A Change Of Heart : Dramione

Prologue:

Hermione Granger is the only one from the Golden Trio returning to Hogwarts for her 7th year. She stayed at the Burrow for half of the Summer with her boyfriend and best friends. Since Harry and Ron aren't returning Ginny will be going with her. Ginny and Hermione had gotten really close during the summer and are now both best friends. They would be leaving for Hogwarts tomorrow.

Hermione's POV

I was in the room Ginny and I shared packing my trunk for the last year of Hogwarts, I was so excited but really upset at the same time. It was my last year after all. Ginny broke me from my chain of thoughts and said

"Are you excited for this year?"

"Of course, we have our NEWTs this year. Its gonna be so much fun!"

"Hermione, their called Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Tests for a reason, y'know."

I just shook my head and continued packing until a few minutes later Mrs Weasley called us down to go to the Hogwarts Express for the very last time.

We went downstairs and Ron hugged Ginny and gave me a quick peck on the cheek. I didn't get to see him much, anymore, he was so caught up with his training with the Chudley Cannons. Then Harry hugged Ginny and they shared a long, passionate kiss. Then Harry hugged me. Harry didn't need to go back because he knew Minister Shacklebolt which gave him an advantage to go ahead with being an auror.

Ginny and I got outside and there was a muggle limo waiting for us. Ginny squealed and ran inside with me following closely behind. It was so big on the inside, with blue lights and lots of chocolate. Ginny stuffed some in her bag for the train ride, urging me to follow, which I did. Off to Kings Cross Station.

Draco's POV

I really didn't want to return to Hogwarts, but mother urged me to go and finish my education. So I had to, even though everyone will hate me. I'm only going to make mother happy, since she's been down since my father was sentenced to Azkaban.

But yeah, let the torture begin. The only good thing is that I'm Head Boy, which should earn me some respect. Probably not though, since I'm an ex-death eater. I bade goodbye to my mother and grabbed my trunk, then I apparated to a corner of Kings cross station. Let the torture begin.

Hermione's POV

We walked on to Platform 9 3\4 to be greeted by the bustle of it all. The red beauty stood in the middle of it all. The Hogwarts Express.

I handed my trunk to the two people who were loading them onto the trunk. I had a book and a bag in my hands for the train ride. I was walking on to the train and then I bumped in to a chest of someone. I dropped my book and we both leaned down to reach it and I saw some locks of platinum blonde hair that I would recognise anywhere. He picked it up for me and said

"sorry Granger, didn't see you there"

"no, no,no its my fault. I wasn't looking"

He smiled a genuine smile and handed me my book. God, why was he being so nice, and why was I being nice to him?

Only time will tell, I guess.
