In the Moonlight

Raid walked in to the library in a daze. Draco Malfoy had just kissed her. She was quite surprised, to say the least. She found Hermione and sat down next to her, Hermione was engrossed in her book and did not look up as Raid sat down.

"He…just…me…oh dear." Stammered Raid.

Hermione looked up at Raid.

"Wow, hair." Hermione said. Then noticing the dazed look on Raids face. "Are you ok? You look a bit… out of it."

Raid immediately snapped out of her daze. She smiled at Hermione.

"What? Oh I'm fine. What are you reading?" She said as normally as possible.

Hermione didn't look convinced but let it go.

They spent the afternoon in the library, Raid took out her mini-disk player and allowed the loud rock music to calm her. She held a quill over a piece of parchment she was meant to be writing a History essay on but couldn't think of anything to write. She sat there like that for ten minutes before putting the pen down and taking up a book to read. Her eyes never moved from the same spot on the same page Hermione noticed. However she ignored it, resolving to ask Raid what was bothering her when she was slightly more 'with it', she seemed slightly shaken.

Raid was perfectly normal in all appearances, except for her blue hair, for the rest of the afternoon. She chatted and laughed with Hermione over dinner and Hermione forgot that Raid had acted strangely earlier that day. When they got back to the common room later in the evening Raid laughed hysterically and Hermione fumed over one of the first years who had accidentally been turned in to a small cow, by one of the Weasley twins new skiving sweets.

"Too much newt juice." Fred managed to gasp to Raid, through their hysterical laughter.

Finally, when Raid had caught her breath she made her way over to her favourite armchair by the window that looked out over the grounds of the castle. She glanced out of the window and saw a lithe figure walking towards the lake, she watched as the moonlight flashed off their blonde hair. Draco, she thought.

Making her way to the portrait, she called to Hermione, who was sternly talking to the Weasley twins who were trying very unsuccessfully to look serious, that she was going for a walk.

Swiftly Raid made her way out to the school grounds and towards the lake. She saw the shadowy figure sitting on a rock by the lake. He looked slightly menacing in the dark and Raid's resolve almost failed. But she reminded herself she was not afraid of anything, and walked confidently up to the figure. She sat down on the rock and looked out over the lake, watching as the moon escaped from the dark clouds and lit up the murky waters.

The two of them sat in comfortable silence for a minute or so.

"I'm sorry about yesterday." Draco said still staring out at the lake.

Raid looked at him questioningly.

"Kicking your skateboard and snapping at you." He reminded her.

"Oh that, don't worry about it," Raid replied. "Muggles aren't all that bad you know." she said gently.

Draco made a noise that sounded like a 'hrumph'.

"They're not. Believe me." Raid insisted. "I don't agree with what you said this afternoon by the way." She finished quietly.

"Which bit?" He asked, his eyes not leaving the lake.

"The bit about me being in Slytherin, just because she was. I'm nothing like her." Raid said calmly.

Draco gave a short laugh.

"But you are like her, whether you want to be or not. Its in your eyes. They are black because her evil is in you." He said, turning his head to look in her eyes.

"Everyone has evil in them Draco." Raid snapped. "In some, more so than others. But you always have a choice, you don't have to use it, there is always a choice." She looked pointedly at Draco. Then got up and began to walk away.

Draco got up.

"Eriador wait." He shouted. This time she heard him and stopped. But she didn't turn round.

He walked up to and turned her round.

"I understand what you're saying, but can we talk about my evil side some other time?" He pleaded. "Did you agree with the other thing I said this afternoon?" He asked quietly, looking at the floor.

"I don't know." Raid whispered, staring at the sky.

Draco put his hand to her chin and leant down to kiss her but she sharply pulled away and looked straight down.

"What's the matter?" Draco asked sounding hurt.

"Nothing." Raid stammered. "It's just, well, I've never.." She stopped and looked away, avoiding Draco's searching eyes.

"Raid. Raid look at me." Draco commanded. Shyly Raid raised her head, in the moonlight Draco could see her cheeks had blushed a light scarlet. He pushed a stray strand of blue hair behind her ear. "Raid I don't care."

He lowered his head and gently kissed her. As he pulled away from Raid he looked in to her dark eyes, she looked strangely vulnerable but she was smiling. He wrapped his arms around her. Slowly, hesitantly Raid slid her arms around his waist, and rested her head on his shoulder. In the darkness they embraced.

In the Gryfindor common room Hermione sat reading a book she had borrowed off Raid. Harry came over and sat in the chair in front of her looking uncomfortable.

"If you've come to tell me to stay away from Raid, you might as well not bother, I've told you that you can't tell me what to do." Hermione said icily without looking up from her book.

"I've err, come to apologise."

Hermione looked up from her book.

"I've been a bit of an idiot. I've thought it over and I realise that I can't tell you what to do and who to be friends with." Harry said sincerely.

"That's very noble of you Harry. But really I'm not the one you should be apologising to. Raid isn't a bad person, she's shown me nothing but friendship this week." Hermione replied shortly.

"Yes I err may have misjudged her. And I will apologise to her as well." Harry said sheepishly.

Hermione then smiled at him.

"We all make mistakes Harry, I'm sure she will understand." She said gently.

"You think so?" Harry asked.

"I'm sure."

Harry looked satisfied. He sat back and looked out of the window. It looked like a storm was brewing. The wind was getting up. He glanced down at the grounds of the castle and saw a couple kissing in a patch of moonlight. He saw blond hair flicker in the light and blue hair shine in the darkness. He gaped.

"She's…She's kissing Malfoy!" He exclaimed.

Hermione glanced out of the window, she looked momentarily shocked, then she shrugged and went back to reading her book.

"I told you she was bad news. Now she's snogging the enemy! Surely that shows you she's evil! I'm not apologising now!" Harry said angrily to Hermione.

Hermione looked up patiently.

"Just because she's snogging Malfoy doesn't means she's a bad person Harry." She said this slowly, as if she thought Harry wouldn't understand.

"Yes it does! Only a bad person would like Malfoy! He's horrible to everyone." Harry shouted now.

Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Go away Harry." She sighed.

"She'll only end up hurting you Hermione, just remember I said that." Harry snarled.

Hermione apparently hadn't heard, she was engrossed in her book again.

I can not think of anything else to write. Oh dear. Well what do you think? Good? Bad? Indifferent? Review Review!!!
