Hermione's POV
Was Malfoy actually talking to her instead of insulting her? Hermione was surprised, but assumed he was just guilty about what had happened that morning.
She wondered if she had made the right decision about going out with Harry, sure he was good enough in every way, but was he seriously the one she wanted to be with?
Hermione slowly wandered back to the castle, she wanted to read Hogwarts: A History over again.
She walked to her dorm and ran upstairs. She took out one of her muggle CDs of Linkin Park and stuck it in her magicked stereo. Then she cranked it up to the loudest volume, and went to drown out her confusion in her book.
Draco's POV
Draco was sitting in front of the fire trying to finish a book when Hermione walked in. She seemed so lost and confused that she didn't even notice him there.
"Hey Grang.." was all Draco got out before Hermione disappeared behind her door.
Draco sighed, he couldn't concentrate, everywhere he went, he saw her.
He was deep in thought when he heard a rapping on the portrait. He growled and stayed put.
"Go away!" He yelled, but the person on the other side continued banging on the portrait.
"Mister Malfoy!" Draco heard the portrait calling him. "Please open the door, I'm afraid he is going to tear the canvas soon if you don't!"
Draco finally picked his bottom up the sofa and opened the door.
"Potter." Draco said curtly, nodding stiffly.
"Malfoy." Harry acknowledged him. "I'm here to see my girlfriend."
"Girlfriend? I don't see any of your girlfriends in here, try looking down the hall," Draco smirked and moved to slam the portrait in Potter's face.
"I am here to see Hermione," Potter growled with his teeth clenched.
"You must be dreaming, who in the right mind would go out with you?" Draco snickered. "I thought Granger was the smartest girl on campus, guess not, eh?"
"Just bloody move out of the way!"
"Suit yourself," Draco pointed in the direction of Hermione's room.
"Granger going out with Potter? Why didn't I get the memo?" Draco muttered to himself.
Harry's POV
Harry walked up the stairs to Hermione's room. He was almost deafened by the music blasting from inside. He walked into the room and turned the stereo volume down.
Hermione turned around, seemingly ready to yell at him.
"WHAT THE--oh, hi Harry, I thought it was Malfoy."
Harry knelt down next to her.
"Watcha doing?"
"Oh, just trying to read."
"Really? It looks like you're doodling to me," Harry said glancing at the piece of parchment on her desk.
Hermione blush. "Oh, I got tired of reading."
"You wanna go for a walk?"
"Uh, I'd rather stay in my room actually." Hermione stated.
"Could I stay with you?" Harry draped his arm over her shoulder and leaned against her.
"Could I have some time alone, please?"
"Is there something wrong?" Harry asked, puzzled. He slowly removed his arm.
"No, I'm fine."
"Ok, just checking on you," Harry gave her a hug and pulled her in for a kiss, but she pushed away.
"Harry, please go, I'll meet you down at dinner later. I promise ok?" Hermione avoided Harry's eyes.
"Oh." Harry looked disappointed.
"I really need to get back to reading," Hermione's eyes strayed down to her book.
"Okay, see you at dinner then." Harry gave her a kiss on the cheek and left.
