Chapter Two: Who is the head boy?

"Are you absolutely sure?" Hermione inquired. " Positive, Miss Granger. The Head Boy will be meeting us at Hogwarts. You will meet him in your common room." Professor McGonagall told her for the third time that day. "Oooh, does that mean the head boy is a Gryffindor?" Hermione asked excitedly. "No, child, the head boy and girl share a common room." Professor McGonagall told her, surprised. "Oh." She said, disappointed. Well, if that's all... I'll just be going back to my compartment. " "No, Miss Granger. That is not all. You and the head boy are expected to have good behavior and be leaders of the school. Do not let us down." Professor McGonagall said sternly. "All right, Professor. I'll just be going now… "Hermione bade her good-bye and walked back to her compartment, looking around at her surroundings. 'Wonder where Malfoy is? Maybe he transferred to Durmstrang!' Hermione thought excitedly. 'Oh well, best we not worry. She thought.

She walked into her compartment, and not thinking about what she was doing, sat down on Ron's lap. "Hey Hermione!" said Ron gleefully. "Can you not find anywhere else to sit, 'Mione? " Harry asked her, amused. "There's still room, you know. You don't have to sit on Ron's lap!" Ginny told her. "Oh!" Hermione jumped up, blushing a deep red. " Sorry, Ron." She muttered. " It's okay, 'Mione!" Ron said cheerfully. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

After 3 games of exploding snap

"Anything off the trolley, dears?" asked the sweet old lady who pushed the cart. "Sure" said Harry. "Want anything, guys?" he inquired politely. "Just a chocolate frog, please." Ron and Ginny said together. "Yeah, I'll have 2 packs of Bertie Botts every flavor beans, 10 chocolate frogs, and a couple of pumpkin pasties." Hermione told him. He raised his eyebrows at her. " What? Can't a growing girl eat?" She said. "Sure Mione. Nothing wrong with having 10 chocolate frogs." Harry said.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

An hour later

"Hey guys! I think we're there!" Ginny said. Neither boy looked up from the chess game. Ron was beating Harry, again. They were both concentrating too hard to hear Ginny. Ginny tried again. "We are at Hogwarts!" she said, a little louder than usual. "Lemme try, Gin." Hermione told her. Hermione tipped over the board and said in her bossy manner, "We have arrived for our final year at Hogwarts. Well, excluding you, Ginny." Hermione told them. Loud protests could be heard at the front of the train.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"There is a time for speech-making, but this is not it. Tuck in!" ( a/n: sorry, I'm not good at speeches!) Dumbledore said, as food appeared instantly on the shiny gold plates.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Off to bed with you! You have your schedules; I presume, so sleep tight and don't be late for your first class tomorrow!" Dumbledore told them. "But sir, tomorrow's Saturday!" Seamus said loudly. "Ahh yes, Mr. Finnigan. You now see what drowsiness can do to you." Dumbledore said, his usual twinkle more pronounced as he said this.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

'Yes! This is the moment I find out who the head boy is!' Hermione thought. She walked into her common room after she said the password –Twinkles- and looked around for her partner. "It's you!" They shouted at the same time.

"Granger… it can't be you!" He said, hatred plainly showing through his features.

"Well Malfoy, it just is. I'm not happy about this either, believe me." Hermione said, grimacing.

"I'm going to see that old muggle-loving fool about this right now." Malfoy said, running from the room.

"This is gonna be a long year." Hermione thought miserably.
