"Hermione!" She was woken by Parvati, "Everyone's going down to breakfast so I thought I'd wake you."
"Oh, thanks Parvati" said Hermione. She was very confused about her dream. Why had she had it? She felt embarrassed for some reason. She dressed quickly and went down to breakfast trying to forget the dream.
When she got down to the Great Hall, Hermione saw Harry and Ron talking at the Gryffindor table. She walked over and sat down across from Harry, next to Ron.
"Hello Hermione, why are you so late?" asked Ron.
"Oh, um, I just overslept that's all" said Hermione looking at Ron and then Harry, and quickly looked away blushing.
We got your schedule for you." Said Harry, "Defense Against the Dark Arts first, with Slytherin."
"That should be interesting. I'm really looking forward to see how he teaches." Said Hermione.
"Yeah, really looking forward to seeing how Snape's little brother treats us." Said Ron sarcastically. Hermione glared at him.
After breakfast they all set off for their Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, all wondering what it would be like. As they got there they saw everyone else huddled out side the classroom waiting. The bell had rung announcing the start of class, and still the teacher wasn't there. It was only a few minutes after that he had opened the door and ushered them inside, wearing robes of midnight blue.
"Come in and choose a seat where ever you like" he said, his voice was not nearly as cold and dark as the other Snape, but rather friendly.
Everyone was still talking as they took their seats. Most of the Gryffindor's sat near the back while the Slytherin's occupied the front, thinking they would be favored by their new professor.
"After I take roll, I would like it if you would please divide yourselves into groups of 3. For today's lesson we're just going to take a review test to see what you all know, and don't know, and you may work with the people you choose, so choose carefully." He smiled. Everyone seemed to like this idea, and the class began to split itself into groups. Ron, Harry and Hermione were a group of course, and next to them was Neville, Dean and Seamus.
When he was done taking roll, he picked up a stack of papers and walked around to the front of his desk. "I will need someone to assist me in passing these out," he said, and many hands shot into the air, but were rejected when he then said" Mr. Potter, how about you"
This came to a shock to many people. Harry slowly got out of his seat and went up to the front of the class where he grabbed the papers out of the professor's hand, who was smiling at Harry as he did so. Harry gave a week smile back, and headed down the front row, when he came to Malfoy, he sneered.
"Already doing dirty work for teachers, Potter? Trying to suck up so the teacher wont hate you?" Malfoy lowered his voice a bit, "Well you're wasting your time, because I heard that he hates Gryffindors just as much as Snape does, so your out of luck" Malfoy twisted an ugly smile across his face when Harry was about to say something back, but he was interrupted.
"What's going on here? Causing a bit of trouble Mr., um let me see, Mr. Malfoy, of course, 5 points from Slytherin, now take your test and start working please" Professor Snape said this all in a very calm voice as Harry finished passing out the tests.
"Guess you heard wrong" Said Harry coolly as he went back to join Ron and Hermione again.
"This class might not be so bad after all," said Ron, "Infact, I think I like this Snape."
"What did I tell you Ron? Do you ever listen?" said Hermione in her usual, I told you so, kind of voice.
They worked on their tests for the remainder of the class. Hermione and Harry caught each other's eyes several times, and Harry swore he saw her smile and she looked away once, and felt a slight tingle of butterflies in his stomach.
"There will be no homework tonight" announced the new professor Snape at the end of class, "just get good rest." And he smiled as the bell rang and everyone piled out of the classroom. The Gryffindors were all talking excitedly amongst themselves.
The rest of the day seemed to go by pretty fast, and they didn't end up with too much homework. After the last class of the day, which was Care of Magical Creatures, the trio went to drop their bags off and then went down to dinner. The feast was full of happy conversation and everyone went up to bed with full stomachs.
When they got to the common room, Harry, Ron and Hermione settled down in comfy chairs by the fire and talked for a while when finally Ron and Harry decided to go to bed.
"Goodnight" they both said.
"Aren't you going to bed Hermione?" asked Harry. "Um, yes, I'm going up in a little bit, there's just something I have to do first." Hermione sounded a bit nervous.
"Okay" shrugged Ron, and him and Harry went up the spiral staircase. Harry took one last look at Hermione and he thought he saw her pull a small blue book from her robes. Probably doing some reading Harry thought, and then went to bed
They were walking along the grass this time, by the Great Lake, Hermione and the boy with the gorgeous green eyes. They were walking very close together. Then they stopped right at the edge of the lake where there was a blanket and which they sat on. The boy turned around and when he turned back he had a beautiful assortment of different colored roses in his hands.
"For you," he said handing her the roses, smiling at her.
"They're beautiful!" said Hermione, as she smelt them, they smelt as beautiful as they looked. She sat the flowers down and looked at him, and stared into those green eyes again. She lost herself in them, they made her feel as thought warm invisible liquid was spreading throughout her body. She wanted to melt into his arms again and before she knew what was happening, he had leaned in a kissed her. It was like nothing she had felt before. His lips were warm and incredibly soft. She felt a surge of excitement go through her. She wanted to be there forever, but just then she woke up very suddenly, she thought at first that she had over slept but realized she was wrong as she looked around. It was still quite dark. The sun was just barely peeking over the horizon giving the room a light blue glow. Hermione sat there thinking. Why was she having dreams like this about her best friend? She had never thought of Harry like this and she was starting to get annoyed with it, they were best friends and that's the way it would always be, right? She decided to get up and go down to the common room.
Harry woke up from a dreamless sleep. He peered over at Ron who was just waking up as well.
"'Morning," said Harry.
"Mor'ing" said Ron in a very groggy voice.
They got dressed and went down to the common room where they saw Hermione sitting in a chair bent over something.
"Good morning Hermione." Said Ron. Hermione looked up and closed what she was looking at very quickly and shoved it and her quill into her pocket.
"Morning" she said rather sharply, for some reason. She was feeling very annoyed at the moment.
"What's that you were looking at Hermione?" asked Harry.
"Oh nothing..just a, uh, book I got from mom and dad over the summer." She said, going a bit pink, still annoyed.
"What's up with you?" asked Ron.
"Nothing is up with me!" Hermione said, raising her voice a couple notches, but she quickly calmed herself. "I have been up for a very long time, if you must know." She replied and they all decided to leave it at that, and go down for breakfast.
She's even pretty when she's grumpy Harry thought to himself, smiling.
