Disclaimer: No, I don't own Harry Potter and Co. And I am not making any money off this story whatsoever. So JKR's lawyers can BACK OFF!!!!! I am but 14, do you really think I'd have been able to come up with such a brilliant idea as Harry Potter?? I think not.

A/N:I am extremely sorry for the wait!!!!! This last week was benchmark week, and CST/CAT6/SAT9/whatever-the-hell-big-test prep week, so they piled on the homework and stress!!!! Otherwise I would have updated sooner.

Shout Outs: I'd just like to say a HUGE thanks to all of my wonderful reviewers!!!!! You guys seriously make my day!!! 

Draco's POV

I woke up and started to ready myself for the day. But I was distracted. All that was circling in my mind was what I had seen the previous night. It can't be true. Besides, I don't even know what the mirror does. It could show anything; but that doesn't mean it's actually going to come true. I dressed in haste and headed to the Great Hall. I must talk to Granger. If anyone would know about the mirror, it'd be her. Luckily for me, the Gryffindors and Slytherins had Double Potions together first thing. So then I could ask her about it.

Thankfully, breakfast went by fast today, the faster it went by, the sooner I could interrogate Granger. Knowing her, she'll probably be the first in the classroom, having left while Potter and Weasley were still stuffing their faces with food. If I hurried, I could catch her alone, right before she entered the classroom. A figure suddenly ran ahead of me and barely brushed me. The figure had bushy brown hair. Granger

"Hermione!" I yelled. What the hell—why did I use her first name?? She quickly turned around. Whoever she expected, I wasn't that person; for the look on her face was priceless. She was so surprised, that I almost expected her to faint. Her eyes popped out, and her face paled.

"What do you want, Malfoy?" She asked.

"I know where you went last night. And I went to the same area. But I want you to tell me something. What does that mirror show??" As the question went out into the open, the color returned to her face.

"Oh, that? That's the Mirror of Erised. It shows the deepest desire of your heart. Why do you care?? What did you see??" My face paled and I started to shake. No, no, no, that can't be it. She's wrong!!

"None of your business, Mudblood!!" I regretted that as soon as it came out of my mouth. Her eyes immediately narrowed.

"Alright then." She coolly said, "I guess I'll see you in Potions then, Malfoy." With that she stalked off.

Well that didn't work as well as I'd hoped. Heart's desire…..chhh, yeah right. She must be wrong. I don't desire her. She wishes that I desired her.

I decided to skip Potions and go to the Library. Snape won't care. It's not like he'd fail his favorite Slytherin. I turned around and headed for the library. There's gotta be a book in there that tells me the real purpose of the Mirror of Erised, if that's even what it's called.

2 hours and about 10 books later, when I'd missed both Potions and Charms, I finally began to accept the fact that she was right about the mirror. In every single book that contained information about the Mirror of Erised, it said basically the exact same thing. The mirror shows your heart's desire. Yeah, I guess that must be true, but what I'm most concerned about, is how did it get the idea that I desired Granger??? I don't. I know I don't. She is too low and common for me; after all, I'm a Malfoy. Is it possible for the mirror to be wrong?? In all the books I've searched, I hasn't come across any statement about its' accuracy. It could still be wrong. I quickly scanned through the pile, and found the one with the most information; this is the one that I'm going to take out with me. I tucked the book inside my bag, and headed towards my next class, Arithmancy. And, as luck had it, that was a class where the only person I knew was Granger; thankfully Potty and the Weasel wouldn't be there. Now I could get another chance to talk to her again. This time, I'll ask her if the mirror is ever wrong. And hopefully, she'll tell me what I want to hear. But before she'll tell me anything, I'll probably have to apologize. Mulling this thought in my head, I walked the rest of the way to Arithmancy.

By the time the bell rang, everyone was in their seats, except Granger, she hadn't come in yet. Bullocks. But I didn't have long to wait before she burst through the door, her cheeks flushed pink from her rush. "Sorry I'm late Professor Vector. My bag—"

"I don't want to hear it Miss Granger, 20 points from Gryffindor. Her cheeks got redder and she plopped into the only available seat, the one next to me. This was perfect; I could pass her a note. I quickly dug a piece of parchment out of my bag and scribbled something, then slid it to her when Vector wasn't looking.

Hey, Granger.

What do you want Malfoy; I'm trying to take notes.

I need to ask you something.

Why should I answer anything you have to say? I think that I deserve an apology. And because your pride and your ego is the size of France, I don't think that that'll happen. So just bugger off.

No need to get your knickers in a knot. I'm sorry about insulting you in the hallway earlier. It was very rude. There, I said I was sorry. Now can you please answer my question??

You never asked it, but ok. I accept your apology, and I'll answer your question.

Thank you. I was just wondering, is the Mirror of Erised ever wrong?? Or is it always accurate??

Depends. Why do you want to know???

Please, just answer my question!!

Fine, I'll answer your question, but only because you said please and thank you. It's a moment to document in history, for I highly doubt it will happen again. No, the Mirror of Erised is never wrong. What you see in it is what you desire. But people don't always know what they want, causing them to come to the conclusion that the mirror is wrong if the image displayed is an unpleasant one, or something that they disagree with.

Ok. Thanks, I guess.

No problem. Now don't bother me, I have to take notes!!!

As I read and re-read the note we passed, one stream of thought resonated through my brain and repeated itself. No, it can't be true!! There has to be a mistake!!! No, she's wrong!! No!!!! I don't fancy or desire Granger!!!! NO!!!!!!!

TBC…

A/N: Ok, this chapter seemed to me as sort of filler, but at the same time it wasn't. But either way, I liked it. And it is my 2nd longest chapter so far!!!! Please leave comments, preferably not flames. If it's a flame, then bury some constructive comments somewhere!!! If you're lucky, and if I'm not being lazy, then you'll have at least one chapter, maybe more, before I go to Virginia, and then one chapter once I get back. Thanks so much for your reviews, that's what keeps me writing!! And if you're reading but not reviewing (we both know who you are)…please take a minute to write some nice words for me in a review!!!

Much love, (especially if you left a review)
