Chapter 5!

"Where were we? Ah, My family moving into Granger Manor." Hermoine said as she straightened her posture.

The following friday my family moved into Granger Manor with the help of the Malfoy's. Draco and I became fast friends and did everything together. I met a couple of his friends through out the next couple years. I met Pansy and Blaise the following summer when all of our families vacationed to Australia for the summer. I became fast friends with Pansy and the four of us did everything together. The next summer I met Gregory Goyle and Vincent Crabbe. Draco stressed to me that he did not like them and their families only conversed in order for his parents to keep up appearances in case the Dark Lord rose to power again. He told me not to trust him.

The summer I turned 11 I got my letter to Hogwart's. I was so excited I ran over to Malfoy Manor, which is 10 blocks away.

"Draco, Draco I got my Letter." I ran into the Manor without even knocking.

"Hermoine Dear, What's wrong?" Narcissa saw me out of breath and looked worried.

"I just got my letter Ma'am. Where is Draco?" I said trying to regain my composure.

"Outside by the pool, Hermoine? Congratulations!" Narcissa came and gave me a hug. I walked through the great room and excited through the kitchen.

"Draco? I got my letter!" I screamed. He came running from the other side of the pool/

"I did too Hermoine. I just Owl'd you." Draco said as he gave me a kiss on the cheek. Things started to progress between Draco and I throughout the years. We still kept a good friendship but didn't have anymore sleepover's per our parents orders.

"Let's open them together Draco." I said as I started to open my letter at the same time Draco did.

We stood their for a moment reading their lists and then we walked inside and sat down in the Parlor Room waiting for our parents to join us. While we were outside Narcissa fire-called my parents at their Dentistry letting them know Draco and Hermoine got their letters. They were closing the practice for the day and going with everyone to Diagon Alley.
