CHAPTER 3: Visiting Saint Mungo's
Malfoy wouldn't leave his bed. He couldn't. Why? He thought. He answered himself. Because you need to visit her. But I can't leave my bed, he argued with himself. You could if you just moved. He thought for a moment. You've got a point there, he thought to himself, and got up to get dressed.
But Dumbledore was waiting for him instead of Harry, Ron and Ginny (Who actually told Harry to listen to Malfoy's story before he blew up), but he could see them talking by the lake. "They're ready for you." Dumbledore said to Malfoy. And with a wave of his hand, He gestured Malfoy outside.
Meanwhile, while the three were waiting for Malfoy to visit Hermione at Saint Mungo's, Harry, Ron, and Ginny were pacing around; actually, only Ginny was pacing, while Harry and Ron played wizard's chess. Ginny finally stopped and looked for Malfoy. "He's coming…with Dumbledore!" she said, and they ran up to them. It was true; Dumbledore was indeed walking down the path with Malfoy, both looking blank. "Here he is," Said Dumbledore, gesturing toward Malfoy. Malfoy tried to smirk, but instead he felt tears in his eyes – Malfoys didn't cry, yet he couldn't help feeling pity for Hermione - no, Granger - no, the mudblood.
Hermione was laying (more like sitting up) in her bed, doing make–up work for school, when Harry, Ginny, Ron and Malfoy walked in. Hermione's chocolate eyes looked at Malfoy first, blushing. "Um…what's Malfoy doing here?" Malfoy's eyes widened like he wasn't supposed to be here…"I dunno, Professor Dumbledore just took me here, so I came, and…" he trailed off, as he tilted his head from side to side. Hermione's eyebrows rose. "Well that made a lot of sense. If your head was any bigger though, I doubt you'd have any sense at all." She said sarcastically. Ron and Harry covered their laughter by coughing and sneezing. Ginny, however, was very creative while hiding the fact that she too, was sniggering: she yawned. But then she stopped. "Um, can I talk to Hermione…alone?"
Sorry so short. I'm working really hard and thought it would be a good time to end.
