One day Hermione was walking through the Forbidden Forest. She was almost back to Hogwarts when somebody fell out of a tree and landed on her. This somebody got up, dusted himself off and helped Hermione up. He was incredibly handsome, with bright blue eyes and sandy-blonde hair. He then said, "Sorry about that. I was sitting in my room and the next thing I know, I am in that tree. By the way, my name's Anakin."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Anakin. I'm Hermione Granger. I think we'd better get back to the castle; it's starting to get dark," Hermione briskly responded. Then she took Anakin by the hand and led him out of the forest and all the way up to the Gryffindor common room.
By the time they got there dinner was over. Being the good friends they are, Harry and Ron brought enough food for five or six people, knowing how much Hermione eats after she has been walking all afternoon. "Here you are Her-oink-y, I mean Hermione. You missed the Headless Hunt's puppet show. It was hilarious!" Ron said after giving Hermione the food. "Who's that?"
"That, Ron, is Anakin. He fell out of a tree and landed on top of me. Anakin, this is Harry and Ron." Hermione said, sounding harsher than she meant to.
"Excuse me, but where am I going to sleep tonight?" Anakin sheepishly asked. At this, both Ron and Harry jumped, apparently not realizing that Anakin could talk.
"I guess you could sleep down here in one of the armchairs. I have an extra blanket," Harry offered.
It's settled then: Anakin will sleep down here, and we'll go talk to Professor Dumbledore tomorrow after breakfast," Hermione declared, sounding very business-like.
Anakin woke up the next morning to a bunch of giggling girls sitting in a circle staring at him.
"When did you get here?" asked an extremely excited Lavender Brown. At that exact moment, Hermione walked down the stairs. She shooed everyone away before Anakin could delve into the long story, which included the fact that Hermione had been in the Forbidden Forest.
"I'm going to breakfast. Would you like anything?" Hermione asked sweetly.
"Some toast will be fine," Anakin yawned.
"I will be back in about forty-five minutes. There are some books on the table over there if you'd like something to do," Hermione replied, sounding almost motherly.
When Hermione came back from breakfast, she found Anakin asleep, almost as if he had never been awake. As she woke him up she mumbled to herself, "Why am I not surprised? Boys are almost always more interested in sleeping than reading."
"Were you saying something, Hermione?" Anakin inquired groggily.
"I was just wondering if people read very often where you come from." Hermione quickly lied.
I don't know about everyone else, but I especially like to read stories about people that ride dragons," answered Anakin, feeling more awake now.
"There are dragons here, but they're very ferocious," Hermione replied. "Dumbledore is waiting in his office. He said that we should come as soon as possible."
"I'm read when you are," Anakin said.
Anakin was wondering how enormous the castle really was, they had been walking for almost fifteen minutes, when Hermione stopped in front of a seemingly random gargoyle statue. "Fizzing Wizzbees," Hermione confidently stated. Not expecting anything, Anakin jumped back and pulled his lightsaber out before realizing the gargoyle was not attacking. Anakin put his lightsaber away and smiled, obviously embarrassed. Hermione just rolled her eyes and started up the stairs, smiling to herself.
