Midnight Wanderer-Part 1
"Okay, class, I am going to call out your scores in alpha order so Hermione, you're first on my list...100%!" The Muggle Studies professor announced during the end of class. He grinned a toothy smile and proceeded down the list.
"Yes!" Hermione exclaimed. But she blushed when she realized she had shouted out loud.
When everyone's grades were announced, the class was dismissed. Hermione was glad because it had been very stuffy in there. the only bad thing was that Potions was next. She only had one minute to spare since she had so generously helped little Collin Creevy pick up his books that he had dropped in the hallway.
Just as her foot touched the stone dungeon floor, Professor Snape snapped, "Ten points from Gryffindor, Miss Granger!" Rolling her eyes, Hermione took a seat besides Harry. A few snickers from Draco and Pansy were heard from the corner of the dungeon.
Two melted cauldrons (Neville's of course) and a "No, ten points from Gryffindor for talking too loud" from Snape, the class ended and Hermione gratefully left the cold room.
"Man, I hate homework. Snape gave us an over-load today. How am I ever gonna finish it?" Ron said angrily to Harry and Hermione. Harry nodded and replied, "Yeah, I know. And he gave ME even more for telling Malfoy to shut up!"
Hermione wasn't even paying attention. She was thinking about tonight when she would go to her secret room...

It was 10PM, and Hermione was glad too. She didn't need Harry's cloak since the room wasn't far away. She slung her bag over her shoulder and stuffed in her Potions homework and books. Quietly, she made her way down the torch-lit corridors, past the angry gargoyle, and down the red carpeted hallway. When she entered the room though, she found out she wasn't the only one who knew about it. The table beside the window had books scattered on its surface, and there were several candles lit here and there. She heard footsteps behind her and heard a voice.
Draco walked up to her, "I thought I would meet you here, Granger." He had a smirk on his face.
"What do you want, Malfoy?" Hermione demanded. She stared into his cold gray eyes.
"I found this room when I was in the fifth year. It's been mine ever since."
"I bet it was to hit on your 'girlfriends'," Hermione muttered.
"What was that Granger? I wouldn't say things like that about me if I was you."
"Were," Hermione corrected him.
He squinted his mean little eyes at her and turned to leave, "Just remember, this room belongs to me okay?"
Bewildered, Hermione sat on the neatly made bed and fished into her bag for her Transfiguration book. Hermione stayed in "her" room for a hour, studying and thinking. She thought about Harry, her boyfriend, and Draco. She didn't like Draco, she just felt...sympathy for him. She thought about life in general. Finally, at 11:15PM, she left to go back to her dormitory.
So how'd y'all like this one? What should happen next? Review and tell me what your opinion is and maybe I could work in and idea or two.
