Chapter 13

"Hermione, wake up." Draco was standing over her.
"I am." Draco smiled.
"Happy Christmas"
"Happy Christmas." Hermione smiled.
"Come on. There are presents to be opened." Draco walked out of her room.
"Okay. I'm here." Hermione said as she was coming down the stairs.
"Great! Now come sit on the couch"
"I'm coming.I'm coming. I'm coming.I'm here."Hermione said as she sat on the couch.
"Good"
"You go first." Hermione smiled.
"Okay." Draco picked up one of his presents. "Oh, it's from...you. Imagine that." Hermione laughed.
"Well, come on, open it." Draco opened it. What he found was a watch. Muggle bling-bling if you will. "Wow.Hermione this must have been a fourtune"
"Don't worry about that." Draco out the watch on. Perfect fit.
"Wow. Thank you so much Hermione." Draco said.He got up and gave her a kiss.
"Okay. Now you"
"Okay, from my mum. Oh gosh. I'm scared to look." Draco laughed.
"Come on. Just open it." "Alright." Hermione opened it to find a dress inside the box. "Ohmygosh. This is gorgeous." Hermione pulled out a baby blue sparkly dress. It was a spagetti strap and about knee- length. "Wow. I like it." Draco said. Hermione looked at him,as if saying 'How did I know'
"It's beautiful. Wow. I'll have to write her later. Okay, you're turn." Draco picked up a box.
"From...mum.I am so looking forward to opening this." Draco said sarcastically. Draco opened it to find a nice suit. It was a dark green three piece.
"Wow. Those look nice"
"Yeah they do. Wow. I guess I'll have to write her later too. Wow. Okay, your turn"
"Okay. Umm...okay, from my dad." Hermione said as she opened the box. "Books. Oh, these are the ones that have been on order for a month! The Defense Against the Dark Arts books! Oh,good now we can use these for our lessons"
"Awsome! Okay, one left"
"Huh"
"One left...hold on." Draco ran to his room. He came back with a small box. "Here is my gift to you." Draco said and kissed her forehead.
"Okay." Hermione opened the small box to find a necklace. The charm was a green serpent with red eyes."Oh my gosh. Draco this"
"This symbolizes us Hermione. The green serpent being the Slytherin,me,and the red eyes, the Gryffindor,you. It shows that we have come together, not only as friends but more than that"
"Oh Draco, it's beautiful. I love it." Hermione smiled and Draco smiled back.Hermione pulled Draco into her arms. She kissed him gently.
"Well, I'm glad you like it." Draco said quietly.Draco put the necklace on Hermione and pulled her into his arms. They stayed like that for a few minutes.
"Come on. Let's go to Gryffindor Tower. I've got to give everyone their presents"
"Okay. Let's go"

"Hey guys!" Hermione said as she stepped into the Gryffindor commonroom. "Hey! Come on you two! You've got presents to open!" Ginny called. Hermione and Draco smiled and walked over.
"Hermione open one frist." Harry said.
"Okay. This one is from...Harry." Hermione smiled. "Let's see...It is a Potions kit. Wow Harry! Thanks!" Hermione smiled and gave Harry a hug.
"You have enough ingredients to make any potion known to the wizard kind." Harry said smiling.
"Awsome! Okay...Ginny, you go." Hermione said.
"Alright...From...Ron...oh boy." Everyone laughed. "It's a bunch of things from Zonko's! Oh yeah"
"Ron!"Hermione said glaring at Ron.
"What!? She's the youngest Weasley, she's got to carry the name!" Ron said.
"Hermione, calm down. I won't use often. Only when they are absolutely necessary." Ginny said. Hermione was still a little skeptical though.
"Okay. Ron, you go." Ginny said.

After all gifts were open, everyone decided to take a walk out on the grounds.
"So, Draco, when do think Voldemort is going to come after us?" Harry said as they were walking toward the Quidditch pitch.
"Soon.I don't know how soon, but soon." Draco was holding Hermione's hand. He squeezed it at the comment.
"It doesn't matter. We're ready." Hermione said.
"Yeah. Way to be optimistic Hermione!" Ginny said sarcastically.
"Well we are! I think our team knows just about every spell, jinx, and hex known to wizard kind." Hermione said.
"Yeah, so what? if we get out there in the middle of it, who says anyone will actually remember anything they were taught." Ron said.
"They will! You'll be the one that's so scared he won't know what to do!" Hermione said back to Ron.
"Probably." Everyone laughed.
"It's getting late. Let's head back up for dinner." Draco said.

"'Night guys! See you tomorrow." Hermione said as she and Draco seperated from their friends to head back up to their common room.
"So...you tired?" Draco asked.
"Nope. None whatsoever. You"
"Nope. So what do you want to do"
"Uhh...let's...go...outside." Hermione said.
"It's freezing out there"
"Well then Mr. Obvious...you think of something to do"
"Okay then, I will." Draco said the password and entered the common room. It was a mess. Everything was overturned. Papers, books, and random items were all over the place. "I think I know what we can do"
"What's that?" Hermione said.
"Go to Dumbledore. Now." Draco grabbed Hermione's hand and ran out of the common room toward Dumbledore's office.
"Draco! What's going on?" Hermione said as she ran along side Draco.
"It was a warning. They're coming"
