Yeah guys this is a bum chapter not sure what its doing here but it is an update none the less!! yay!!
Again its so great seeing i have readers but a few more reviews would be sweet.
Hermione was glad she had ancient runes next. Only a handful of students had elected to take the class, none of which were in the dungeons with her the period before.
But after 20 minutes of whispers and giggles Hermione had realized you should never doubt the Hogwarts gossip line. Another 10 minutes passed as Hermione tried desperately not to pay attention to the ongoing stares and the persistent murmuring.
"Can I help you?" Hermione asked after being hit by a ball of parchment for the third time.
"Is it true?" They squeaked.
"Is what true?"
"Are you really carrying Draco's child?"
"Excuse me?"
"Are you pregnant?"
"What no, where did you hear that?"
"Well Pavarti told Kate"- Naturally, it would be pretty close between Pavarti and Lavender for biggest school gossip-"Then Kate told Jess and Jules then they told Rhonda, she told Francesca then she told Nat who told Angie who, then, told us" They said, pretty happy with them selves.
Who are half these people anyway? And what right did they have making up stupid, ridiculous rumors?
"Well ladies, you can tell all your little friends, that Hermione said it wasn't true?" She snapped, turning back to her paper work.
It wasn't long until the bell went for lunch and every one rushed in various directions for the break.
Hermione almost bumped into Snape as she joined the rush to get out of the fifth floor corridor.
"Oh sorry professor didn't see you there" Hermione apologized.
"Miss Granger are you aware that in your seventh year classes go for sixty minutes?" He asked, ignoring her previous apology.
"Yes Professor"
"So, why then must you bother me by walking out of my class nine minutes early?"
"Oh I can expla-"
"Please do" He cut her off with mock interest.
Hermione had nothing to say to her teachers out of character sarcasm.
"Well since you can't actually explain, as you assured me you would, you will serve detention tonight at seven, do not be late! Carry on Miss Granger" He ordered.
Hermione nodded as Snape stalked off to, no doubt, go ruin some other poor kids life. By now the staircase traffic had thinned out and the arrangements of the stairs began to change.
Only a few students had remained on the stairs as it switched directions, Hermione, who had no real destination, stood and waited for the case to take her on a new route. She smiled to herself as she saw a few first years cling to the sides as it slowly rotated and raced off as soon as they got a chance.
Hermione didn't really need to go to the hospital wing; which is where the stairs had taken her so she blindly turned around to head back up to the Gryffindor common room.
"Oomph"
"Oh my goodness I'm terribly sorry" Hermione said picking herself and her books off the ground and looking up for the first time to see she had ran in to none other then Malfoy.
"Hey, watch it Granger. Wouldn't want to harm my unborn son" He laughed.
"Huh?" she asked puzzled.
"Oh haven't you heard? Apparently you carrying my child" He smirked, placing a hand on her stomach 'to feel the baby kick'.
"Stay away from me el'weirdo " Hermione said walking off, back down the marble stairs.
"Weren't you headed to the hospital wing?" he asked following her down a few stairs.
"No, not particularly. I just-"
"Enjoy the ride?" he finished.
"I know what you're implying!" She yelled back as she ascended another stair case.
"Hey Granger wait, you dropped yo-"
"Not listening" She said and then walked out of earshot.
Hermione had heard so many ridiculous things about her and Draco by the end of sixth period that she was beginning to think maybe they were true. But she knew she was foolish to believe anything especially when they were so absurd. As if it wasn't enough to be accused of that, she still had her detention with Snape tonight to think of and had spent the rest of the day avoiding Ron; she didn't know what she could possibly say to him.
Seven o'clock came around to quickly for Hermione's liking. What was she supposed to tell Snape when he asked her for the second time why she had bailed on class
'well me and your self absorbed, snob of a godson ended up on top of each other on the floor, Not quite sure how it got to the point actually. And then something to do with Pansy, an insult and a groin wound that with hopefully never allow said godson to reproduce is what made me leave'
Yeah I'm sure he would love to hear that, I could pull the old 'lady problems' excuse but the thought of discussing her lady problems which a teacher wasn't a nice one, but the thought of discussing it with Snape was a whole other level of un-nice.
So, unprepared and uncertain Hermione walked to the dungeons dreading what could come of this evening.
Tell me what u's think!
