Basically Hermione is accidentally sent back in time and falls for one of the characters. I'm writing this because time turner fics never (well almost never) go the way I want them to so just enjoy and tell me if I should stop while I'm ahead ;D

Chapter one: Malfoy Always gets in the Way

(Hermione's point of view)

"Miss Granger, would you follow me please?"

Harry, Ron and Ginny all turned to look at Hermione curiously when Professor McGonagall came and called her out. Well of course she was expecting it but it slipped her mind to tell them what it was all about, though she knew she would now have to answer to them later.

After informing them that she would not belong she followed the professor down the carriages to the one where the prefects normally occupied. Feeling nervous and excited she sat down opposite her head of house to receive her new time turner to help her cope with her studies as well as her prefect duties.

"Now Miss Granger, I'm sure I don't have to inform you of how important it is that you use this carefully," Professor McGonagall said sternly. "If it gets too much or too stressful just hand it back in and we shall alter your timetable." She finished and handed the small box over to Hermione.

Hermione smiled while she walked back to her friend's carriage as she fingered the box containing her new time turner.

'Guess I can tell Harry and Ron about this now. It will be better then tip toeing around them like third year… and as long as there are no convicts that are my friends Godfather I should be fine,' she thought as she got back to her carriage. As Hermione opened the door she meet with three pairs of curious, but slightly annoyed, eyes.

"So what did McGonagall want Mione?" asked Harry.

She glanced at Ginny. 'Guess it couldn't hurt to tell her too.'

"You guys can't tell anyone this, ok?" Hermione said, quickly closing the door.

She waited until they all nodded so she could continue. "Well as I'm taking more subjects then most Professor McGonagall decided that it would be best if I were to have my time turner back this year."

Ron was the only one not entirely happy with her response.

"So why tell us now then? You weren't allowed to in third year right, so what changed? Suddenly decided that we're trustworthy now?" he said angrily.

Hermione looked up calmly as the oh-so famous Weasley temper showed itself again. Luckily for Hermione she knew how to ignore and deal with an annoyed Ron Weasley.

"Ron you know perfectly well I was sworn to secrecy last time. You were always trustworthy but I'm not one to go against a teachers wishes and you know that. This time, however, Professor McGonagall didn't say whether I could tell anyone or not. I think she just realized I wouldn't be able to keep it from you this time," Hermione finished thoughtfully.

Through the speech Ron began to deflate and by the end he looked up and sighed.

"I know you're right Mione but you know how we get when we're left out."

Harry snorted with laughter at that. "No Ron, she knows how you get I don't think Ginny or me have ever done that."

Ron looked over at Harry smiling. "Well either way," he turned back to Hermione.

"Just don't keep us out again."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hermione was running as fast as she could to an empty classroom so that she could use the time turner unnoticed.

'I can't believe that it's only first class and I already need to use this thing!' Hermione thought in disbelief. And it was just her luck that potions was with the most snarky teacher in the school. Professor Snape was never one for allowing students in late if there was no serpent on their robes and would love for a Gryffindor prefect to come to his class late, more specifically if it were her.

Just as Hermione got to an empty room the door opened and closed so fast that by the time she turned around the door was already locked. When she turned around she met a pair of silver-grey eyes.

"What are you doing here Granger? You don't wanna be late for Snapes class."

"I could say the same for you Malfoy now bugger off."

"Now, now Granger … what's that?" He asked, looking at the hourglass in her hand.

"Never you mind now just bugger off Malfoy!" Hermione said slightly panicked.

Malfoy shook his head and quickly grabbed it out of her hand while Hermione was silently cursing his Quidditch reflexes. Malfoy looked down at the small object in his hand smirking.

"You know I could send you anywhere right now and no one would notice at all," said playing with the small sand filled pendant.

'Argh come on! Why does Malfoy always have to get in the way?!' Hermione thought desperately.

"And you know what Granger?" He whispered. "I might just do that."

As soon as the words left his mouth he began to spin the hourglass. Backwards.

The last thing she saw before blacking out was Malfoy's smirk and swirling colours signaling that she was going back in time. Fast.
