Chapter 4

"Dam it!" Draco muttered to himself. "What are we going to do now?" he turned to look at me.

"How the hell am I suppose to know?" I asked.

"Well you're always the smart one so why don't you demonstrate for me."

"Oh shut the hell up you stupid prick!" "Make me darling dearest." Draco stood there and gave me his famous smirk.

I couldn't take the silence after that so I started to walk down the road to see if I could actually make it to school before the feast ended. I kept walking and noticed that he was following me. Then I stopped and turned to face him.

"Malfoy why are you following me?"

"Ummm. Gee Granger I never knew that you could be so dam dense at times. Well why do you think I'm following you?"

"Ummm. Because the school is this way?"

"WOW! I needed to use my brain for that one!"

"Oh fuck off Malfoy!"

We walk along the sandy road for about an hour or so when I started to get deep into my thoughts. 'God was that guy ever hot; oh I regret not asking for his name. I wonder if he liked me. I hope I didn't sound stupid when we were talking. I really do hope we see each other again!'

"What are you thinking about Granger?" Draco interrupted my train of thought.

"Well if you really want to know I will tell you."

"Well?"

"I was thinking of how disgusting it is walking beside you!"

At the look on his face I started hysterically laughing. I couldn't stop it was just too dam funny.

"Oh so you wanna play that game?" He said and run towards me.

I ran ahead of him and screamed out to him.

"Ewww it's you!!" I said teasingly.

"I'll show you who ewww is!" he said.

I ran and ran, with him following close behind me. I felt like I was about to collapse when I felt two grab me and started tickling me. Then started to laugh hysterically.

"Malfoy-please-stop!"

"Oh so now you want me to stop now do you?" he said laughing a little.

"O-come-on-stop!" I said hardly breathing.

"What's in it for me?" He asked.

"Stop-Draco-please-you're-hurting-me-DRACO- MY-RIB!"

Draco let go of her and lay her on the floor. I let go of him and was holding my right rib. I looked at him and he looked as if he just killed someone. 'Oh fuck! I'm such a fucking idiot!'

"Oh my God, I'm so sorry Hermione! I hope I didn't hurt you; that much." He said his face full of regret; especially his eyes.

"Draco it's ok. Don't worry." With that I got up.

We kept walking until we bumped into someone who surprised the both of us. It was Professor Lumme. She had a disappointed look on her face.

"Ah, there you two are. We arrived at school and noticed you weren't with us. Well we were very worried of course but I brought along a head boy/girl carriage. Well, please proceed to the carriage and back to school now off you go." And with a pop she was gone. We got into the carriage, and sat there for about ten minutes when Draco spoke.

"Are you sure you're ok?" he said

"Yeah, I just hit my rib when I was packing yesterday. Nothing to worry about."

For the remainder of the ride there was a silent environment. When we arrived at the castle a house elf gave us our instructions. We headed for our rooms. As soon as I was in my room I took out the computer box and read the instructions on how to set it up. I soon understood what I was doing and put the computer together. I turned it on and waited for the main screen to appear. For a while I played around with the screen when a window popped up. Then she read it.

LiVe FoR tHe MoMeNt says: hey it's me.

I had no clue who this was so I decided to talk anyways and find out.

VeLvEt RoSe says: and who might 'me' be?

LiVe FoR tHe MoMeNt says: lol sorry it's the guy you met today at the computer store. My name is Jeffery Todd but call me J.T. and what may your name be Miss?

'lol what the hell is that suppose to mean?' she thought to herself.

VeLvEt RoSe says: Oh ok, well hello my name is Hermione.

LiVe FoR tHe MoMeNt says: well I really should explain how you got an e- mail and how I have that e-mail huh?

VeLvEt RoSe says: yeah it would be nice to know.

LiVe FoR tHe MoMeNt says: ok, well when u went to do whatever you did, I programmed your computer to have an e-mail and this, which is called msn messenger. I made up an e-mail for you and fixed your screen name and then added me to your list I hope your not mad.

VeLvEt RoSe says: no, no of course I'm not mad actually I'm quiet grateful, because I wanted to get this on my computer.

LiVe FoR tHe MoMeNt says: cool, hey if you want right click on the little green person and then press open and go to chat rooms, you can find other people to add to your list. Well I gotta go luv ya buh bye.

VeLvEt RoSe says: bye.

Ithen did as I was told and went to a chat room. I entered and just sat there and watched the people talk. Just then another little screen popped up.

With that Hermione logged off and collapsed on her bed and with one last thought crossing her mind then fell peacefully asleep, and that one thought that crossed her mind was this was the best day of the returning to school that she has ever had.
