"You see, Draco Malfoy, without your sarcastic replies to endure each morning and that arrogance only you could carry, I find myself somewhat missing you." Draco thought the biggest problem living for a year under the same roof as Hermione Granger was the probability of them killing each other. He never thought it would be falling in love with her.

"It's hard when you know you shouldn't hold on, and yet you're too in love to let go..." Hermione croaked. "Too in love? WAKE UP GRANGER and smell the coffee! The weasel does not love you! Because if he does, he wouldn't have cheated on you with some slag twice! " Draco hissed.

Newly Headgirl Hermione Granger returns to Hogwarts for her final year without Harry and Ron. She is eager for a stress free year but her happiness comes crashing down around her when Draco Malfoy is made Headboy. On the outside he still comes across as the same arrogant, cruel selfish person she knows all too well. However after a series of events where Draco saves her life and comforts her unexpectedly, Hermione realizes that he isn't the man she thinks he is. She knows he is tortured by painful memories from his past but he is determined to keep that hidden. As the unlikely pairings relationship develops, Hermione is unaware of the heartache, choices and new feelings she will come to discover. ******************************************************** DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the character's such as Hermione, Draco, Harry, Ginny, Ron etc as they all rightfully belong to the very talented JK Rowling.
