He found Hermione fell on her knees and catching for her breath. She felt so exhausted.

"Are you ok?" he asked, lending his hand on her.

"I'm ok, thanks for help," she said with surprise.

She didn't grabbed Malfoy's hands.

"I might stain your hands with mud" she said.

"Doesn't matter now" he said swiftly, regardless of what she is.

"Don't be a fool, Draco. Saw yourself? You are killing me"

He paused.

"Don't bother, your sorry is not enough," she said promptly.

Unexpectedly, Ron returned to the corridors and spotted Malfoy. He saw Hermione leaning on the floor.

"What are you doing here?" he said.

"Ron I-"she said but it was too late. Ron rushed up and punched Malfoy's face. Blood dripped from Malfoy's mouth. He wiped it out with his hands. Hermione stepped back at once, still gasping. She looked at his eyes. He wasn't the one she saw before, dull and empty eyes now turned to sparkle with white lights, showing full of hatred and anger.

Ron walked towards Draco, with his bloody hands. He clutched his fists again.

"How dare you to harm Hermione and stunned me downstairs?!" he said angrily.

Draco reached for his wand before Ron punched him again. He raised his wand and stunned him. Ron flew from his feet and crashed on the armour. . A loud bang roared the whole tower.

The whole noise was heard all over Hogwarts, Cho and Harry stopped kissing when they heard the loud noise. Cho jumped from her feet, and pulled herself out of Harry.

"Wait here, I will find where that noise came from." said Cho, looking very distracted.

"Where do you think that noise came from?" asked Harry eagerly. "I think it's from the Gryf-"she was cut off, Madame Pomfrey called her to come with her.

'Hermione' Harry thought.

"Cho, Wait, I'm coming with you" Harry shouted.
