In The Shadows
Disclaimer: This does not belong to me! None of it does! Well the idea does...
This is a H/S , but there will be G/H and R/L. And could someone please tell me what WIKTT is!!! And (i'm new at this, can you tell?) could someone tell me how to make things italics.
~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione stepped out of the Transfiguration classroom with a smile on her face. Professor McGonagall had been unusually generous with points today. However, she was now left alone as Harry had sped away to the Quidditch pitch to practice and Ron had run off with Lavender.
They're probably snogging right now, Hermione thought. Probably doing a lot more than just snogging.
Hermione wished that she had a boyfriend. Sure, Ron and Harry were great friends, but she wished for a more intimate relationship. All the other Gryffindor girls had boys flocking around them. Although she considered these girls to be somewhat vain and shallow, she sometimes wished she were more like them. Hermione sighed as she made her way to the Great Hall for dinner. She decided that no guy at this school could understand her love for learning or appreciate her intelligence.
~~~~~~~~~~
The following morning, Hermione stepped into the Common Room to meet Harry and Ron so they could walk to breakfast together as they always did.
"Wow!" Harry exclaimed when he saw her. "Hermione, you look terrific!" Hermione had used a good bit of Sleekeasy's Hair Potion and a bit of make- up while getting dressed...something she rarely did.
"You don't think it's a bit much, Harry?" she questioned nervously. She only did it because she wanted boys to notice her, but she did not want the effect to be overwhelming.
"No way, it looks great!" He responded truthfully as he and Hermione exited the Common Room through the portrait hole together.
"Where's Ron?" Hermione asked, just now realizing that the smiling redhead was missing.
"Off somewhere with Lavender," Harry informed her, "Where else?"
~~~~~~~~~~
In the middle of breakfast, owls came flooding into the room to deliver the post. Hermione was surprised to find a note with a bundle of beautiful flowers attached fall into her lap.
"Why, what's this?" She wondered aloud. Harry turned and looked, equally curious. Looking over her shoulder, he read the hand written note just loud enough for both of them to hear.
"Beautiful Hermione,
I love you with all my heart. It is truly Merlin's gift that I am allowed to view such a magnificent creature. I can only promise this: I love you and you will love me. Meet me in the astronomy tower tonight.
--A secret admirer"
The small bundle of flowers were forget-me-nots: Hermione's favorite flower. Hermione smiled and wondered who might this letter possibly be from.
"Are you going to visit your secret admirer?" Harry questioned, interrupting her thoughts.
"Oh, well I don't know...perhaps," she looked at the letter again, "Well, maybe not. I mean, I don't know who this is..."
"I think it's better that you don't," Harry agreed. "I don't think it would be safe." For some reason, Harry had a bad feeling about the proposed rendezvous, but he couldn't say exactly why.
If someone wishes to meet me, then he can come to me in person, Hermione thought, rather than make me go out of my way to meet him.
~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione trudged back up to Gryffindor Tower.
"Fiddlesticks" said Hermione and the portrait of the fat woman in the pink silk dress promptly swung open on its hinges. She could see Ron and Lavender sprawled out on the couch near the rear of the common room, kissing heatedly. Not wanting to interrupt the preoccupied couple, Hermione made her way into her room.
Yes, finally, not a dorm, but Hermione had her own room. Now that Hermione was the Head Girl, she had her own room with and adjoining bathroom. The room was small and tastefully decorated in the Gryffindor colors of scarlet and gold. After putting the small flowers into a vase, she flopped onto the cozy four-poster bed and reread her note.
Who in all of Merlin's magic thinks of me this way? Why will he not just talk to me?? And what is with this you will love me stuff...yeah right!
Her eyes wandered over to the cloak and she bounded out of the bed. Her first class on Friday was Double Potions with Slytherins and there was not way she wanted to be late for Snape's class. She threw warmer robes over her clothes, gathered her books and headed for the dungeons.
~~~~~~~~~~
Since it was a Friday, Hermione had only two classes and she would be content to spend the remainder of the day in the comfort of the Hogwarts vast library. Unfortunately, while there, she ran into Snape, quite literally. She had been carrying such and enormous stack of books that she had not seen him.
"Five points form Gryffindor, Miss Granger," Snape growled at her, "and do try to be more careful in the future."
"Yes, Professor Snape. I'm very sorry, sir," Hermione apologized; she was glad that he had not taken away more points. She picked up the fallen books and continued to return them to the proper shelves.
~~~~~~~~~~
That evening found Hermione on a blanket by the lake reading a thick book underneath a tree. She was glad to get away from everyone and relax in the cool night air.
After reading for quite some time, Hermione looked up and was shocked to see how dark it had become. She estimated that it was nearly ten o'clock. The younger girl looked up and saw a hooded figure approaching her. She gathered her things as she prepared herself for a voice to say, "Twenty points from Gryffindor, for being out after curfew." She knew she shouldn't have been outside after dark.
As the hooded figure closed the distance between them, she became aware that it was not a teacher coming. Who then, could it be? Hermione wondered.
The figure took out his wand and pointed it at Hermione.
"What are y--" she began, but her voice became nonexistent. She tried desperately to scream, but no sound came out.
The man muttered something else and she found that her hands were bound and she could not see. Hermione was beginning to seriously panic.
"I love you, beautiful Hermione, now and always." A man's voice whispered hoarsely into her ear, "You weren't in the tower, my darling. I must punish you."
Then he tore off her robes.
~~~~~~~~~~
The Hogwarts Potions Master wandered outside, prowling the grounds for any unsuspecting students (preferably Gryffindors). He saw a couple on the ground beneath a tree in what he assumed to be the mad throes of passion.
"What are you two doing outside, this time of night?" Professor Snape snarled as he approached the tree.
Suddenly, the larger figure looked in Snape's direction and vanished, leaving the smaller sprawled out in the grass. When Snape reached the crumpled form, he looked down to find a bound and blindfolded Gryffindor girl lying unconscious and naked.
