Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the ideas or characters that go with it…all I own is Marlaina, Larissa (lol), Carnigan and the Devon Family...even if they are odd…
A/N: Wow it's been awhile hasn't it? Sorry about that but personal problems came up and they are just now being resolved but noone really cares about that so on to the fic! Hope you like and sorry for the wait. Warning: Characters are a little OOC…sorry.
Last time on The Hell I Live In!…
"Thanks Ginny." Hermione said giving her a hug.
"Wait, what about Ron?" Hermione asked.
"You know Ron, he doesn't see anything in front of his own nose unless it's topped with a cherry." Ginny scowled.
Hermione laughed at that comment.
"Let's go inside. Harry's probably worried." Hermione said.
Ginny nodded as both girls got up and walked inside once again.
Now on The Hell I Live In!…
Mrs. Weasley waved goodbye as the three friends stepped onto the train.
Hermione smiled and waved back as she began her search of Draco.
She quickly found his blond head in the crowd and grinned.
She noticed the scowl across his face as his sister kept pushing him along.
Hermione shook her head in amusement at the two.
When Draco finally saw her he smiled and ran up to her.
"So, how'd it go?" He asked after giving her a hug.
Before Hermione could answer Marlaina came up to the two.
"Jeez, why couldn't you move like that a minute ago? Oh hello Hermione." Marlaina said sweetly nudging Draco who blushed.
"I'll just leave you two alone." With that she gave them a wink and left to the teachers compartment.
Draco shook his head while watching his sister's departing figure. He finally turned to Hermione and she wrapped her arms around him in a warm embrace and planted a sweet kiss on his lips.
When the kiss broke Draco grinned then opened his mouth to say something but was interupted.
"Whooaa!" Came a voice laughing.
Both turned to see Blaise with a grin on his face.
Draco blushed and let go of Hermione.
"What do you want Blaise?" Draco asked trying to change the subject as people began to look in their direction from Blaise's outburst.
"I'll make this quick since I see your busy." Blaise smiled brightly at that comment making Draco's already pink face go beet red.
"I took your advice about Val." Blaise grinned.
Malfoy smirked.
"What I tell ya? Ladies love it." Hermione rolled her eyes and tapped Draco on the shoulder.
"What exactly do "ladies" love?" She asked with a smirk.
Draco turned to Blaise who smirked.
"You know I could really get used to her." Blaise said as though he'd been decideing for awhile.
"Congratulations anyway." Draco said.
"I owe it all to you. By the way good luck with your girl. Looks like you're in trouble." Blaise whispered before running off no doubt to find Valerie Court.
"So what advice did you give him?" Hermione had dropped the subject until they were in their own compartment and the train was well under way.
"I just gave him some advice on how to attract Court's attention." Draco explained.
"Like what?" Hermione asked curiously.
"I told him to buy her some roses show up at her house looking good and invite her to dinner. You know how Blaise is, he sucks when it comes to romance." Draco explained while looking out the window.
"So, you taught him?" Hermione asked moving next to Draco.
Draco nodded with a smile.
"Who else?" He asked seriously.
Hermione held back the urge to snort.
"Well, how did it go?" Draco asked changing the subject.
"Not so good." Hermione said with a frown.
Draco nodded.
"Don't worry, we'll find them." Draco said putting an arm around her comfortingly.
Hermione nodded while leaning her head on his shoulder with a sigh.
"I just wish I knew where they went." Hermione furrowed her brow in thought.
"Weasley can take care of himself and Devon." Draco said leaning his head on hers.
Hermione nodded slightly.
"I know." She whispered half heartedly.
Far away two figures were walking along. One was holding a broom while the other just tried to keep up.
"This is terrible. Mum's gonna kill me." Ron Weasley whined to his companion.
"It's not the end of the world Ron…" Larissa thought a moment as they continued on the road.
"Ok, yes it is but that's no reason to panic." She concluded.
"No reason to panic? Are you insane?! We have no food or water while we're walking on this deserted road that no muggle contraption has come by while noone in the wizarding world knows where we are and you say there is no need to panic?!" Larissa just stared at him with a worried expression.
"I'm sorry but what are we going to do?" Ron asked.
"We need to find some place to go. Where do you normally go when you're in trouble?" Larissa asked hopefully.
"Home." Ron mumbled sadly.
"Home? Why? If you're in trouble you go home?" Larissa questioned.
"Of course, my mum clears things up quite well even though she is sort of scary at times when she's angry." Ron shrugged.
"Amazing, home is the last place I would go." Larissa said.
Ron stopped in his tracks.
"My family is all nuts, you've met the one and only sane person in that household…" Larissa continued on when she finally noticed Ron had stopped she turned around.
"What?" She asked.
"That's it." Ron said with a grin.
"Let's go to your house!" Ron exclaimed.
"My house? Why? That's insane! They can't know I'm alive remember?" Larissa asked.
"Darn." Ron said sadly.
"Any other ideas?" Ron asked.
"I guess we just continue on this road…" Larissa said looking down the very long and seemingly never-ending street.
Ron nodded.
"I wonder if Harry and Hermione are looking for us?" Ron thought aloud.
"Of course they are. They love you." Larissa said somewhat sadly.
Hogwarts students crowded around the outside of the enormous castle. The doors finally opened and everyone flooded inside.
"I can't wait to get some food." Harry said, his mouth practically watering as he said it.
"I wish Ron were here." Ginny said sadly.
Hermione and Harry's faces fell.
"Me too." Harry said wrapping an arm around Ginny.
"Do you think Dumbledore knows where they are?" Hermione thought suddenly.
All three looked up with a smile.
"Let's ask him after dinner." Harry said as his stomach grumbled for food.
Hermione turned to Draco who was looking around the room.
His gaze finally stopped on someone and Hermione followed it to see Blaise and some other Slytherin boys joking around.
Draco turned to Hermione and smiled.
"You can go see them if you want. I'm not going to stop you." She laughed as she pictured trying to stop Draco and him running over her instantly.
"I don't know you have a pretty good right hook." Draco said referring to third year when she had punched him.
Hermione blushed.
Draco gave her a kiss.
"I'll see you after dinner." He added before walking over to his friends.
Blaise saw him first and quickly walked over to him.
"Hey Malfoy, have a good holiday?" He asked as though he hadn't seen him.
Noone was to know about Larissa and noone that knew about it was going to say a word.
"It was pretty good actually. I assume you had a good one as well?" Malfoy asked.
Blaise was about to answer but was interrupted by another Slytherin.
"Enough of the polite chatter, what's up with you and the mudblood?" A dark headed boy asked.
Malfoy tightened his grip.
"First of all don't you dare call her that and second of all it's none of your business." Malfoy concluded coldly.
"Whatever you say. I just couldn't help but notice that you were with Devon before vacation and now with Granger after hearing about Devon's death. I'm not even that cold Malfoy." The boy continued.
"Get a clue Corth." Blaise said.
"Come on let's go." He added to Malfoy.
Malfoy nodded and they left the scene as undoubtedly the rumors would begin.
