A/N: Hi, I did not get very many reviews on my last story, but maybe that's because it's only been out for a day, but anyway thanks to The Padded One and Kathy for reviewing my story. I don't think this one is a big cliffhanger, but maybe it is.
***
While Hermione was asleep in Harry's lap she had the same dream. She appeared in the forest again and the same person was walking toward her again. He had something covering his face this time so she still didn't know who it was. When he was only 20 feet away, a dragon appeared. It turned toward Hermione and looked very ferocious. Hermione got scared and screamed for help. The person in black suddenly had a sword. He ran and stabbed the dragon. Then it disappeared. Then Hermione found herself underwater and she was tied to a big rock. The person was swimming toward her. He took out a knife and cut her free and he carried her up to the surface. They were on their way back to land, but then Harry woke Hermione up.
"Hermi, it's getting dark," he said.
"Huh, oh Harry, I'm sorry, I feel asleep on you there."
"It's okay, come on, let's go back to the castle, it's almost time for dinner."
"Okay," Hermione said. Harry stood up and held out his hand. Hermione took it and they walked back to the castle, up the stairs, through the portrait hole and there was Ginny and Ron playing chess.
"Hi Ron," Hermione said.
"Hi Hermione," Ron said not looking at her or Harry.
"Who's winning?" Harry asked.
"I am," Ron answered, "Haaaa!" he yelled, "I got your queen.
"Darn, let's just say you win, it's no fun when you only have a king. Anyway, I gotta talk to Hermione," Ginny said.
"You do?" Hermione asked.
"Ya, come on," Ginny said pulling her up the stairs again. When the got to their room Ginny said, "So, what happened on your walk?"
"What do you mean?"
"Where'd you go?"
"Around the lake."
"Around the lake, how romantic."
"Ginny!"
"It is, anyway, what took you so long?"
"Why do you want to know?"
"I just do."
"Do you want to know everything we did?"
"Yup," Ginny said nodding her head.
"We sat under a tree, made out, and then I fell asleep in Harry's arms."
"Woah Hermi, you're sure doing good with the kissing part. Oh, you're so lucky! Going out with my man and my brother would do anything for you to go out with him. You got two guys who really like you, at least two guys that is. Oh, how I wish I could fall asleep in Harry's arms!"
"I guess I am kinda lucky, and I think I'm starting to get over Ron and onto Harry. God he's hot!"
"I know Harry's hot, I'm the one who's liked him since my first year. And he's all yours," Ginny said sadly.
"Well you're being really nice about me going out with Harry, you don't seem to mind."
"Well I do wish it was me going out with him and all, but it isn't so I'm gonna be happy for you while it's you."
"That's very nice of you," Hermione said.
"Well, I'm glad you're telling me all about what happens between you and Harry, like making out and sleeping in his lap and such. It makes me feel better knowing what you're doing with my man!"
"Your man, he's mine!"
"No! He's mine," Ginny screamed. They both started laughing and then they went downstairs for dinner. Hermione sat between Harry and Ginny. Ron sat next to Harry and he looked very sad, and he didn't look over at Harry or Hermione once.
After dinner they all went to the common room. Ginny and Ron each had their own chair and Harry and Hermione shared a couch. They got Ron to talk and he didn't look as sad by the end of the day. Many people passed by so they couldn't talk about anything important. Soon everyone started heading up to go to bed. Harry whispered to Hermione to meet him here when she was done upstairs. She nodded and quickly got changed and brushed her teeth and washed her face. She then snuck down to the common room and saw Harry sitting on the couch they were sitting on before. He had his invisibility cloak on his lap and she wondered if that was only for getting back to his dormitory.
"So what did you want me for?" she asked.
"Come under here," Harry said putting the invisibility cloak on over them. "I wanted to know if you would go to the Christmas Dance with me, so will you?"
"Um, I'll think about it okay?" Harry looked sad for a second and then he said "okay." Then he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her cheek. Hermione felt good again and kissed him back. After a while Hermione said she had better go back to her room. Harry looked a bit sad again, and Hermione thought he must really like her. She thought she might have hurt his feelings when she said she'd think about going with him and she also had walked away from him. She would have to apologize to him in the morning. She then started to think about the dream she had had two times this day. She figured out that the person was doing the first two tasks and he probably wasn't Harry because Harry's favorite person was Ron, but it could have changed during the past three years. She then thought maybe it was Ron because she had been told he liked her. She then fell asleep and had that dream a third time, but this time it was the whole thing.

Okay, that's all for now. I'll try to have the next part up tomorrow, but I'm not sure I can. Pray for a snowday tomorrow then I can write all day! Please snow! Well, we probably won't have school tomorrow cause all the teachers are saying it will probably be canceled! Yahoo!!!!!! Okay enough of that please review and I'm expecting a lot more reviews then the last one because that disappointed me.
