A/N: hey guys, I just wanted to say thanks for the great reviews. I've been working on this story lately and revised it a lot since last time this chapter was out.

remember thinking and 'speaking' (sorry for the speaking part is changing a bit, but I seemed to have solved that problem now'


Chapter eleven
Everyone's crazy

Hermione awoke on the sunny Saturday next morning. But it was not to the best thing to wake up to. Ginny was running about cleaning the dormitory with the elves. And they were singing!

'Ah you're up! Good morning Hermione! How wonderful day is it not? Perfect day for cleaning! Is it not my little elves!'

'Yesss nice to clean on such a nice day!' the house elves sang in their full little breath.

'Yes, yes, yes it is indeed nice to clean!' Ginny shrieked.

'Ginny! Keep it down! Its 8 o'clock for Christ's sake!' Lavender yelled hiding under her covers.

'Oh come on, you sleepyheads! It's already 8 o'clock! You must hurry to get up! It's a big day today!' Ginny sang.

'Already 8! Yes it is indeed only 8 o'clock. And Ginny oh my, it's bloody Sunday!' Hermione barked.

'Yes Hermione's right, could you please stop your cleaning freak show!' Pavarti said, yawning.

'No! Oh my gosh no! Never! It's a very big day! We must be prepared! You know it's a big day today.' Ginny sang dancing on with the little elves on her shoulders dusting the higher shelves in the dormitory.

'No Ginny, we actually don't know what day it is today.' Hermione grunted.

'Other than Sunday, which means day off!' some other girl replied who was also awake now.

'Oh! You can't tell me you forgot! It's Quidditch on Hoggie today! How could you forget?' She whined helplessly.

'Aha! That's right.' Lavender said smiling to the other girls.

'But Ginny. That's not until this afternoon.' Hermione said, staring at her.

'And…why are you cleaning our dormitories in the middle of night because there is a Quidditch game?' Lavender said staring at her.
Ginny steaddied her actions a bit.

'Um.. I'm just nervous for Harry to loose the game, that's all!' She said simply with a little shiver in her voice.

'Of course he won't loose! It's Harry! Ginny, is it okay between you two?'' Hermione questioned.

'Um yeah sure... it's fine... I mean...' Everything that could be adressed as action was sucked out of Ginny now. She bumped down on the bed suddenly with a very depressed face. All the girls steamed to help Ginny.

'Tell us everything!' Lavender said with and initiate look upon her curious face.

'It's just because Harry and Ron's been trying to find out what was going on with Malfoy and what they had been doing in our common room that night. And he had a fight with Malfoy this night, because he threatened Malfoy to tell him what was going on with everything.
He tried to force Malfoy to tell Harry how Hermione could've ended up in the Slytherin corridor, but why Malfoy was the one to be punished by Snape, when he seemed to know everything that had been going on.'' Ginny said and sobbed.

'Well, why would you go all crazy cleaning because of that?' Lavender asked.

'I dunno. I've just been worried about Harry. Ron said he was okay, but he's been at the hospital wing all night.''

'Then go visit him!' Hermione said. ,I must go, because he has to now something new by now!'

'You can't. Madam Pomfrey is going crazy, that she's not only healing Harry after a fight with You-Know-Who but also with Malfoy and the 'peaceful' students of Hogwarts.' She said.

'Argh! I don't care! I have to find out what's going on!' Hermione said and stumbled out of the dorm.

She as fast as she could. She had to speak with Harry before any one else did.
Hermione gasped between the breaths as she turned a sharp corner but got pushed back as she felt a hand grabbing her arm cutting off her way.

'Let me go! I need to speak with Harry.' She yelled, but the hand was too strong.

'Beautiful…'' She said ironically and gave up, turning to stand face to face with Snape.

'I do not like you running about in the corridors miss Granger.' Snape sneered.

'I'm on an important mission! To Alderaan! No I mean, to the hospital wing!' oh this was pointless – it was Snape! He almost sneezed at her.
'What's wrong? You don't use to get that mad about Harry and Ron running in the corridor professor.' She tried to ask neatly.

'That is, miss Granger, because you've behaved unacceptably the past few weeks!' He said a little above a whisper.

'What? Harry and Ron always stalk the corridors or the Forbidden Forest looking for death eaters they can be killed by! Why me? I haven't done the slightest thing lately!' She argued back.

'Slightest? Several things have some to my attention though. You perhaps think cursing Albus Dumbledore was not a thing… miss Granger? If you are as smart, as everybody – including you – think, you could have stopped that from happening. How would you like the grounds of Hogwarts being tarred up, all because of the bushy little know-it-all, miss Granger?' He said crossing his arms giving her his best glare.

'If he got the hots for me, he'd better come up with something smarter than that' Hermione shook out the thought. Snape didn't have the hots for her! It was professor Snape. Anyway, there would be a new teacher in love with a new student in a couple of days. If you listen to gossip that is. Hopefully.

'Look I don't know what's wrong with… you have to realize that it was not me who jinxed professor Dumbledore and you know that perfectly well. And if you refer to that incident where I seemed to have mixed up the… uh… houses, you seem to…' Hermione said but trailed off… Oh no what if she caught Snape in something where he had actually protected her though she was one who had made the mistake?

'You didn't mix up the houses miss Granger…'

oh gods, there it was again

She was about to run off, but Snape was the one already taking his leave, practically running down the corridor. She glanced confused after him fastened to the ground.

What the hell was that?

'Mione? What's going on?' it was Harry.

'Harry… Snape just ran off. I've got absolutely no idea! We were just talking. I was about to mention the incident where I sleepwalked into the Slytherin house. Then he practically ran away.'

'You really got you ways with boys Mione.'

'It could have been because you came!' She defended herself knowing perfectly well how ridiculous that had just sounded.

'Yes because Snape is terrified to confront me.' Harry said giving her a sarcastic glare. 'I'm just happy he didn't see me, in favour of loosing and extra fifty points!' Harry growled.

'I know, but it wasn't because of me! I didn't say anything!' Hermione said.
'But how's your injures after the fight this night?'' Asked Hermione

'Oh I'm fine… It wasn't a big deal, cause Snape came.'

'So how many points did you loose?' She asked him.

'See that's what I HAVE to tell you! He didn't take any points. He took them all from Malfoy! He must be really mad at him. Which I can understand because I think I've figured this thing out finally!'

'Then tell me!'' She said urgently.

'Well, you weren't in the Slythering room, that's for sure! Cause I said to Malfoy that it was ridicules to attack the Gryffindor room because of some sleepwalking girl interrupting the Slytherins. And then Snape came and said that Hermione wasn't in the Slytherin room, but that Malfoy and his friends jinxed you to think that you were! I now it sounds very weird, but I think it was to tease you because you were sleep walking.' Harry said proud to have found a solution.

'So, what you're saying is, that after I slept in the hospital wing I sleep walked and met Malfoy who mad me believe I was in the Slythering house… and then they used me to get into our common room and do funny things about the room… I am so confused.' Hermione sighed and bumped down on a bench in the corridor.
