Ron and Harry came thumping down the stairs as usual. They saw Hermione sitting in a corner with books all around her. The strange thing was she actually hadn't done that in a while. She had settled down on "studying" and concentrated on being a person.
"Hermione whats up!" Harry said in a little to enthusiastic voice for a Sunday morning. Hermione jumped out of her skin.
"Harry!" She squealed.
"Sorry" Harry gave a sympathetic look. "Whats wrong?" Harry asked.
"Nothing what gave you that impression?"
"Umm you are hiding behind your books. I know you to well Hermione when something is wrong you clamber to your books." Harry grabbed a book and waved it in her face.
"I do not! Harry nothing is wrong im just trying to start early with studying." Hermione grabbed the same book and threw it at Harry hitting him in the face. Harry laughed although Hermione didn't. Harry gave her a sarcastic evil look and left with Ron.
"Something's up with Hermione" Harry told Ron.
"Tell someone who cares." Ron replied.
"Ron she is like one of your best friends you should care and I know you do somewhere in there you just need to show it sometimes. She defends you all she can and then you treat her like this." Harry kept his temper down.
Ron and Harry walked to Potions. Hermione sat next to Lavender and Harry and Ron sat together which was a strange. Generally Hermione would sit in between Harry and Ron. Harry noticed Angel walk in. Her face was covered. She walked straight past Malfoy up to Harry and Ron.
"Can I umm sit here?" Angle asked Harry without showing her face.
"Sure but umm wont.." Harry was about to ask what about Malfoy.
"Don't worry bout him I told him" She said.
"And how did he take it?" Harry asked intriguingly
Angel lifted her head to reveal her face. It was bruised and cut. Harry inspected her face then turned to Malfoy. He did this? Malfoy was evil but Harry didn't think he would have it in him to do this.
"Harry don't worry about it." Angel turned her attention to Professor Snape.
"But Angel are you ok? I mean…" Harry was cut off by Professor Snape's voice taking 10 points from Gryffindor for talking. Harry looked over at Hermione. She had tears in her eyes and when she noticed Harry looking at her she turned away from him.
