Chapter 6- Excuse Me Hermione

Hermione stood in the room and watched with beedy eyes as Ginny gave way for Draco to pass through the door. She was scared. You see there was a small problem.No one knew about Hermione and Draco being together, and Hermione was scared at what the usually questioning Ginny was going to ask her.

To everyone, Draco and Hermione were just Head Boy and Girl, who had to share a dorm. In everyone's eyes they despised eachother but were able to work together when it came to school. No one suspected any hint of romance in them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~

Ginny had watched Malfoy pass, and turned her head, facing Hermione. She took a step towards her. "'Mione, are you okay? What did he do to you?" She asked inquiringly. "He didn't do anything Gin. We just got into a heated argument about the assignment Professor Dumbledore gave us on Ancient Latin Wizards. He wanted to do Fumbleknot and I wanted to do Alchemas. And....I just guess we have very different opinions. Thats all." Hermione smiled weakly, she knew deep inside she haden't wanted Draco to leave but she smiled because the excuse she had given Ginny was so believable.

"Are you sure 'Mione, is that all it was?'' Said Ginny, putting a hand on her friend's shoulder. "You'd tell me if something happened, wouldn't you. No matter who it was. Malfoy or..or even Ron. He can be stupid somtimes. Very stupid." Ginny added, smiling.

"No Ginny, nothing else happened at all, tonights' been a quiet night, except for when Drac...I mean Malfoy came and ruined things.......Suddenly Hermione remembered Kate. "Look Ginny I'm really tired, and I've screamed so much this afternoon that I feel like a Quidditch commentator. I'm gonna go to bed. See you in the morning." Hermione hugged Ginny and practically ran out of the room.

"Hmmm, Strange" Ginny said aloud. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ There you go, the next chapter. Things start to get complicated.
