It all began with a dare

Chapter 5- Mix Up!

It's been an odd week for Hermione Granger, it seems where ever she went, and she could sense a particular blonde right on her trail. At first she shook off the thought that Draco turned into her stalker, but as the days go on, it became too obvious that is what he was.

She couldn't stand it anymore and whenever she needed to go somewhere she would always ask Harry or Ron to accompany her. They don't ask her why, knowing Hermione always has her reasons. Today was not an exception, after Arithmancy Ron and Harry went and 'picked up' Hermione before heading for double potions together.

As usual Snape was in a bad mood, after 50 points taken off (from Gryffindor of course) they were told that today they would be making a sense-losing potion and Hermione was paired up with Lavender. Not wanting to hear her partner blab on about which colour lip-gloss was most attractive, Hermione decided to do the potion on her own. After finishing the potion, which turned a hazy deep blue, she poured out its contents into to goblets and went to pack away the spare ingredients.

When she came back, Lavender has already drunk her portion of the potion and was nowhere to be seen, probably went off and joins some people in the class bumping into walls, thought Hermione.

"Miss Granger, I would appreciate it if you would follow instructions and drink your potion after you have finished making it, 20 points from Gryffindor!" barked Snape

"Yes Professor," She answered, and took a look at her goblet, before gulping down the contents. Immediately Hermione felt dizzy and dropped her empty goblet, which landed with a loud clash. She looked around and everything was just swirls of colour.

"Hermione, wake up!" She opened her eyes, and was staring into Harry's eyes. "I think you mistook me for a chair" he said gently, not trying to startle her.

Hermione jumped up from Harry's lap and apologized, "uhmm, so what happened Harry?" she asked, blushing madly.

"Well I'm not really sure, but I think it was the potion acting up, my effects started to wear off only a few minutes ago." He answered, with a tinge of red coming across his cheeks as well.

After class the trio walked out of the dungeons to get to their next class.

"Oh Draco darling, don't leave me please! I love you honey bear! Wait for me!" someone rushed passed them chasing a blonde hair boy.

"Must be that Pug Face Parkinson! Serious, for once I actually pity that stupid Ferret!" laughed Ron.

"Ron, that was not Pansy!" said Hermione nervously, "It was Lavender!"
