A/n: My very first horror DM/HG fanfic! Wow. I just got done watching Jeepers Creepers 2 and I was so pumped! Horror/Romance… I worked my ass off so much writing this. All of it's written in Hermione's POV… This is as light as it's getting…

Long summary: DM/HG Malfoy's bugging with Hermione's mind and she starts to think someone's actually stalking her. Malfoy's using phrases as, 'better watch that mouth, it just might get ripped out' and she's beginning to feel insane… Is there really a stalker or is Malfoy just getting her annoyed? Or is Malfoy only getting her prepared and helping her from the killer? My very first horror fic!

Prologue: The bat that escaped from hell

I am practically a walking encyclopaedia. I am one of the best friends of the famous Harry Potter, and an honour student at the best school in the world called Hogwarts. Ah, Hogwarts… I use no sarcasm when I say I deeply am immersed with the school. Many people may not know it, but I actually am quite different when I'm away from school at home… My parents constantly bicker with another and I have to scream into my pillow just to tune them out. I hate them, and because of my heritage, almost every Slytherin and pureblood known to wizards calls me a mudblood… I hate it.

I have failed my life mission. I have no reason to live, which is why I am writing this. I learned my fate in my sixth year at Hogwarts when I was in Potions with Malfoy. It all began like this:

I was dressed in my normal outfit, my Prefect badge on securely as I walked to Professor Snape's room slowly. I had my hair in a braid since I had finally tamed it after six hours staying up at night. Harry and Ron were already in the classroom since I had slept late. It was a normal day, or so I thought.

"Yo, Granger!" I turned around and came face-to-face with Malfoy.

"What do you want?" I snapped, glaring at him.

"Just to let you know you're going to be late," said Malfoy before he ran past me to Snape's room, right before the bell rang.

Ooh, that little… I thought as I started to sprint towards Snape's door and opened it after Malfoy had entered.

"50 points from Gryffindor for being late and an detention with Mr, Malfoy, Ms. Granger." Snape's voice rang behind me.

Ooh dearie, you're in a shit load of trouble now… Came a voice in the back of my head. "Damn Malfoy." That was all I muttered and looked around the room. Every one had a partner but Malfoy and he was currently flirting with Pansy Parkinson. Shuddering, I walked over to Harry and Ron and hit them hard on their heads with my schoolbooks.

"You. Guys. Should. Have. Not. Gotten. Partners. And. Should. Have. Waited. For. Me." I said through gritted teeth, ignoring the shocked looks on their faces.

"We were so worried about you, Hermione!" said Ron quickly. Too quickly. Ron, you've got a lot to learn if you think you're going to get away lying to me… I thought as I headed towards the student's cupboard. I pulled out a bag of ice and stalked over to Ron and Harry. Harry saw me and I put a finger to my lips and pulled Ron's collar and dropped the bag of ice and stalked away, smirking a smirk that could rival to Malfoy's.

"What the bloody hell!" I heard Ron yell as I sat with Lavender and Paravati and chattered away with them.

"I sneaked and stuffed it down his shirt! That'll teach him from lying to me." I said to them, while the girls both stared at another.

"Hermione, we've concluded you must have been possessed by Malfoy, because you never do anything but study." Lavender said in harmony with Paravati.

"Speaking of Mr. Malfoy," Snape's voice irked behind us and I jumped. "He seems not to have a partner and certainly cannot do without one. Mind Granger if you be his partner?"

I shuddered and thought, as if I want to work with a eunuch- no wait girls wouldn't be swooning - and there went all my thoughts! What was with me today? I'm supposed to be able to think, Merlin sakes! "Can't the baste-" Everyone in the room looked at me like I'd grown two heads. "Whatever, I'll be his partner, Prof. Snape." I said with rather difficulty.

Malfoy stood up and walked over to two desks in a corner of the room and I slowly stood and scooped up my books before walking away from him. I could feel the silver-blonde Slytherin's eyes on me as I stared determinedly away from him. My braid was bouncing behind me before I felt it being tugged on. Someone whirled me around and I was face-to-face again with Malfoy.

"Sod off, Malfoy," I spat, wrenching my braid away from his pale fingers and glared daggers at him. Everyone was being oblivious of us and was working hard on whatever the potion was. Oh crap! What's the thing we're supposed to be working on? I'm not asking Malfoy and definitely not Snape- can't risk points being taken off again…

"You were heading the wrong way, mudblood. Also you better watch your mouth, it just might get ripped out." He circled around me before walking back to our desks. Scowling, I followed him. Why was my heart pounding? Damn Malfoy! He's got me scared stiff!

"What did he mean by ripped out…" I thought quietly. Like I said, you're in deep shit now. An inner voice answered me.

"Also, don't jump if you start hearing things…" Malfoy said to me. I watched his cloak move as he quickly walked to our desks.

"Talking to yourself Malfoy, it's a first sign of insanity…" I voiced.

"Then it's hearing things, yes I know. I was just saying since everyone knows you'll be hitting that stage soon…" He turned around and looked at my feet. I saw his eyes slowly work their way up and I stared determinedly away from him. Damn perverted bastard… "All mudbloods should know better. Might get their eyes poked out…"

I shuddered and when we finally reached my desk I sat down and suddenly noticed something in the back of the room. Who was that new student and why did it look like he had wings? I looked down on the floor before looking up again. I blinked hard and realized the student was looking straight at me. He has fucking red eyes! I thought and took a nervous breath and glanced over at Malfoy. He was working on the assignment and didn't notice anything.

