While the Gryffindor team headed to their house to celebrate their 8-0 winning streak, Hermione skipped out on the party and headed down to the dungeons with Draco, for a little peace and quiet. Since Hermione wasn't allowed in the Slytherin house, they occupied an empty classroom, and set up dinner, with small, floating candles. They ate, and talked, having fun together, when sudddenly the door burst open.
"Miss GRANGER!" Snape's bellowing voice rang through the classroom. Hermione jumped at the sound of Snape's voice.
"And what do you think you're doing here?" He questioned, "Why aren't you with you're house, celebrating that-that win Potter gave you?"
"Professor, I'm having dinner," Hermione told him.
"50 points from Gryffindor! You should be in your house!" He yelled. Draco stood up, and spoke up, "With all do respect Professor, I was the one who brought her down here, she's my responsability, so I believe you should take 50 points from Slytherin, if you're gonna punish her, because it was all my idea."
Snape fumed with anger, as he didn't want to take points away from his own house, as his house hadn't won since Harry Potter had arrived at the school.
"Very well, Granger," Snape sneered, "You're off the hook now, but I suggest you head upstairs and eat somewhere else, and I assure you that next time you're here in the dungeons, unless there is class, I WILL take points from Gryffindor!" With that he stormed out of the classroom, slamming the door after him.
"Geesh! How'd he know that we were here anyways?" Hermione asked. Draco's eyes went wide, and jumped up, thrusting the door open. Hermione got up and followed him.
"Pansy Parkinson!" Draco yelled, "Come out where I can see you this INSTANT!"
From out of nowhere, Pansy, who was invisible, appeared, her eyes flaring with madness.
"Was it YOU that informed Snape of us being here?" Draco's cold eyes replaced his warm silver eyes. He walked straight up to Pansy, who's face was red with anger.
"Yes it was!" Her annoying shrill of a voice declared,"And you can't do anything about it!"
"Is there anything wrong with Hermione and I being down here? We weren't doing anything illegal you know!" Draco continued yelling.
"No but SHE," Pansy pointed furiusly at Hermione, "Doesn't belong here!"
"You know what Pansy, if Hermione doesn't belong here, than neither do I!!!" Draco spat out. Pansy gasped at his remarks and burst into tears.
"Why HER Draco why?" She wailed, "We were so good together! What does she have that I don't?!"
Draco sighed, with utter annoyance, "Pansy there is NO 'we' in you and I. We were NEVER together! Get that through you're head!"
Draco grabbed Hermione's hand, and dragged her upstairs, muttering curses under his breath.
"We could head up to the Prefect house," Hermione suggested. Draco grunted in agreement, and dragged her up to her house. She spoke the password, and lead the angered Draco to the common room. She let Draco pace up and down the room, letting off steam, as he yelled at her of his problems.
"I HATE the way they're treating me! What am I all of a sudden DIFFERENT?! Honestly! I'm still Draco Malfoy, am I not?" He ranted. She didn't answer, but let him continue.
"Sheesh! Even Crabbe and Goyle are acting stupid around me, you'd think I was a dancing Veela or something! And Pansy! For goodness sake! 'We were so good together'," he mocked Pansy's wails.
Hermione giggles, and kept on listening quietly, until he finally just plumped down on the couch and sighed. Hermione moved next to him, and snuggled into him, comforting him and letting him know that she was there. Harry and Ron returned from the party only a few minutes later, and Hermione explained to her friends what had happened that earlier that night. The four talked for another hour, with Hermione telling her friends about Viktor's upcoming visit.
"Remind me to talk to Professor Dumbledore tomorrow," Hermione said beforing kissing Draco goodnight, and saying goodnight to Harry and Ron, before heading to her room to sleep.
