A/N: These chapters are really short I know and I doubt they will get any longer as I
continue but I don't really know yet.
Hermione stayed in her room all day, snapping at everyone who came in to see her, especially Harry and Ron, but still they kept on coming in and out every hour to make sure that she was okay. Lunch, dinner, she missed them all saying that she wasn't hungry and that she just wanted to be left alone, but they could tell that there was something wrong with her.
"It's Malfoy!" Ron said with disgust. "Has to be."
"Well she doesn't want to talk about it so lets just leave her alone, she will talk to us when she is ready."
"Do you really think so Harry? "You know what she's like, she's stubborn that one."
"She just needs some time. If she doesn't speak to us this time, leave it till tomorrow."
"'Tever you say."
Down in the common room the clock chimed eight and once again they were standing outside of Hermione's door. Harry knocked on the door. No reply from within, so they went in, they knew she was there alone anyway.
"Hermione?"
The room was clouded with darkness, and the drapes around Herminoe's bed were closed. "Hermione it's just us." Ron said softly.
"Go away, please just leave me alone?" Came a quiet voice from within the curtains.
"We brought you some food, thought you might be hungry." Harry said with equal quietness.
"I'm not, please just go away. I'll be fine tomorrow. But please go, I'm tired."
"Okay. But if you need us you know where we are."
"Thanks."
"We will just leave your food on the floor by your bed."
Hermione made no reply, so they left.
As they made their way down the spiral staircase, they said nothing, but they were both thinking the same thing. Or rather, the same name, Malfoy.
