She hadn't spoken in days. Draco was starting to worry about her, not that he cared at all! He just felt a little…guilty, that's all. Hannah kept apologizing once she'd found out what had happened, and she was giving Draco strange looks. She had come to find out about the first meeting for the Yule Ball Committee and entered their dormitory upon hearing Hermione's screams.
Draco had left Hermione to sleep after she had exhausted herself from crying. He'd been watching her the last couple days at the Gryffindor table.
"Please Hermione, just a little bit," Ron pleaded with her as he and Harry attempted to feed her some soup. She turned her head away from them, avoiding the spoon.
Draco had received menacing looks from Potter and Weasley and he automatically assumed that Abbott had already blabbed what had happened to the whole school.
He sat on the couch, staring at her bedroom door. She had locked herself in there again. Draco got up and began pacing the room. He couldn't understand why he felt so remorseful! It was only the mudblood and it wasn't as if he actually cared about her! He was a Malfoy for God's sake! Somehow, trying to convince himself that he was innocent of all charges, only made him feel worse.
"Oh for Christ's sake," he muttered and opened the door to her dark bedroom. The usually tidy room was an unruly mess. Draco strut over to the window and flung open the curtains.
"Alright, up, let's go, come on now," he announced, throwing open the balcony door.
Hermione, still her clothes, sat up in bed and squinted from the sudden flood of sunlight pouring in through her balcony. Draco was immediately caught of guard by her disheveled appearance and swore before he could stop himself.
"Jesus! Well good morning sunshine. You look like the bloody crypt keeper."
"It's freakin' 4 o'clock in the afternoon, what in the hell are you doing!" Hermione glared, speaking to him for the first time since the mishap had occurred.
"Fixing this so that Jiminy f-ing Cricket will leave me alone. Now stop moping and hurry up!" he said, leaving the room. Moments later, he poked his head back inside the door.
"And do run a comb through your hair before we go anywhere." Hermione stared after him, dumbfounded.
"Chop chop," he called from the other room.
"I am on a schedule here; I have a date at 8 o'clock!"
Draco waited for her on the couch and finally she appeared in the doorway.
"Sorry to keep you waiting your worship, I know how important your social calendar is. So what's this brilliant plan of yours," Hermione muttered as they left the dormitory.
"Well, it's nice to see that you're back to your sarcastic, sardonic old self," Draco mocked.
"Now, if you want your picture back, you will do everything I say and play along to whatever I do."
"You get us into any trouble and I swear to God, I will shove your head so far up your ass you'll wish you were dead," Hermione threatened in her sweetest voice.
"Right then," he continued.
"Glad we're clear." Hermione suddenly realized where they were as Draco came to a halt in front of her.
"What are we doing here!" she demanded.
"You of all people should remember, you're dear friend Scar Face pulled this stunt off 3 years ago," Draco said and opened the door. Reluctantly, Hermione followed him inside, into the office of Severus Snape.
