"Hermione," Ginny said quizzically, "Hermione, wake up!" Hermione's eyes fluttered open and jumped straight up in alarm, "What is it Ginny? Is something wrong with Harry?" Hermione asked anxiously. She was always worrying about him constantly due to Voldemort being in such close proximity to Hogwarts, striking near the grounds occasionally.
"No, but it's ten minutes to nine, and if you don't hurry, we'll be late for class!" Ginny announced. Hermione glanced at the clock. "God, what's gotten into me lately? I'm usually up before everyone in this room, and now I'm cutting it close by ten minutes!? Ugh, whatever, I'll just go get dressed."

Hermione didn't have time for a shower, or even breakfast, for that matter. She got up and got dressed hastily, before gathering her books for her first class and heading off. "Potions," she commented, "Ick."

She dashed down the stairs, making it just in time for her first Potions class of October. She walked in just as Snape turned his back to the class and snuck to her chair next to Harry. He glanced at her and asked, "Hey, where were you? You're notorious for being the first one in class," he smiled. "I kind of overslept, you see—"Hermione was cut off by a very angry Snape. "MISS GRANGER" He yelled at a deafening tone, "Why are you talking during my class? Speaking of class, nice of you to show up." He sneered. "10 points from Gryffindor for your insolence."

Hermione sighed, then turned back to her books. This was going to be a long day. Harry noticed the defeated look on her face and grasped her hand and squeezed it. She looked at him and smiled, showing some type of affection back, then turned her attention to the not-so-affectionate Potions Professor at the front of the class.

"Now this is a very important lesson we will be learning today, so everyone, listen up. We have learned about the incendio potion last month, and its uses for quick, temporary time travel, as well as the interregio potion, used for a permanent jump of an epoch of time. Today we will be combining these two potions into the latrio potion, made for a jump into a place in time which most suits you." He finished. "Now, as everybody knows, these potions are NOT to be used on anybody, for they are just for learning purposes only. You have one hour. Begin." He finished. Hermione immediately jumped up to retrieve the two potions, and read the directions in the potions book as how to combine the two. "

"I wonder where I would be thrown into time," Harry questioned, "I, ovbiously would want to be thrown right into the heart of the 70's, when my parents were here. If i could just talk to them for 10 minutes." He thought with a longing in his eyes. Hermione did all she could do to comfort him over the years, but it wasn't the same and they knew it. One day though, he knew he would meet his parents. He would just have to wait it out. Hermione contemplated where she would want to be sent. "I don't know what time period I'd like—maybe during the 1800's." She thought about riding in a gorgeous white carriage to a huge Victorian house—full of books. Now that was living to her.

"Mione, you're so old fashioned. That's what I love about you." Harry said with a meaningful look. Hermione blushed. They had only started dating 3 weeks ago, yet it seemed that their relationship had been so much longer than that. It must have been the friendship. It just felt like they were taking it to the next level. Plus Harry was gorgeous, something that every other Gryffindor girl had noticed. But he had chosen her, plain Jane Hermione Granger. And she was real proud of it too.

She poured all the necessary ingredients into her cauldron, then continued to mix the two potions as instructed. As professor Snape was making the rounds, Malfoy evilly glanced in her direction, obviously diverting some type of scheme.

"Hey mudblood!" he called out to her. Hermione had gotten used to being called this defaming name that he loved to call her...but this was just it. After all, Harry was there if something bad happened. "What did you say, Malfoy?" she said through clenched teeth. Malfoy left his station and walked over to her, eyeing her with a devilish grin. "I said, hello, mudblood. I must say you are doing a hell of a job over here combining these two potions. Tell me, where does your heart desire to go?" he asked her. Hermione glared at him when Harry shot back, "What's it to you Malfoy?" He said in a harsh tone. "Oh nothing, just wondering where I'm sending her to." He told Harry. "Malfoy, first of all, what in the hell are you talking about? I'm not going ANYWHERE! So, if you please, leave me alone and stop taunting me because you definitely don't want to see the consequences," she said, not really knowing what exactly the consequences were herself. "Oh really?" he shot back, "I think I know very well. Have fun, Granger." He took a vial of green liquid out his pocket and lifted his arm back--when Snape came over to check on them. "Is everything alright over here?" he asked, eyeing each of them questionably. Malfoy shrugged, then dropped his arm and headed back to his station, a defeated look on his face. Snape gave them one last look, then walked away to Neville's station, which an omnious deep purple smoke was escalating from.

Hermione shrugged, while Harry gave her hand a squeeze. "Don't worry Hermione, he's not worth your feelings. Only a few more months with him here." he said, smiling. "I know, it just gets me so mad! I mean, I can't go anywhere without you or Ron protecting me from whoever might be trying to pull something on me. I just wish... I just wish I could get Malfoy back for this..and every other time he was cruel to us. I don't even care if I get in trouble!" she said, fuming. "Now Hermione, you know you dont want to get in trouble. Like I said, he's not worth it. None of them are. Besides, what if something happened and we couldn't see eachother? Now I don't now about you, but I'm not very keen on that idea. Since we are together and all." he said, sheepishly. "I just don't want you to get hurt, Hermione. I really love you and I care about you and your future, don't throw it all away over some incoherent idiots." He finished. Hermione was beyond pissed. Harry, of all people, wasn't supporting her in her struggle to get Malfoy back for everything they had done to them? "Harry, I must do something. I can't just can't let him get away with all the horrid stuff he says about me. About us. Come on Harry, you know you want to get him back, just a little bit." She commented.

All of a sudden, there was a huge explosion frm Neville's side of the dungeons. All of the slytherins snickered while the Gryffindors looked sadly over in Mr. Longbottom's direction. Hermione, the caring soul, ran over to Neville as soon as she heard the explosion, but slipped on the ground and hit her head. Looking up for Harry or someone to help her up, she only saw that white-blonde hair and those steel-grey eyes she despised so much. "Time to finish what we started, Granger." With that, he threw the potion at her, and before she knew it, she felt a strong pull at her feet before she fell into the darkness. The last thing she remembered was Harry reaching for her hand, a horrified look on his face.
