Author's note: Hey all I passed my 1500 eval, and my state law test. YEAH! I only have a couple more things left till I graduate. I'm so excited. Thought I'd let you all know.
Draco was sitting by himself in the library thinking when Harry joined him.
"What's up, you look deep in thought."
"I know I don't deserve it but I wanna ask you, since your her best friend. Do you think when this is all over with, and she ready Hermione would go out with me."
"I think Hermione just wants to move on, and forget everything that Ron did to you beat him up for her I think she had new thought about you."
Draco nodded "I want to prove to her that I'm not like my father, nor do I want to be."
"You know Malfoy, we've all see the new you.Trust me when I say this I don't think you could prove yourself any better than you are.We're all on the same side now, and thats how it should be."Harry got up, and walked away.
Draco got up to walk with him, and when they started walking down the hall when they bumpped into someone they didn't think they'd see for a long time.
"What are you doing here Weasley?" Draco asked.
"None of your business Malfoy. I guess it's true what they say our justice system isn't what it use to be." Ron said smirking.
Hermione was walking down the hall to find Harry, and tellhim what happened in Dumbledore's office when she saw him, and Draco talking to someone.
"Draco, Harry!" She walked over to them, and stopped dead in her tracks.
"Hey Mione. How's my favorite girlfriend?"Ron said starting to walk towards her.
"Don't you go near her!"Draco, and Harry shouted stepping infront of her.
"Oh Hermione's got bodyguards.I guess she finally safe."Ron said sarcastically.
"Come on Hermione."Draco said leading her away.
"You know Malfoy you can change all you want she's still never gonna be yours, and you'll never be able to have her like I did."Ron said smugly.
Draco turned to go beat him down again but Hermione grabbed his arm.
"He's not worth it."She said.
"I know that, but you are." Draco went to turn again, but Ron wasn't there.
"Where'd he go?" Harry asked. "There's no way he could move that fast."
"Let's just get out of here."Hermione said grabbing Draco's hand, and not letting go.Draco smiled when he noticed this.
They went outside, and sat down by the lake.
"So Mione what did Dumbledore want." Harry asked.
"Oh Just to let me know to meet him in his office around 7 in the morning the day of the trial so we can go to the ministry together.I wanted to also tell you that mine, and Ron's parents were there."
"What! What did they say? The Weasley's I mean."Harry was shocked that they even came to see Hermione. He loved them as parents, but after what Ron did he didn't think he could look at them the same way.
"They apologised for what happened.Said they didn't understand what's happened to Ron. My parents on the other hand wanted me to leave, and go home."
"What did you say?" Draco asked.Hermione smiled.
"I'm not going home. I'm gonna stay here. Sorry to dissappoint you, your stuck with me."
"Good." Draco said relieved then relised what he said. "I mean it's good that your not gonna let Weasley win, and scare you away. I mean Hogwarts wouldn't be..."
"Draco it's okay. I know what you meant."Hermione said laughing. Harry couldn't believe it, Hermione was laughing. He felt like it's been forever since he heard her laugh.
Hermione went to the library that evening to study for her Charms test in quiet, but that didn't last.
"No bodyguards?" A voice said causing her to look up from her book. "that can't be good."
Hermione stood up, and rushed to the other side of the table so she was facing Ron with a good distance between them.
"Leave me alone."
"You know things can happen if noone's here to protect you. They aren't doing a very good job are they."Ron said pushing the table aside causing Hermione to back up.She looked around trying to find an exit, but he was blocking the only way out.Ron pulled a cloth out of his pocket, and a bottle of some liquid. He put some of the liquid on the cloth, and then threw the bottle on the floor.
Hermione threw her books at him, and tried to make a rush to the door.Ron grabbed her by the waist causing her to scream.
Blaise heard the scream on is way to the great hall, and ran for the library.When he got there it was empty. He looked around, and a bottle caught his eye.He picked it up, and sniffed it.He looked around again, and then left to find Dumbledore.
Blaise was running so fast it felt like his chest would explode. He busted through the doors to the Great Hall, and scanned the room.She wasn't there, he failed her.He ran to the Professor's table, and held the bottle he found in the library out.
"Professor I heard a scream in the library, when I went to see what was going on I found this bottle on the floor, and then I came here to see if Hermione was okay.She's gone Professor." Blaise said so only he could here.
Dumbledore stood up in the quiet room, and spoke loud, and clear. "Has anyone in here seen Mrs. Granger?"
Noone answered which started to cause great alarm in Dumbledore's gut.
"What's going on!" Draco yelled standing up.Blaise turned to his best friend.
"Hermione's missing."
Hermione groggily woke up, and looked around at where she was.She sat up straight when she relised she was in a cell.
"Oh I am in so much trouble. This can not be good."She said to herself.
"Your right about that Mudblood."
Hermione turned, and saw Lucius Malfoy standing with Ron, and ...Voldemort.
