Chapter 1: Weird Accidents

"I hate you Malfoy!"

It was a sunny afternoon at Hogwarts. Harry, Ron, and Hermione had just come out from their Herbology Class. Hermione was very flared up about something, and not to mention very covered up with green ooze, which was spilling out the pockets of her robe.

 "It'll stop Hermione don't worry too much! Why did that happen anyway?" Ron asked,

 " STOP?! When? At the end of the day?" said Hermione frantically, "Ooooh! That Malfoy sure will pay for this, I'm pretty sure he did that on purpose. What will I do? I need to attend my Arithmancy Class next, so I can't change my clothes, or else I'll be late," she added.

"Why don't you just counter it with a spell or something? It was just a potion," Harry suggested,

"I can't, that potion was meant only for soil, so when it got contact with my robe it reacted badly. A counter spell will only worsen the situation"

"Well, as you said, you don't have any choice, but to go on with the day having that misfortune. You'll have to wait for it to stop! Anyway, we better get going, or else we'll all be late," Ron said,

 " Fine! Grrr… I'll get you for this Malfoy!"

Hermione went straight to her Arithmancy class, she practically running up the stairs to get to her class on time, ignoring the slimy feeling of her robe. As she reached the top the stairs, she almost slipped, which made her books fly out of her grasp, so as quickly as possible, she bent down to get her books.

 "Granger! I never thought you loved dancing," it was Draco; he picked up of Hermione's books and waved it around. "Aren't you going to ask for my help?" Draco said grinning,

"Oh! How touching! I didn't know you cared" Hermione said sarcastically, as she grabbed the book Draco had picked up. "Well, don't bother, I can manage," she added bitterly.

She turned her back quickly at Draco and started to hasten up, and then suddenly she stepped on a large amount of ooze and slipped. She tightened her grip on her books, and closed her eyes waiting for the painful hit and Draco's cold laugh, but both of them didn't come. When she opened her eyes, she met Draco's and she noticed that he caught her fall.

'Huh? What the…?' She thought, she quickly stood up and just walked away.

Draco got shocked as well, 'Why did I do that? Impulse, I guess,' he thought.

As Hermione entered her class, her classmates burst out with laughter at the sight of the green ooze.

" It doesn't get any worse than this," she sighed.

The next morning, Hermione quickly stood up and checked out a pail, heaping full of green ooze, she saw that it had stopped filling, so she carefully pulled out her robe, and sent it to the washing room.

As she walked through the corridors she noticed that these were very empty and very silent, she checked her watch and saw that breakfast was already about to start. She ran as fast as she could to the Great Hall's doors when someone bumped into her. She fell to the floor with her things, but she quickly regained consciousness and gathered her stuff as quickly as possible, and stood up.

"Watch where you're going Herm… Granger! Don't be such a klutz! Look what you've done; you've made both of us late. I don't to be like you, you know? Hmph!" Draco said as he stood up.

Hermione wasn't able to say anything; she just stared at him as he went to the doors of the Great Hall,

'I swear he said my first name, but hesitated, I wonder why?' Hermione thought.

She regained her poise and entered, nobody believed Hermione got late for the first time, Hermione, however, ignored him or her and went straight to her seat.

"Where have you been Hermione? Do you realize that you're five minutes late?" Harry told her,

"I slept late last night, I asked Filch for a pail and tried to convince him that it wasn't my fault why the floor was all covered up with goo. He sure is hard to talk to," Hermione explained.

 "Oh! That's why you left your books and your wand on the common room table," Ron said suspiciously,

"I did? Uuhh… Well, the pail was quite heavy and I couldn't carry all of them at the same time," Hermione cleared up,

 "O--kay, whatever you say," Ron replied with disbelief.

After saying what she had said, Hermione wondered when and why she left her things, when the pail wasn't really that heavy at all.

Hermione's day ended wonderfully. She went to the library to return the books she borrowed. As she entered the library, the topmost book fell, she couldn't reach it with all the books she was carrying, she also couldn't levitate it because her wand was snugly kept in pocket. Suddenly, someone reached done for it and just put it on top of the stack of books she was carrying. Hermione couldn't believe her eyes as the kind helper disappeared out of the darkness outside.

'Did you even see who I was? What are you up to Malfoy?' Hermione thought…..
