Chapter 4: Into the Complex Mind of Granger

Draco was proud of himself the potion was working perfectly, and he had only been with her for about ten minutes. It was all to perfect.
"Granger?"
"Yes?"
"Who was your first crush?"
"Um at Hogwarts, probably Harry, but Mitchell was my first crush ever." She stated. He stared at her.
"You liked Potter?" He asked unconvinced.
"For about a week, probably because he helped save me from the trolls. Then I realized we were better off as friends." She replied.
"So you liked a kid named Mitchell."
"Yes, I probably still would."
"Would?"
"He died, of cancer a year or two after I came to Hogwarts. I was sad really, he was my best muggle friend at the time. I cried for weeks when I heard the news."
"Wait in second year?"
"Well yes."
"Around what time?"
"Um probably a week before you called me mudblood, for the first time."
"Oh." Now he felt guilty. The girls best friend had died, and a week later he called her the most horrid name to call someone. He shoved those thoughts aside. He needed to take control over his emotions.
"I wouldn't feel bad about it, I guess I forgive you now. Besides no one knew anything."
"So none of you Gryffin pals notice you crying for weeks?"
"Nope, not that they would care at the time. We were only twelve. I can't blame them for that. Besides they were so busy." She responded.
"When did Granger have so many secrets?' He began to wonder. 'I know she's a Gryffindor but this is pathetic.'
"You have any more secrets?" He asked looking at her. She nodded.
"Fourth year my parents got a divorce. My dad cut off all connections with me." She whispered. He stared at her.
"Oh."
"It's not that bad. I mean it's ok, if he left it's not like I needed him in the first place." She replied perking back up. Like a child. He just looked at her. He had a new found respect for this girl.
"Sure Granger, sure." After that he wasn't really in the mood to ask questions. So he stopped talking in general.
'I don't need to through her a pity party, she's the least of my worries right now. Dark Lord is my most important task at the moment.' He inwardly yelled at himself. He glanced over at the Head Girl. She seemed to stare off into space. Completely oblivious to the world.
After a few hours they went back, he passed her the antidote, which was also in a sleeping draught. It made his life so much easier.
She gulped it down. Then she fell asleep back unto the couch. He looked at her, and sighed.
'Maybe she isn't so bad.' He thought. He felt a pang of guilt, he had been awful to her. But she was a Mudblood, but did that really matter to him?

Hermione woke up, with her head throbbing. Groaning she realized she was in the common room, again.

Getting up, and walking slowly to her room, she saw the time. It was right before midnight. Why hadn't Malfoy woken her up. Now her debt was doubled. Gently closing her door, she prayed it wasn't just some stupid prank. She flopped into her bed.

'Where had this day gone' she pondered. When realization bit her. She hadn't the slightest clue on what had happened all she remembered was drinking the water Malfoy gave her. She groaned.

Malfoy must have poisoned the water with some sort of sleeping draught, to make her look like an unprofessional Head Girl. She swore under her breath.

'That bloody awful git!' She internally yelled. Shoving her face in her pillow she decided to show him up tomorrow. He was going to be the unprofessional one now. Not her.

Draco woke up and heard the shower running. He rubbed his head, he didn't get much sleep that night. He was to busy thinking over a matter in his head.

'She's a Mudblood, but she did better than me in everything. How is this possible? Aren't I, the pureblood, supposed to top her in everything? Maybe what father told me was wrong. I knew his choices were god awful ones, but I didn't know his facts where this off as well.' Those words coursed through his brain last night, and kept replaying but only in different words.

Getting up he jogged over to the shower. He rammed his hand on the door.

"Granger hurry up!" He yelled.

"Sorry I got up earlier than you." She quipped back. Still hogging the shower.

"Come on, your usually never up this early!" He complained. "How was I supposed to know that today, you would finally care about hygiene!"

"Malfoy! Your prat!" She shouted while opening the door. Her hair was all dry, and wavy. The bushiness that it once was, was gone now. He stood aghast, as if paralyzed. "For your information I've always cared about hygiene." She muttered, going around him.

Guilt surged through his body. He hadn't meant it the cruelly, honestly. Just enough to make her get out of the shower. Well she did get out, so he stepped in.

When he was finished he was surprised to see her. Waiting for him.

"I know what you've been up to Malfoy." She spoke.

"You do?" He flinched.

"Yes, your little plan may have worked this time, but next time I swear it won't!" She exclaimed.

"Look Granger I'm sorry..." He began.

"Well you should be! How dare you use a sleeping draught on me, and make me miss rounds all day yesterday. And I'd be surprised if you even did it again." She yelled. He felt relieved, so that's what she thought he did. He played along.

"As a matter of fact I did do rounds, sorry I didn't want your annoying chatter giving me a migraine. Your always annoying me, so just bugger off!" He replied. He looked at her just to see a sign of hurt appear on her face, but as quickly as it came it left.

"Whatever Malfoy." She muttered while storming off.

He honestly couldn't blame her for being mad. He had basically just drugged her, and she didn't even know the half of it. Then he decided to act like a prat again. He sighed and headed off to breakfast. Today was going to be a long day for him.

Ok so as I've said before, changing a lot of things. Making this as emotional as possible. So sorry if you where looking for an exact plot fanfic. Added a few details in Hermione's life, and sorry if you think this is moving to fast. Hope you enjoyed!
