Chapter 19: When I'm With You
Hermione and Nina arrived in the Great Hall about fifteen minutes late. When they got there everyone bombarded them with questions. "I heard you locked yourself in the room Nina" "Did you really try to avada yourself?" "Are you really being sent to Azkaban?" "Ah, I see the last person is here" Dumbledore then said. Everyone looked at to doorway and saw Draco holding a small box. "Now everyone, for this activity we shall get into our groups. We shall be doing something like what muggle schools call 'show and tell'. Each person in the group shall receive something belonging to someone else in the group. The person shall observe the item and identify who the item belongs to. Professors," The professors took their groups our of the room, but Dumbledore remained with his group. He flicked his wand and Hermione's sketchbook flew into Nina's lap. Hermione had never showed anyone the sketchbook, she assumed that no one would be reading it and then became nervous. Draco's box flew onto Hermione's lap. He smiled at that because he had done something to it. Nina's box landed in Draco's lap. Nina's POV I automatically knew that this was Hermione's but I was surprised that I did not recognize it. I opened the book to see a beautiful drawing of a young woman on a cliff. There were tears streaming down her face. There was writing on the bottom. It said 'why'. The girl looked like me. I turned the pages. They were filled with journal entries, poetry, drawings, pictures and stuff like that. Why has she never shown me this? I wondered why she kept this from me as I read the entire book. Draco's POV I looked at Hermione, hoping that my box went to her. I took Nina's advice and did something drastic. Well, that's not what she told me to do, but I'm still gonna say that it was her idea if my plan blows up. I then saw a book float to Nina and I sighed on the inside. A small box then fell onto my lap. I opened it up and saw a miniature drum set that was decorated with stuff, but I could not tell what they were. I then saw letters that she wrote, including the one I read, and poetry. There were other forms of writing as well along with drawings, pictures and such. There was also a scissor in the box. Then I heard it... Hermione's POV I saw a small box fly to me. I quietly opened it and looked inside. There were pictures, muggle pictures! Of me and Draco! They were the ones we took at the photo booth at the mall. I picked up the photos and saw a small book. I opened it and read it. It was filled with lyrics from muggle songs! Then, I saw a miniature drum set, like what Nina does when she shrinks her's. It was black with a silver snake on one of the drums. The next thing I saw made me gasp. It was the guitar I saw at the music store across the road from Diagon Alley! I slowly picked it up and it began to play (with the lyrics) 'When I'm With You' by Simple Plan. "I'm taking my time I'm trying to leave the memories of you behind I'm gonna be fine As soon as I get your picture Right out of my mind I wanna feel the way you make me feel when I'm with you I wanna be the only hand you need to hold on to But every time I call You don't have time I guess I'll never get To call you mine You're nothing at all I know there's a million reasons Why I shouldn't call When nothing you say Can easily make this Conversation last all day I wanna feel the way You make me feel When I'm with you I wanna be the only hand You need to hold on to But every time I call You don't have time I guess I'll never get To call you mine Another lesson I didn't get to learn You're my obsession I've got nowhere to turn I wanna feel the way You make me feel When I'm with you I wanna be the only hand You need to hold on to I wanna feel the way You make me feel When I'm with you I wanna be the only hand You need to hold on to But every time I call You don't have time I guess I'll never get To call you mine" Nobody's POV By now, Nina knew what Draco was doing. Hermione was speechless. Dumbledore was watching the three students with pride. Draco looked at Hermione, forgetting that anyone besides them were in the room. The guitar then grew to its normal size. Hermione noticed that her name was engraved in it in silver. She looked up at Draco, filled with mixed emotions: confusion, gratitude, excitement, love, wait, love!? Draco began to walk to her with something in his hand. When her got to her, he sat down in the seat next to her (she was sitting at one end of the Gryffindor table, Nina was in the middle and Draco was at the other end) and looked into her eyes. Professor Dumbledore was shocked but covered it up with happiness for his students. Nina was proud of Draco and happy for Hermione. Draco took Hermione's hand in his own and said "Hermione, for five years we hated each other. We were sworn enemies, but over the summer you changed me. You gave me a chance and treated me like no other has before. For months now I've wanted to ask you this and last month when we spoke at the lake I wanted to ask you, but was afraid I hope that you say yes to