CHAPTER TEN
Detention
Hermione glared at Harry as they made their way to Snape's office. Though they didn't say a word to each other, the tension was very strong between them. Why was Hermione acting this way? Hermione was actually starting to wonder the same thing.
"You'll be cleaning out my inventory of supplies tonight as your detention. Potter, you start in the back, and Granger, you start in the front. I'll be back at 11:00 to check on you. Whatever you don't finish tonight, you'll finish tomorrow. Now get to work." He said, leaving the room.
"What is your problem?" asked Harry as soon as Snape was out of hearing range.
"What do you mean by that?" she asked, peering around a shelf at him.
"I mean that as soon as I mentioned the fact that we're moving a little too fast, you come up and say that we should only be friends."
"Oh...That." She replied.
"If you give me a good reason, I'll leave you alone. If you can't answer, well, plan on being without me as a friend until you can come up with one."
"I'm afraid, ok?"
"Afraid of what and why?" he asked.
"You. It was the way you looked at Malfoy, that night we were coming back from the pitch." She said, standing up.
"Like what?"
"Like you were gonna' kill him, and he hadn't even said anything to you yet."
"Hermione, it's nothing new that I glare at him like that. I might look like I wanna' kill him, but I never would."
"I know that...That's not why at all. It was the look on your face. That's the way Viktor stared at me last summer before he..." she trailed off, as if it were painful for her to say.
"Oh...Hermione, you know I would never-"
"I know, and I see that now. I was just mad at myself today. I didn't know how to apologize to you without making myself seem foolish."
"You could never look foolish to me." He said, taking a step closer to her, not really knowing what to do.
"It's ok, Harry. I'm not mad anymore." She said, wrapping her arms around is neck, and staring deep into his eyes. Harry leaned down and kissed her passionately. He loved her so much, and she felt the same way about him.
Just then, Snape walked in. ("What the Devil is going on in here?! Detention is supposed to be a punishment!")
"Professor...um...uh..." Hermione stuttered.
"Get out, I don't want to see you again, not until after vacation. Now go!" he snapped, pointing at the door. Harry and Hermione ran for the door in fear of him hexing them. On their way out, they ran into Malfoy again. Harry sighed and got ready for the unnecessary insults.
"Well, well, welly-welly-well..." he said. Hermione and Harry looked at him like he was insane, but he paid no mind to their glares. "If it isn't the two lovebirds. Gallivanting around the school AGAIN, Potter? Seeing as to how you're such a "brilliant" wizard, I wouldn't expect for you to fall for a Mudbloo-" Harry didn't even let him finish. He punched him in the nose, with all his might. A loud CRACK echoed in the long corridor.
"Never again." Was all Harry said. Malfoy got to his feet and ran towards the infirmary. Harry looked over at Hermione, who had a dumbstruck look on her face. That was the first time anyone had broken one of Malfoy's bones so quickly. "Well Love, suppose we should be heading back." He said, taking her hand.
Hermione shook off her disbelief and walked with him to the corridor, where they both fell asleep on the couch in front of the fireplace.
A.N. Ok so they got back together big deal. It's only Christmas, there's definitely more to come. Was this a good chapter? Let me know.
