Author's Note: Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the reveiws! They
mean a lot to me! ALSO, at this point in the story, I will NOT be changing
them back into themselves. If they are able to use the polyjuice potion, it
won't last...
Chapter 12: Limited Time
"Harry, don't pack that!" Hermione screetched, snatching the article of clothing in Harry's hands.
"Sorry to tell you, Hermione, but it is either that or this," Harry held up a smaller shirt with slits in the sides.
"Harry, why did you buy such slutty clothing for me?" Hermione growled, also grabbing that shirt.
"Can you blame me?" Harry asked, emidiatly feeling embarressed. His face grew hot. "Er...I mean...well...I was angry!" Harry's lie convinced himself and Hermione.
"Well, I'll wear mother's cloths if I must to retain my dignity," Hermione said, shoving the last pair of pants into Harry's suitcase roughly.
"Well, I don't like those pants your making me wear," Harry said, shifting the focus from himself.
"That's just too bad, isn't it?" Hermione laughed.
"Yes, it is," Harry gritted his teeth and lunged for the shirt. Then, he mocked Hermione in saying, "Isn't it?"
"Ha," Hermione spat. "That's funny."
They zipped up their suitcases and pulled them down the stairs.
Harry turned around only to be pulled by the elbow by Jenn up the stairs.
"What the-"
"Your'e leaving?" Jenn whined. "Why?"
"Jenn, I-"
"You're leaving me all because of a fight. You know I wanted to get to know Harry this summer and we had plans!" Jenn said stubbernly, folding her arms.
"P-plans change!" Harry stuttered. He was angry at Jenn for yelling at Hermione...well, him. But she shouldn't have called Hermione complicated! Even though she is...oh, forget it! "Plans change...ecspecially when YOU have an outburst and call Hermione complicated!"
"Now you're referring to yourself in third person? Fine! Leave! Maybe my head won't hurt anymore!"
"Good! That's good!" Harry yelled and stomped out in a very Hermione- like matter. Then, he ran to Hermione's room and cried. Wait... Harry sat straight up in the bed.
"Why am I crying?" He asked, shuddering at what the answer might hold. Think of a logical reason, his mind told him. No! Not his mind! HERMIONE'S mind! He was thinking like her. He screamed...nice and loud. It was enough to make Hermione's mother, Jenn, and Hermione herself run to the room.
"Hermione? What is it?" Her mother demanded in a worried voice.
"I saw a spider," Harry said quickly.
"Oh, Hermione!" Niomi sighed and walked away, drying her wet hands on her apron. Jenn rolled her eyes, but looked warily around the room and then left.
"Harry...why did you scream?" Hermione asked suspiciously.
"You don't want to know," Harry whispered, but said it anyway. "I'm thinking like you!"
"That isn't bad!" Hermione giggled. "Maybe you'll get better grades now...well, you better for my sake."
"No, Hermione. I AM thinking like YOU. Really...I just cried. A-and I don't cry," Harry lied, remembering the time Dudly beat him up and he bawled like a baby.
"No...no, no, no. This isn't good. We DO NOT need another problem! Grr!" Hermione sat down and pulled at her short supply of hair. "Oh, Harry, what if...what if in time..." she stopped and bit her lip, trembling.
"If time...if in time we what?" Harry inquired, dreading the answer.
"W-what if we...become eachother. I mean, if your beginning to think and act as me, then I might, too. We'll remember being ourselves, we'll remember what it was like and we will be miserable for the rest of our lives! And I don't want to be you!" Hermione sobbed.
Harry would have said something sarcastic back at her if he hadn't been distraught. They sat in silence for a few moments.
Hermione was the first to speak. "We need to get downstairs and go to Ron's." Then she stood and walked downstairs. Harry's mind was spinning and he felt dizzy.
"No..." he held his head until Niomi called for him so they could leave. The drive to the Burrow was not a happy one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know! It is short! But I am going to work on the next chapter emidiatly. Here are some things to remember, just so you don't forget stuff. It ahs been awhile since stuff was mentioned:
Harry and Hermione knocked their heads together and cracked open their skulls which made them change to eachother. They are unable to tell anyone about it. This will be explained later. Hermione has a book and diary she forgot about! Ron knows they switched, but why? There was an important part of the book 'Through Another's Eyes' that they couldn't see. They got that book at the library. Hermione found the book mysteroiusly in Harry's uncle's attick. Why was it there?
Just some things to remeber for upcoming chapters! Very important!
