~The sky is falling and no one knows
it shouldn't be hard to believe
shouldn't be this difficult to breathe
the sky is falling and no one knows
you leave me hanging on
only to catch my breath
I got you and I got nothing left
don't leave me all alone down here
with myself and all of my fear~ ^Lifehouse^ The Sky is Falling
Hermione, found an empty compartment, and sat down. She was now on the Hogwarts Express. She was too scared to walk around and look for Harry and Ron, in fear of having to walk past Draco. A tear started to roll down her cheek, but she quickly wiped it away, and decided to read to get her mind off of Draco.
A couple minutes later, Harry and Ron came walking into the compartment. "Hey Hermione." They cried, as they saw that she was in there. Hermione put down her book and gave both of them a hug.
"So what did you do this summer `Moine?" Ron asked. Hermione froze, what was she going to say? She couldn't tell them that she had the best summer with their enemy! "Well, you know, the usual..I got Head Girl." Good cover- up she thought.
"That's great!"
"And what did you two do this summer?" She asked, quickly changing the subject.
"Well, Harry came to our house again. We tried sending you an owl, but you never answered." Ron explained.
Hermione shocked again quickly thought of something. "Oh, really? I, I never got any owls, except the one from Hogwarts."
"That's odd." Harry, knew that Hermione was lying, but Ron just thought it was strange.
"I'll be right back, I'm going to find Ginny." Ron said. "Are you two coming."
"Yah, I'll come." Harry said.
"You two go on, I'm just going to have a nap." Hermione didn't want to go she didn't want to see Draco, in fear of crying. * What a year this is going to be! *
Ron shrugged and went through the compartment door. Harry who was half way out stopped. "Hermione, are you okay?"
Hermione looked at him, gave him a small smile and said "Yah, I'm fine. You go help Ron find Ginny, I'm just tired that's all." Harry nodded and left the compartment.
It'll be way harder to keep this from Harry then from Ron. * Hermione thought.
~***~ They were now, back in the Gryffindor common room, stuffed from the feast. Hermione not once had seen Draco.
"I'm going to bed, I'll see you in the morning." Hermione got up, and went to the girl's dormitory. ~***~
Harry, Ron, and Hermione were on their way to their first class of the day, transfiguration. Hermione, who had her head down in her book, did not notice that Harry and Ron had stopped. She kept walking and bumped into someone. She looked up and saw Draco. They were staring at eachother, not knowing what to do. Draco spoke first "Next time watch where your going, mudblood." He spat. Hermione was still looking in his eyes, and knew that he was sorry. But why did it hurt her so much, if she knew it was pretend?
~***~
That night, Hermione was in the library, studying. But in her mind she was thinking about what had happened. Why couldn't they still be friends? Why did he have to be in Slytherin and her in Gryffindor? Why were her friends enemies with him and his friends? Why couldn't everything be alright? She looked down, and saw the cube necklace, that hung around her neck. She took it off, and held it in her hand, and began to cry.
~***~
Draco was sitting in the Slytherin common room. Why did he have to call her a mudblood? Could she see that he didn't mean it? Or was she mad at him? Did he ruin everything? Would he ever be able to be her friend again? Draco then realized that, he loved her.
~***~
Hermione was now lying in her four-poster bed in the girl's dormitory. Still crying about Draco. Then she realized that she loved him, and that she had to see him as soon as possible!
Hermione got out of her bed, and took a walk down to the lake. Maybe he would be there. She sat beneath a large tree and waited.
~***~
Draco crept out of the Slytherin common room, and made his way to the lake. Maybe she would be there.
~***~
Draco saw a figure, sitting beneath a tree. He walked closer, and found that it was Hermione.
Hermione looked up and saw Draco. She stood up and hugged him.
"I'm really sorry. You do know that I didn't mean what I said right?"
"I know. This is a lot harder than one may think."
"Very much so." Draco wanted to say that he loved her, but couldn't. It seemed that the most they could ever be was friends, and even that was hard enough. But he still hoped that one day, everyone would know that they were friends.
Hermione wanted to tell Draco that she loved him, but it was too hard. Just being friends was killing her inside.
"So, do you know what our first Head Girl, and Head Boy assignment is?" Draco asked.
"No, I haven't heard anything yet, but I can't wait."
"Me neither."
And they sat there for the rest of the night, thinking about questions that started with the word why. Don't you just hate that word?
There's chapter 6! I have an idea for chapter 7! I think it'll be pretty cute. Anyhow I do not own the characters and such, J.K Rowling does, so of course I don't! And the song belongs to Lifehouse!
