Chapter 10
The next day, Ron was making Harry go get something to eat before he could see Hermione. "Ron, I'm not hungry!" Harry said as Ron pulled him into the Great Hall. "I don't care. Hermione wouldn't want you to faint in front of her!" Ron said. Finally Harry stopped fighting, "Okay. Fine." He said. As they were walking by the end of the Slythiren table, they heard some Slythirens talking. "I heard someone tried to kill that mudblood." One whispered. "Yeah, I heard they tried to suffocate her." Another whispered. Then they heard that nastily voice, they knew, say, "Who would want to touch her?" It was Malfoy. Before Ron could stop him, Harry lunged at Malfoy and pulled him by his shoulders onto the floor. Then Harry sat on him. "YOU'RE THE ONE THAT TRIED TO KILL HER!" Harry said, then he gave Malfoy one good punch in the nose before Ron pulled him off. "You are so lucky that the teachers are at another meeting, and nobody was here to see that." Ron said as him and Harry walked to their spot at the Gryffindor table. "I don't care." Harry muttered. Ron rolled his eyes, "If you got caught, you wouldn't have been able to see Herm. So, you would have cared." Ron said as him and Harry sat down.
Harry wolfed down his breakfast within 10 minutes, and headed straight to the Hospital wing with Ron following close behind him. When Harry got to the Hospital wing, Hermione was laying in the bed, with her eyes closed, listening to a CD player. Harry walked to the bed side. "Herm?" He said as he touched her shoulder. Her eyes darted open and she tensed up, but when she saw it was Harry she quickly relaxed. Harry smiled down at her, and she smiled back as she took off her CD player. "Hi." She said, her voice sounding a little horse. "Hi." Harry said back before he leaned down and hugged her. "How are you feeling?" He asked as he straightened up. "Okay." said Hermione nodding thoughtfully. Harry couldn't resist, he leaned down and gave her a light kiss on the mouth. "I was worried." He said.
Ron stood a few feet away watching the two. It was like he, Ron, had just disappeared. "Hi." He finally said as he waved his hand. Harry and Hermione both looked in his direction. Hermione blushed a little. "Hi, Ron." She said, with her blush turning into a welcome smile. Ron walked over to Hermione and gave her a huge, too. "Harry almost wrung Malfoy's neck." Ron whispered in Hermione's ear. "So, when do you think Pomfrey will let you out?" Harry asked. "She said that if Malfoy had kept me from breathing any longer, I would have lost to much oxygen. And, she also said, she wants to keep me another night." Hermione finished quietly. "And she needs her rest!" Said a voice behind Harry and Ron. "Sorry, Madam Pomfrey." Hermione said as Harry and Ron turned toward her. "Now, you two should leave and be off to class." Pomfrey said. Harry and Ron nodded, but before Pomfrey could get then out the door Harry gave Hermione a kiss good-bye.
Ron and Harry went up to Gryffindor tower to get their thing for their first class, Potions. Ron looked at his watch. "Shit! We're already ten minutes late!" He said. Harry quickly throw all his things in his bag, then Ron and himself ran out the portrait hole.
When they got to the class, Snape was turned away and the Slythiren's weren't paying any attention. Ron and Harry tip toed toward their seats. Finally, they sat down. But as soon as they did, they heard a voice. "Mr. Weasly, Mr. Potter, you're late." It was Snape. And he said that without even turning forward.
