Hermione Granger famously punched Draco Malfoy in "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban," a cathartic moment that had built up over the previous two films after putting up with the villainous boy's shenanigans. Behind the scenes, however, Emma Watson had been fighting off something different regarding Tom Felton. 

In those early years, Watson had feelings for her co-star, which she admitted on "The Jonathan Ross Show" in 2012. "Between the ages of 10 and 12 I had a really terrible crush on Tom Felton. [Girls] love a bad guy and he was a few years older and he had a skateboard. And that just did it, really. ... He used to do tricks on it. He was so cool," she said. Speaking with Seventeen in 2018, she contended she had never felt it before. "He was my first crush," she said.

Did he reciprocate the feelings?  "Er, uh, um, no," he told Seventeen in the same interview. Watson told Seventeen that her childhood crush on him is but a funny story between them today. "He totally knows. We talked about it — we still laugh about it," Watson said. Felton agrees that it was just an innocent feeling. "We're talking a good decade ago ... And it was very flattering for a 12-year-old boy, but it's nice that we've become friends since then and we can kind of look back and have a laugh at it," he told E! News in 2011.
