Chapter Five: The Brainy's Sanctuary

"RONALD WEASLEY!" screamed Hermione the next morning.

"HOW DARE YOU INVADE MY PERSONAL PROPERTY!"

"What are you on about?" asked Ron, who had just been woken up by a VERY angry Hermione.

"YOU HAD LAVENDER READ MY DIARY!"

"What! Honestly Hermione, why would I have Lavender read your diary?"

"YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHY!" she went on screaming at the top of her lungs.

"Hermione, calm down." Said a firm voice from behind her.

"YOU EXPECT ME TO CALM DOWN WHEN… WHEN HE HAD HIS GIRLFRIEND READ MY PERSONAL BUISSNESS!" said Hermione rounding on Harry.

"YES!" Harry yelled firmly back.

She sighed and then scoffed out of the room still filled with rage.

"RON!" Harry, yelling at him this time.

"WHAT!" Ron yelled back sick and tiered of getting yelled at by his friends.

"Why the bloody hell did you have Lavender read her diary? Are you mental?"

"YOU!"

"What?"

"I had Lavender read her diary for you mate." Stated Ron.

In the corridors of Hogwarts, many things are bound to happen. In years past there has been a portable swamp, messages on the walls about the Chamber of Secrets, and of course the memorable, "Draco Malfoy the amazing bouncing ferret." This day was like every other, the illegal duels between students, and the rest of the normal hustle and bustle of the students enjoying there weekend off. Hermione made her way through a crowd that surrounded two fourth years in the middle of a duel. She was headed to her favorite sanctuary, The Room of Requirement.

This room was by far the strangest room in Hogwarts. Whenever you entered it the room would become anything you needed at that moment in time. The memories of her first time using the room during her fifth year flooded back to her as she made her was up a flight of stairs and through a hidden hall. Harry, Ron, Herself, and many other students used the room to conceal their secret Dumbledore's Army meetings. Eventually Umbridge was tipped off on what was happening there and drove them out of the miraculous room. When she finally turned down the corridor that housed the room she found that she wasn't alone.

"I thought you would come here." Said Harry who was standing hidden in the shadowy corner.

"I can't get any peace can I." she said turning to leave.

"Hey don't leave." Said Harry grabbing her arm lightly to stop her from leaving.

"Please, Harry I want to think." She said trying to pull away

"Hey, what's wrong? You can tell me anything, you know that right?" he asked pulling her close, and whipping a tear off of her cheek.

"I just… I don't know… " She said beginning to cry.

He held her close and let her cry on his shoulder for awhile.

"I am so sorry Harry I didn't mean to yell at you I was just so frustrated. Ron doesn't understand that that was very privet and he shouldn't have told Lavender to read it." She said struggling to get a grip of herself.

"It's okay Hermione, I understand." Said Harry rubbing the back of her head comforting her, the best he could. His eyes fell down to her face that was now wet with tears and her eyes red from all of the sobbing.

"Lets go inside," he suggested "I know how much you come here to be alone." She nodded and the entered.

"I thought you said that no one was in the dorm when you read her diary?" said Ron in the common room after Harry had left to find Hermione.

"There wasn't anyone, I swear!" said Lavender

"Then how the bloody hell did she find out!"

"I don't know, the only thing that happened was that sphinx appeared and asked me questions. That was that only one that I talk to."

"That's it! The sphinx she must be the security system on her diary."

The room's back were covered with shelve upon shelve of any book imaginable. The floor house many squashy pillows and chairs. the walls that were not covered with shelves had pictures of Harry, Ron and Hermione in different scenery. However on the fire place mantel was a picture of just Harry and Hermione. They were at Hogsmead, laughing and talking, not a care in the world. This picture out of all was Hermione's favorite not because it was of her and Harry but because it was taken at a time were neither felt they had to save the world or somehow try and stop Voldemort. This picture showed both of them as teenagers, and nothing more. Harry stared around the room, glancing at the photos of the trio for awhile, before he noticed the one on the mantel.

"Where did you get this?" he asked Hermione picking the picture up off of the ledge.

"I don't know the room was the one that put all of that stuff together. I had nothing to do with the pictures or anything else in the room." She said as she roamed the shelves for one she hadn't read yet. Harry set the picture back on the mantel and walked over to her pretending to be interested in what she was looking for. "Harry, if you want to talk to me about something, then spill, don't make a fool of yourself by trying to act interested in books."

"I…er…" said Harry taken aback.

"Yeah Potter, go on tell us! Come on!" said emotional Hermione.

"TELL HER!" said both sides of Harry, as if reading emotional Hermione's thoughts.

"Well let's think…" started Brainy Hermione

"SHHHHH…Shut up!" shouted emotional Hermione

"Are we just going to stand there and goggle! Come on man pull yourself together…" stated Brawny Harry

"TELL HER." Said both side again

"Alright." Said Harry under his breath.

"What?" asked Hermione turning to face him.

"Oh no!" said emotional Harry

"What?"

"Not the eyes! Oh god the eyes just kill me!"

"…Er… Hermione"
