robes seem to be on fire."
Hermione looked down and saw that her robes were indeed on fire. She had no clue as to how they ended up on fire. Doing the only thing a person would naturally do in this situation; she ran to the edge of the pier and jumped into the lake.
There was a second of silence. Then Ginny shouted three words that send everyone into a panic. "Hermione can't swim!"
Draco heard the shout and did the only thing one could think to do when the love of their life (even if he doesn't know it yet) was in a lake and couldn't swim. He jumped off the couch to rescue her.
