A/N: Chapter 5, people!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I walked into the common room I had to share with Draco. He was in the library, looking at some books. He turned when I came in the door.

Draco smiled. "Hey Hermione-"

I socked him in the nose. He hit the bookcase and collapsed onto the floor. "Hey yourself, you dumb bastard!"

He stared at me in disbelief. He touched his cheek. "Hermione, what the hell's gotten into you-"

"What the hell's gotten into me!" I shrieked. "What the hell's gotten into ME!" I towered over him, my eyes glowing with anger. "Malfoy, what the hell's gotten into you!"

"Oh, so now I'm Malfoy again, huh?" he asked me. I nodded, still angry. My hands instinctively gripped my hips, and I tilted my head and glared down at him.

He stood up and put his hands on my shoulders, "Come on, Hermione," I took a step back and watched his hands fall to his side.

"I don't want to talk to you, you, you bastard. I hear about what you said to your friends at lunch, and frankly I don't give a rats ass if it's true or not because it's over. Bye Malfoy." I left the room tears streaming down my face, but I couldn't let him see.

"Fine then Granger be that way."

Oh Merlin he is so mad at me, but wait I'm not supposed to care I'm free of him.

But you don't want to be.

Shut it.

I slammed my door and sat down at my desk to write my mum a letter and I decided to write Mrs. Weasley too. I haven't talked to her since this summer. I wonder how she's doing? Oh lord, I need to stop talking to myself. I just sat there thinking of what I wanted to say when I heard Malfoy call my name.

"Granger get down here Potty and Weasel-bee are here to see you." he said.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Sorry you guys I hope we can still be friends. Me and Hermione broke up and I don't know what it's about. Maybe you can find out for me. Oh here she comes, see you guys later." He had to leave, he couldn't stand to be around her.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey Hermione how's it going?" Ron looked scared like I was about to hit him

"Good I guess. And I supposed Ferret Boy told you we broke up." I said viciously.

"Yeah but why I mean everything was alright at lunch, wasn't it?" Harry answered.

"Well, when Ginny, Luna, and Lavender came looking for me earlier I kind of blew them off. I mean I was already mad at Lavender for being a gossip." I told them the whole story and when I was done they just stood there with their mouths open and all wide-eyed, it was kind of funny.

"So you're saying that the only reason Dra-Malfoy went with you was because he wanted to break you. Wow I mean he does seem like the type, but he looked like he was really hurt when he was talking to us before you came down." I scowled at them.

"Ok, ok, I see you are going to take his side, huh? Well that's ok, I guess I will just have to believe Ginny then." I started to walk off but Harry had grabbed my arm. What does he want now?

"WHAT HARRY?"

"Nothing it's just that if you heard this from Ginny then you might want to ask Malfoy yourself because I've seen the way she looks at him. It's one of those longing looks like she just wants him to herself and herself only."

I slapped him, and Ron coward afraid I was going to hit him next.

"What was that for, damn it?" he said rubbing his cheek.

"How dare you talk bad about Ginny she's my friend and she's supposed to be yours too. She would never do that to hurt me." But wait what if she would. Ok I'm going to talk to her later. I'm doing it again, stop talking to yourself Hermione, it's weird.

"Hermione, are you ok. I mean you look like you have a lot on your mind."

"As a matter of fact I do so would you please excuse me. Have a good day." At that I left back up to my room to write those letters. I sat down dipped my quill in the ink and started writing.

Dear Mum,

I just broke up with my boyfriend Draco Malfoy, but I'm not sure it was the right thing to do. If you could please owl me back with help.

Your Dearest Daughter,

Hermione

Next Mrs. Weasley.

Dear Mrs. Weasley,

Hello, this is Hermione. I just thought I'd send you an owl since I have nothing else to do. I hope you're doing good I was going out with Malfoy (I know what was I thinking), but I really did like him, correction I really do like him, but I broke up with him. It's all a long story really, I'll tell you later. Harry and Ron are doing good… and Ginny… well she's the one who got me to break up with Malfoy. I mean she didn't say to me "Hey Hermione I think you should go break up with Malfoy," but it's something that she said. Well I have to be off it's about time for dinner.

Love,

Hermione

I reread each letter making sure there were no mistakes and then placed them in separate envelopes. I made my way downstairs with the letters in my hand to find Malfoy, Harry, and Ron all in conversation, in which stopped quickly as I stepped out so most likely they were talking about me.

"Hey Harry, Ron… how are you doing? I'm off to the owlery to send my mum a letter and your mum one as well. Don't worry it's not about you. Well I best be off. Ta Ta." I walked out, no one had said one word, no one had even blinked. As I got to the owlery I saw Ginny leaving so I stopped her.

"Hey Ginny, I heard what you said to Luna and Lavender today, and I just wanted to let you know you can't have Malfoy. One because your mum would kill you, two Ron would kill you, and three I would kill you. Even though me and Malfoy don't go out you still cannot touch him you got it." she nodded and I walked past her up to the owlery. I picked out two owls and sent them on their way.
