If Hermione had just stayed true to herself; listened to the part of her that said what they were doing felt wrong and like it could only end in hurt, and pushed Draco away instead of kissing him back, then it wouldn’t have gone so horribly, terribly wrong. Maybe she would be sitting here talking with Draco instead of Ginny. But she had let Draco make her into someone she wasn’t, someone who honestly, had frightened her. The memory of how she had acted with Draco earlier repelled Hermione, and she couldn’t help hating him for doing that to her.
