Chapter 7: Pride before Guilt and Plans to Come
Recap: He looked down to the white marble floor. There was a tearstain in the place of where Hermione stood not long ago.
A feeling of guilt suddenly came over him. But as soon as it came, it went.
Did she really start crying because of what I said. I expected a witty remark from her. Did I really do that......? wait why do I care.....it serves her right for being such a snooty know-it-all mudblood! Doing something like that to a Malfoy like me wouldn't be a good idea. Anyway this is her fault. If she didn't leave me waiting here for a century she wouldn't be crying there.
Malfoy's smirk came back to his face. He then started getting ready for the day.
Hermione's POV
After a half an hour, Hermione had stopped crying. She wiped the last tears away from her face. She then got up and looked in the mirror. Her hair was a mess and her face was red and a little blotchy. Hermione took her wand and fixed her appearance. Instead of looking like she had just balled her eyes out for an hour, she looked fresh and normal. She decided to take her walk near the lake. She put her shoes on and came out of her room. She quietly came down the stairs hoping that she wouldn't have to put up with Malfoy again. With no sign of him she walked through the common room and out the portrait hole.
Hogwarts was really quiet and calm in the morning. Most of the pictures were still asleep, little traces of smoke was still evident from the lamps that were put out last night. Not a sound in the whole school except for the echoing footsteps coming from Hermione's feet and the constant snores of portraits down the halls.
Hermione slid through the great oaks doors. A cool wind came once she stepped out. She breathed in the refreshing air. Once she got to the lake, she was surprised to see that she wasn't the only one outside.
" Hey Angie, I didn't know that you'd be up this early." Hermione said a little surprised
Angela was standing by the shore of the lake basking in its beauty. She was also surprised to see that her cousin was up at ungodly hours.
" Yeah well I woke up a little early and decided to explore the school. But what are you doing out here?" asked Angela
" Well, the lake really seems to calm me down and I can really think here. Besides me and Malfoy had sort of gotten into another row. I mean seriously it was only a little joke and then he just blows up on me!"
" What sort of joke did you do to him?" asked Angela
" Well I locked his door that connected to the bathroom and made him bang on the door for about 5 minutes straight." explained Hermione With that Angela just gave an understanding nod.
" But the thing is that he really did get angry at me but, he usually is like this with me but I just right then and there started to to........" Hermione wasn't sure of just telling her cousin that her worst enemy had made her cry. But the better of Hermione got to her. It was better to talk about it than keep it in.
" You did what Mione?" Angela asked with concern in her voice.
" Well...umm .. its kind of embarrassing but, he had actually made me cry. But the thing is that he wasn't trying so hard as to make me come to tears. I just don't know why I had started crying. But at least I got out of there in time so that he wouldn't have seen me. Its really weird. I mean what is up with me lately. I've been having these weird feelings when my mood would change. I mean one time when I was at a picnic with my mom, she was really embarrassing me. There was a bunch of her friends there and some of their children were there too. She had started telling them about that time when I had gotten sick at Uncle Tom's wedding and I accidentally threw up on the dance floor when everyone else was dancing. I mean seriously I was only what ten? I got really mad at that but then all of sudden the picnic atmosphere had turned from sunny with bright clouds to gray and stormy. I was really weirded out. I didn't think I might have had something to do with it. I'm just really worried that something might happen to me. Things like this had happened about three times this summer. And ..... I'm surprised nothing happened today or that day on the train." explained Hermione
Angela was doing some deep thinking. It really does show that she could have had something to do with the weather change but even on the train and this morning, nothing out of the ordinary had happened.
" Don't you think you should go and ask Dumbledore about this, you might be forming some kind of power or something ."said Angela
You could tell that she was concerned with her cousin.
" I'm not sure about that Angie, but if worst comes to worst I will not hesitate to tell him." confirmed Hermione.
Angela just gave an understanding nod. When Hermione has made up her mind, she really shows that she has.
" So what do you think we should do today?" asked Angela
" Well I was actually thinking about what to do today earlier. After this we can go for breakfast in the Great Hall and see if everyone else has woken up yet. Then I guess we can all just hang out and show you around Hogwarts." said Hermione
" Sounds great. But do you think we can come back out here after breakfast, I seem to like being by the lake." asked Angela
" Sure, I really like being by the lake too. I can really get my thinking done here without having to be bother by the others."
" When do you not think Hermione?" asked Angela jokingly.
" Hey ! but not school wise, I mean like things that are going on. Like if I ever have a fight with either Harry or Ron, or just had a bad day I come down here to relax and free my mind." explained Hermione
" I see well if you ever need someone to talk to or even accompany you down to the lake, I'm your girl." offered Angela
" Thanks Angie, same with me if you need someone to talk to you can always come to me." said Hermione
" Just one question though, is because of what happened between you and Malfoy, why you came down here?" asked Angela
" Sort of, before that even happened I decided to come down here since it was still pretty early but I guess that even if I didn't think of coming down here, I would of came down eventually."
" Hermione you know that you can't just let him do what ever he wants with you. He doesn't control your life, you do. Mione you've got to start acting more independent." said Angela
" I know Angela but, I just don't know. I hate being the damsel in distress. Harry and Ron always have to back me up and they sometimes treat me as if I can't handle Malfoy myself. I just can't stand the fact that I'm always needing help from those two. I mean don't they think I can handle him. They've seen me even punch Malfoy in the face during third year. They just really underestimate my abilities." explained Hermione. It had seemed that she had really wanted to tell someone about this.
" Well I guess I'm just going to have to do something about this." said Angela
" What do you mean by that?"
" Well lets just say that were going to show Harry, Ron, Malfoy and hell the whole school that you not how they think you are." Said Angela
" Remember on the train that I said I would give you a make over?"
" Yeah...?"
" Well lets just say that we are adding this little change to it. Don't worry Mione, I'm not going to let you down." said Angela
Once again Hermione was a little hesitant about this whole thing. She was actually hoping that Angela would forget about it and Hermione wouldn't have to go through all of it. But for once she was wrong. Just like Hermione, when Angela has her mind set on something, she'll do it. As for Hermione there was no way that she would get out of it this time.
Yup well that was chapter 7 !!! Its really boring right now but I promise and I swear there will be more surprises to come and don't worry some action is to come too! But as for me I am a very busy girl. I'm graduating in like a couple of days soo watch out! hehe But anyway here are my thanks to the really cool reviewers !

But thanks a bunch for reviewing!
