Secrets
Break Us Apart / Pansy Please Shut Up
When she went
into the library for study period fourty-five minutes later, Hermione looked
very
much like
a cat that had been dropped down a well. It wasn't until she heard Pansy
Parkinson's
annoyingly
shrill voice that Hermione remembered that Gryffindor had a study period
with Slytherin.
Just wun-der-ful.
"Oooo, she's been swimming in her robes. Sure you can afford to ruin those robes Muggle?"
Hermione ignored Pansy. The girl had the intelligence of a flobberworm. To hell with her.
Hermione went
over to sit with Ron. Harry was obviously at extra Quidditch practice,
as he was
nowhere to
be seen.
"So, becoming
friends with Malfoy are we?" Ron said in a flat, emotionless voice without
looking
up. After
a few moments of an awkward silence, he looked up to find Hermione standing
over him,
mouth open.
"Wh-what?" She spluttered. Ron shrugged and walked out of the library just as Draco walked in.
"Fancy seeing
you here Mudblood." He said quietly. After making a few darting glances
to check
no-one was
watching, he handed her back her book. Draco left the table as quickly
as he had
come, before
she could say anything. Hermioned opened the book and a folded note fell
out. She
bent down
to pick it up. As she read, her eyes grew wide in disbelief.
"Hermione, what's wrong" Hermione gasped and turned around.
"Nothing Harry,
nothing at all." Her hand tightly gripping the note, Hermione sat down
with Harry
and worked
silently until dinner. Nothing, however, could get her mind off the note,
which she had
slipped in
between her notes for Care of Magical Creatures.
