Point Of View Chapter 4

Hermione sat on her bed alone. It was almost midnight and she should have been asleep. But something was keeping her up.

She lay down on her bed with a book open in front of her and a pen in her hand.

Dear Diary,

Today was the first day back at school. The Feast was fantastic, as usual, and Dumbledore didn't have anything interesting to say. except for the fact that HE was teaching us DADA this year.

Anyway, Ron and Harry were formulating their own ideas about why he was teaching us. I don't think they realised that I wasn't that interested.

I tried talking to Lavender and Pavrati, but it was no use.

So I came back up to the dorms. I reread 'Hogwarts: A History' until people started trickling back in from dinner.

I came up to my bed and closed the curtains around me and listened to the girls.

It didn't sound like they noticed I was missing.

But what to I care? I've put up with it since first year. You'd think tat I'd be used to it.

Oh well.

Once everyone was in bed I tried to go to sleep, but Lavender and Pavrati were whispering and giggling,

So here I am. Writing once again in my diary.

Well I suppose I had better be off, I need my rest. If I don't have anything to do tomorrow, I could reread all the reading for this year.

All my love,

Mione

Hermione looked up from her diary, and put her pen down.

Tucking to book away under her mattress, Hermione lay back down. Sometimes it just made her feel better to write.

That night she drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
