Hermione had just finished unpacking and looked around her new room. She had been incredibly excited to come back to Hogwarts and loved the fact that she had her own room. It was a lot like her room when she was Head Girl but this time, it was just, better! It seemed more like hers, not just a room that changed every year and had a new person living in it every year, but hers. She looked back around the room and thought back to her goodbyes earlier that day. It seemed silly really. She’d be able to visit them in a few weeks, but everyone had made such a big deal. Giant bear hugs and Molly crying. But it was really sweet of them. She loved the thought they put into it. Snapping out of her thoughts she realized she had to meet Snape in twenty minutes.





Straightening up her clothes and grinning she put her robe on and walked down the old familiar halls. She decided she wanted to be a little early. To observe their new classroom and maybe get a few minutes to talk to the other person she would be studying with. Always good to get to know the person you’ll be making potions with. She knew for a fact some of the potions could be dangerous and being able to trust your partner was key.

She found herself giddy as she turned the final corner and opened the door. She looked around the room and saw a tall well built man talking to a portrait. Hermione was never one to pass up admiring so she let her eyes wander. Tall, great butt, strong looking back, great wide shoulders but her gaze stopped dead at the blonde hair. Short and messy and completely gave him away.





“No.” She said, “Draco?”





Draco turned around and immediately took a step back and instinctively took a defensive position. His face going bright red. She was everything he had fantasized about and more. She defiantly grew into her body and stood with a new found confidence that was just sexy. Her hair was hanging just past her shoulders and had settled into smooth silky ringlets. She had soft feminine curves and stood as if she knew it. Her face seemed just as it was three years ago but her eyes seemed older as if they knew so much more. She arched an eyebrow at him. The thought of how confident and passionate she could be went straight to his groin.





“What are you doing here?” She asked.





“I’m... I’m here to learn. I got accepted” he managed to stutter out. His confidence returning.





“You what? You disappeared of the face of the earth after the final battle. How on earth did you get accepted into this program?”





“I earned it” he said indignantly. “Just because you didn’t see me doesn’t mean I didn’t work for it”





The old habit of fighting was coming back to Hermione and she then said something she immediately regretted.





“Please. I bet you bought your way in. Or are trying to. Why are you even here? Go back to your mansion”





Draco’s eyes immediately hardened and he stalked towards her. Frightened she backed into the door.

“I deserve to be here. I worked damn hard to get here. Don’t you dare question that. You have no idea what my life has been like since you became a god damn hero and had everything handed to you on a platter. I should be asking you the same questions. Who would turn down the infamous Hermione Granger?”





Draco had now managed to almost pin her against the wall without even touching her. His form towered over her and his angry eyes menacing and his tone cold. Hermione should have been scared. But she found herself aroused being so close to him. Watching his chest rise and fall, his piercing eyes on her and the scent of him. Sandalwood and honey. She found herself blushing as she looked at his lips.





“Focus! Focus Hermione!” she thought, “Stop thinking about him and think of a comeback”. But she couldn’t she sagged her shoulders in defeat realizing that this was not a good way to start and that she had in fact baited him. It was just hard to think with him so close. He was right. She had no idea what his life had been like and what he’d been through. She decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, give him a chance. She’d need to or they’d kill each other in a week. As much as she hated to admit it. Draco could always keep up with her mentally and he always knew how to get to her.







Draco, for his part was just enjoying being this close to her. Gods he loved the way she stared him right back in the eye. Never backing down. She just glowed with passion. He watched her chest heave up and down as he worked her up and admired the flush of her cheeks. Loving the smell of her, like pomegranate. An exotic sensual smell. Wondering what she would do if he ran his hands in her hair and slammed her up against the door and snogged her stupid. Suddenly, he watched her shoulders sag. She sighed and looked up at him.





“I’m sorry, you’re right.” Draco was gobsmacked.

She watched as he relaxed and looked at her with a smile in his eye trying to hide his grin. But he didn’t back away. If anything he leaned his head in closer. Hermione almost closed her eyes and leaned in closer. She somehow managed to stop herself.





“So what have you been up to all these years?”She asked looking up at him with her beautiful amber eyes.

Draco grinned and Hermione mentally gasped. He was absolutely gorgeous when he grinned. It wasn’t the usual cruel smirk but a genuine smile. She vowed she’d try and make it happen more often. Draco was about to answer when the door in the back of the classroom suddenly swung open and Snape glided through with his black cape hovering and went to the front of the class and stared menacingly at his two new students who jumped at his entrance and now stood side by side. One doe eyed and the other grinning.





“Professor, that entrance only scares first years.” Draco said brashly. And then something happened that Draco never expected. He heard laughter. Looking to his side he saw Hermione laughing. Looking up at him smiling. It was genuine and it not only made him blush but sent a need straight to his cock. He vowed to make her do that as often as possible. It was the most beautiful sound and her eyes sparkled. Not to mention she smiled. At him. She had never done that before. He loved it.





Professor Snape simply arched an eyebrow and motioned for them to approach him.





“So.” Snape drawled, “These are my apprentices.”





“Yes sir.” They said in unison.





“You are the ones who think you deserve my knowledge”





“Yes sir.”





“Do you think you can handle what I can teach you?”





“Yes sir.”





“Can you handle never looking at things the same way again?”





“Yes sir.”





“Very well. These are your expectations. I will see you three times a week for six hour sessions. I will teach you many things so come prepared. On top of this I expect you to know enough to teach. So each of you will teach a first year class once a week and two second year classes together a week. You should know a subject well enough that I can give you the lesson plan an hour in advance so I suggest you brush up on the basics, unless you feel like being covered in goo and incompetence regularly. We will start tomorrow and then after Hermione will teach her first class and Draco will start the day after that. You will receive a schedule shortly. I will be observing your teaching skills at random intervals so be prepared. I will not hesitate to correct you in front of children. Now I suggest you leave and prepare because tomorrow will be... Interesting”





Draco and Hermione nodded, thanked the professor and quietly exited. Hermione for one was incredibly excited. Draco was feeling sick to his stomach. He had managed to keep a low profile for 3 years and now he would have to expect people to look and listen to him. To learn... From him! He quickly noticed Hermione walking away and ran to catch up to her.





“Hey.” he said





“Hey yourself.”





“Can I walk you back to your room?”





“Sure.” She said with a smile.





The walk back was silent but both were enjoying just being around each other. Hermione was enjoying herself because it was fascinating to her. This new Draco. Draco was enjoying himself because it was nice to be around someone different and unpredictable for a change. Not to mention just enjoying an excuse to be near her and look at her. He was enjoying the idea that there was hope. That she still didn’t hate him. That he could have a friend that likes him for him. That some slim chance of her being attracted to him could form from the possible friendship. The what if’s built up in his mind and suddenly he was at her door and she was saying goodnight to him. And she smiled at him. Draco tried to remain stoic. But the minute her door closed he was grinning like a fool. He managed to grin all the way back to his room. It had defiantly been an interesting day.