this. Hermione, will you be my girlfriend?" Hermione didn't know what to say. She was so happy, but still so surprised. "Of course" she said. She grabbed him in a passionate kiss (let me elaborate on that, they forgot anyone was in the room until they heard Nina 'clear her throat'). They quickly separated and Draco gave Hermione what was in his hand. It was a guitar pick with their names engraved in it. Hermione smiled, but it was Dumbledore's turn to clear his throat. "I am so proud of you two for breaking a long hatred between the houses, but it is time to finish the project. Everyone shall be back soon and it shall be time for the second part of tonight's activity. Now, have you all identified who the items belong to?" "I have Hermione's sketchbook" Nina said "I have Nina's drums and box" Draco said "I have Draco's box" Hermione said (A/N I was going to have her sarcastically say that she wonders who's item she had but that would just be stupid and I just felt like telling you that to waste your time...(). Just then the rest of the school came into the Great Hall. Hermione signaled to Nina to not mention her and Draco to anyone and whispered to Draco "let's not tell anyone just yet, ok?" he nodded and Nina walked over to them. Dumbledore suspected what was going on and pretended that he imagined the whole thing. "Now, I assume that you all have probably guessed who's item you have, so now, one person from each group shall come up to the front with the item they were asked to analyze" Harry (yellow), Pansy (red), Hannah (green), Padma (orange), Seamus (purple) and Nina came up. "Now, none of you are positive as to whose item you have. One at a time you are to guess whose item you have and say why. If you are right your group gets a point, if you are wrong, your team loses a point. As you can tell, this is a competition. Let us go in rainbow order, Pansy" "I have Lngbottom's stupid Rememberball thingy. I know because he always forgets everything" "Mr. Longbottom, is she correct?" "No sir. That isn't even a rememberball" Nevile said. Pansy looked upset and embarrassed. She slowly walked back to her seat. "Padma" "I have Blaise's broomstick because he loves to fly" "Mr. Zambini?" "That is correct sir" "Harry" "I have Dean's soccerball shaped art kit, because his favorite sport is soccer and he loves art. He is a great artist." "Mr. Thomas?" "That's right sir" "Hannah" "I have Goyle's wrestling decorated box that is always full of food" "Mr. Goyle?" "Uh, uh huh" "Seamus" "I have Ernie's good luck kit because he's superstitious" "Mr. MacMillian?" "I am superstitious, but I didn't bring my kit with me. That isn't mine" "Nina" "This is Maya's" she and Harry giggled and Hermione frowned, remembering Dudley "sketchbook. I know because it" Nina knew that Hermione never showed this to anyone for a reason "it has a book list inside of it and music sheets for our favorite songs" "Miss Granger?" "Guilty" she said, mimicking Nina "Now, will all of you please sit down and will one more person from each group come up." This went on for the next two groups (only three people from each group went up because the gray group only had 3 people). "Now, the score is the gray group with three, the red, yellow and green teams with two and the orange and purple teams with one point, so the winning group is the gray group, your prize is that you three get to decide the next activity. You are all dismissed" Everyone left the room except for Hermione and Draco, Nina took Harry and Ron outside the doors so they wouldn't see the two. "What're you doing Nina?" Ron asked "Yeah, we want to talk to Hermione" Harry added. "I need to talk to you guys. It's really important!" With that she dragged the two to the next corridor. "Um, I was wondering how school was going so far, I mean the quidditch team! I heard that you were having trouble with your new chaser" she said "Um, Dean, Ginny and Nicole are fine, but Jake, one of the beaters, sucks, but he was the only person who could actually dodge the bulgers." Harry said, confused "It's really cool that Dumbledore made you captain instead of one of the seventh years" Nina continued "Listen Nina, is there something else you wanted to tell us?" Ron said "Well, I, um, YES! I was wondering if you could help me for tryouts for the Slytherin team next year. I play all positions" Nina lied. Actually, she had never been on a broomstick, but she knew that Harry and Ron would never take her seriously and hoping they would say some other time "Cool, why don't you grab your broom and meet us at the pitch in a few minutes?" Harry said 'SHIT! FUCK! DAMN! CRAP!' Nina kept thinking in her head. She nodded weakly and said "O.K. I'll go get my broom" Nina slowly walked to her dormitory. "Did you actually believe that" Harry said "How stupid and gullible does she think we are?" Ron laughed. "She even told us that she hates flying" Harry said. "Let's go get Hermione, I wonder why Nina didn't want us to get her" Ron said as they got to the Great Hall "That's why" Harry said. Ron's jaw dropped and Harry looked petrified. "What the hell!"
