A/N: Wow, it's been a LOOOOONG time. I had to reread it (wow! I'm great!
JK) and that was very mean of me to leave it off there. Oh well, all's
forgiven, right?
I've decided to respond to reviews since you've all been really great. Yeah, I know, give me the Cheesy Award.
Vi1: Ah, yes, you love me. Nice to know! lol. But if everyone were anime fans then we wouldn't sound all special and smart when we talk about them (people are impressed by the Japanese names. I don't know why. If the charries were named "Emanuel" or "Franco" they wouldn't. *shrugs*) Thank you!
t baby: Ooooo, a master of the art of bluntness! But fear not, it is continuing. Hope you enjoy!
Sarah: I believe I've thanked you, but I'll do it again: thanks! I hope you're still reading! *crosses fingers*
maNic aNgsT: Will do! Thanks!
Ardent Entity: Hey, you're as bad as I am about updating! Cool! Sorry about the wait and I look forward to your next chapter! *winkwink*
Ever: Hooray for you! I also am an active worshipper of D/Hr. I thought your review was hilarious and I hope you'll leave another one soon! Thanks!
Taintless: Yes, Draco is sexy. I think I'll describe his specific sexinesses later, just for the hell of it. Thank you for reviewing and you should update soon too!
Hirilnara: I still hold that you're crazy, but I love ya anyway. That poster was outrageous!! I'm gonna hang it on my wall (as soon as I can figure out how to make my printer print life-size). Thanks for reviewing and I also look forward to your next chapter!
*Oh no, oh no, oh no!* was all that was running through Hermione's mind. *We're dead. We're dead. See, there's the grim reaper!*
Snape surveyed the scene closely. His favorite student was on the ground unconscious and his least favorite student was hiding behind a red bush that used to be the Weasley boy. The too-smart-for-her-own-good girl was in the middle of all of it bouncing on her heels nervously. *Obviously* Snape thought to himself, *The shrub and his friend tried to attack Malfoy from behind his back but Draco was too quick for them. But the poor boy was unfortunate in receiving a strong blast from that hot-headed witch, therefore he was the victim of all this.*
Satisfied with this explanation Snape's mind moved onto more important matters and his favorite job perk: dealing out punishment. "Ok, everyone needs to return to their common rooms except for you three. Mr. Malfoy's obviously going nowhere as well." Slightly disgusted by his joke and also at the close proximity of them he backed up a step.
*Why am I still here??! I didn't do ANYTHING!!!* Panicked Hermione.
"It'll 75 points from Gryffindor and you two will be serving detention with me for the next month." He turned on Hermione. "And you Miss Granger," he hissed through his teeth, "Will await my return in my room while I bring this poor boy to the infirmary." Snape turned on his heel, muttered a spell and floated Draco down the hall.
When Snape's greasy head had finally disappeared Hermione started to walk towards his classroom. Harry cut her off (Ron was still struggling with his atrocious "facial" hair).
"You aren't going to argue?! You're not going to say ANYTHING!?"
"Why should I, Harry Potter. It's not Professor Snape's fault he saw what he saw, it's yours. You and Ron, whose eyebrows are now bushier than my hair, have been planning this and planning this. Is this what you wanted Harry? Did this turn out exactly how you imagined it would? Or is this not EXACTLY what I told you would happen?" She was screaming now. "IT'S NOT! IT'S WORSE! Now, not only did you two numb-skulls manage to lose points for Gryffindor in the first WEEK of school and receive a month's detention with SNAPE," now quieter, "But you also managed to get me in trouble, Harry, maybe even worse than you. I did nothing but try to stop this from happening, and I'm being punished for it, for caring for you and Ron. So now I'm not, I'm done. Good bye."
She walked passed him without even a backward glance. Harry was so dumbfounded that he didn't even try to stop her. After standing there for about a minute he decided to take his injured friend and both their injured egos to see Madam Pomfrey, fortunately without running into Snape.
When Hermione had shut that door she had lost all her strength and just wept. Knowing that Snape was on his way she made her way to a seat and tried her best to cover the red splotches. She was still a total mess when he came in, but it was no matter. She was getting zero sympathy.
"Miss Granger, stop sniffing! It's annoying." Snape started abruptly. "What you have done is cause for expulsion, but since I know dear Dumbledore would have none of that. . ."
"And what is it you think I've done?"
"Don't play innocent with me, girly! I know your capabilities and though I hate to admit it knocking an innocent boy unconscious is well within them!" He continued when she didn't deny it, "I also know that Madam Pomfrey has been quite shorthanded lately. Your addition to the infirmary is the straw that broke the camel's back. Since I regretfully DO know about your advanced potion and healing skills I am putting him in your charge."
"WHAT!?"
"I know it's quite generous of me to give out such a lax punishment. Personally, I'm quite appalled at my softness. But that is beside the point. The point is that you are now responsible for Mr. Malfoy's well- being and I hold you to taking this seriously. You may go see Poppy- errr, Madam Pomfrey now and get your instructions. Good day."
"But, but Prof-"
"I said "GOOD DAY"! Now unless you would prefer expulsion I suggest getting out. . . NOW!"
