Chapter Thirteen – I Was Wrong

Hermione took out a piece of parchment, a bottle of ink and her quill. She dipped her quill in the ink and started writing to her mother.

Mum,

            Why is Cole here? He's following me everywhere I go! He wants me back! I can only see him as a friend!! LET HIM LEAVE HOGWARTS! PLEASE!

Hermione finished and tied it around Porky's leg and he flew away. She watched Porky fly away with her letter and sighed. Suddenly, she heard someone coming it. She twirled around and saw Cole. Cole half-smiled at her and went to the Boys' Dorm. Hermione suddenly felt sorry for him. After all, she does still see him as a FRIEND.

            'You can't pity him, Hermione! He's following you around! You can't have privacy!' she scolded herself.

Hermione left the Common Room and wandered around the hallways, when she suddenly heard someone speak.

            "Did you hear about that new kid Cole and Malfoy?" somebody asked

            "No. But I heard something about Cole still cares for Hermione"

            "Really?"

            "Yeah. I saw him walk past him muttering something about friends and Hermione"

            "I heard someone from Gryffindor that they were friends before…"

            "I heard the same thing. Somebody said, I think it was Harry, I forgot. Anyway, Cole didn't mean the things Cole did to Hermione"

            "Yeah. I heard that one too. I think Cole was just too excited to see Hermione"

Hermione felt tears form in her eyes and ran back to the Common Room. She barged in the Boys' Dorm, even though she knew she wasn't supposed to.

            "Hermione?" Cole said, startled

            "Oh my God, Cole! I'm so sorry! I know you didn't mean those things you did to me! I'm so pathetic!!" Hermione bawled

            "You're not pathetic Hermione. I was just happy to see you again. I'm just afraid that Draco person will hurt you, I guess. I know I was wrong. But I forgive you. I'm sorry too Hermione"

            "I forgive you…I forgive you…" she told him and the two of them hugged

Sorry for the extremely short chapter! I was in a rush and I was stuck on what Chapter Thirteen should be, and I just came back from my trip, that's why it's so short and I'm lost of ideas. I'll think of some! Chapter Fourteen should be up by sometime…

And I agree with you, this is a pathetic chapter (I think…for me at least)
