The days passed slowly yet again, nothing eventful happening until one chilly Saturday at the end of September. Hermione only had her private class with Rowena that day, so she was sitting outside with Harry by the lake for a while. They talked about their private lessons, regular classes, & of course, made fun of Snape. Suddenly, they heard a very strange bird calling from the Forbidden Forest.
"What was that?" Hermione asked.
"No idea," said Harry. "Let's find out though."
The two cautiously walked towards the Forest, trying to escape both the Whomping Willow & the prying eyes of the Caretaker, Argus Filch. They looked up in the tree with the mysterious bird to find, not a bird, but Crookshanks! He was high up in the tree, probably 70 or 80 feet up.
"Crookshanks! You stupid cat! What the heck are you doing up there?" Hermione said frantically. She turned to Harry. "How on Earth are we going to get her down?"
"Hermione, I seem to recall that you don't have a good memory in stressful situations, but must we constantly have to remind you that you are a witch?" Harry answered jokingly.
"Oh yeah," Hermione said. "Accio Crookshanks!"
Crookshanks flew out of the tree directly into Hermione's arms.
"That was great Hermione!" Harry congratulated her.
"Why thank you," Hermione said in a mock snooty voice. "Would thy kind sir be able to accompany thee to the castle, by chance?"
"Of course," Harry said, laughing. "Come on."
Harry led Hermione to the castle & as far as he could go without missing the turnoff for his classroom. Hermione left Crookshanks to bask in the sun by the lake while they were at their lessons.
"Hello again," Rowena said cheerfully when Hermione arrived in the classroom.
"Hey Rowena," Hermione said.
"What's wrong this time?" Rowena asked.
"How did you know?" Hermione asked, shocked that she could tell that something was bugging her.
"Well, two reasons. One, I've been around for a thousand years, what do you expect, & two, that look on your face is the absolute give away."
"Well, anyways, I do have a problem. It's men. I really, really like Harry, but he is too infatuated with Cho Chang to even notice me! I don't understand. What do I do, oh, Merlin, what do I do?" Hermione asked pleadingly.
"Hmm.that is a tough problem. I really don't know what you can do, other than just be with him, & care for him. He's not a total bird-brain, he'll be able to tell soon enough anyways that Cho isn't interested & he'll have to move on." Rowena answered.
"Thanks!" Hermione said.
"Now, onto today's lesson. I'm going to show you an ancient spell, one that was created by an old Spanish wizard centuries before even I was born. It's totally forgotten nowadays, I'm the only one that knows of it, though I'm highly suspicious of Dumbledore, I think he might know it. It's a spell that you cast on yourself once, then you will be able to become invisible whenever you choose. While you choose to be invisible, nothing will be able to touch you, unlike when you wear an invisibility cloak. Let's practice without the wands first. The incantation is Invicto Invisibilidad."
After practicing several times, Rowena agreed to let Hermione perform the spell.
"Invicto Invisibilidad!" Hermione said confidently, while pointing her wand to herself. Suddenly, a tingling feeling shot through her body, then faded slowly.
"Very well done!" Rowena said excitedly. "Now, to actually become invisible, you just have to want to be invisible & you will be. To stop being invisible, just think about being visible again, & it will happen. You can try it now." "Okay," Hermione said, a bit frightened. She concentrated on being invisible, then the tingling sensation came back, lingered for a while, then disappeared, along with the rest of her appearance. She felt light, & could move as fast as lightning, as she was almost nothing but a spirit now that she was invisible & couldn't be touched. She could hear Rowena giggling with joy because she had successfully done the spell.
"Okay Hermione. You need to come back now, because the class is over now," Rowena said after a while.
Hermione reluctantly became visible again, & bid Rowena goodbye.
*Hey Hermione* She heard in her head.
Hey Harry. How were your lessons? Hermione asked. She was going to take Rowena's advice & be more caring towards Harry.
*Oh, they were okay.* Harry replied. *I have a question. Hermione, will you be my girlfriend?*
YES YES YES!! HE FINALLY GAVE UP CHO! Hermione thought. I'd love to! She answered.
*Thanks* Harry said. *I'm glad I have someone to talk to now. I was getting a little lonely, what with Ron always being off with Kat, & I didn't want to be bugging you with my life if you didn't care.*
You never bug me Harry. Never have, never will. Hermione answered back. What do ya say we go bring good ol' Draco in to our little conversation & talk to him for a while.
*Sure.* Harry said.
@I'm way ahead of you.@ Draco said.
How do you do that? Hermione said.
@Do what?@ Draco asked, confused.
You always come in right as we start to talk about you!
@Oh that. I have my ways.@ He said sneakily.
They talked the rest of the night, then eventually had to go up to sleep.
