I own nothing…

Well, this is my very first Harry Potter fiction. So, please read and review :D

Summary: They always argued. But when it was just they two, they were acting… weird. It always started with an argument, and ended with same words and an unexpected thing… or expected? (DMHG)


Chapter 1 -Book-

Hogwarts just like another day. Hundred of students flooded the hallway. Yeah, what do you expect from a school after all?

5 p.m.

"My, why does McGonagall always give us bunch of homework?" Ron groaned when they just exited the Transfiguration class. Harry just stared at his friend and muttered agreement. Hermione rolled her eyes to her best friends.

"Guys, it was just essay. Why do you two always complain everything?"

Harry and Ron glared at her. She glared back.

"What?" She said.

"Nothing." They muttered.

They continued to walk toward their Common room, until…

"Always acting like the smartest, don't you Granger?" said an annoying voice.

The trio looked at the voice. It was none other than Draco Malfoy.

"Ignore them…"Hermione whispered. She grabbed their arms and walked away.

"How could a mud blood ignore me, guys?" He mocked them and laughed with his minions.

Hermione froze at Malfoy's word. So did her friends.

Harry and Ron pointed their wands toward Malfoy. Crabbe and Goyle stepped back.

"Take that back, Malfoy!" Ron warned. Malfoy sneered at his wand.

"Or what?" He asked.

"Or this…" Harry was about to shot a curse to him when Hermione stepped her foot on Malfoy's.

Malfoy looked at her foot and glared at her.

"How dare you, Granger…" He said and still glared at her brown eyes.

Hermione glared back. "You started first. Or do you prefer I punch your nose again?" She lifted an eyebrow.

"You'll regret that, Granger…" Then they walked away.

"Good one, Hermione…" Harry grinned.

The next day.

Harry and Ron went to common room to finish their homework when class ended. Hermione, who had finished her homework since it given, walked alone in the hallway.

5 p.m.

Hermione walked as she hugging her thick books. She looked downward as her feet brought her to the library.

Because the hallway was empty, she walked so slowly and a half sleepy which made her unaware what happened next.

She bumped into someone that made her, that people and her books fell down onto the stone floor.

She lied on a hand that looked like protecting her from made contact with the hard ground. That people stood up when Hermione trying to sat up.

"Hey, watch your step." That people said and helping Hermione gathered her books.

"I'm—so sorry…"

Hermione grabbed the last book as that people did the same thing and their fingers touched. She looked up from those pale fingers until the owner and so did that people.

Hermione gasped. Malfoy stared back and look startled. They released their grip on the book that made it fell again.

"S-sorry… I'm sorry…" she stammered.

Malfoy lifted an eyebrow. 'Granger actually said sorry to me? That's weird…'

Hermione felt the same. She covered her mouth when she just said that.

'Why did I say sorry to him?'

Malfoy knelt to grab the book and stared at her again. Her expression made him want to laugh. She blushed and looked at the other direction; her hand still covered her mouth.

He gave her book to her. But when she was about to grab that, he lifted his hand as high as he could.

Hermione glared to him. She controlled her expression again.

"Give it back to me! Or I'll…" She warned.

"Are you blushing, Granger?" He tested her. She still glared but she blushed again.

"No, I'm not! Give it back!" She almost yelled and tried to reach the book.

"Oh, you are…"

"I'm not!"

"Are too…"

"Are not!"

"Are too…"

"Malfoy!"

"What?" He sneered.

"I'm warning you… Give it back!"

"Are you blushing, or not?"

Hermione grumbled. She needed that book to finish her Ancient Rune essay. And now he wasted her precious time.

"I'm asking you…"

"Okay! I am! Happy?"

Malfoy lifted his eyebrow again to express his surprise-ness.

"Why?"

"Because I'm sleepy! Give it back!"

Malfoy chuckled. "That was weird. Since when sleepy make the face blushing?"

Hermione wanted to slap her forehead at her stupid answer.

"That was my habit since I was little." She lied.

"All right… habit, huh?" He smirked. Oh, how she wanted to slap his face!

Hermione tiptoed and finally reached her book.

"You are so annoying!" she grumbled and walked away.

Malfoy finally laughed out loud. Hermione turned back and made a move with her wand. An invisible hand as if slapped Malfoy's face. Then she laughed at his expression and walked away.

Malfoy touched his face and grumbled. "Is that what I got after helping you, Granger? What a mud--"

Hermione, who already stepped away from him, grinned. "Oh, thank you!" then leave.

He just chuckled and muttering, "Never mind…"
