Okay sorry it took awhile to update! -
Third Chapter
Her foot steps echoed off the walls as she found herself in the empty library. She glanced at her watch before heading towards a small oak table, she had 45 minutes before she needed to get back to the dormitory. Flopping down in a chair she took out Standard book of spells Grade 7 and began to read. Slowly her eyes got heavy and soon enough she fell asleep.
Before she knew it someone was shaking her.
"Go away" she muttered trying to swat the person away.
"THUNK" Someone ripped the book out from underneath her so her head hit the hard oak table.
"Ow" she moaned. Finally she opened her eyes trying to spot the person attacking her.
It was Ron
"Hermione Wake up! I saw Professor Snape heading this way!" He shook her some more.
"Okay okay I'm up!" Hermione wiped some saliva off the side of her mouth while standing up.
Snapes foot steps could now be heard echoing though the vast hallways.
"Harry told me to give you this" Ron whispered handing Hermione the Marauders Map. "Now go hide!"
Hermione nodded looking down at the map. It showed her and Ron standing and Snape walking right towards them. He only needed to turn the next corner to be in the library, one turn to get her in deep trouble. Ron pushed her behind a bookshelf out of eyesight and made hand gestures to make her get moving. Hermione tapped her wand on the map and whispered "mischief managed" She got down on all fours and crawled under tables.
"Look who it is."
Hermione froze, Snapes dreadful voice echoed though her head a million times. Her heart sank and her stomach lurched sending shivers down her spin. She got caught and she knew it.
Slowly she raised her head to find Snape in the door way of the library and he was staring right at Ron.
A thousand pounds lifted off Hermione, she smirked at how dumb she can be. Snapes voice broke the silence.
"Weasly, I thought you patrol the halls?"
Hermiones heart was beating in her ears. She knew Ron wasn't a good liar and there was no way he could fool Snape even if he wasn't lying.
"I heard a noise and came to investigate, Professor" Ron said, and it actually sounded quite convincing.
"Do you know what it was" Snape sounded like he was getting mad.
Ron could tell he was eyeing Hermiones book that lay open on the oak table.
"It was this book" Ron said picking it up and putting it on the nearest shelf "It fell off the top shelf"
Snape was looking furious, it seemed he had no way to get Ron in trouble. Hermione didn't want to stick around any more. She quietly crawled to the exit in which Snape entered, stood up and started to run back the dormitory. Half way there she looked down at her watch, it was midnight.
"Wham!" Hermiones body collided with a hard cool figure. She tumbled over and landed on her back and yelled under her breath. She sat up on her elbows and looked at the giant figure. It was a wall. Hermione started to laugh a little and cursed at herself. She stood up and brushing off some dirt. She stopped her laughing but more laughter was still coming from a dark figure leaning against a wall. Malfoy emerged from the shadows giving Hermione his usual smirk.
"You know Granger, you should use that language" he smirked even more.
"I wouldn't have too if you weren't around" She replied glaring at him.
Malfoy stood there and watched Hermione for a moment.
"You dropped something" he nodded to the parchment on the ground.
Hermione looked at the ground and there laid the Marauders Map. She hesitated but bent down and gathered the Map. Right before standing upright Malfoy spoke again.
"Woah Hermione! Are you sure your not dating Potty or Weasel?"
Hermione was confused for a moment but then caught on quickly. She looked down at her red tank-top and noticed Malfoy had a clear shot at her cleavage. She stood up quickly and scowled.
"Your sick"
"No need to get mad Granger, it's only a complement" he said with an offended look on his face.
He was being sarcastic and Hermione wanted to laugh but held it back because other voices came from down the hall. It sounded a lot like Professor Snape and Professor Dumbledore. Hermione looked for the nearest place to hide. She quickly spotted a door, ran over to it and swung it open. She was about to step inside when Malfoy stepped in front of her. His body was muscular and took up the middle of the door so Hermione couldn't sneak by.
"What are you doing" she whispered madly
"Ether both of us get in trouble or you let me hide in here with you."
Hermione thought for a moment but she agreed to be stuck alone with Malfoy in a room for a few minutes, over being in detention with him for a week.
Okay this maybe shorter than my other chapters but I don't care. Anyways I should have the next chapter updated by next Friday or Saturday. Find out what Malfoy and Hermione are gonna do when they get locked in the closet!
