"Hermione! Wake up! It's breakfast time!" Ginny banged on the door. She waited for a response, but she didn't
get one. She opened the door, to see an empty bed.
' Weird,' she thought. She went to the Common Room.
"Has anyone seen Hermione?" She asked.
"Now that you ask...no...I was up here until about 2 in the morning, and I didn't see her walk in," Lavender Brown
answered. Ginny waited for her brother to get up, then informed him and Harry about the situation.
"Well, she went out with Draco last night...an anniversary dinner," Ron told Ginny.
"And she's not back yet?" Ginny questioned.
"I'm not going to nose around in their buisness Ginny.
"That's a first," Ginny snorted. Harry and Ron walked to the Great Hall, and sat down.
"Draco isn't even here," Ron said. They continued eating, when Ron glanced up and looked at the Slytherin
table.
"Oh my gosh," he whispered.
"What?" Harry asked.
"Look," Ron pointed to the Slytherin table. Harry looked, and the crowd of Slytherins parted, revealing Draco
Malfoy sitting in the center. His eyes were as dark and cold as night, and his hair was slicked back, and his face as
white as powder.
"What is he doing there?" Harry asked. Ron shrugged, then sat up.
"And where's Hermione? If Draco's here..."
Ron stood up and marched straight to the Slytherin table.
"Draco Malfoy! Where is Hermione! And what did you do to her?" Ron yelled.
"Ron! Calm down! She's at home sick. We went out to dinner, and she ate something, and got sick. Relax, I
took her home, and she's resting. She'll be back any day now," he said with a smirk. Ron and Harry left the Great Hall
and walked to their Common Room.
"I don't like this Harry. Not one bit," Ron said, "Since when does Draco sit with the Slytherins, especially after
what they did to him last week."
"I know," Harry agreed. Satuday came and went, and so did Sunday. Monday arrived, and still no Hermione.
After school, Harry and Ron went to the Gryffindor and together wrote a letter, for Hedwig to deliver to Hermione.
Dearest Hermione,
Harry and Ron here. Draco told us you weren't feeling too well, and judging by the fact that it's nearly Tuesday,
and you're not here at school; you really must be sick. We're quite surprised that you haven't sent word for us or Draco
to send you your homework!
So how was your anniversay dinner with Draco (besides the getting sick part)? Hope it went okay!
To tell you the truth, when we saw Draco on Saturday, he was sitting with the Slytherins, and he looked different.
Like how he looked in first year; with the hair slicked back, the pale face, and the dark evil eyes. Don't be mad at us for
telling you this, but for now, we really hope you feel better, and come back soon! Talk to you later!
Lots of love, your two best friends,
Harry and Ron
Harry attached the letter to Hedwig's leg and let her out. They sat in silence, doing there homework, waiting for
the return of Hedwig. By 11pm, she had not returned, so Harry and Ron turned in.
Meanwhile back at Lord Voldemort's lair...
