Thankyou for the awesome reviews. Everyone reckons that I should continue with this story so I am.
Disclaimer: Sigh, I admit, I do not own Harry Potter. You've caught me. I'm sorry for deceiving you and becoming as rich as JKR. Pfft, I wish.
Dedicated to: my beautiful sister Cam. I love you so much babe.

She walked into her new common room looking around. There were two couches and love seats around a glass coffee table and in front of the fire. They were a mixture of browns and black with the walls an off white. There was also a staircase which leads to the two private rooms, both including a door connecting to their joint bathroom.
So this is the famous Head Dorms, she thought as she started up the stairs. I wonder if Malfoy will like it or snub it saying that his room is nicer. At least he hasn't made any snide comments to me so far. He seems very different this year but then everyone seems different this year. I only notice it because it is happen to people I know really well. Malfoy seems, for lack of a better word, nice and Harry and Ron seem…distant.
She accepted this though. It was better this way; she wouldn't have to pretend to care about anything except school work. It would be too hard otherwise, to have people pretending to care about her and her having to do the same in return. She did originally care for them, and even love them, but after a couple of years she could be bothered trying to convince herself that they actually loved her back.
Walking into her room, she noticed the colour scheme was maroon and gold. Despite the fact that she was a Gryffindor, Hermione didn't like the mixture of these two colours, so waving her wand around the room, she changed it to black and royal blue, like her bedroom back at home. She then walked to the adjacent door leading to the bathroom. There, she joined Malfoy in cleaning her teeth and with a nod wished him good night.
When Hermione was sure that he was gone and wouldn't return, she locked both doors and went over to the toilet. Sticking her toothbrush right to the back of her throat, she made herself throw up. She had eaten too much at dinner that night and needed to lose it before she became too fat.
She remembered what Brendan had said to her before she got onto the train. "Don't gain any weight while you are gone, you are starting to get too fat. Also, you better not forget to write to me everyday and you know I don't like it when you disobey me." She had nodded, kissed him on the cheek and walked through the barrier.
After throwing up a couple more times, she flushed the toilet and re-cleaned her teeth, before going back into her bedroom and falling asleep.

The next morning, Hermione was sitting at the Gryffindor table, pushing her food around on her plate, not wanting to eat anything. She looked over her timetable that McGonagall had just given her and saw that she had DADA first up, then Herbology, Arthimacy, History of Magic and then finishing up with Potions.
What a great Monday, she thought sarcastically; starting and ending with the Slytherin's. I suppose, seeing as the Dark Lord has died, they probably won't be as mean or prejudice as they once were but then that may be over doing it. Hopefully they will just ignore me and taunt the other Gryffindor's.
Oh look, here come Harry and Ron. It looks like they are on a mission to do something and are headed straight towards me, I wonder what they want. Once they had reached her, they each took an arm, stood her up, dragged her out of the hall and into an empty classroom. It was only once they had cast a silencing spell on the room that they let her go and started speaking.
"I'm not going to beat around the bush here Granger," Ron started. "We brought you in here to save you the embarrassment of us telling you this in front of the whole school. We have decided, Harry, Ginny and I, that is, that you are not worthy of being our friend. In case you are unaware, we only pretended to be your friends for your brains so that you could complete our homework and help defeat the Dark Lord."
"You need to realise that you're giving us a bad name," Harry continued, "and we no longer want you to tag along with us. You are an ugly, disgusting whore who doesn't deserve friends like us. Ron, Ginny and I will now be the new Golden Trio and everyone will remember us as the defeaters of Voldemort and forget all about you." Looking over at Ron, he let him finish.
"So you can do us a favour and stay out of our way, or you could jump off the Astronomy tower. Either way, we'll be happy." They then smirked at her and spun around, leaving the room after removing the silencing spell.
Hermione knew she should've felt angry, or betrayed, but it was rare that she felt any emotion any more so she just took a few deep breathes, and then followed them out the door and to her first class.
By the time she had gotten to the dungeons for her last lesson of the day, Hermione had been shunned by all the Gryffindor's who seemed to think that because the new Golden Trio had decided that she wasn't worth their time, she mustn't be worth theirs either. Entering the classroom, Hermione sat at the back hoping that Snape wouldn't pay any attention to her as usual. Unfortunately for her, although he didn't call on her in class, there was no way that he didn't notice her.

Well that's the chapter. Tell me what you think of it.
Don't kill me because of the cliff-hanger. Couldn't resist but I will put up the next chapter soon so you won't be waiting for long.
REVIEW please. :)
Love Me xx
