Chapter Six
Hermione sighed as she pushed open the doors to the front hall. 'What just happened? Why am I feeling like this? What's happening to me?' Hermione wondered as she hurried up to Gryffindor Tower. She looked at her watch. 'I've got 15 minutes until Astronomy! Oh no!' she dumped her things in her room and grabbed her book and ran toward the North Tower. She was running a little when WHAM. She smacked right into someone. She stood up and brushed herself off.
"So sorry!" she mumbled. She looked up and was face to face with Harry. Hermione looked at him, suddenly feeling awkward.
"Hello, Hermione. Sorry bout that." He said smiling and stepped out of her way. She looked at him, confused.
"Um, no problem. See you later, Harry." She said and continued running. Harry watched her until she disappeared.
'I wonder why I am so worried about her and Malfoy. I hope she's alright.' He thought and continued walking.
Hermione arrived at the North Tower just in time. She sat down and opened her book just as the Professor started to speak.

After Astronomy, Hermione walked back to Gryffindor Tower exhausted. She muttered the password and went straight to her room. Tomorrow was Saturday. She didn't have to wake up so early- she was VERY thankful for that. She dropped her books and wandered over to her bed and plopped down not even bothering to change. Hermione fell asleep almost instantly in a peaceful, dreamless sleep.
Draco's POV
I watched Granger go through the doors into the school. I wonder what is going on with her. and also what is going on with me. I don't seem to be myself anymore. Geez, I can't even think about calling her a Mudblood, let alone say it! I'm losing it. maybe I should call this whole deal off. I can't though. I already know that Cho is breaking. She can't take much more. I think I can endure Granger for the time being. I just have to avoid her if it's at all possible. Yes, that's it. Just avoid Granger but still make it look like she's my girlfriend- it's so perfect.

(Next Day)
Hermione woke to the sound of something tapping on the window. She rolled over and looked at her clock (a/n: okay, someone mentioned to me that clocks & electronic devices do not work at Hogwarts, but they do in my story. k? k.). The clock read 6:45am. Hermione groaned. 'This my day to sleep in. I must catch up on all the sleep I have missed. Maybe if I just ignore it, it will go away.' she thought hopefully. Instead of going away though, the tapping grew more insistent. Hermione groaned again and silently cursed owl post. She rolled off the bed and picked herself off the ground and walked toward the window.
At the window was a brown owl she had never seen before. She opened the window and the owl flew in. Hermione scowled and untied the parchment attached to its leg. The owl then took off again through the open window and Hermione snapped it shut behind it. She untied the parchment and read:
Hermione,
Hello! It's Harry. it's a Hogsmeade Saturday and I was wondering if you and Mal. I mean DRACO want to walk around with Cho and me. I think it's about time that we all got used to each other. Sorry I've been so weird about everything. Think of this as a way to apologize. Hope you come! See you soon!
-Harry
Hermione smacked herself on the forehead. Of course! It's a Hogsmeade Saturday! 'I forgot all about it! Why though, did he have wake me up now! We don't leave until 11:00! Now I won't be able to fall asleep again. Oh well, might as well get ready and go eat breakfast and stuff.' Hermione thought and went over to her trunk.
'Well, since we it's a weekend I can wear what I want.' Hermione went through her trunk and pulled out a white short sleeve shirt, jean shorts, and a jean jacket. She walked out of the portrait hole and headed toward the great hall.
Draco's POV
I was RUDELY awakened by a tapping at my window. I groaned and rolled over. There was an owl, a brown owl at the window. I grumbled again and looked at the clock. 6:30AM. It really figures. If an owl ever wanted to deliver a letter, it delivers it at one of the rare occasions that I am ASLEEP! I trudged over to the window groggily and ran into my trunk and stubbed my toe. I muttered a few cuss words under my breath and proceeded to the window. I opened the window and the owl flew in. It waited patiently as I stumbled over to it and took off the parchment. I read the letter. It said:
Malfoy,
As you know, it's a Hogsmeade Saturday. I feel bad for getting on 'Mione's case about going out with you. As an apology, it would be er. nice if you would walk around with Cho and I today. Hermione will be coming also.
-Harry
I looked at the letter again. So Potter wanted me to walk around with Cho and him at Hogsmeade? Granger is coming too? Well, sounds okay I suppose. I had totally forgotten it was a Hogsmeade Saturday though. I went over to my trunk and pulled out khaki cargo pants and a green striped shirt. I debated whether or not to slick my hair back, and finally just decided not to. It looks better when it's not anyway. I walked out of the portrait and headed toward the great hall.
Hermione walked into the Great Hall and looked over at the Gryffindor table. She saw Harry sitting at the far end and went to go sit next to him. She turned to him and smiled.
"Hey Harry! Thanks for inviting me to go around Hogsmeade with you and Cho today. I'm sure it'll be fun. I'm glad you're okay with Draco and me now." Hermione said smiling putting a reassuring hand on Harry's arm. Harry looked at Hermione's hand and blushed turning to his breakfast. Hermione dropped her hand and went to eat her breakfast. She smiled a little because of Harry's blush. She looked over at the Slytherin table and make eye contact with Draco. Hermione smiled at him and turned back to breakfast.
