Stage 1: Be nicer to Granger/Hermione
Draco messed up his hair perfectly. Today was the day he was going to watch the telly and get Hermione to fall for him. Two goals, both easily achievable.
"MALFOY!" Hermione called for him.
"Yes?" he elegantly called back.
"WHAT. DID. YOU. DO!" she stomped up the stairs with each word and finally arrived at his door.
"I did what?" At this point, he was actually confused.
"THIS!" Hermione shrieked. She was holding what used to be her Yule Ball dress, only it was ruined by a giant brown stain. "I was holding on to this for my memories of the Yule Ball, it was special!"
Draco shook his head. "Look, Hermione, I didn't do this. BUT, if you let me outside, I will pay for its dry cleaning and repair, alright?"
Hermione just stared at him.
"What, Hermione? Enjoying the view?"
Hermione just shook herself out of shock. "Y-you're being….nice to me?"
Draco smirked and closed the door in her face. "Great to see you!"
"Oh no you don't! Draco Malfoy, you open the door right this instant!" Hermione struggled, but she wasn't strong enough to open the door by herself.
Draco smiled. Weaselbee must be coming over soon, or else she wouldn't be losing her head because of a dress. The Hermione he knew was stronger than that.
"Fine," Draco smiled. He opened the door right as Hermione was putting her full strength on the door, and she crashed through his room- onto the man of the hour, Draco.
"Gah! Bloody woman, get off me!"
"Draco, I can't! My hand is caught between the bookshelf!"
"Neither can I!"
"Why not! Ah! Something's got my hand!"
"That would be my hand."
Ginny chose that moment to enter the room. "Herms, you okay? I heard some thumps fr-"She froze in shock.
"Ginny, this isn't what it looks like!" Hermione tried desperately to cover the scene.
Ginny burst out laughing. "Draco, I knew you had a thing for Hermione, but Herms! Acting on yours!"
Both Draco and Hermione were confused.
"Wait, Draco likes me?"
