Chapter 4
Hermione glanced around her to make sure none of the sixth year boys were around and slipped up the stairs and into their room.
She pulled out various items of clothing before extracting Harry's Invisibility Cloak. Hermione then looked around and saw the Marauders Map on the side of Harry's bed and grabbed it too before exiting the dorm.
Hermione made her way to the Room of Requirement to take a closer look at what Malfoy had been trying to use.
Once on the seventh floor corridor, Hermione closed her eyes.
I need to find the place that Malfoy goes.
No luck. Damn. Hermione knew that this hadn't worked for Harry but she had hoped it would work this time around.
I need to see where Malfoy spends his time.
Still, the room didn't respond to her wishes. This room was supposed to give you what you want, not ignore you like your supposed best friends do on a night when there was no homework!
I need to go to the room that hides everything.
This time, a door materialised in front of her. It was the same oak door that her and Malfoy had gone through the other day.
Screwing her courage to the sticking place, she hoped that she would not fail. Just like the play said. (A/N For those of you who don't know, Lady Macbeth from the Shakespeare play, Macbeth, says that if you screw your courage to the sticking place then you shall not fail.)
Hermione stepped through the door and was met with the familiar sight of the crowded room.
Malfoy was sat not far from her and gazing at a mirror. The mirror of Erised. Said to show your deepest heart's desire.
Hermione sighed and covered herself with the Invisibility Cloak before walking slowly towards where Malfoy was sitting and gazing into the Mirror as well.
Hermione saw herself standing just as she was, with Malfoy sitting in front of her and just smiling. Nothing more, smiling.
Hermione wanted to be happy. More than anything in the world, more than defeating Voldemort, finding the love of her life, living through the war, she wanted the remainder of her life to have a happy ending.
Malfoy then sighed.
He'd been sat there for what felt like eternity, just gazing at the person in the mirror. He'd seen the door open and Granger walk in.
He's seen her put on an Invisibility Cloak but she hadn't disappeared. When Draco looked into the reflecting, he was just sitting there smiling, with her standing behind him and smiling.
He wanted more than anything than to be happy. More than anything, more than succeeding, more than his parents living, heck even more than himself living. He just wanted to be able to live until he was happy with something in his life.
Draco then got up and went over to the Vanishing Cabinet, forgetting that there was still another occupant in the room. He muttered the incantation and opened the door.
Several things happened at once, Draco whooped because the apple was there and whole, the door opened and somebody was sent flying into the wall opposite the Room and the mirror of Erised collapsed on top of him.
When the mirror fell, Draco and Hermione both felt themselves being pushed into the Cabinet and whisked away to some unknown place.
Draco, wondering if he would survive since he knew the Cabinet wasn't working properly yet and Hermione, wondering who had been sent flying backwards when they opened the door.
