Hermione stretched and got up. Crookshanks purred a good morning and rubbed around her legs nearly tripping her up. Hermione emptied some cat biscuits into a bowl and went to get dressed.

She grabbed her books when she was finished. Lavender and the others were still asleep so Hermione crept out the dorm and went to the library to recheck her facts for history of magic.
Meanwhile...

Harry woke to the sound of his dorm mates talking.

"Oh god shut up!" yelled Harry putting his pillows over his head.

The other boys shut up at once.

They left quickly leaving Harry to get dressed.

Harry got up and dressed glad to have the room to him self for once. He found a piece of scrap parchment on the dresser next to him. On it was a note in one of the twin's messy scrawl.

It read

Hey Harry, We've got some Quidditch practises to sort out with you. Meet us later. (I've got some stuff to talk to you bout more personal though) Fred & George

He gathered together his books and decided to skip breakfast. He walked to the library and found Hermione and Cho sitting at a private table surrounded by autobiographies.

"Hey girls." said Harry as he joined them.

"Hey Harry. Where's Ron?" asked Hermione.

"Don't know don't care." said Harry simply as he sat down next to Cho.

"Oh don't tell me you haven't made up," sighed Hermione as she looked up a page of facts in her book.

"You took the words right out of my mouth," said Harry setting out all his stuff.

"Oh all right I'll go apologise for you," said Hermione gathering together her things before getting up to leave.

"Thanks Mione." smiled Harry.

"See you in transfiguration Harry. Bye Cho." said Hermione before she left the couple.

"So Cho how are you?" asked Harry shyly graffiting his parchment cover.

"Fine. But I really missed you." flirted Cho ignoring her homework as she ran her manicured fingers up Harry's built up chest.

"I missed you too," whispered Harry as their faces moved closer.

At that moment Malfoy appeared with a usual smug look on his face.

"Well, well, well if it isn't the happy couple." he smirked.

"Oh shit." muttered Harry before he turned to look at Malfoy.

"Excuse us a minute Cho," said Harry cheerfully before he grabbed Malfoy by the shirt and dragged him to another set of books.

"Trying to cause trouble Malfoy?" asked Harry.

"Who me? Now why would I want to do that?" asked Malfoy trying to look innocent and angelic.

"Oh come off it Malfoy. Just piss off and leave us alone. Anyone'd think you like Cho or that you were Jealous." smirked Harry dropping Malfoy to the ground and walking back to where Cho was sat.

The bell rang for first lesson and Cho got up to go to Muggle studies.

"Oh sorry about that Cho. You know how Malfoy gets when his girlfriend is in Italy," said Harry picking up his things.

"Yeah. Anyway can we meet up tonight to catch up on where we left off?" asked Cho her almond eyes twinkling.

"Erm sure. Meet me at the front entrance after lunch and we'll take it from there." smiled Harry writing a reminder on the back of his hand.

"Yeah see you then Harry." smiled Cho mischievously before she walked out the library.

Harry sighed and walked to transfiguration deep in dreamy thought.

Hermione waved her hand in front of Harry's dreamy face and nudged Ron who she'd Apologised with for Harry that morning.

"What's up with him?" asked Hermione.

Ron looked down on to the piece of spare parchment that Harry was writing on.

"Look for your self." said Ron pointing to the parchment.

Hermione looked at the parchment and groaned rolling her eyes.

"For once in his life he's happy," sighed Ron.

Harry wrote more though his friends didn't notice till he'd finished.

"What the hell? Harry I don't like her she's a gossiping busy body for Merlin's sake!" exclaimed Ron in a whisper so McGonagall wouldn't hear.

"And like a sophisticated girl like me would love a joker like him!" said Hermione in a similar tone.

Harry grinned mischievously.

Hermione blushed. Both boys knew she liked him.

A cane cracked on a desk and the three looked up to see McGonagall looking at them darkly. Her oak cane rested on their desk.

"Potter, granger and Weasley you each have cost Gryffindor 20 points for ignoring my instructions and whispering amongst yourselves." roared McGonagall.

The Slytherins sniggered while the Gryffindors murmured their annoyance.

McGonagall picked up her cane and strode to the front of the class.

Hermione copied down what McGonagall had wrote on the board and made sure Ron and Harry did too.

Harry and the others made their way to potions moaning about McGonagall's bad mood.

"I can't believe she took so many points away," groaned Ron miserably.

Harry tried to contain his laughter as seamus tried to open Ron's bag so all Ron's books would fall out.

Before Seamus could finish pulling the zip the last inch Ron turned round and batted him off.

"What the hell were you doing that for?" exclaimed Ron hurriedly zipping his bag before the books fell out.

Harry couldn't hold it anymore and laughed along with dean who'd also been witnessing the joke.

Seamus laughed nervously before sprinting the rest of the way to potions.

"Come back here Seamus! That's it! Harry take my bag I need to teach Prankster boy a lesson," exclaimed Ron throwing his bag at Harry before sprinting down the Corridor, dodging people coming opposite ways
