A/N: this chapter is the writers point of view. it will jump from viewing draco to viewing hermione at different times. it's a bit shorter than the other chapters, sorry! every time i switch between hermione and draco, you will see eight of these: * ! just wanted to let you know, so you wouldn't be confused! okay, continue!

There was a loud outburst from across the room, Draco yelling at Pansy. Hermione had noticed there was hard anger in his voice. 'Hmph. As if it was true.' She thought. Hermione thought Draco fancied pug-faced Parkinson over her. After all, who wouldn't after the kiss on the cheek?

********

Draco stared at Hermione for a while before Pansy snapped at him,

"Draco! Quit staring! Pay attention to meeee, Drakie-poo!" She simply smiled her evil smile at him.

"R-right." Draco stammered, breaking out of his trance. He talked to Pansy, although he didn't show any affectionate feelings towards her. Every once in a while, more often than not, he glanced at Hermione, only to find her still writing. 'Sheesh. She must be writing a novel!' He thought. Every time he glance at her, Pansy roughly placed her icy hands on his neck and twisted him back to face her. 'God, this girl is demanding!' Draco thought.

(class has ended)

" 'Mione, you seemed a little off in class today. Everything all right?" Ron asked Hermione softly.

"Oh, everything's fine, yes." She replied, but she didn't seem focused. The trio continued walking towards Hagrid's hut for Care of Magical Creatures when a voice called out,

"Oi! Potter!" Harry, Ron, and Hermione all turned and found themselves face to face with none other than Draco Malfoy himself. Hermione glared at him with more anger than anyone else before saying,

"What do you want, Malfoy?" She emphasized 'Malfoy' to make a point.

"I said Potter, not Granger, you pathetic little mudblood!" Draco snapped icily at Hermione, then immediately regretted it. Hermione looked taken aback for a moment, the composed herself and said,

"Your words don't affect me, Malfoy. You're nothing but a foul little cockroach." And she slapped him across the face with all the strength she could muster. With Ron and Harry roaring with laughter as Malfoy clutched his face, the trio walked away.
