Love and Lust- Dramione (Potter Twins)

To Hogwarts We Go

Draco's POV

I sat in my room after I finished packing, thinking about how people would react when I returned to Hogwarts. Undoubtedly, they would not be very welcoming, but when they hear I'm head boy- they'll go ballistic! Pansy, Astoria, Blaise, Theo, Daphne, and a few others will be returning with me. I wonder if Golden Boy Pothead and his sidekick Weasel King will return? Of course, they will try and soak up all the glory- leaving Granger in the sidelines. Granger will definitely return! She'll never leave without completing her education.  

"Draco! Get your bags! We're apparating to King's Cross." Mother's voice rang through the hallway.

"Coming Mum!" I said, scrambling to get my luggage.

We apparate to the station, I kiss my mom goodbye and head out to grab a compartment for me and my friends.

"Hey Drake! Where're you going?" I whip around to hear Blaise say.

"Thanks." I muttered as I sat down. 

Suddenly, I hear reporters screaming and laughing. Ah.... the Golden Trio have arrived. 

Hermione's POV

I put my glamour charm back on for the reveal at the feast. Harry and I apparated to King's Cross at 8, along with the Weasleys. When we arrived there was a loud, anticipated commotion and all the reporters wanted to get a picture of the Golden Trio returning to Hogwarts.

After a lot of pushing and hexing, we made it into the train and grabbed a compartment with Luna, Neville, and much to my displeasure- Lavender Brown. We all sat there talking about everything that had taken place during the summer, while Lavender and Ron were snogging each other's face off. I was absolutely revolting! I had enough and decided to excuse myself, when...... The door burst open.

Malfoy was standing outside, panting. 

"Um... Can we help you Malfoy?" I asked politely.

"Um... Professor McGonagall said she wanted to see us at the head's carriage. You don't mind, do you Granger?" He said politely. 

"Of course," I said briskly as I began to leave, when Harry grabbed my wrist.

"Are you sure about this Isabelle? I just got my sister- my family back, I don't want you to go alone." He whispered.

"Harry, would you stop speaking in parsletongue! It's freaky now that I can't understand it!" Ron said finally breaking away from Lavender.

"I'll be careful. Besides if I kept you alive since 1st year, I could keep myself alive for a couple of minutes." I replied in parsletongue before walking out.

"I never knew you were a parslemouth." Draco said once we reached McGonagall's cabin.

"I'm not the brightest witch for nothing." I said with a shrug.

Draco's POV

Wow! Granger was so confident and handled all of that really well. Damn! She also looked so cute. Shit! What am I thinking? I can't be thinking all this about Granger- The Gryffindor Golden Girl, 1/3 of the Golden Trio, The Brains of the Golden Trio, Know- It- All, Teacher's Pet, Bookworm- Granger!

I shook myself out of those thoughts and entered the compartment that Professor McGonagall had just opened.

"Mister Malfoy, Miss Granger, do take a seat. You are the Heads of Year and will be sharing a common room with the Prefects. You have the authority to dish out detentions and remove house points. However, I do wish you to use this power wisely. The Prefects will be announced after the re-sorting and reveal ceremony. Any questions?" Professor McGonagall finished.

"What do you mean by re-sorting and reveal ceremony professor?" I asked.

" All pupils, old or new will be resorted since the war changed everybody. The reveal is a reintroduction of one old student. Now I shall leave you two to return to your carriages." She said crisply.

Granger and I got up to leave and walked down the train to our carriages. Before she stepped into her cabin I said-

"Granger? You know... uh... I'm really sorry for bullying you and your friends for all those years. I'm really sorry. That was how I was taught to be like. If I didn't act like that I would be punished. I know it's a lame excuse and I truly am sorry. I hope you can give me another chance so we can be friends, but I understand if you don't want to, because I deserve it."

Granger turned around to look at me. She had an emotion in her eyes I couldn't quite detect.

"I know how you feel Malfoy, and I'm sorry you had to go through all of that shit. I accept your apology, and we can be friends from now on." she said with an air of kindness and empathy.

We smiled at each other and left to our respective compartments. I smiled happily to myself. Maybe not everyone would hate me this year. Maybe I would no longer be friendless. Who knows?

Isabelle's POV

I entered the compartment smiling at the pleasant turn of events. I felt everyone's gaze on me. 

"What?" I asked.

"What happened with Malfoy, and why were you out so long?" Harry asked a bit suspiciously.

"Nothing! Malfoy and I had to visit Professor McGonagall's carriage for Head work." I replied .

"Why were you talking and smiling at him outside?" Harry asked me knowingly

I explained the situation to them and went to change my robes.
