"He is," Hermione answered. "a very good friend of mine." She finished.
At that moment, it became clear to Draco what it is he really wanted. It was nice to hear her say it herself that he is her very good friend. However, it soon came down on him that he wanted more than that.
He wants to be with her every day. Look at her face every single time he could and drown himself in the depths of her brown eyes. He wants to watch how her lips move and revel in wonder of how it would feel like against his own.
Salazar! He wants to kiss her.
"What ever happened to you and Ronald?" Mrs.Granger asked. "It just didn't work mom." Hermione responded. They were taking a stroll on the school grounds.
Draco coughed at that and Hermione threw him a sharp glare over her shoulder. He put his hands up in the air in plea for his innocence. When she didn't change the way she was looking at him, he laughed. "What?" He asked.
He has no idea why he's on Hogwarts tour with the Grangers but he can't say he's not liking it. On the contrary, he was immensely enjoying it. Hermione's mom is smart and very funny while her dad is quite the versatile conversationalist.
"I'm positive Hermione will be head girl." Draco said when Mrs.Granger congratulated him for getting the head boy position much earlier. "Indeed?" Mrs.Granger asked.
"She's always top in our batch. Always made sure I was only second after her." Draco explained. These earned a laugh from the parents and embarrassment from the daughter. "She's the most righteous and just person I know. I have no doubt about it. She would be head girl. I bet my badge on that."
And some time later...
"I'm glad I get to know how my daughter is doing through you." Mr.Granger said with a smile as he extended his arm to shake the young man's. "I only have good things to say about your daughter sir. It is a pleasure on my part to have shared it to her parents."
Still gripping the young man's hand, Mr.Granger spoke once more. "It is a pleasure to meet you too son. Do visit us over the summer so we can repay you for accompanying us today."

Hgranger: Thank you for today.
Dmalfoy: I had fun. So I benefited from the experience.
Dmalfoy: You have a wonderful family Hermione.
Hgranger: Well it was a rather charming event, wasn't it?
Hgranger: Not only was my mom taken in on you, but it seems my dad feels the same way.
Dmalfoy: Were they, really?
Hgranger: Of course. Why else would he invite you over summer when they wouldn't even be around then?
Dmalfoy: That is quite confusing. Do enlighten me.
Hgranger: My parents are to go to Australia for a convention over the summer.
Hgranger: I am to stay with the Potters.
