It's 6th year at hogwarts and all the students are returning for another year, the golden trio included. Ron has had a crush on Hermione for a while now and he thinks that he might finally work up that gryffindor courage to tell her. Hermione is shocked and doesn't want to ruin a good friendship, Ron is understanding and eventually moves on. Harry doesn't understand why Dumbledore keeps leaving the school or why Draco isn't acting his usual self. Draco was given a horrible task that his stressing him out and he doesn't know what to do. Hermione notices Draco's odd behavior, and with her natural instinct to help, she tries to help him. When Hermione puts together the clues of Draco's behavior, she realizes she has boundries to how far she is willing to help people. ( I suck at writing these sorry ) NOTE: This fic will NOT have smut or anything like it. I simply wanted to write an Au about harry potter. I hope you enjoy!

"YOU DID WHAT RONALD??" She shouted with anger "I thought we would win an-" Ron said "Well you clearly didn't!" So many thoughts were going through Hermione's head. How could he do that? How could he use her as a bet prize?

Hermione Granger has brains, as everyone knows, so it's not very odd that she would be tutoring a few Hogwarts students who perhaps lack in their studies. But what happens when the student she is tutoring is no other than Draco Malfoy? Why is Dumbledore so keen on Hermione tutoring Draco even though it's against his will? And why is Draco feeling a little warmer towards Hermione despite his usual cocky, arrogant, and sarcastic comments? Well, all the answers are in this story of course!
