Chapter Six: Draco's Story 2: Crazy For This Girl
.:*:.
I lay, sprawled on the floor, when Hermione's letter stuffed in my pocket. Pansy was glaring at me from above.
"Get up!" she said angrily, without helping me up. "What the heck was that about?"
"I don't know. But you know Weasley." I tried to shrug it off. Pansy eyed me.
"I suppose you're right. Why did he make a comment on Granger though?" she asked. I shrugged again.
"They just broke up a while ago... you know." I shrugged again, then I hurried down the corner, with Crabbe and Goyle behind me. Pansy was too slow to follow us. I went to class, where I pretended to get incredibly ill and I was allowed to go to the Hospital Wing. But, of course, I didn't go there.
I sat in the Slytherin Common Room. Missing classes would be costly, for N.E.W.T.s were coming up soon. I didn't care at the moment though. I stared at the envelope. It was already teared open, and I knew Weasley must have found it and opened it. Now it was my turn to read it.

It wasn't snowing in Hogsmeade, but it was still cold. I had my hands in my pockets and my scarf around my neck. I was alone again. I looked around, but I couldn't see Hermione anywhere.
I looked left, right, behind me, around the corner. She wasn't anywhere. And I was sure she wouldn't be waiting for me in a shop or store. I frowned. Then I finally understood.
Hermione must have not wanted to send it, but Weasley gave it to me anyway. He must have known I'd go and not find Hermione there. Then he must have thought I'd hate her after she didn't come. I laughed to myself. I couldn't do that. I'm too crazy for this girl.
I decided to go back to Crabbe and Goyle, who were with Pansy. Pansy was still convinced I was in love with her. No offense but she can get pretty annoying. Anyway, I sat with them in Three Broomsticks and made up lies about why I was gone so long.

"Granger?"
"Draco?" Hermione whirled around and stared at me in shock, but then her look softened, but she still looked nervous and worried.
I had gone to the same spot we were last time and I found her there- surprisingly.
"I got your letter." I said smoothly.
"What?" she said, staring at me, but I interrupted her before she could say anything else.
"Your boyfriend gave it to me." she shut her mouth, looking at the ground.
"How did Ron get it?" she whispered. I shrugged.
"Who knows." She suddenly gasped, looked over at me fearfully, then she turned away and started to walk in a fast pace.
"Hey!" I yelled after her. "Where are you going?" I started to follow her.
"Ron must have found it the other night after my dream-" she stopped short, and that was when I grabbed her on the shoulder and whipped her around.
"What dream? What are you talking about?"
"I had this dream and I must have been sleep walking. I went down the stairs with the letter and woke up when Ron came down stairs.... I must have dropped the letter." She said, glaring at me. I rolled my eyes.
"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard."
She looked even more shocked with me now. Then she just spun around again without saying a word and ran back to the entrance of Hogsmeade. I sighed again, shook my head, and followed her, but she was long gone by the time I got back to Hogwarts.
