Hermione entered the Gryffendor common room. She was walking slowly and
wasn't paying attention. In fact she hadn't even realized she had gotten to
the common room because as soon as she entered harry ran up to her and
stood there saying hi but she never answered. She was too busy in thought
about her conversation with Hireaki. "Why had he told me all that, if he
was seriously hiding why would he spill that to me?" Just then in the
middle of her thought she noticed Harry was standing there, waving his hand
in front of her face.
"Oh harry! Hi" she said nervously
"Hi, I've been waving my hand in your face for like ten minutes what's up?" Harry asked
"Oh its nothing, really, I'm fine. just.thinking about the homework for my next class, that's all." She lied hoping he'd buy it.
Harry stood there with a non-believing look on his face. He shook his thoughts free and moved onto another topic. "Hermione, there is something I have to talk to you." Harry looked very serious.
Hermione stood there for a while not questioning she had gotten lost in thought again.
"HERMIONE!" Harry shouted.
"Oh! Yea sorry, what it is Harry?" She said shaking out of her daze.
"Is it true you are hanging out with a Slyhtherin? I know it isn't really my business but it just isn't like you. You think of them as bad as I do of Malfoy." Harry asked half concerned and half not.
"Hanging out with? Who are you.?" She stopped mid-sentence realizing he was talking about Hireaki. "Hireaki? He. we haven't been 'hanging out' we. he just keeps accidentally bumping into me. He really needs to watch where he is going. Honestly that boy has no sense of direction can't even tell where a wall is." She would have continued her nervous babbling but harry stopped her.
"I don't want to hear about this boys directional disabilities. What I want to know is why you are constantly 'bumping' into this. this. Hireaki. person." Harry sort of glared at her trying to stare an honest answer out of her.
Hermione caught his glareand glared back. Angrily she shouted at him. " I don't care if you hold grudges against Malfoy, Harry, hell, I hate him too, but Hireaki hasn't been mean to me so I see no reason to be mean to him just for being a Slytherin." Harry's glare faded to a slightly hurt look. "You are being so rude Harry, I don't respect you for this." Hermione turned to leave the common room and head up to her dorm but harry grabbed her arm.
"I just wanted you to be careful, Hermione, you know the Slytherins, they are tricky, I don't want you getting into trouble." Harry's face was filled with worry and Hermione could tell.
She turned around and put her hand on her shoulder and got her face close to his. "Don't you think I can take care of myself? I'm just as old as you, but thank you for being concerned." She kissed his nose and went up to her dorm.
She walked into her dorm and would have sat on her bed but it already had someone on it.
" I don't know who you think you are but you better get off my bed." She said storming over to her bed. She jumped with surprise as she saw who I was.
"Shhh, please Hermione I have to talk to you." Hireaki was sitting on her bed looking very worried. " You can't tell anyone about who. what I am. Please they'd kick me out of school."
" Of course I wouldn't I promised I wouldn't, and I won't. You really shouldn't be here go on back to your dorm. You'll get caught if you stay here too long." She shooed him off her bed.
"Alright then." He stood grabbed his broom and jumped out the window.
Hermione stood at the window watching him as he flew around a corner of the castle. She went and sat on her bed. She lay on her pillow. She starred at the top of her four poster bed for a wile then slowly drifted off to sleep.
"Oh harry! Hi" she said nervously
