An Angel's Voice
Chapter 10:
Look Out Harry & You Will Be the End of Me…Hermione
"Oh come on 'Moine," Harry, Ginny, and Ron said pleadingly, "You have to join! It'll be a total blast!"
Hermione arched her eyebrow in amusement. "No, absolutely not! I simply refuse to!"
The three students have been bugging Hermione for the last hour to join in the Talent Show ever since yesterday when Hermione was back to herself. Everyone was glad that she was smiling—except the Slytherins (they had better things to do)—and laughing that they were at the point of crawling around behind Hermione's feet and were now groveling. To Hermione aggravation as well as her amusement she still said no.
"Besides," Hermione started to explain why she couldn't, "I have to get working. Being away can cause that you know," she said in a matter-of-fact way.
"Work," Ginny said annoyingly.
"Work," Harry now said repeating what Ginny had said.
"Work," Ron said exaggeratingly.
"THAT'S ALL YOU EVER DO, 'MOINE," her friends barked at her dear friend. Hermione had to back away thinking that they could somehow get bigger and then tower over her and then start yappin' at her. Like those cartoons she saw sometime ago.
"I'm not all work and play you know," Hermione spat back. 'believe me,'Hermione thought.
"Well then why won't you join the Talent Show," Harry asked.
Ginny nodded, "yes? We are on our feet begging," she averted her eyes to the body that was now lying on the ground.
"Again I say 'no,' you guys," Hermione said as she bend down and looked at all of them.
'Oh great,' the three thought, 'She's going to give us a motherly lecture.'
For Ginny and Ron they thought as well, 'we already get enough of that from Mum!'
"Come on Hermione," Ginny said, "don't you want to show the whole student body that you're more than just a bookworm—no offense."
Hermione stared wide eyes at Ginny. Did she know about her singing? 'no, that's not possible. Professor Snape wouldn't tell anyone. I think…'
"Yeah," Ron said joining in Ginny's comment, "surely you must have something good that you can show them and us."
Hermione sighed in relief through her nose, 'good! It was just a coincidence.' "I don't know…"
"Hermione come on! We are not leaving until you say 'yes,'" Harry stated.
Hermione looked down at the ground, thinking. Could she really do that when she never sang to her parents first of all? Nobody—except Professor Snape—ever heard her sing. Would she be able to come out of her dark little corner she had been hiding for so long?
Hermione needed help, but she didn't want her friends help. She needed someone that already knew her little secret, safer that way. She needed Professor Snape.
When Harry never got a reply for a minute he started to get worried, all three of them did. Last time they saw that look it was two days ago. Harry stood up and waved his hand in front of Hermione, "earth to Hermione? Yo," Harry said.
Hermione blinked and that "far off" look was gone. Her eyes focused back on her friends and jumped a little bit. She didn't even see them stand up. "What?"
"You had that far off look," Ginny said with concern written all over her face, "You okay?"
Hermione nodded and then smiled, "yeah just thinkin' of something. Nothing to worry about," she reassured her friends with a smile.
Harry and Ginny looked at each other with an arched up eyebrow and then back to Hermione. "Alright…"
"Hey you guys I got to go get something. Mind if I leave," Hermione said as she started to back up.
"Promise you won't do something crazy," Harry asked. Feeling as if he was like mother who didn't want her child to walk to the other side of the street.
"I promise," Hermione said as she ran down the corner. Nothing was left that the three other Gryffindors could see besides air.
The three looked at each other and then Ron decided to speak up, "Well…I think I'm going to talk to Lavender. Hopefully Lavender can agree with my terms about Hermione," he quickly left and now stood Harry and Ginny. Alone.
The two stood in silence for a few seconds, but for Ginny, it felt like hours. Ginny opened her mouth about to talk to Harry and maybe be able to have a chat. Before Ginny could open utter a word there was some giggles around the corner that Hermione had left and there was a group of Ravenclaw girls.
One of them happened to be Cho Chang. Ginny mentally glared at Cho for ruining her opportunity with Harry. She quickly averted her eyes up to see Harry's breath become extremely quiet. 'Fiddle sticks! Cho! You just had to come in. NOW! Of all times,' Ginny thought angrily.
Harry's eyes followed his prey like it was a pack of meat. Harry had been having a crush with Cho ever since he noticed her (a/n: I believe in fourth year…in the Goblet of Fire).
Ginny felt jealousy course through her body of how Harry was staring at Cho. 'Cho,' Ginny thought angrily, 'here you are walking as if the famous Potter isn't there. Don't you see that you Harry is looking at you? That look that he's giving you is…is…oh Merlin I can' even say it!' Ginny looked back up and could see a small twitch on the corner of Harry's mouth. She felt her heart freeze and she started to walk away from the scene. The pain of Harry staring at someone that's not her hurt her heart. 'She doesn't know you like I do Harry. I know you. Here I am for your taking. My arms are open for you…so…why don't you see me. You see me don't you? You know I'm there,' Ginny began to feel tears form into her eyes.
