Hermione woke the next morning in Draco's arms in his room. She turned over and
tried to crawl out of bed without waking him. When she turned over, Draco put his arm
over her waist and only pulled her closer to him. "Morning love." "Morning Draco."
"Hermione." "Ya?" "Would you be my girlfriend?" "I would love to," she replied as a
smile crept across her lips. "How in the world am I ever going to break this to Ron and
Harry? Both of them would kill you." "We don't have to tell them." "I Love you." "I
Love you too, Draco." "So, do you think we should get up?" "No," he replied. "Let's stay
here for awhile longer."
About forty-five minutes later, they got up and showered. The came down to the Great
Hall and separated. "Let's not tell them yet." "Okay, see you later." She entered the Great
Hall and to her great surprise there was only Ginny. She plopped down next to her friend
with a concerned look in her eyes. "Where are Ron and Harry?" "I have no idea. I
haven't seen either of them since dinner yesterday." "Same here, that's quite odd
to miss breakfast especially for Ron," Hermione replied. "I know, I'm really starting to
worry about them," Ginny replied in a chocked voice. "It's okay Gin, they'll be fine."
Meanwhile, Harry and Ron were up and about the castle. Somehow they managed to
sneak by the Great Hall and out of the school without getting caught. They snuck out into
the Forbidden Forest with great haste. Suddenly from behind, both Ron and Harry were
hit with a knife in the center of their back's. Hermione shot up out of her seat in mid-
thought. "What is it?" "It's Harry and Ron, their hurt. I can feel it and their in the
Forbidden Forest. I'll go find them. Go get Professor Dumbledore and Madame Pomfry."
Hermione ran out of the hall as fast as her legs would carry her. Meanwhile, Ginny ran to
the hospital wing so fast that it took her several minutes to catch her breath. "It's… Harry
and…Ron. Hermione…just had…a…feeling. She's…pretty sure…that their hurt…and in
the Forbidden Forest. Come quick!"
Hermione ran to where her intuition led. There was Harry and Ron with a knife in
each of their back's. She sank onto the ground next to them and half screamed half cried
out in grief and frustration. A few minutes later appeared Ginny with Dumbledore and
Pomfry. Dumbledore cast a spell and Harry and Ron were now floating. He then
apperated Madame Pomfry and the two to the Hospital wing. After he apparted Ginny,
Hermione, and himself there as well. Pomfry had pulled the knife's out and now both
beds were covered in blood. She cast a few spells: one for medicine and one for the mess.
A few moments later, the two were awake. "HARRY, RON! We're sooooooo glad you
guys are okay. We were both so worried about you." Both of the girls went up and sat on
the beds of the two boys. They talked for awhile and then were sent off. After they left
the Hospital wing, Draco was running down the hallway towards Hermione and Ginny.
"Hermione, I had a feeling that something wasn't right. Are you okay? What's going
on?" "I'll explain everything to both of you. Why don't we go to the Heads' dorm?"
