Chappie 8
Previously:
"Oh. Remember that room from fifth year where you found the DA after Marietta snitched to Umbridge?" I asked him.
"Yeah."
"That's where we'll be asking him. However I suspect you'll have to follow me to get there this time." I said using his trademark smirk, "Well I'm exhausted. Good-night!"
With that said I gave a quick peck on the lips and ran up to my room to get ready for bed.

(AN: I want your brutal and honest opinion. I DON'T CARE ABOUT GRAMMATICAL ERRORS MATT! LOADS OF PEOPLE HAVE WRITTEN WORSE THAN I HAVE AND YOU KNOW IT! (-8 Sorry Matt, I had to get that out of my system, and now on with the show! Oops, scratch that last part instead, on with the story! Also I'm going to make the rest of the story Hermiones' point of view unless it's in diary format, so I'm going to stop with the extra POV thing.)
I also have an analogy for you: eyes: 2:fingers?
Send me the answer if you can figure it out
Hermione's POV:
Last night it took me forever to fall asleep. I kept worrying about Ron and what Draco might do to him when we ask about he note. When I did fall asleep it was around 1 o'clock in the morning, so I was still really tired when I woke up at 7 o'clock and I couldn't figure out why I had woken up that early when I needed the sleep.
Then I heard the sharp tapping on my window.
Reluctantly I got out of bed and opened the window to let the owl in.
Only it wasn't an owl. It was a phoenix, Dumbledores phoenix Fawkes to be exact.
"Hello Fawkes. How you today?" I asked while rummaging in my trunk for the owl treats that I knew were I there.
"Do you like owl treats? I'm afraid they're all I have." I asked returning with the bag of treats and untying the letter from his leg.
The bird let out what, oddly enough, sounded like a yes. I gave him a treat and sent him on his way.
I went and put the note on the coffee table in the common room so that Draco would see it while he's waiting for me. Then I went back up the stairs to get ready.
After a quick shower I decided on wearing a blue baby tee that said "too cute for you" and black jeans with black sneakers. I also put on some cherry flavored lip gloss and was finished.
Then I went down stairs and saw Draco waiting for me, just like I knew he would.
"Draco, did you read the letter from Dumbledore?" I asked him before he could say anything.
"What letter?"
"This letter." I told him picking up the letter in question.
"Oh."
"Yeah," I said sitting down on the couch, "Get over here so we can read it."
He came over and sat on the couch next to me as I began to read (AN: dream starts here):
Mr. Malfoy and Miss Granger,
I must regretfully say there has been trouble in the Hufflepuff girls' dormitories. Because of their recent disturbances there I need you to help move the girls to their new separate rooms that have been provided for their safety. They will be moved tonight after dinner. I thank you both for your cooperation in the matter.
Sincerely,
Headmaster Albus Dumbledore

P.S.: How is planning for the Halloween ball coming along?
"The ball! I completely forgot about the ball!" I exclaimed getting up from my place on the couch and walking around the room, "This is horrible! Halloween is in three weeks, that is nowhere near enough time to plan an entire ball!"
"Hermione, relax," he said soothingly coming up behind and rubbing my arm, "We can set up one ball in three weeks. As long as we work together it will go smoothly. Anyway we have a prefects meeting tonight and we can ask them if they have any ideas the ball."
"Yeah, I guess you're right." I said turning around and giving him a kiss, "Come on, we need to get to breakfast."
I started walking to the portrait hole but when I realized Draco wasn't following me I stopped and turned around.
Draco was standing where I had left him, only now he was repeatedly pinching himself.
"Why are you doing that?" I asked him.
"Hmm? Oh, just making sure that it's true that THE Hermione Granger just said that I'm right." He said after one more pinch, "I'm not dreaming, it must be true."
"Whatever." I said before leaving without him.
Draco then ran out the portrait hole and quickly caught up with me before I got down the first staircase.
"How could you walk away from me like that? You really broke my heart." He said coming in front of me with his hands placed over his heart
"Like there was anything to break." I told him laughing.
"Ouch! I didn't know you could be so mean. You must be the heartless one."
"How did you know?" I asked grinning, " We're here. I'll go in first then you come in about two minutes later okay?"
"Okay."
"Hey Gin!" I said sitting down next to my best gal pal.
"Hey yourself. You're really late. Lunch is almost over. What took you so long?"
"Well, I got a little side tracked." And I proceeded to tell her about the letter and everything that had happened this morning.
