Chapter 12

Ron refused to come out from the dormitory, he didn't even eat. And if Ron Weasley refuses to eat, it's NOT a good thing. Hermione had to hang out with Harry all day, and she was getting annoyed because of his talk about 'how to hit on girls', because he had some really strange ideas. She was sitting in a sofa, reading, when he sat down beside her.

"Hermione, do you think I'm ugly?" She looked up, surprised.

"No, you look good, why?"

"Well, every girl I talk to looks at me like I am. It's getting a little depressing." Hermione grinned.

"I don't think it has to do with your look. It's your image, Harry."

"Huh?"

"You try too hard, you're not yourself. You should try to talk about normal stuff." He looked at her like she was crazy.

"But like what?"

"Talk about quiddich for example." He smiled.

"I'm good at that." He looked around and walked over to Ginny, who was sitting in a chair alone. She sighed when she saw him.

"Not you again! Harry, I don't want to make out with you right now!" Harry looked hurt for a while, then he smiled again.

"Do you want to talk about something else? Have you seen how ugly the new hufflepuff-seeker is?"

"He's really funny and sweet Harry, and I think he's cute. Sorry but I'm going out now, see you later." She walked out, and Harry looked angry. He walked back to Hermione, who was laughing at him.

"Stop laughing, it's not funny!"

"Sorry, you just...anyway, I'm going to bed, I'm tired. Goodnight!" She gave him a hug and ran up to bed.

Ron came to eat breakfast the next morning, but he looked depressed.

"Hey Ron, are you okay?" Hermione asked him, but he shook his head.

"How is the daddy today?" Malfoy asked him with a grin when he walked past the table. He didn't probably know that Sandra had dumped him...Ron didn't understand that though, so he got really pissed off. He took his wand and shouted a spell at Malfoy, who immediately fell to the floor.

"Daddyyyyy! I want my daddyyyy!!!" He shouted like a two-year-old. He started to cry and put his thumb in his mouth. "Evil Draco, evil Draco!" He started to hit himself with his other and. People started to laugh at him, and Ron walked away. Sandra ran after him. Good, maybe they could work things out. She turned to Malfoy again, Harry was now feeding him, the same way you feed a little baby. People started to laugh louder, and finally Professor McGonagall walked over to them. She released Malfoy from the spell and pulled him up on his legs. He had porridge around his mouth and he looked confused. When he realised what he had done, he walked away quickly, blushing.

"Are you coming to the party tonight, Hermione?" Harry asked her on the herbology lesson. She nodded. Hopefully Derek would be there, she hadn't seen him in a long time.

"What about you Ron? Are you coming?"

"I don't know yet. Maybe." He was still looking sad.

"Ron, what did Sandra say? Did you talk?" He nodded.

"She wanted to talk, tonight at the party. But I don't know..."

"You have to talk to her Ron, you're crazy about her! You have to work things out!"

"I know, you don't have to remind me all the time!" He spat and turned around, he suddenly became very busy with a plant beside him. Hermione sighed and continued to clean the leaves on her own plant.

Later that night, she was on her way to the Great Hall when she heard a noise behind her. She turned around, but the corridor was empty.

"Hello there beautiful," a voice said. She turned around again, but nobody was there.

"Is it you Harry?" She said with a grin.

"I'm NOT Harry! He's too goody-goody, that jerk," the voice spat, and she shivered. She started to walk again, this time quicker, but something grabbed her arm. She tried to shake it off but she wasn't strong enough.

"Let go of me!"

"You're sexy when you're scared, did you know that?" She tried to scream, but something invisible was pressed against her mouth. What the hell?

"I wouldn't scream if I were you," the voice whispered, and she shivered again. She felt something, it felt like a hand, hold her waist and force her to the floor.

"Hey mudblood, what are you doing?" Someone screamed from the other end of the corridor, and she felt the thing let go of her. Malfoy walked over to her. She was shaking, but he didn't see that. " Why are you lying on the floor? Are you washing it?" He laughed at his own joke, but then he saw that she was really white. She sat up, and he sat down beside her.

"Something forced me to the floor, something invisible...or someone...I couldn't scream, and I...I..." She looked at him, he was looking confused.

"Granger, I think you should calm down," he said with a grin.

"I'm serious! I'm telling you, it felt like it was trying to...to..."

"Are you sure that it wasn't Harry in his invisib..."

"Malfoy! What are you doing here?" Derek said, he had just walked up to them. Malfoy stared at him for a while, then he flew up, suddenly angry.

"It was you, wasn't it? You tried to rape her again! I thought I told you not to hurt her!" He punched Derek right in the face, and Hermione gasped. Derek was quick, he punched back.

"Guys! What are you doing? Stop it!" She screamed and tried to pull them apart, but they continued to fight.
