Hermione raced to the train. She brought her Time-turner so she could return it to Professor McGonnagal. When she finally boarded the train she put up her luggage and sat in her usual compartment. A few minutes later the compartment doors opened and there was Harry and Ron.

"'Mione!", they said together. "How was you summer?!"

Hermione was a little surprised of their a-little-too happiness. "Err….fine. You?"

'Great!", Harry said.

"Harry how can you be so happy all of a sudden when that Dursleys treat you so horrid?", Hermione asked.

"The Dursleys went on vacation and I got to stay by myself for some reason. Ron visited me."

"Ohhhh good for you Harry!"

"Yep! Things are starting to clear up…", he said jokily putting his arm around me. They all laughed.

"I have to go change. " , said Hermione suddenly.

Hermione walked to the bathroom. She got dressed and headed back. Suddenly her time-turner got caught with a compartment door handle. It dropped of the handle and tumbled back and forth. Hermione picked it up before it could tumble any more and break. Phew she thought. Good thing nothing happened.

********************************************************************************

She headed back and opened the compartment. There was an extremely handsome boy with black hair there. Maybe this is the wrong compartment she thought.

"Sorry.", she merely said.

He seemed not to be paying attention. He was writing in a black book. Hermione shrugged and started to close the door before the boy said something.

"Am I supposed to forgive you.", he said.

"Nope…you don't have to….I don't really care", she said getting kind of confused. Who is he to think he can get me like that?

"That's not what you will say to me one day.", he said still not looking at me but writing in his book.

Blah blah blah your wasting my life. she thought.

"And who exactly to you intend to be one day?", said Hermione getting really fed up.

"Who wants to know.", he said.

"Maybe if you look up you shall see.", Said Hermione in a rested way.

"What if I don't?", he said.

"It will be your loss.", I replied. I am getting kind of good at this. Thank you Malfoy.

He looked up and smirked. "You may leave."

Who does he think he's talking to? "What if I don't want to." she said sitting down across from him.

"What if I want to sit down and listen to your smart remarks all day? They are quite funny."

He looked up in her eyes and smirked. "You know…your alright."

"Why thank you I always wanted to know what a complete stranger thought of me. I cry everyday and pray for them to like me. I thank you.", she said sarcastically as she started out.

"I 'm not done talking to you.", he said.

"But I am.", replied Hermione.

"Oh your good.", he said going back to his book.

"It's a gift", she said and went out.

He grinned to himself. If only there was more of her around.

*************************************************************************************

Where are Harry and Ron? She opened a compartment with 2 girls and 1 boy.

"Sorry."

"Hey! You're the new girl, right?", the boy said.

"Huh?", she said.

"Hermione Granger?", he continued.

"Yes." She was starting to get very confused. "Come sit with us!", he continued. Hermione gave up on Harry and Ron and joined.
