~Chapter 5: Early and small talk~
"Hermione....Hermione wake up."
"Hmmm...what?
"You need to get up before the head boy and girl catch you in here."
"I don't care let me sleep."
"Hermione Holly Granger get up or you'll get in huge trouble!"
"Alright, I'm up, I'm up."
The fact was I wasn't really awake; I was just kind of blurry. All I remembered was being led back to my bed and falling back asleep. It wasn't until later when Ginny came and got me up again that I awoke.
"Morning Ginny." I said groggily.
"Morning Hermione, had a hard time sleeping last night?"
"Just a little bit, but who came and got me up to avoid getting in trouble?"
"I did, I didn't want you to get in trouble with the head boy/girl. I never understood why you were sleeping in the common room."
"I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't go back to sleep. So I grabbed my book and started reading on the couch and fell asleep. What time did you come and drag me to my bed?"
"Around 1 o'clock in the morning. I came and got you up at 10 o'clock this morning."
"Oh, thanks, I'm sure if I got caught it would have been far worse then what you put me through."
"I'll give you some time alone to wake up." "Thanks."
My mind was in a blur and I couldn't remember why I had come in early. As I woke up later on I remembered why I had come in early and why I had cried myself to sleep. I had told Blasie that I loved him and I ran out of the coffee shop crying. There was nothing that I could do about it now, because I had already done it. The only thing I could think to do at the moment was to go and get breakfast. I would think while eating so it would be a whole lot easier for me to sort things in my head.
I went down to the Great Hall for some brunch and found a table in isolation from everyone else. Nobody could or would bother me, hopefully. Of course my assumptions were wrong. The one person I didn't want to see was standing across from me.
"What's up Granger?"
"What do you want Malfoy?"
"I want to come and talk about you and Zabini."
"O.K., what do you really want to come and talk to me about because I know your lying to me."
"You're good Granger. I actually wanted to come and talk to you about that kiss we had."
"Malfoy, you and I both know that shouldn't have happened."
"Then why did you kiss me back?"
"I didn't kiss you back Malfoy, you wouldn't let me go. So when I did pull away, that's when Blasie saw us."
"Just admit that you liked it Granger!"
"Malfoy, no I didn't, I don't like you at all. I think you are an asshole, and that you tried to sabotage me and Blasie's relationship."
"Now why would I want to do that?"
"I don't know you're the criminal mastermind, not me."
"I got to admit Granger, I do like you and the only way that I was gonna get a chance to go out with you is if you and Blasie broke up. So I may have altered the game in my direction and for my benefit, but so what. I wanted to go out with you really bad, but I knew that you wouldn't break up with Blasie to go out with me."
"Malfoy, I didn't want to go out with you then and I don't want to go out with you now."
"Hmm...might I ask why?"
"Maybe it's because you're an asshole and a dickwad that nobody likes except for the girls who want to get some!"
"Hey! That's not true and you know it!"
"Actually Malfoy it is true. I at least had a boyfriend who liked me for who I was and not so he could get laid."
WHACK! Before I knew it I was hit in the eye. I hit the cold floor with a thud and the throbbing started in my right eye. I couldn't open it, but I still could see through my left eye and I saw Malfoy run off. I had a feeling that he wasn't running to go and get a nurse to come and help me.
