Chapter 5

Hermione slowly opened her eyes. She looked around at her surrounding but didn't know were she was. She started to panic but calmed down when she saw Ron in the bed beside her.

She looked on the other side of her and saw Harry sleeping in the chair. "He looks so cute when he sleeps like that, but that cant be very comfortable. I wonder if he was here all night?" she thought.

She then looked at the clock beside her and noticed it was already 8. "Harry, Ron wake up were going to be late for class." she said with panic in her voice. Both Harry and Ron woke up. "What time is it" asked Ron still half asleep. "It's 8 and class starts at nine." "Holly shit we better hurry up if we want to make it to breakfast." said Ron know fully awake.

So the trio got ready the fastest they could and were actually done by 8:30. They headed to the Great Hall and took there seats at the Griffindor table. Hermione was starved and was about to eat when she noticed her dad staring at her.

She then remembered everything that happened yesterday and wasn't hungry anymore. "Aren't you going to eat?" asked Ron his mouth filled with food. "Ya, you haven't eaten anything since we got here. You can't let stop you from eating." said Harry,concern all over his face. "I know I promise I'll eat something at lunch." she said hopping that would shut them up. "Ok but if you don't eat anything at lunch me and Ron are going to pin you down and force you to eat." Hermione giggled for the first time since her mom died, but she couldn't help it, Harry had this thing of making her happy and smile. "Oh my god I actually made you smile. Who's the master." said Harry also happy since Hermione smiled.

After breakfast they headed to there first class witch happened to be potions with professor Snape and the Slytherins. They had to run to class since Ron wouldn't leave without finishing his breakfast. They entered just just in time for the bell rang.

"Your late. That's 10 points from Griffindor each." said the professor, happy to be able to take points off of the house he hated the most. "That's not fare we weren't even late." said Hermione.

"You three better go take a seat or ill take more points off of Griffindor." The trio were going to there seats in the back when Snape said "Actually, I think ill separate the "Dream Team" this year. Harry sit beside Pansy, Ron go beside Crabbe and

Hermione go beside Malfoy."

"But professor why punish me by making me sit with the mudblood?" asked Draco, mad and confused. "Don't call her that." said both Ron and Harry and they were going to launch themselves on Malfoy but Neville and Dean stopped them before they could.

"STOP IT RIGHT KNOW." screamed Snape. "Draco you will sit with Granger because I said so. Oh an I forgot, this will be your partners for the rest of the year." Everyone stopped talking and took there seats. The rest of the period didn't go as bad as people thought it would off. Griffindor only lost another 10 points witch came to a total of 40 because Neville messed up on his potion again.

"I cant believe Snape. Know I'm stuck with Malfoy for the rest of the year. And I have a feeling today is just going to get worse. I have muggle studies next and there's no way I could ignore my dad." said Hermione, walking out of potions. "Well we have divination next." said Ron.

"Can you guys change to muggle studies?? I really don't want to go there alone." said Hermione in a pleading voice. "Why don't you change?" asked Harry. "I cant there isn't enough people. (I don't know about there but at my school in English class were only 10 and some people wanted to change and they couldn't because of that.)

Please do it, for me??" asked Hermione with puppy dog eyes. "Fine we will change." said Harry not able to say no to that face and plus he was worried her dad would do something to her while if they were there he wouldn't be able too.

"But we cant change till lunch. Your going to have to go alone today. Do you think your dad will do something to you?" he asked worried. "I don't know. Oh no were going to be late. Bye guys thank you so much." said Hermione running off in the other direction.

They herd the bell ring so they ran to divination. "You two are late and on the first day as well. You are not having a very good start." said professor Trelawny, anger in her voice. "It doesn't matter, were changing to muggle studies at lunch." said Ron loving the look on her face. She had gone completely red with anger. Harry could tell she wanted to say something but she just pointed to the two seats in the back.

*******************************

Hermione was running to class when she heard the bell ring. "Shit my dad is going to kill me." She got to class panting and opened the door slowly. "Why are you late miss Granger?" (at my school one of my friends dad is a teacher and teaches the same school and he has to talk to him like he's a student and my friend has to talk to him like he was just a teacher) said her father with the voice he always had at home before he hit her.

"I-I had t-t-to g-g-g-get som-something in m-m-my r-room" she answered scared. The students around the room looked shocked that Hermione was scared of her own dad.

Her dad, Ryan, noticed this right away and changed the anger in his voice. "I guess its ok this one time but next time you will have a detention. Know go take your seat. I left the front one just for you." Hermione walked to her seat.

She knew what he was doing, he didn't want to look to suspicious. The period went by and Hermione thought she was going to be safe but when the bell rang to signal lunch, her father asked her to stay because he needed to talk to her.

When everyone in the class room was gone, he grabbed her and pushed her to the wall. "You think you were going to get away with being late during my very first class?" he asked angrily. "No I-I-I-its just th-that I lost tra-track o-of t-t-time." Hermione answered scared again.

"You were with those two friends of yours weren't you?? You better not tell them anything….." But he didn't get to finish because at that moment, Harry and Ron came rushing in the room. Hermione's dad let go of her and she slid to the floor.

"Just remember what I said." he said with that acting voice again. And with that he left. Harry and Ron ran to Hermione's side. "Are you ok? Did he do anything to you??" asked Harry, his voice filled with concern.

"I-I'm fine, you guys got here just in time." she answered shaking. "Well that's a relief" said Ron helping her to her feet. "How did you guys know I was in here?" she asked almost falling down again, but Harry caught her before she hit the ground. "Are you sure your ok?" he asked. "Yes I'm fine, my legs just feel num that's all. Anyway how did you guys know?" she asked again.

"Well when you didn't show up for lunch we knew something was wrong and we knew your last class was with your dad." answered Ron. "I'm so happy you guys got here. My dad would of probably beat the shit out of me." said Hermione with a smile on her face.

"What are friends for." answered Harry also with a smile on his face. "Well we will eat lunch first then go to Dumbledor's office. And you have to eat something Hermione, you promised." "Alright, ill eat something" said Hermione, but she wasn't hungry anymore after what happened.

They headed to the Great Hall and Hermione ate half a sandwich, wich wasn't enough according to Harry and Ron, but they figured it was a start.

After lunch, Harry and Ron headed to Dumbledor's office to change classes and Hermione headed to the library. Books always made her happy, so she hopped if she would read it would make her forget about her dad.

It was a good thing she had the rest of the afternoon off because she really didn't want to go back to classes. She took out her favorite book "Hogwarts: A History" and started to read it. She was only on the first page when she felt her eyes drop. She tried to keep herself awake but before she knew it, she was fast asleep. And for once, they weren't haunted by her dad, but were about a certain green eyed boy.
