Chapter 2: Trapped!

A/N I just want to thank everyone who reviewed the first chapter. I was not expecting to get that many reviews. I know 24 isn't a lot, but it means so much to me. After reading Ingenious' review I've decided to type differently. Since I'm not good with all the spaces and things I asked my bestest friends in the whole wide world, Jey4eva, to help me. Please read her stuff! It's so original and for a 12 year old it's really awesome! So, I want to thank my beta-reader Jey4eva for all of her help with this story. Thanks, babe! I owe you one! Okay, now to the story! Drum roll please........okay, here we go!

Disclaimer: Oh darn! Okay, here we go........(in a bored voice) I don't own any of the characters in this story. They all belong to the (in happy voice) incredibly talented, beautiful, Scottish may I add, and wonderful J.K. Rowling!!!! Give her a round of applause! All right, here we go!

"Uh oh!"

"What are we going to do?" Hermione whispered to Ron. Her eyes were as big as golf balls.

"Um...come on!" Ron whispered back grabbing her hand and quietly placing her books on the table. "Drop your books!" He told her. "Quietly...." he added before she threw them on the table.

"Okay. Now what?" She asked. "Where should we go? I can't get caught, Ron. I'm a prefect. This could get us expelled. Oh God......oh God......" she whispered frantically.

"Shut up, will you?" He said quietly pulling her around and dragging her behind a book shelf. "I don't know where he is. I don't want to go through the front doors in case he's there."

Hermione looked at him quickly and then looked at the floor where she saw a long, dark shadow coming from around the side of the book shelf. "Ron...look!" She pointed to the shadow and Ron's eyes followed her finger.

"Come on!" He tightened his grip on her hand and pulled her around to the other side.

"Ah ha! I've got you now!" They heard Filch's voice from the other side. They saw a light fill up the whole bookshelf and then Filch's voice again saying, "My sweet, they're not here. Where could they've gone? Lets go. We'll search the Astronomy Tower. Lord, knows those disgusting children are always up there doing something inappropriate."

His voice faded as they heard the library doors close. Ron let out a long, low whistle. "That was close!" He said letting go of her hand which he just realised he'd been holding the whole time. He blushed scarlet and ran a hand through his hair. "Shall we go back to the common room, then?"

"Yeah...I guess. Lets go." Hermione replied getting up off the floor and walked toward the table they had been sitting at earlier. She picked up her books and put them in her bag.

Ron walked up to her and put his hands in his pockets. When she was finished putting her books in her bag he asked, "Ready?"

"Yeah...."

They walked out of the library and walked down the corridors in silence until.....BANG!

"Peeves!" Ron yelled. They both stared down the corridor until they saw Peeves the Poltergeist floating towards them.

"Ohhhhh.....wee little children a-sneakin around the castle in the dead of night. What shall I do? I should call Filch, I should. Hmmm........" He said in a sing-song voice.

"Peeves, get stuffed!" Ron hissed at him as he grabbed Hermione's hand again and stormed down the corridor.

"CHILDREN AWAKE AND SNEAKING 'ROUND THE CASTLE! LITTLE WEE CHILDREN OUT OF BED! HURRY!!!!! Peeves screamed at the top of his lungs. Ron and Hermione didn't waste any time.

"Come on!" Ron screamed as they heard hundreds of doors around the whole castle being thrown open. "We have to hide!"

"What? Hide? Where?" Hermione asked running next to him. Ron pulled her to a door down the 3rd floor corridor.

"In here!" He opened the door and pushed her inside. He closed the door and they found themselves in a broom closet that was very crowded with different cleaning supplies. Hermione lit her wand and placed it on a shelf. Ron followed suit. There wasn't much light, but it was enough that they could at least see each other's faces.

Hermione flipped a bucket over and sat down. "What are we going to do? Stay in here all night and not get any sleep?" She asked Ron as he sat down on a bucket as well.

"Well, you probably wouldn't have slept anyway if I hadn't come to get you," Ron answered leaning his back against a shelf. "We're just going to have to wait a few hours until sunrise."

"Sunrise?!" She screamed loudly.

Ron covered her mouth with his hand and whispered, "Shhhhhh! Do you want us to get caught!? Now, we'll just have to make the best of this, okay? They'll probably search the whole castle."

"Okay," Hermione sighed and rested her head on a wall. "Ow....this is not comfortable!" She sighed loudly.

"Well, of course it isn't. I would've thought with your brains you would've known that by now."

"Shut up!" She replied not able to come up with a better come back. (A/N And neither could I! LOL!)

"Do you reckon we should lock the door?" Ron asked standing up and looking at the door.

"Yeah....that would make sense," Hermione replied standing up next to him and getting out her wand. "I'll do it."

"Okay," Ron said as Hermione stepped towards the door.

"We'll be able to open it from the inside, but they won't be able to open it from out there," she pointed at the door. She pointed her wand at the door and whispered, "Sellado!"

She wanted to see if it worked so she covered the door knob with her hand and turned. It didn't budge. She tried again. It didn't open.

"Uhhhhh......um...Ron, I think we have a problem," she said turning around and facing him. He was sitting on the bucket again. Her face was white.

"What...What problem? What's wrong?" He asked standing up and moving towards her. "Let me see!"

He turned the door knob, but nothing happened. "What did you do!?" He screamed at her not thinking of keeping his voice down.

"I...I didn't do anything! I just did the spell! I don't know what happened!" She screamed back at him. He glared at her and then sat back down on his bucket.

"Well, that's just great, you know. We'll probably be stuck in here until we die which won't be long...." He said putting his chin on his hand and glaring at a sponge.

"Have you forgotten that I'm at the top of our class? I can do things that many of you cannot. I can get us out of here in a second. I'll just use Alohmora!" Hermione raised her wand and said clearly, "Alohmora!" Nothing happened. "What?! How can this happen? Alohmora always works! Oh my gosh...I'm losing my touch....this can't be happening!" She said starting to bang her head on the door.

"Wha-What are you doing?! Stop!" Ron ran over to her and brought her over to the buckets. He made her sit down and he sat, too.

"The only thing I can think of is...we wait until the morning and then we wait until we hear someone coming down the corridor and we bang on the door really loudly so they'll hear us and let us out!" He said this all very quickly. "At least we won't have to take Snape's foul test tomorrow."

"You just don't want to take it because you didn't study," she said looking at him with a well-it's-your-fault-you-didn't-study look on her face.

"Okay, how about we don't get into a row while we're stuck in here together so that way we won't kill each other," Ron said resting his back on the shelf again. "We should try to get some sleep."

"You've got to be kidding! I can't sleep in here! Especially with you next to me!" She said standing up.

"Okay, I'm just going to act like I didn't hear that. Will you just sit down! Don't go to sleep then. It's not like a give a bloody crap!"

She whirled around and came face to face with him. "I would really appreciate it if you wouldn't swear. Okay!?" She said putting her hands on his shoulders and giving him a fake smile. Ron thought she looked like she'd gone insane.

"All right......" he said slowly.

A/N Okay, I know that was a really weird ending for this chapter and I know this chapter was kind of boring and short. I'm sorry! I couldn't think of anything better. I'm not really good at writing long chapters. The next chapter will be better because they won't be bickering. Well, actually, I love when they bicker! Anyway, please review! Don't tell me how boring this story is getting because I already know! Thanks anyway for reading it. If you stick around I'll give you a better chapter next time. Okay, I'll shut up now! Review! Thanks!
