Chapter 4: Afraid Of Draco? No Way..

"Scared Of me Granger," said Draco smirking. Hermione stood up, "Sc-Scared Of you? Very funny Malfoy." snapped Hermione. She was suprised by herself, her voice shook a bit while speaking to him. "Please Hermione, He is Draco Malfoy, just slap him like you did during your third year," thought Hermione. "Well, Well, Well, Mudblood." began Draco. "Don't you ever call me that Malfoy," said Hermione loudly raising her wand. But her hand shook slightly, Hermione was really suprised by her behaviour. "This is after all Draco, some common Slytherin. Why are you like this?" she said to herself. Draco suddenly pointed his wand at Hermione, "Granger, mind your own business If I ever see you reading others journals. Your dead, you were the cause of the Dark Lord's anger towards me, and I'll do anything for revenge. Bear in mind," he said coldly. Hermione stepped back suprised. Draco lowered his wand giving her a cold look. Hermione chuckled, "Old Voldy angry with Draco! Huh!" she said gaining her confidence. Hermione slowly departed, out of the library when...

"Two students roaming out of bed. My..my..my, you'll have to suffer the conseqeunces," said a gruff voice. Hermione turned back, her expression changing, Filch. She stared at Malfoy who simply smirked. "Detention to both of you, come to my office tommorow," he said. Hermione slowly went towards her dormitory as Malfoy went to his. "I've had enough this night!" she muttered. "What with, Bags switching, Detention and Malfoy's threats," she mumbled reaching her dormitory lieing on her soft bed falling asleep at once.


The next day, Hermione woke up with a groan recalling the events of the previous night. She had a quick shower, wondering the same thing, Why am I fearing Draco Malfoy? "The Prophecy" said her inner voice. Hermione decided to forget it and put on her Hogwarts robes brushing her thick hair. She quickly went to the boys dormitory to see Harry and Ron. To her suprise neither of them were up yet, let alone Harry. Seamus and Dean were asleep too. She glanced at the clock, gosh.. It was barely 4 o' clock. She was about to leave when she heard a moan. She turned around to see Harry twisting and turning muttering, "No..Hermione..no, Set her free" "Harry," she began. He gave no reply. "Harry, are you alright! HARRY!!" she almost screamed. Causing Ron to jump upright, his eyes were closed however, Ron began to play some sort of an imaginary guitar, "I am a disco dancer, Will you hug me.." he said in an unpleasant sing-song voice. "Boys," muttered Hermione exasperated. "HARRY! RON! Are you ALRIGHT!" shouted Hermione. "I had no idea boys acted this way at 4.00 in the morning," she thought irritated. Dean and Nevielle made no moment. Nevielle was snoring. "Uh!Huh!" said Ron waking up. Hermione, you spoilt my best dream!" said Ron. Hermione snorted recalling what Ron had done. Hermione merely pointed at Harry who was rolling over the bed screaming. Nevielle, Dean and Seamus woke up with a jump.

"Err..what's going on.." asked Dean. "Ron pointed at Harry. Ron and Hermione shouted together, "Harry!!HARRY!!!!HARRY!!!!!!!!"

Harry shot upright. "Hermione, Hermione its Voldemort...he," began Harry. Hermione and Ron flinched at the mention of his name. Dean, Seamus and Nevielle went back to bed muttering about people who talked in their sleep. "Voldemort was planning about some, Revolt. 'The Mudblood Revolt' he said something about Draco spoiling the suprise attack and he taking you as a hostage.." continued Harry hurriedly. Hermione looked at Harry with horror, a hostage? "For What?" Hermione asked. "I don't know. I woke up." said Harry simply. "Well, I think we'll just have to face it Harry. Lets not, worry about it now." said Hermione remembering the previous dreams Harry had. "H-How can you ever think of that Hermione. Even if you can take it so lightly, I can't. Your my best friend and-and I can't simply let this happen. I'd even die for you, Voldemort can't take you away. I'm there for you Hermione. I'll even fight for you if nessesary." said Harry. Hermione smiled softly, "Thanks Harry," she said. That was indeed one of Harry's heroic speeches which always brought comfort to Hermione. She slowly sighed as Harry and Ron went away. What with this nightmare to add to Detention, The Prophecy and Malfoy. Hang on, Malfoy?
