„So you really want to candidate for the headgirl?", Ron asked Hermione while eating some chocolate he bought from the trolley.

„Yes, it's a good opportunity for me to learn to be more responsible", she replied, looking up from her book.

„I guess it will suit you. And there is no doubt that you won't get the headgirl. You are the brightest witch of your age and our top student", Harry interfered into the conversation.

„Well, there's Malfoy", said Ron.

„He won't candidate for the role as a headboy. He never did. Besides, he's not even responsible enough to do that huge job", Hermione said.

„Well, maybe he also changed his mind like you did? I mean, you never candidated for it before as well. Plus, I guess he's pretty responsible and just doesn't show it", Ron looked at Hermione seriously.

„Are you on that ferrets side or mine?", Hermione said a little bit furiously.

„Don't take it wrong Mione. I was just stating my opinion", he replied and lied back to analyze the wrapper of a candy.

„No one asked for it tho", Hermione snapped back.

„Hermione, chill. He didn't mean it wrong. I guess you are pretty edgy right now. Did Sarah annoy you again?", Harry asked and put his hand on hers.

Hermione sighed.
„Sorry Ron", she said and then looked to Harry and her Hands, „Actually everyone annoyed me. Holidays were horrible since Meredith let me do all the tasks while Sarah was allowed to do nothing."

Meredith was Hermiones stepmother since Hermiones real mother got murdered by Bellatrix when she was younger. Her dad married Meredith two years later, who had a daughter in Hermiones age. Since then all they did was annoy Hermione whenever and wherever they could.

„Never mind, you already told me remember?", he said and smiled.

Hermione felt slightly bad for being rude to her own boyfriend. She smiled when she remembered how Ron finally asked her out three weeks before holidays started. She never had been more happier about it. The whole holidays long Hermione exchanged letters with Ron, whom she told every little detail about her day. And he never failed to brighten up her face after an exhausting day with her Mom and Stepsister.

Harry, who was feeling that he was soon going to be a third wheel again changed the topic and then they all started to gossip about some students of Hogwarts.

~~~

„This is a joke right?!", Blaise said surprisingly.

„No, I'm totally serious about it", Draco replied.

„You? As the headboy of Hogwarts. I can't imagine that", Pansy said while putting her hair into a ponytail.

„I don't care what you guys think. My dad told me so, so I have no other choice", Draco replied.

„Oh, so it's your dads decision. Not yours", Goyle slowly said.

„Who else? I'm not even interested in it. But he wants to brag about the fact that his son is the chosen one for the headboy of Hogwarts", Draco said in an annoyed tone.

„Well, the chosen one is still Potter", Crabbe interfered and got a look of Draco that made him look away.

„Don't even mention Potters Name. I hope he choked to death in the Holidays", Draco said disgusted.

„Negative. Me and Blaise saw him with Weasle and Granger today", Pansy said.

„But can we just mention that Granger had a Glow Up of it's finest? She looked attractive", Blaise said.

„I have to agree there. She really did", Goyle said.

„Are you guys insane? How can you think that Mudblood is attractive?", Draco said indignantly.

„We are stating facts. Chill", Blaise, who was the most bravest one of them to talk back to Draco.

Draco rolled his eyes and looked outside the windows. Draco hated Granger with every cell of him. She already started to annoy him at the beginning of their first year. Just by her way to appear. The way she protected Potter and brought him down by insulting him.

She always showed her know-it-all side and never stopped bragging about being better than him.

She never said it directly. But Draco knew that she wanted to make him jealous. She always judged him as an asshole. But she knew nothing about him. Nothing about his family issues. How would she know how it felt to be pressured by his Dad? She had a wonderful family to who she went happily every Holidays.

While Draco would rather stay in Hogwarts with a troll than going to Malfoy Manor.

Draco shook his head. She wasn't worth his thoughts. He would show her that he was the better one today....

They finally arrived in Hogwarts and all of his friends left the train. Draco was the only one who stayed back a bit longer. When he was finally ready to go he stood up and took his suitcase to leave.

Suddenly he heard someone laughing and when he turned around his eyes accidentally met Granger's eyes. They both looked in each others eyes filled with hate, before they looked away. Draco looked straight forward and left the train without looking back once more.

~~~

Hermione could feel the excitement in her stomach. Finally her dream was becoming true. She would be Hogwarts new Headgirl. She had no worries because she knew there was no one, who could compete against her. Although this may sounded arrogant.

