Chapter 15: "Explanation"
Disclaimer: We own nothing but disease and the plot
Hermione's P.O.V.
We walked back to my dorm. When there, Rose looked down at us with a cheerful smile
"You must be the entertainers"
They nodded their heads.
"Rose, this is Judy, Rory, Dana, Lisa, Derek, and Rocco"
"It is a pleasure to meet you" she greeted them
"You guys, this is Rose."
They looked up at the portrait and stuttered hello's.
"Crimson Ruby" I said
Rose opened the entrance. I thanked her and we walked into the empty common room. I started to head up the stairs, but halfway up Rocco and Derek flew down to the floor.
"Sorry" I said as I rushed to them "I forgot that boys aren't allowed in the girls' dorms. Let's go somewhere else"
We (the girls) helped the boys up and headed to the room of requirement.
We went into the room, but sitting inside were Harry and Ron.
"Hey guys, what's up? We are so sorry we walked off, but I couldn't take any more Malfoy" I said as I plopped down on top of Harry (the room was full of chairs and couches). "Sit, it's ok" I reassured my friends.
They sat down. We just hung out talking and doing whatever until curfew.
On the way back to the common room, Harry pulled me aside and told Ron to take everyone to the portrait, but not go into the common room. They all headed back with Ron.
"Yeah?" I asked Harry, even though I knew what he was going to say.
"'Mione, something's up with you. I'm not sayin' that there's anything wrong, but something did happen" Harry was always bad at moments and interrogation
"There's nothing wrong or new that you don't know." I tried to tell him, but he obviously didn't buy it
"C'mon, who knows you better than me?" He said. His eyes were full of concern. I looked at the floor in guilt.
"Harry, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I can't. And I want to so much, but" I started to mumble off.
He looked down at me in concern. I could tell that he understood, but there was something else that he wanted to say
"Harry?"
"Yea?"
"As much as you know me, I know more about you. What else did you wanna ask?"
"Well, I wanted to ask if it was a potion or are you really a parseltongue, 'cause it would be really cool if you were too."
WOW! I was not expecting that!
"Um, yea, I just found out this summer"
"That is so cool" he started, and then finished "and don't worry, I wont tell anyone" in a hiss.
I giggled. Now he and I could talk without anyone understanding us, but SHIT, then people would know that I am a parseltongue. Whatever.
We walked back to the tower together.
