10- The First Day of School

                                    

                                          
Pansy and Ginny had already left for the Slytherin common room. They all skipped dinner. Hermione changed into her nightwear and passed Harry and Ron in the common room. She glared at them.
                          
"Why have you packed?" Harry said nervously.
                          
"I'm moving into the Slytherin Common Room." She said in a dull voice. She was tired of it, and wanted to pay no mind to them.
                          
 She walked past them, and headed to her new home.
                          
She arrived. Theo opened the portrait for her. "How are you doing?" He said, he put a hand on her shoulder.
                          
"Could be better, if I didn't feel like a piece of metal right now." She whispered back angrily. 
                          
"Give Draco a chance, I know it's hard but I know he needs you, even though he doesn't show it. He doesn't know when to let people in until they leave him." He said. She stayed silent and Theo had a nervous look.
                          
"Come on, I'll show you our dorm." He said hesitantly.
                          
She followed him up. Pansy was sleeping on his bed, Ginny was on Blaise's bed, sleeping beside him, with a pillow wall between them, Hermione chuckled at the sight. The bed on the left was empty, she assumed it was Draco's.
                          
"Goodnight Hermione." Theo smiled at her, and he went to sleep next to Pansy. She put her bags down, and started unpacking. She felt someone standing behind her.
                          
"You can use magic, you know." He whispered.
                          
"I wanted to keep myself busy, stay as long as I could away from you." She spat. She continued unpacking.
                          
He took out his wand and summoned her clothes to pack themselves. She stood up and turned around, she didn't realise how close behind her he was. She stumbled back, bumping into the small table behind his bed. Before she fell back, he caught her and held her wrist. She pushed him away. "What's your bloody problem?" She whispered angrily. 
                          
He looked towards the bed.
                          
"Don't make me sleep on the same bed as you." She said disgusted.
                          
he gripped her wrist tighter.
                          
"Don't act disgusted, I know you still feel something for me." He leaned in dangerously close, into her ear, he tilted his head to the side.
                          
"You're still my time of day." He whispered.
                          
She shoved him away, a hint of hurt was shown in his eyes, but it was removed quickly. She moved to his bed and slept on the left side, and turned away from him. He stood in place. Looking at where she was just seconds before. He went to the other side and was facing her back. 
                          
"Face me." He whispered.
                          
She turned towards him, anger on her face. Her eyes moved down to his arm. The bandages weren't there anymore. The skin ripped when he fell on it trying to catch the snitch, so that's why it bled. 
                          
The skin had healed quickly, and the bleeding stopped, but it looked red all over, like a rash. There were bruises on both his hands, on his knuckles, and bruises started forming around where she had tightly wrapped the bandage around. She looked into his eyes and he stared back. 
                          
He expected her to help him, but she just looked back, deep in his eyes, the eyes that would always hold her heart.
                          
She stood her ground and took a deep breath. She meant it when she said it would be the last time she would help him. She closed her eyes and slept. Draco became hurt but shrugged it off quickly. His gaze moved to her am, her left arm. Mudblood, it read. He traced the letters with his eyes. Hermione felt her arm burning, but ignored it. The last thing Draco remembers before he fell asleep was staring at Hermione's arm.