"Holy shit. He does have wings." I whispered and Malfoy looked up.

"Now you're seeing things?" He drawled lazily and I suddenly felt the urge to hit him.

"That boy in the corner has wings." I looked over at him, but my eyes widened when I saw he was gone. "Maybe I am seeing things…"

"I was right, Granger. You are mad. By the way, I need you to help me on this question…" I tuned him out and looked at the parchment on my desk and then at the clock. Only one min-

BRRRRRINNG!!

There was a flurry of paper and the parchment was in Snape's hand. 0... I had made a… NO! I licked my lips and stood up. I felt someone's eyes following me, though I couldn't guess whom if I wanted. I stormed up to Snape and started ranting at him. "Please! I need back my paper badly! Or else I'll make a zero…oh…" I trailed off when Snape showed me my paper, which had everything finished on it. How…

I turned around and met Malfoy's gaze. His silver eyes were laughing coldly into mine and he picked up his parchment and stood. I narrowed my eyes at him and shrugged it off and started walking out the Potions classroom, Malfoy right behind me.

"I suppose you'll need someone to help out your paranormal hallucinations for you?" He called after me. I could hear the swish of his cloak and suddenly all the lights that were near or far from me were out.

I tensed and I heard footsteps. I backed into something and felt around. It felt hard… I reached into my robes for my wand and muttered, "Lumos…" I saw a pair of silver eyes and saw my hands were on the wall. Breathing deeply and nervously, my heart pounded and a felt a flutter in my stomach and I bit my lip and backed into the wall. "What happened…" I whispered almost inaudibly to myself.

"Answer the question quickly… Before it comes…" I heard Malfoy whisper. I saw his silver eyes boring into mine, a look of terror in them.

"Yes…" I breathed and I felt breath on my neck. I felt hands on my shoulders and then I was against someone's chest.

"Show yourself!" I heard Malfoy yell. I shivered and realized I was in Malfoy's arms, him holding my wand.

Nothing stirred and I felt his hands digging into my shoulders. I watched a form walk towards us and suddenly I clutched my right arm and fell right up against Malfoy, my feet immobile and my mind suddenly feeling numb.

There was a screech, and then I felt myself being scooped into Malfoy's arms and being carried to somewhere.

"What was that thing…" I whispered. Why had I suddenly gone immobile? Just where the hell was Malfoy taking me?

"It was a bat that escaped from hell." Malfoy said quietly. His voice was emotionless and when I looked up at him I saw his face was too. I felt a chill go down my spine and shivered. Someone was watching us, and now I know what I saw was right… I had seen a vampire, and it was out to get someone… But how'd it get in?

"Our school isn't as protected as we thought. That new student's hunting down all the talented wizards and is going to kill them because it thinks they are going to kill vampires… But on the contrary, it should be us that should be worrying… For situations like now…" Malfoy was saying quietly.

"I thought that was a good thing for followers of V-" I couldn't go on if I wanted to, I couldn't speak through the hand that was placed on my mouth.

"Don't say his name… That's what attracted it to you in the first place. That Headmaster of ours was a fool…" Malfoy whispered and I heard gasps around me. I tore my gaze off of my shoes and looked around. We were at the Great Hall and he was heading straight for the teachers and he still hadn't put me down.

"What the hell- ow!" I stopped in mid-sentence, suddenly feeling a cut on my cheek. I saw Malfoy glance down and his eyes widened.

"He's in the bloody Great Hall…" I couldn't believe how afraid his voice sounded as he talked to the Headmaster.

"There is no vampire here, Mr. Malfoy…" He said, waving a hand at him.

"Then why is Granger being tracked down?!" He yelled and his fingernails dug into my skin again. I gasped in pain and Malfoy seemed oblivious of it.

"I think you're just manipulating her, Mr. Malfoy. Now if you excuse us, me and the Headmaster have to talk about cauldrons." McGonagall snapped at him, totally ignoring me.

I looked around me and I couldn't see a thing no sense the Great Hall was pitch black. I felt Malfoy set me down on my feet and he grabbed my wrist and lead me to what I thought was the Slytherin table. He sat on a place on the bench and waited for me to sit, arrogance in his features. "Well?"

I glared at him and said plainly, "'Tis not lucky to trick a Gryffindor, Malfoy. Especially this one." Afterwards I sat beside him and slowly picked up my fork before I realized there was no food.

Malfoy glared at me. How I knew was because I glanced at him while watching the Headmaster give his speech.

"Everyone, there's a student here who is out to kill the strongest and the most powerful students of this school. It has come to my attention that Mr. Malfoy and Ms. Granger are those two students…"

I drew a nervous breath and looked down at my plate. "We're being hunted." Was all I whispered and I could feel his eyes on me. Those damn silver eyes… Damn him for saving me. What the-? Saving me? He's probably lying his arse off! But as I bit my bottom lip and glanced over at him, I saw his eyes were filled with terror as well. I looked at his hands and I saw him clenching his napkin. I could have sworn I saw sweat on his forehead. What the hell's going on…
