Last time on The Hell I Live In!…
Switch places.
It sounded sort of sneaky and she actually thought she might enjoy…being a Slytherin. After all, she was just doing it to help out Larissa…she was helping a Slythering girl!? What was wrong with Hermione now-a-days? She was acting completely insane!
This had absolutely nothing to do with her!
Nothing.
So why did she feel so excited about it?
Now on The Hell I Live In!…Draco made it to the common room and saw no sign of Pansy.
He gave a sigh of releif.
He did however notice Devon sitting on a chair reading a book.
As he got closer he noticed the book was upside down and Devon had a slight frown on her face.
"Stressed there Devon?" He asked sitting on the couch across from her.
She looked up with an expressionless face as always and sneered.
"No of course not." She then took a closer look and smirked.
"Got in a fight?" She asked.
Malfoy then remembered being dropped by Carnigan.
"No thanks to you. I ran into your stupid boyfriend on my way here." Malfoy said angrily.
Devon smirked.
Malfoy narrowed his eyes as he sighed and went up the stairs to his bed where he immediately dropped and fell asleep.
Hermione made it back to the common room and sat on a chair. She stared at the flames in the fireplace trying to figure out the right thing to do. A student was asking her for help. Of course she should help. Although, she did only agree to help another Hogwarts student if it was for school, she never thought anyone would ask to switch places with her.
She sighed as she removed her gaze from the dancing flames.
"Hey Hermione?" Ron walked into the common room surprisingly without Harry by his side.
He sat down on the floor in front of her and gave her a half smile.
"Listen, I'm really sorry about earlier. You know, with bringing you to the medical wing. I know it was wrong of Harry and I to do that and you should have every right to be angry with us. I-I'm sorry." He appologized.
"Drat." Hermione said.
Ron gave her a questioning look.
"I can't stay mad at you Ronald Weasley." Hermione smiled.
Ron smiled also.
"So, will you still go to the ball with me?" Ron asked angelically.
Hermione nodded half-heartedly.
"Thanks Ron." She said.
"For what?" He asked.
"For making up my mind about something." She finished as she smiled and went up to her bed and fell asleep.
It was finally a weekend. The first weekend that would be spent in Hogsmeade.
All the students were quite excited to go especially the girls who hadn't bought dress robes yet.
Hermione happily skipped down the stairs to the common room and out the portrait hole.
She told Larissa she'd meet her after breakfast to discuss what they were wearing and possibly shop together.
Hermione had a feeling that they probably wouldn't be able to agree on anything so she wasn't exactly looking forward to the meeting but a day in Hogsmeade would do her good.
Malfoy yawned as he got out of bed. He looked around and noticed that only a few boys were still in bed. He stretched out and got up to head down to breakfast.
He walked into the common room and went out into the hallway on his way to the Great Hall.
Today he would have to go…
shopping. For dress robes. He sighed quite depressingly just thinking about it.
After Hermione finished her breakfast she looked over to the Slytherin table.
She saw Larissa looking towards her and she nodded.
Hermione excused herself from her friends to say she was going to the library and they nodded.
"Don't be late. Remember, Hogsmeade today." Harry pointed out taking another bite of an apple.
Hermione nodded and quickly left the Great Hall after Larissa did.
Larissa stepped outside of the Great Hall and waited as she saw Hermione come out as well.
"Jeez, took you long enough." Larissa pointed out.
"Sorry." Hermione said rolling her eyes.
"So, what's the plan?" Hermione asked.
"Well, I'm going to buy Green and Black robes and you will buy your Red and Gold ones I suppose. We are switching bodies so there really is no need to shop together." Larissa said.
Hermione nodded.
"When will I see the robes?" Hermione asked.
"How about once we get back. I'll show you what I've picked and you can do the same." Larissa said.
Both girls nodded as they headed towards the group of students forming to go to Hogsmeade.
Malfoy wasn't the only guy that wasn't looking forward to shopping.
Harry and Ron were also quite depressed.
Ginny ran up to them and Harry smiled as she blushed slightly.
"Hey Gin." Harry said.
"Hey Harry." She said playing with a lock of her red hair.
"Have you seen Hermione?" Ron asked.
"No, not today." Ginny said.
"What do you bet she's still in the library at Hogwarts." Ron said with a slight laugh.
"No I'm not." Ron turned to see Hermione with an amused smile.
"Hey Hermione. Let's go." Ginny said dragging her friend away.
"We're going to get some makeup and such you two go get your robes." Hermione said.
They nodded.
"See ya Gin." Harry waved.
Ginny blushed as she waved back.
"Jeez, you guys got it bad. Have you told Ron yet?" Hermione asked.
Ginny frowned.
"No." Ginny said.
"He'll understand…" Hermione began.
Ginny raised her eyebrows at Hermione.
"Ok, sorry I forgot it was Ron we're talking about." Hermione said.
Ginny nodded.
Larissa walked into a dress shop.
She noticed Ron and Harry over in a corner looking at some dress robes.
Larissa smiled as she watched them goofing off. She walked closer where she saw some girls dress robes.
Ron and Harry walked by her and she actually smiled. Neither of them noticed as they continued.
Larissa frowned slightly.
"He'll never see me until I'm Hermione." She thought as she sighed aloud.
Draco continued looking at dress robes with a large amount of boredom.
He moved on to another store where he finally saw it.
The perfect robes.
They were black with green trim on the collar and the bottom.
Draco smirked.
"Thank god this shopping is almost done." He thought while taking the robes and paying for them.
Well? R&R please! Next chapter should be more exciting…hope you like! Thanks!
