Chapter 10: A new plan

For the past few weeks neither Ron nor Hermione spoke one single word to each other. Hermione, was afraid that if she said anything to him than he would say something harsh to her. And Ron was so upset with Hermione for embarassing him like that. And Harry would just sit around the common room and look at both Ron and Hermione try to avoid one another's gaze. It was the most pathetic thing that Harry Potter ever had to see.

Harry had tried his best to help Hermione out. "You can't let him get to you Hermione!" Harry had said one afternoon after lessons were over.

"I know but you were not the one getting your heart broken by somebody you loved!"

Harry just stared blankly at her trying to run through what she had just said. Did she really just say love? That's impossible. However Harry just shook this thought out of his head. "You know, he also got hurt by someone he loved."

Hermione just stood there. "He never loved me Harry. Ron, would always make fun of how smart I am. And he would tell me that Viktor and I were a couple. But that was never true. Viktor and I were just friends because I told Viktor that I liked somebody else and that I would just like to stay friends with him. I could never do that to Ron." Harry just shook his head as Hermione finished her long description of the love triangle.

This was to much for Hermione. All of the sudden she burst into tears. Harry walked over to Hermione and put an arm around her holding her close like a brother would do to his younger sister. As Hermione just stayed there for a moment,getting Harry's robe all wet, he calmly said, "just leave Ron to me. I'll help you through this."

As she went to bed that night, she couldn't help but be thakful that Harry would be so kind enough to help her through her tough times. It seemed like Harry really understood her. And that he was willing to sacrifice what he has with Luna to help her. He barely saw her now that he spent a lot of his time with Hermione instead of with Luna herself. But according to Harry she didn't mind. Actually she thought it was a great idea that she offered to help in anyway that she possibly can.

And Harry had even asked for the assistance of Ginny. But the bizarre thing was that Harry, Luna, and Ginny wouldn't even tell Hermione what they were planning to do. In fact they didn't drop even the tiniest little hint about what their knew plan would include. They just assured her that it would work and that she didn't have to do anything at all but just go along with her daily routine of her homework and classes.

Of course Hermione did have her suspicians that they were planning something that would relate to them getting kicked out of school. Especially since she walked up to them while they were oviously working on something important and had jumped when she asked how it was going.

But somehow Hermione knew that something was going to happen when she went to bed that night. She just contiued to get ready for bed and had fallen asleep before her head had even hit the soft pillow.

Two dark shadows had entered the dormitory filled with sleeping girls' but they didn't want all of them they were after only one. They slowly crept over to both sides of the four poster bed and quietly pushed the hangings to the side. One of the two had mumbled a levitation spell and had lifted Hermione Granger up and out of the door just as the other one held the door open for both Hermione and the masked person made their way silently out of the room and out of the portrait hole.