After they did the usual stuff they entered the great Hall and the Ceremony for the new kids started. Hermione remembered how happy she was to be sorted into Gryffindor. And she was still grateful for the hat to have put her into that house. Otherwise she would have never met Harry and the love of her life Ron.

She looked at Ron, who was smiling over his whole face while clapping for every new Gryffindor member. The real reason for his happiness was actually the food, which they would get later. It was his highlight of every year.

Then finally Dumbledore walked to his speaking platform and Hermione immediately knew what would come now. The headboy and headgirl decision. Before they entered the great Hall Hermione wrote her name on the magic blackboard for being the headgirl. But she wasn't able to see who else would candidate this year.

„And now we will vote for the headgirl and headboy of this year! I will explain the rules for the newcomers. The headgirl and headboy are the ones who you can always go to talk about any problems. They will be there for you. You can also suggest them things you would like them to change in Hogwarts. They will then give me the informations.

Every single one of you will vote for one headgirl and one headboy separately. In some seconds a paper will appear in front of you and a pencil. You will then vote for your headgirl by crossing the box beside their names. When everyone is finished with that, the papers will disappear and another one will appear which is for the headboy.

When that is done as well we teachers will look at the results and talk about if the students are responsible enough or not. Then we will announce the new headgirl and headboy, who will then move into the westtower.

The newcomers probably don't even know about the persons, whose names are written on the paper, that's why we put a picture and three things, which describe them of every student in there too. So you at least know how they look and kinda are. Now let's start the voting!"

Hermione felt the tension in the room and how some of the newcomers looked at the paper appearings with admiration. She was sure that they were muggles who had never seen magic before. Just like her before she got her Hogwarts Letter.

Hermione took the pencil before she crossed the box beside her own name. She looked at her picture, which was moving. She liked the way her hair flew when she moved around and smiled. The three words describing her were: Gryffindors Princess, brightest witch of her Age, a part of the Golden Trio

Hermione didn't really like that description. But she couldn't change it now. Then suddenly the papers disappeared and the headboy papers appeared. Hermione flew over the names for a bit before she stopped at one name. Her eyes got big and she immediately looked to the Slytherin table.

She looked back to her paper.
Draco Malfoy: Slytherins Prince, ambitious, intelligent

She couldn't deny that his description sounded better than hers. But that wasn't even the point here. Why did he candidate?!

She felt the looks of Harry and Ron, who also saw the name by now. Hermione took her pencil before she voted for another boy. She didn't notice that she was the last one to vote. Because as soon as she crossed the box all the papers disappeared.

It got noisy and she could hear her name and Malfoys being said by mostly everyone. She tried to relax a bit and tried not to freak out. How was this possible? Both wanted to candidate in the same year? Did he maybe hear their conversation in their train?

No, this was rubbish. It wasn't possible. She glared to Snape and the other teachers, who were talking. The waiting was pure torture. She just wanted the results to be announced and hopefully she wouldn't be with Malfoy.

Then Dumbledore finally went to his platform again. He clapped and everyone got silent and gave him their whole attention.

„I want to make this short, so the headgirl of this year is Hermione Granger!", he said in a loud voice.

Everyone started clapping and congratulated her. But she couldn't enjoy it right now. Her heart was beating fast and she was praying that he wouldn't be the headboy.

„Miss Granger, please step forward", he said and she stood up.

She put a smile on and stepped forward right next to Dumbledore. Professor Mcgonagall came to her and gave Hermione her new school uniform with which everyone would recognize her as the headgirl. The last touch of the uniform was a little golden brooch.

Hermione took the folded clothes and was finally able to be proud at herself for a moment. The next moment Dumbledores loud voice talked again.

„The headboy of this year will be Draco Malfoy!"

Everyone started clapping and Hermione could see everyone smiling and being happy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally the first chapter is finished! Before we start this all I want to make some things clear:

1. Yes, I know the rules in Hogwarts are actually different about the Headgirl and Headboy. In Hogwarts you are able to be the Headgirl/Headboy from Year 6. in my FanFiction they were able from Year 3.
2. I don't know when I will update the next time, but I beg you guys to don't comment „when is the next part coming?" too often because it gets annoying after a while.
3. This is my first story written in english so don't judge me, and yeah there are may still some grammar mistakes left but I want you guys to don't remind me. Until you guys understand what I mean, it's fine.
4. I thank Babushka_80 who went through the whole chapter and corrected many of my grammar mistakes lol.

Enjoy the story!!
Love
