A.N.: First of all I want to apologize a million times for not updating sooner. Don't you hate it when things in the real world get in the way? No? I'm the only one? Ok just going to go crawl into a whole now. No I'm just kidding and being a dork so without further ado chapter 3! Oh plus I switch some point of views in this one, I'll try not to make it confusing.

Disclaimer: I do not own Mr. Potter but my good buddy (well I don't know her but) J.K. Rowling does!

Chapter 3: Thoughts of the Dangerous Minds

Harry thought long and hard. About what he didn't know but he thought maybe the time would pass faster if he did. Well it didn't. After a solid two minutes and twenty-eight seconds Harry couldn't take it anymore. (A.N.: Who knew thinking about nothing would be so boring? lol) He swirled around in his chair he was surprised that everyone was occupied. Why hadn't he thought of bringing anything just in case? Cho was drawing on a piece of parchment, Malfoy was playing with a deck of cards, Hermione was reading her copy of Hogwarts, A History, and Ginny had even moved her stare from the blackboard to his shoelace. Harry was amazed.

Hermione stared at page forty-five of her favorite light reading material, Hogwarts, A History. This page was her favorite because it explained the history behind the very first Sorting Hat. Even thought normally this would be fun and relaxing was she in the library or the common room she felt completely bored and anxious. She noticed Harry was moving but didn't bother to speak or show any kind of movement. Even thought she didn't want to hear Malfoy pound insults her way she longed for some kind of social interaction with another human being.

Cho stared at her drawing for the longest time. She had a very good talent at drawing cartoons and Japanese Animation. Most times she drew comic strips and sent them to her youngest brother in the mail. He loved her comic strips but he was also suffering from lung cancer. Anything Cho could do to make him laugh she would do a hundred times if only to make him forget he was different. He was still too young to understand that he couldn't get out of bed and go play. It was heartbreaking to live with. Come to think of it Cedric used to like her comics too. Cho let stray tears fall from her face unnoticed and quickly wiped them away. She wasn't about to be insulted again.

Draco shuffled his deck of playing cards. He had learned how to shuffle from his mother who used to play cards all the time with her high society Bridge Club. She taught him how to play Solitaire and sometimes when she was feeling sneaky she taught him Poker. He set up his cards. Starting to the right and working left placing one card on the desk face down and once he reach the seventh card he turned it right side up. He did this repeatedly but each time going in order from seventh card to sixth to fifth, etc. He drew three cards from the remaining small deck. He began placing card where they needed to be alternating red and black. He had tried to teach this to Crabbe and Goyle once but they were so stupid that he quite after Crabbe attempted to eat the ace of spades. Ever since he had met Crabbe and Goyle he thought Crabbe wasn't the dumber of the two but that set him straight. They are both equally stupid.

Ginny stared into space thinking about nothing. (A.N.: I'm guessing Ginny is easily entertained huh?) She had changed her glare from the black board to Harry's shoelaces. She never noticed how clean they were. She had never seen him wear those shoes (and believe me she has looked plenty of times) before. Ginny started to think about how Ron would start screaming at her once he found out how she got in detention. She didn't even want to start thinking about what mum would say. She could see it now....Her mom receiving the owl from Professor McGonagall saying that she received detention and on what circumstances. Her mum's cheeks start turning red and a dangerous expression comes across her face as she reached for her Howler Stationary Kit and starts scribbling furiously....Ginny shook violently. She had to stop thinking about her mum.

A.N.: Ok this is a little short. I thought I should say what's going through their heads every other chapter just to get some different point of views going. Once again very sorry for not updating sooner but things get in the way. Pesky things!

Please review!
