HERMIONE'S POV

As requested after the feast I went straight up to the Headmistress office, still trying to figure out who the Head Boy was. The second I enter the room, I got my answer. Sitting in a chair facing Professor McGonagall was a tall lean platinum haired boy, Malfoy. Why him, Professor had millions of boys to choose from and she chose Malfoy. That stupid ferret, he ruins everything! At first when he turned around to face me he was smirking then his jaw dropped at the sight of me, I had changed so much. I soon noticed he was staring at me with his mouth dropped from seeing how different I looked. I just smirked at this. I walked over and sat in the seat next to Malfoy and accidently brushed my hand against his when reaching for my parchment and quill. A course of energy ran through my veins and it started at the point of where our hands met. I pretended it was nothing and looked up at her Professor. "Thank you both for taking up the positions of being Head boy and Head Girl, I just wanted to explain a few things to you before you head off." The Professor looked between me and Malfoy, her top two students and smiled. "You will need to sort out patrols which you and the prefects will carry out also you two are to come up with any ideas for balls or fundraisers but all plans must be run by me first. Now will you please follow me?" It wasn't a question but more of a statement, we both nodded at her statement, once again brushing our hands as we both reached for our stuff to follow in suit of our professor. The second our hands casually touched I pulled away feeling the electricity course once again through my veins. Malfoy stared at me in a weird way. Not backing down, I looked straight into his. I had never noticed but his slivery eyes had a blue ring around the pupil. I wonder if Malfoy felt the shock earlier. What does it mean? Professor McGonagall led us to a portrait which was of a black rose but on the inside the rose was red. There was some writing at the bottom of the page which I couldn't understand; I was never good at languages. My thoughts were interrupted by Malfoy reading the message. "Don't just look at what's on the outside, look on the inside and you might be surprised." Who knew Malfoy's best subject were languages? Impressive, the ferret actually has use? I thought that the quote was beautiful, but I was also confused as to why Professor McGonagall might be showing us this beautiful artwork. "This is your common room, inside there are two dormitories and one bathroom, I hope you find it suitable. Once I leave, you two must decide on a password. Good night, I will see you Tuesday for your Prefects meeting." Just as she was leaving I decided to ask the obvious question, "wait we are sharing living quarters?" Our Professor just smirked and simply nodded curtly before turning and leaving. "So what should be our password?" I ask trying to be civil. There is no way I will be able to put up with this ferret all year long. "How about we don't have one." I scoffed at this, how stupid can one ferret be. "You need a password for it to work Malfoy." I stated.He pulled out his wand and quickly grabbed my hand I didn't bother to register the fact that when he grabbed my hand I felt like my had enough energy in my body to sink a battle ship. At first I was shocked, then confused as to why he grabbed my hand? Malfoy muttered a quick spell which I couldn't hear then he looks up at me. "Open the door." Malfoy said casually. "For that to work we need a password Malfoy." I pointed out again. "Just push the portrait Granger." I could tell I was making him frustrated at it was hilarious. Finally giving in I slowly put my hand on the door and gave it a push, it opened straight away, but how? I turned to Malfoy, What had he done to make that happen? "What spell did you use on my hand to make it a sort of key?" I asked casually. Not trying to sound eager to learn magic but even I had to admit it was a cool spell. "Just a handprint recognising spell, no password required and the portrait can only be opened by our hands." He explained while casting the same spell on his hand.

I walked through the portrait and took in the room, there was a grand fire place and maroon and green patched couch opposite it. To the left of the couch was a green arm chair and opposite that was a red one. On the other side of the room was a small kitchenette, also if you looked up from there you could see two round rooms which where upstairs. I ran up the stairs to check out her room whilst Malfoy still explored the downstairs section. My door was red with gold interior on it. I traced my finger lightly over my name on the door written in gold. Beautiful.
