Friendships Tested
Hermione's POV
He did it! Dumbledore convinced the Weasley's to let Draco stay but no one told Ron, Harry, Ginny or the twins. God knows I haven't talked to anyone but Draco.
Malfoy is groaning, I don't think he wanted to come. Oh there it is the Burrow!
"Draco isn't it great?"
"What are you talking about Mia?"
"The Weasley's house"
"Where?"
"There the Burrow!"
"Oh...wait that! Oh dear Merlin!"
"Drake, remember you promised to be nice."
"Yeah, yeah I know."
General POV
"She's here!" Ginny yelled so even Hermione could hear, Harry and Ron came out of the house just as the car pulled in. "Bloody nice car." Fred said from the kitchen.
"Wait who is that." Harry asked Ginny, "that's not Hermione, is it?" Ginny asked Ron.
Hermione got out of the car and ran to hug her friends that were waiting for her at the entrance.
"Hey, guys!" Hermione pulled them into a group hug.
"Mione what happened to you?" Ginny slapped Ron making him close his mouth.
"So much to tell, so little time!" was all Hermione answered, Harry was about to comment when some one cut in,
"Mia you shouldn't leave this lying around." Draco said passing her the book of shadows.
"Right sorry."
"Malfoy!" suddenly three wands were pointed at Draco's neck. "I suggest you put those down before you get expelled." Snape drawled behind them.
"Severus, we should be going, I'm sure there in good hands." Cissa smiled at Molly before hugging her son, while Snape to everyone surprise hugged Hermione.
"Floo to your Grandfathers if you have any trouble." He whispered to Hermione as he let her go.
"Hermione dear I couldn't go without a hug!" Hermione smiled "I wouldn't let you."
Draco and Snape rolled their eyes as the two women hugged goodbye.
Finally Snape was gone and the all the red headed kids in the room (plus Harry) yelled, "HOW COULD YOU BRING HIM HERE!" Hermione explained to them about everything in less than ten minutes.
After more and more yelling they seemed to calm down, except one,
"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE THE RUDDY QUEEN OF ENGLAND, GET THAT FERRET OUT OF THIS HOUSE!" Ron screamed at Hermione from across the room. And her determination not to cry wasn't holding up.
Malfoy wasn't gonna stand around and watch. He "tried" to calm him down, but quickly realised it was a losing battle once he got punched in the nose.
Hermione made her way to help Draco up, that's when it happened the thing that could change a friendship forever, Ron spun around without realising what he was doing and flung himself at the first person that moved, which happened to be, Hermione
The witch hit the floor with a thud! Leaving a deep cut on her forehead.
"Mione" Ginny and Harry rushed to her side, Molly and her husband entered at that very moment, Molly crying hysterically Mr. Weasley contacting a healer.
Harry's POV
I can't believe what he did; he knocked her out the bloody twat!
I don't agree with Malfoy being here but there was no way around it, speaking of Malfoy he's still in her room!
He and I've been getting into a lot of fights more than usual it insane I heard Mione yell at him for hitting me again!
Mione won't talk to anyone but him, not even Ginny! What's going on with them? And what's in her damn book!
Dear Diary,
I haven't left my room ever since Ronald hit me. It's been two weeks I didn't even go to get my school stuff Molly wouldn't let me, she said I need rest. So Draco stayed with me we're still working on a spell or something so I can see and talk to my mom.
I was hopping I could talk to Grandma's ghost at school. The train leaves tomorrow thank god.
I still don't know where I'm gonna sit, no way will it be near Ron, Draco said I could sit with him, but what about the rest of his house they hate me!
When did life get so complicated? Oh right, when I became the charmed one.
I saw Harry had a fat lip today and Draco's eye is swollen come to think of it. I yelled at them again! For lying and saying they would stop acting like idiots!
Oh no Ron is at my door again, he's the only one that knocks once and assumes I'm asleep git!
General POV
The five teens said goodbye to the Burrow and the Weasley's, and headed off to find a compartment, before she had a chance to react Ginny pulled Hermione into their compartment.
They changed into their robes and sat down.
"Anyone want a chocolate frog?" Harry offered. After that question an unnatural silence followed.
Where's Draco when you need him? Hermione thought to herself bitterly.
Then as if on cue the compartment door opened everyone looked eagerly, but when they saw it was Malfoy the new trio's faces turned as red as Gin's hair.
"Mia?" Hermione looked up and noticed Draco wasn't alone his gang was with him. "Yes?" she asked quietly
"Coming to our compartment?" Hermione looked up again she noticed all eyes were on her, she smiled and nodded.
Then laughed when she saw Draco wasn't the only one smiling at her, his whole gang was even Pansy.
The ride with the serpents was much more enjoyable for Mione, time just flew by, they were strangely nice to her, and they even stayed quite when she fell asleep.
"Mya, wake up, Mya! God this girl can sleep." Pansy noted as she shook Hermione again.
Draco finally got tired of watching her struggle, "Pansy take note, if you wanna wake up Hermione you do it like this."
Pansy watched in amusement as Draco slid off his seat, put his lips next to Mione's ear then, "HERMIONE!"
Hermione practically jumped four feet "What the heck was that for?" she glared daggers at him.
But it was Pansy, who spoke up while the boys were rolling on the floor laughing,
"We woke you up because the train just stopped come on."
Harry sat in front of Hermione watching her watch the sorting, something was wrong but what was it? Nothing could brake his concentration, except,
"Now that the new students are placed will Hermione Halliwell please come up to be resorted?" Dumbledore said than sat back down.
"Snape must want me in his house." Mya said to herself, without hesitating she made her way around the tables ignoring the strange glances she was getting because of her name.
Hermione sat on the stool as Professor McGonagall placed the hat on her head.
It sprung alive. "Another Halliwell, how interesting" it said causing Mya to jump slightly.
"I see you have changed,"
"I have?" Hermione asked the hat
"Oh yes very much so. I see you're following in your mother's footsteps, very well."
"She shall be placed in. SLYTHERIN." The hat bellowed into the silent hall, and then suddenly the serpent side of the hall exploded with applause.
Hermione took off her red and gold robes and handed them to her old head of house, with an apologetic look to which she received a small nod.
Mione made her way to the Slytherin table, Draco took of his robs and passed them to Hermione, then took her hand and promptly seated her on his lap.
So they both saw Ron's face turn redder than his hair, and stomp out of the hall.
Dumbledore stood up again and explained to the whole school why her named had changed leaving out the part about him being her grandfather.
"And lastly I would like to congratulate your new head boy and head girl Hermione Halliwell and Draco Malfoy.
