Hey guys!  I had off school on Wednesday due to snow, but that didn't mean i was going to post lmao.  I had to shovel the driveway, which was the first time, so i didn't have time because my driveway is so big it took me like 3 hours.

//Hermione's POV

"Good morning students!" Professor McGonagall called out to all of the busy students.  She had called all of the 7th years into one of Main Halls.  I smiled and laughed as Harry and Ron, who were on the opposite side of the room on the bleachers, waved at me.  

"As you all know, Valentines day is coming up!" murmurs started up throughout the room, and McGonagall cleared her throat,"  There will be a Valentines day ball."  Everyone started to talk frantically, and i caught eye with Ronald, and i immediately knew that we were going together.  But i sighed, for i knew someone elses eyes were on me.  I looked back over at him, and smiled weakly.  Draco got the memo, and looked down at his feet.  I felt terribly bad, i had ignored him ever since he told me truth, well half the truth.  I couldn't stand to be around him without wanting to be with him again.  I knew if we got back together, something would go wrong.  For now, i had to keep my distance.  But, truth be told, i did miss him terribly.  For every moment that i wasn't busy thinking about school and friends, i was thinking about him.  I was always thinking about him.  I missed everything about Draco.  The way his laugh made me feel, the smell of his wondrous hair, and even his soft lips.  I was tempted to run into his arms every time i saw him walking alone in the hallway.  Harry and Ron thought that I was over him, but i far away from that.  I missed his warm touch before bed, and his soft voice when i woke up.  

"You get to chose your own partners of course, but there will be a king and queen!  At the end of the ball, the king and queen will dance together, as tradition," McGonagall said, bringing me out of my thoughts.  I looked up at her, and smiled, determined to become that Queen.  Everyone thought that i was just a nerd, book loving girl that was friends with Harry Potter, and helped save the world of course, but that didn't change anything.  Everyone still came to me only for help on the homework, and sometimes to ask me about relationship problems because apparently i know it all.  I needed attention, just Ron did.  He got attention by being on the quidditch team, Harry is famous, but what about me?  Queen of the Valentines day ball would be nice for a change.  

"This Valentines Day Ball will be a great way to let everyone see my new muggle moves," Ron bragged happily.  He stopped and all of a sudden lifted his knees and his arms out and pulled his arms back in, and sort of skipped.

"Ron what hell are you doing?" i asked, slightly annoyed and embarrassed of what he was doing.  He stopped and laughed.

"Its called the Running Man, its the new cool muggle dance," he smirked.  I sighed, and Harry laughed as we continued to walk down the hall.  Ron continued to tell us of the muggle things his father had been finding out about.  I sighed, for i was a muggle born, and knew of everything he was talking about, as Harry was very interested.  

"Wait so its called a Nokia 8210?  That's so cool," Harry said dreamily.  I laughed, punching him in the arm.

"My mum has one, its pretty high-tech," I bragged with a smile.  

"Oh, look who's bragging, the future queen of Valentines day Ball," Harry smirked, punching me lightly in the arm back.  

"So who are you going with Hermione?" Ron asked, trying not to bring up the fact that he knew Draco was still one of my options.

"You can mention his name Ron, i won't go all psycho ex-girlfriend on you," I laughed.  Ron smiled and we continued down the hall.  I saw Draco to the other side of the hallway, avoiding me.  I felt bad, he had no friends.  I had no idea where Blaize and Daphne with Astoria were, but I was surprised to see that Pansy wasn't following him around.  I wondered if he was still popular in Slytherin.  While Ron and Harry were talking, i slowly made my way next to Draco.  He looked up at me, surprised to see.
