Hermione's POV
I looked out of the frosted window, the grounds castle grounds glistening with a sheet of pure white snow and ice. I pulled the blanket closer to me – the icy cold wind, blowing through the gap in the window. I glanced at the large clock – Ten past nine. My legs carried me, down the stairs and into the common room.
"Hey Hermione" Harry shouted, ensconced with his game of Wizards chess against Ron.
"Have you not finished yet?" I asked "It has been at least 4 hours".
"Well" Ron muttered "What else is there to do?"
I sighed as I collapsed into the chair by the fire with a book.
"Yes! I win! I win" Ron screeched, as he galloped around the room.
"Actually, you haven't. Check. Mate." Harry said tiredly.
"Cheater."
"I didn't cheat!
"Yes you did!"
"No I didn't!"
I stood up "For goodness sake… Can you two please grow up! How old are you? Twelve? We have got the future of Hogwarts and the wizard world in our hands, yet all you two think about is wizards chess, Quidditch and girls!"
Harry and Ron looked at each other, smirked and said in unison,
"We are boys, Hermione."
I turned around and began to ascend the staircase
"Never!" I shouted down to them, I would have to tell them tomorrow about my news.
