2. Clock


Tick. Tock. Tick Tock.

Harry was literally sleeping on his bench. His head was resting quite uncomfortably on his right arm and therefore the ticking noise; his wrist watch.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Firstly, he couldn't remember where he was. His first thought was that maybe he had fallen asleep in the library whilst trying to study, but then he heard the voice of Professor Binns and immediately wished he hadn't woken up.
He sighed.
There was only one student in the classroom that wasn't half asleep, and that was of course Hermione. She was ambitiously taking notes and scribbling eagerly with her feather pen. The lonely sound of ink being written on parch could be heard in the silence that arose when professor Binns paused to clear his throat. Harry had never quite understood how Hermione could resist the sleeping hex that was the professor's voice.

Next to him, Ron was sprawled across his bench, snoring quite loudly, to Hermione's clear annoyance. Harry gave out a low chuckle as Ron snored extra loudly. No one seemed to notice though, since most of the class was half asleep, least of all the professor himself whose monotone voice never seemed to stop.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

He eyed his watch. Another hour left. Maybe he should start taking notes, that way the tests would be much easier later on, he knew that.
If Hermione didn't…? Let him copy her notes? By the killing looks she was currently giving him, it didn't seem like that.

I'll start taking notes next lesson, Harry thought to himself as he could feel his head getting heavy. He leant against his bench, not even trying to listen to the professor. All that Harry could hear for the rest of the lesson was his own wrist watch.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
