Draco's POV:

I stared at her for at least a minute till she caught me. I frantically looked down and wondered why I was looking at her in the first place. Pansy linked arms with me and I faked a smile. Gosh, how much she annoys me. I don't even like her but she is in love with me. Obviously....
I eat dinner then meet McGonagall at the back of the room with the other prefects to discuss our rooms were.
When we were finally done, we
discovered that the two rivals had common rooms together. Hufflepuff with Ravenclaw in a common room and Slytherin with Gryffindor in a common room. Ugh. I have to share a common room with Granger. We entered our common room and saw that there was set of stairs on the left and right side of the wall all leading towards two doors at the top. At the bottom in a large space between the stairs was a sitting area with a medium-sized fireplace.
Hermione walked up to her room, well tried to with all her luggage, but I grabbed her suitcase before she did.
"Um.....thank you" she mumbled.

Hermione's POV:

I went to grab my suitcase but saw that it wasn't there, instead it was in Malfoy's hand.
"Um.....thank you." I mumbled.
We walked in to my room and he quickly left not forgetting to put my stuff down. My room had a red and goldish-yellow canopy around the top with a huge closet and bathroom. I figured Malfoy's would be the same but green and silver.
I unpacked my stuff and went downstairs and sat on the love seat. Malfoy came down minutes later and sat at the other end of the couch. I finally broke the silence.
"Malfoy, why are you acting so........Harry-like?"
"Huh?" he asked confused.
"Well, you're just being so nice and Harry's nice and well......never mind. "
"I never wanted to be a death eater. You know that right?" Malfoy asked.
"No"
"I didn't. I only did it because my parents forced me to so we wouldn't be killed by Voldemort."
That name sent chills down my back even though I've said it million other times before.
"But I've changed a lot Granger. I don't want to be that rude little pain in the arse kid that tormented everyone just because they're not a pure blood."
"That's another thing! You haven't called me a mudblood at all. I thought you were ill at first and didnt care till you got better." I exclaimed.
"I don't want to be mean anymore. I just want to put my past behind me. My father is dead from the dementors kiss and my mother is somewhere in Canada in a wizarding village. Will you forgive me for all of the times I messed with you and called you a mudblood?" He pleaded.
I thought about it for a minute then announced.
"Yes Malfoy I forgive you. Now I have to go to bed because classes are starting tomorrow and I don't want to be late." I proclaimed.
"I'll join you." He said
I looked at him with a confused look.
"Oh my gosh! I meant in my own bed of course. Sorry." He reassured.
"Okay. Goodnight Granger."
"Goodnight Draco"

Draco's POV:
I almost closed my door then realized! She called me Draco.......
