Draco's POV:
I was called down to the headmasters office, unsure why. Its the first day, I know I haven't caused any trouble yet I thought. I stopped at the door, and paused a moment, about to knock before it suddenly swung open.
"Ah, mister Malfoy, please come, take a seat" Professor, of now headmaster, McGonagall said. She pointed to a chair right beside a girl I recognized as Hermione Granger. I knew her alright, a filthy mudblood, annoying know-it-all, yeah I knew her. "What is this about?" I asked, getting directly to the point.
"Mister Malfoy, you and miss Granger have been selected this year to be head boy and head girl" McGonagall said with a smile. I had forgotten about that, head boys and head girls were special roles given out to two of the seventh years, for whatever reason it may be. Hermione definitely got it because of her grades, but I never did anything good, why had I gotten it?
Hermione seemed very excited. Too excited. "Oh thank you headmaster, thank you so much for your kindness!" she jumped up. I cringed at the act, oh calm down Granger. "You're very welcome miss Granger. Now, you two, come with me to your new dorm". "Hold up" I said firmly "what do you mean new dorm?" "Well, since you two are head boy and head girl now, you get a private, special, shared dorm"
I was horrified. I had to share a dorm with Granger? No no no, that was just torture, I couldn't live with her for a whole year! As I was panicking, McGonagall motioned for me to follow her and Granger out of the office. I sighed, I had to follow, I couldn't just stay here all night. Reluctantly, I followed.
Up in one of the towers, they had arrived at their new dorm, it was a lot larger than my last one, and quite nice I will admit. "Okay, now that you two know where it is, I'll leave you to get settled" McGonagall said as she quickly slipped away. Once she was gone, Granger squealed as she ran to one of the rooms that she can claimed hers. Oh would you shut up? I could already feel the headache rushing in.
"Granger you better not be like that all night" I said coldly. She looked confused "like what?". "Excited". She walked closer to him slowly, "why? What's wrong with excitement? I'm the head girl!" "It's annoying". Granger just giggled and continued doing her thing, somehow completely unbothered that they had to share a dorm.
So this was my year. Sharing a dorm with a mudblood, and an annoying one at that. I sighed, rubbing my temples, I never asked to be head boy. My father probably paid them to do this he thought. My family had enough money to supply everyone here in this school, so my father bought his and my was into practically everything.
I walked over to the other, empty room and dropped my trunk against the wall. I looked around, the room had light grey walls like my last one, a queen sized bed in the center of the cube shaped room, and some blackout curtains. The dorm itself contained two bedrooms, a mini kitchen, a small living space, and a bathroom. Great, one singular bathroom that I'd have to share with Granger, how absolutely wonderful.
It was only 3:00, but I lay down in my bed, at least the mattress was soft, and closed my eyes. Maybe this was all a dream and I would get to go back to a dorm in the Slytherin Common Room, shared with his friends, not Granger. But when they opened, he was still there, still the head boy, still in the room beside his crush.
