CHAPTER 2
Hermione was hugging all her friends goodbye
" Goodluck Hermione , take care " Harry said hugging her.
" Thanks i need it " she said smiling.
"Bye 'Mione " Ron said a little red & giving her a tight hug
"Bye Ron " she hugged him tightly.
"Hermione ! bye ! i'll miss you ! " Ginny said dramatically.
Hermione laughed at her " oh Ginny ! i'll miss you more ! " she said giving her a nice tight hug .
Then they were gone.
Hermione couldn't , wouldn't , believe the situation , but she decided to let it go & work on something to do in those days.
she took a deep breath & headed to the great hall
Draco was already on the slytherin table having lunch , Hermione headed to her table lonely & getting prepared to be watched.
she sat down & stared at the food , she felt too lonely to eat , she tried remembering how Ron ate to try & make herself laugh but she ended up with a lost appetite & she missed her friends even more.
she shot a quick glance across the room to the boy with gorgeous blond hair.
he was also staring at his food & not eating a bite , he moved his head to look at her she quickly looked at her food , but he caught her looking at him.
she got so embarrassed she was sure her cheeks went red .
then she decided to go to the library to work on those spells she wanted to learn.
she loved reading , it made her complete , specially that the library was empty , THAT was true heaven .
she wasn't into novels , she was more into biographies , spells books , anything magic related , anything but novels , she liked to understand mysteries and see what kind of spells don't work together & so on from that category.
Hermione chose Bathilda Bagshot's biography to read .
Hermione was deep into her book till she heard rapid footsteps , she bent the page & left the book to investigate what's happening. she went to the library door slowly & everytime she got nearer the footsteps were clearer , she got extremely close to the door & she was about to peak till the footsteps stopped & she heard an familiar voice.
" No , I Haven't yet " Draco Said.
" Well do Draco ! we don't have time , the dark lord is waiting & you know what happens when he runs out of patience ! "
Hermione heard another horrible , frantic voice which she recognized as , Bellatrix Lestrange's .
- Bellatrix ? - Hermione screamed inside her head .
Hermione felt terrified , its the first time she would be alone like this while Bella was somewhere near , she didn't know whether to fight or just sneak away , or stay or listen .
she turned around & decided to go into the library as if nothing happened , but how will she ignore something like that ? those were her enemies and they're probably plotting to kill Harry and maybe if she has any clue what they were trying to do she'd help save Harry !
that thought increased the urge to peak outside , .
And when she did , he was standing there right infront of her.
Hermione gasped in shock & automatically moved several steps back.
it took her a while to regain her breath.
" What the hell were you doing Granger ?" Draco demanded.
" What were YOU doing ? " Hermione said coldly.
Draco took steps towards her that she felt his breath on her face , she didn't move .
" we're not going to play this game granger , what did you hear ? " Draco demanded again.
" whats Bellatrix doing here ? " Hermione fired at him , she gave him a very good clue what she heard.
his eyes widened and he clutched her arm.
" Speak ! what did you hear ? " Draco shook her.
" okay fine ! " Hermione yelled quietly " let go of me! "
Draco let go of her arm & stood back & waited for the answer.
" All i heard was you saying you haven't & Bellatrix rushing you because the dark lord is waiting , thats it " Hermione said rubbing her arm.
A huge relief appeared on Draco's face but then it turned firm again.
" what are you plotting for Draco .." Hermione asked , not waiting for an answer ofcourse , he would never tell her.
Draco became angry and approached her with a finger pointed at her face.
" YOU have absolutely nothing to do with this mudblood , you're lucky you're alive "
he turned to leave and was almost out of the library.
" i can ALWAYS tell on you " Hermione said quickly with a triumphed smile.
Draco froze , his hand went to his wand , Hermione quickly got hers out so she was ready when Draco turned around.
he turned around to face her but she already was ready with her wand directed to his face as well as his wand.
" if you knew whats good for you , you would never do that " Draco said.
" you'd still be in trouble , even if you killed me , i would've already told on you , so it makes no difference " she smiled.
" HAH" Draco Laughed " no it will make a difference to us pure bloods , the world will have suffered less one mudblood "
Hermione's arm lowered down & her smile faded.
that actually did hurt.
a tear ran down her cheek which made her feel horrible for crying infront of him, she wiped it away so quickly & headed back to her book to put it in its place .
she turned to the door and he was still standing there , but his arm lowered as well , and she went outside.
