Chapter 5
Awake
"I owe you my life…" Hermoine slowly backed out of their embrace.
"Hermoine," Cardinal shook his head, "I saved you because I love you. Not because I want something in return." Hermoine leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"I love you too." She said softly.
Cardinal looked up at her with those oh so deep eyes and put his hands on her shoulders. "Really?"
"Yes… really." Hermoine said smiling at him lovingly. He bent forward and kissed her.
Hermoine laid slowly back into the silky cushions of the bed. She wrapped her arms around his neck so that he would follow. Cardinal hovered above her. He gently brushed an idol curl from her forehead. They embraced once again; Hermoine feverishly kissed his neck, unbuttoning his shirt.
Suddenly she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She stopped and pushed Cardinal off her. There was blood gushing from a large gash on her chest inches from her heart. She looked up a Cardinal astonished. He was holding a blood covered dagger in his hand. He smiled at her, that same heart melting smile. It wasn't until then that she saw the malice in it.

"Granger" said a far away voice, "Wake up!" The source of the voice shook her shoulder abruptly with a strong hand.
Hermoine opened her eyes slowly. Malfoy was standing ominously over her sneering. She rolled her eyes irritably.
"The library closed an hour ago, mudblood." Spat Malfoy. "Madam Pince is really pissed." Hermione cringed at the sound of that name, Madam Pince.
"Get out of my way, Malfoy!" Said Hermoine as she got up out of the chair she had fallen asleep in. A book dropped from her lap as she stood: Hogwarts: A History Vol. II. Malfoy immediately snatched the book up off the ground.
"I read this." He said this half laughing, "It's boring as hell. Just talks about The Boy Who Lived But Should Have Died."
Hermoine yanked the book out of his hands. She pushed passed him and stomped toward the exit. Draco followed her.
"You were making noises in your sleep." Malfoy said maliciously.
"Leave me alone Malfoy!" Hermoine walked fast down the corridor, lugging the large book under one arm.
"Were you dreaming about me?" Malfoy had an artificial hope in his voice. He was practically stepping on Hermoine's heels; he was following so close. "Pleasurable moaning; it had to have been me you were dreaming of."
Hermoine stopped so abruptly Malfoy just about balled her over. She whipped around furiously. "Did I not tell you twice now to LEAVE ME ALONE!" She continued down the corridor stomping.
This time Draco didn't follow. He stood in shook. 'What's her deal?' He thought to himself. He'd just been messing with her.
Hermoine stomped her way up to Gryffindor tower. "Green Ink form Blue." She said almost instinctively. The fat lady gave her a look like no other of complete confusion.
"I'm afraid that's not the password, dear."
Hermoine through the tremendous book down; it made a sound that just about shook the stairs apart. "Just let me in!" She said in a low growl. The fat lady looked her up and down.
"Tell me the password. Then I'll let you in." Bargained the portrait.
"If I knew what the bloody hell the password was I would tell you!" Said Hermoine, now passed enraged.
"Well then you'll just have to wait until someone comes that knows the password." Said the portrait simply. "I can't let you in without you knowing it."
At this Hermoine kicked the corner of the portraits frame. The fat lady squealed in horror.
"That was a mere threat, fat lady." She took a deep breath of settling anger. "If you don't let me in I will do much worse!" The portrait slid to the side fearfully revealing the entrance to Gryffindor tower. Hermoine quickly stepped inside.
Everything was normal. Hermoine breathed a sigh of relief as she approached Harry and Ron. They were sitting peacefully by the fire playing a game of chess. They were so engulfed in the game they didn't even look up as she came closer.
Hermoine wrapped her arms around them in a bear hug; knocking most of the chess pieces off the board as she squeezed them together. "I've missed you two so much." She finally let go of them after one last tight squeeze. They just stared at her silently with a look of shook on their faces.
"What?" Said Harry and Ron in unison.
Hermoine sat down beside them. "Never mind…" She looked at the jumbled chess board. "Who's winning?"
"Harry was, but that doesn't matter." Ron looked worried. "Where were you during dinner?"
"Yeah." Agreed Harry.
"I feel asleep in the library."
"Well you missed the announcement." Said Harry. Ron nodded his head.
"What was it?" Hermoine lifted an eyebrow.
"We got a new DADA professor." Explained Ron.
"Okay…" said Hermoine lifting her eyebrow higher. "And…"
"That's all." Said Harry simply.
"What's his name?" Asked Hermoine curiously.
"Cardinal Blue."