She heard a small voice that was beginning to nag at her. 'Maybe he doesn't care, 'Gin. Like he would though. Besides you have nothing to offer him. all he'll sees is just a small girl who's probably hopeless.'Ginny could feel that this voice was starting to smile evilly.
Ginny bit her lip to hold back the tears. 'You are something, Ginny. You are.'
'Yes,' the voice said tauntingly, 'Keep telling yourself that…maybe I might go away,' it started to laugh at her being this vulnerable.
Ginny started to pace in her footsteps hoping to mainly get away from the voice. The laughter slowly faded as Ginny reached the outsides of the school grounds. She sighed in relief. She was now determined more than ever to get Harry's attention. She then, right there, promised herself that she would get Harry's attention.
"I'm coming Harry…so look out," Ginny whispered to the air.
Severus looked up at the clock for the twentieth time or so today. It wasn't a full day and so far Severus felt empty. He wanted to see Miss Granger again, to hear her voice again. He couldn't explain it, but whenever he was with that girl he felt like he could put his barrier down a little bit. Also be himself when he was with her, well…in his view that is. Just he was going to think more about how that girl intrigued her, the door knocked.
Snape unconsciously groaned, thinking it was some other student who was just going to spoil his day. He really didn't feel like dealing with those brainless students. He barked out to the door, "enter!"
Hermione stopped for a second, thinking that this was a bad idea. 'Why are you even doing this, 'Moine,' Hermione's subconscious said.
Hermione rolled her eyes, 'yeah, but why? Why not go to someone else?'
Hermione could tell that her unconsciousness was starting to get paranoid, 'I thought we established that while we were walking all the way over here? He's the only where he can possibly actually understand you…remember,' her voice drawled out to her.
Hermione rolled her eyes. She lifted the door open and slowly let her head, just her head, in the room. "Professor,"
Snape was about to say something, but instantly shut it once he realized who's voice it was. Snape looked up and saw Hermione's nervous face wanting to know if it was safe to come in or not. He just couldn't stop himself from saying, 'she's so cute with a face like that.'
Hermione bit her lip and had her eyes looking from left to right and then back to her Professor, "are you busy."
'Never when you're involved,' he thought. He shook his head, "no, I was just about to go for a walk."
Hermione looked at him and looked at him with a furrow brow. Since when would he go out for just "walks?"
Severus knowing exactly what she was thinking commented, "I am a human being, Hermione."
Hermione shook her head, "yeah I—" Hermione looked at her teacher wide. "What did you just say?"
Severus looked at her with one eyebrow up, "what?"
"My name," she whispered, she started to walk in the class and walked up to him slowly, "you said my name."
Severus was shocked, but quickly hid it, "I—" for the first time in Severus' life, he actually couldn't think of what to say. He also felt like he was completely vulnerable, which was defiantly not a good.'Merlin, has she got underneath my skin. We're now on first name basis.'
Hermione looked at him just as shocked as he was, but for different reasons. One, it was the first time that he couldn't say anything and two, he just said her first name. Hermione could see that her professor was having trouble so she quickly helped him out and just changed the subject. Hoping it would somehow calm him…as well as her own. "Umm…" Hermione's voice brought Severus back to earth, "mind if I joined you on this 'walk," Professor?"
Severus, still trying to sort the name that he just called out moments ago, just nodded and then stood up. Hermione giggled after she drifted her chocolate brown eyes over to her Professor who was, mind you, still in a daze. Once Severus heard that giggle he came back to earth for the second time with her today and glared at her. No matter how Severus' eyes got narrower at Hermione she just giggled more.
"And pray tell, Miss Granger, what is so amusing," Severus' voice drawled out as his eyes became narrow.
"I—hehehe—you're just…" Hermione smiled and her giggles slowly subsided. Standing strait up again Hermione just kept her smile with a little bit of mirth in her eyes, "nothing Sir," she said as she walked by accidentally having her hair flow behind her and underneath her potions teacher's nose.
Severus tried not to take a deep breath, but his body said otherwise. It took him a few seconds when he heard her voice again.
"You coming Professor," Hermione asked with her whole body, except her head out the door as her hands where gripping the door.
"Yes," he said as he gritted his tooth.
Hermione smiled and again Severus felt his heart flip. Hermione turned and started to head off, knowing fully that her teacher would come in a second.'Probably wants to get his ego back to its average amount,'Hermione thought as she smiled.
Severus walked out and underneath his breath he whispered to himself, low enough so Hermione couldn't hear, "you will be the end of me…Hermione…"
Severus finally walked out of the Hogwarts ground not even seeing that there was someone whose eyes were twinkling as if there was not tomorrow. The figure whose robes were purple's robes walked away humming a sweet sound as he went back to his office and get ready for the Talent Show that was going to happen within a few days.
(A/n: All right, who do you think is the figure in the purple robes is? I think it should be easy. I think…don't know, but I think you might know, hopefully. All right this chapter is finnie…I see I got seven (7) reviews when I really wanted eight (8). Now looking back, I think I made my demand a tad bit higher than it should be, so sorry about that part. So…I'll just let the reviews come. Can't wait for a review at least a review will get me happy.
