Ginny, Luna, and I headed back to Harry's cabin and talked -well Ginny tried flirting with Harry- the rest of the ride to Hogwarts. As soon as we got our bags we headed out to walk to the castle. " I'm so glad to be back here" i said clearly with a huge smile in my face. "Of course you are Hermione." I laughed and thats when we saw him. Draco Malfoy. He looked at me not rudely or mad just looked at me. I had no reason why my heart raced with excitement and anticipation. He was different. Well not to me after all after he had helped me with Ronald and Pansy. It still effected me.

Ginny kept giving me a weird look and the same look at the Slytherin table. "What is it Gin?" i was worried shes been quiet ever since Harry said that he would never like her because she was his mates sister. "Malfoy keeps starring at you."  I looked up and found him staring. He looked away when I made eye contact. "You caught him" I couldn't help but smile.

I stood up and walked past Harry. "Hermione where you going?" I looked back at Ronald and shot him a look "Where do i always go?" Ron looked down. "Oh... Right have fun in there Hermione." I walked over to Ron and placed my hand on his "see you later Ron"

I was walking down an empty corridor until i was pushed into a hiding place behind a wall and was kissed roughly. I pulled back and saw HIM. "What are you doing here?" i asked him. "I love you Hermione Jean Granger."
