Chapter 10
Hermione had left a little over an hour ago, for Bellatrix it seemed like month's had passed. Bellatrix decided to try and send Hermione a text, Hermione had saved her number in the phone and showed Bellatrix how to text. Bellatrix, after pressing a few buttons, managed to work out how to send one. "I miss you already beautiful." Bellatrix placed the device down on the bed, she crawled under the covers and drifted off to sleep, thinking of Hermione and how much she felt for the young witch.
Hermione was in the library completing assignments set by Professor Snape who hadn't been seen all day. Hermione forgot all about the muggle device in her pocket, until it vibrated, causing Hermione to jump. Hermione looked around the room, seeing that she was all alone. She pulled out the phone and smiled. She could see that Bellatrix had worked out how to text her. Hermione's smile turned into a grin, she had to read Bellatrix's text a few times for it to sink in. Bella misses me already, I miss her so much. Hermione decided to reply to Bellatrix's message. "I miss you too Bella, I can't wait to see you. You make me so happy.
Hermione placed the phone inside her robes, she spent another hour trying to concentrate on her assignment. After failing to concentrate, she stood up and packed away her belongings, then headed back to the Grifindoor common room. Harry and Ron was sat with Ginny and Luna. "Hi Hermione." Luna said in her usual relaxed voice and large friendly smile. "There's a day out to Hogsmeade next week, do you want to come with us?" Ginny asked Hermione. "I would love to but I have extra lessons planned." Hermione hated lying to her friend's "Thank you for asking. I have a family wedding I have to go to, it's all been okay with Dumbledore." Harry and Ron looked at each other, both their faces showed their shock and worry. "Well, we will see you when you get back, you are coming back ?" "Yes Ron, I will be back just not sure how long i'm going to be away, that's all." Harry's scar began to hurt.
Bellatrix was woken by a strange noise, she sat up and rubbed her eye's, Bellatrix looked around the room, unable to find a solution for the noise. After listening for a few minuets, she still couldn't hear or see it. Bellatrix decided to get up and go to make some food. As she closed the bedroom door behind her, she heard the strange noise once again. Bellatrix opened the door again, she could see the device, there was light coming from it. Bellatrix walked over to it curiously, she picked it up, seeing Hermione's name on the screen made Bellatrix smile. She pressed a few buttons and the messages. The first message was telling Bellatrix how much Hermione missed her, reading the message made Bellatrix choke back the tears. The second made Bellatrix happy, she hadn't been this happy in a long time. Hermione had told her that she had spoken to Dumbledore and he agreed to it. Hermione had just got into bed, when her phone vibrated." I can't wait to see you."
Early Monday morning, Bellatrix was up, pacing up and down the hall. How long will she be? I can't wait much longer. Bellatrix jumped at the sound of her front door knocking, Bellatrix's pulse began to race, her stomach flurried. Bellatrix opened the front door. To Bellatrix's surprise, who she found standing in front of her was not Hermione. Bellatrix started to panic, this can't be good, why was he here? What did he want?
