"Hermione what are you talking about? Get hurt again from what?" Harry asked.

"From my father." She whispered into his ear. "Why what did he do to you?" Harry demanded, but Hermione was silent. "Hermione tell me."

"I-I can't." She stuttered, and she jumped up and ran into her bedroom.

The Next Morning

Harry had barely gotten any sleep last night. He was to busy thinking about what happened with Hermione. So when he went downstairs in the morning he saw Hermione's door open, and figured she already left to the Great Hall.

Harry quickly got dressed and made his way down to eat breakfast. "Hey Harry!" called Ron "What has gotten into Hermione? I accidentally bumped into her while I was getting a piece of toast and she totally freaked and ran into the library. I didn't even try to go after her."

"Ron there's something I need to tell you." Said Harry, and he led Ron to the far end of the table, so they wouldn't be herd.

Harry told Ron about everything that happened the night before. Ron was listening contently the whole time, not saying a word till Harry was done.

"Harry we need to do something." Said Ron "We need to figure out what Hermione's dad did to her." "I know Ron," said Harry "But how? She is acting like she is afraid of us. Well I don't think she is afraid of me anymore. I think I made an impact last night." "Lets not try to jump in to anything just yet," said Ron "Lets wait a few days, and take it really slow."

"Yeah" said Harry "Well we have defense against the dark arts with her first today, so how about you act like nothing is wrong. I obviously cant because of what happened last night." "Yeah." Agreed Ron "Lets go."

Defense Against the Dark Arts

Harry, Ron, and Hermione all sat in the same table. Hermione on the end, with Harry in the middle.

"OK class," started Professor Lupin "I know this is your first day, but we are going to go strait into things. I will pair you up into partners, and one person will put an invisible spell on themselves. The other person will try and find them, and the partners with the fastest time will have no homework. So here are your partners."

"Dean and Parvati."

"Ron and Lavender."

"Harry and Hermione."

"Semus and Neville."

And so after a few minuets Lupin had sorted out the class, and everyone was waiting outside the door. "Ok, so Dean and Parvati you can go first. Who is going to go invisible?" he asked

"Me." Said Parvati "Ok," said Lupin "So you will point your wand to your head and say 'Invisero', then when you want to come back you point your wand at your head and mutter 'Incendio'. Got it?" she shook her head yes. "Ok so go into the classroom and pick a spot, when you are invisible holler, and I will let Dean in and start the clock."

Parvati entered the classroom, and after a few minuets we herd her holler, so Lupin let Dean in.

Everyone was waiting silently outside when all of a sudden we herd a shrill cry, and Parvati came out of the room, Dean behind her with a big read mark on her face.

"My dear what happened?" asked Lupin. "He felt me up!" cried Parvati.

"No I didn't!" said Dean "I tripped over something and then I fell into you, how was I supposed to know it was you? You were invisible."

"Where were you hiding?" asked Lupin "W-well in the middle of the room." Said Parvati. "I thought Dean would go around the edges, so I decided to go smack dab in the middle."

Lupin didn't even answer he just told Ron and Lavender to go in.

Lavender made herself go invisible, and Ron went in to go find her. Again everyone was quiet so they could here, but nothing happened. Ron came out 10 min. later claiming he couldn't find her, so she made herself visible, and smacked Ron upside the head. I guess she really didn't want homework.

"Ok Potter, Granger, how about you two show the class how it is done." Said Lupin.

Hermione entered the classroom, and made herself invisible, and Harry went in to go find her.

Harry first paced around the room just to see what would happen, and when he passed a row of desks he could smell her.

Man I love that strawberry smell. Harry thought. But I can't tell her I found her because of the way she smells. Hmmm....

Harry walked over to the door and turned of the lights. He then took out his wand, and muttered 'lumos'. He paced around the room till he got back to the desks and said "Hermione I found you, I can see your shadow."

Hermione made herself visible, but didn't say anything to Harry. They both walked out of the classroom, and Harry told Lupin how he found her.

After the whole class had gone, Harry and Hermione had the fastest time, so they didn't have to do the homework.

During all their other classes, nothing really happened. Harry couldn't wait for care of magical creatures tomorrow, because he hadn't seen Hagrid yet.

During Lunch Harry sat alone with Ron, because Hermione was in the library, even though she had no homework, and he finally saw her just before he was about to go to bed.

Harry walked into the common room, and saw Hermione lying on the couch reading a book.

"Hey 'Mione" he said as he sat down next to her. She didn't say anything, or even look up at him. "We need to get started on the back to school ball. I was thinking we should go with a muggle theme. We haven't done that yet."

"Yeah sure." Hermione answered still not looking up at him.

"Hermione can you please look at me when I am talking to you." Harry pleaded. Hermione looked up at him, this time no fear in her eyes. "Listen Hermione I don't know what happened to you over the summer, but I want to help. You are my best friend and I don't want to lose you."

"Harry you can't be my friend, you can't tell me anything, we need to just pretend like we never met." She said.

"Hermione you don't mean that." Harry said quietly.

"Harry listen to me. If you stay my friend your life is in danger, along with mine." She said. "What are you talking about?" Harry asked. "Does this have to do with Voldemort, because I will protect you Hermione."

"Harry do you really want to know what happened to me over the summer?" Hermione asked fear seeping into her eyes.

"Yes Hermione. I do" Harry said.

"Ok, then I'll tell you."
