Too Long In The Rain
Chapter 13
Hermione looked at him as he stood up and walked to her door leaving her stuff outside the door. She looked at her portrait and realized that Fidelis wasn't at it. She reached into her pocket and got out her enchanted keys that she had made in case she needed to get into her room and Fidelis wasn't at his post, they were enchanted so she alone could use them. She fumbled with them because her hands were shaking.
"Herm-o-ninny…" He started but she cut him off.
"My name is Hermione." She said coldly still trying to fit her key into the keyhole.
Krum sighed and reached for her wrist stopping her fumbling," Please listen to me."
She yanked her arm back easily and practically hissed out," Never."
Krum grabbed her upper arm and gripped it tightly," Listen to me!"
Hermione tried to yank her arm back since she had her wand in her bag, which she had dropped and didn't think of accio-ing it," Let go of me!"
"Not until you listen to me!"
Hermione glared at him then started yelling," Help! Help!"
Oliver was walking back to him room when he heard Hermione yelling, instantly he started running as fast as he could. When he arrived on the scene he saw Krum trying to quiet Hermione who had quieted upon seeing Oliver. When Krum heard her stop yelling he turned to see what had quieted her so quickly, when he saw Oliver he said," Hello, I don't mean to be rude but ve are trying to have a conversation, so if you vouldn't mind leaving…"
Oliver shook his head and took a step closer," How about you let go of Hermione."
Krum turned back to Oliver, keeping a firm grip on Hermione," I do not think so, this does not concern you."
"It bloody well does." He said looking at Hermione who hadn't broken eye contact with him. She finally took her chance and ripped her arm away from Krum and back away from him.
Krum looked at her and then glared at Oliver and said," Vhy don't you just mind your own business?" Oliver glared right back and took a step forward but Hermione got in the middle of them.
"Hey, lets just stop it right here. You two are not gonna fight do you hear me?" Hermione said sternly.
Krum nodded," She's right, meet me outside in thirty minutes."
Hermione gasped," What? No!"
Oliver nodded," Make it ten and you've got a deal."
Hermione turned to him," Oliver!"
Oliver looked at her and then back at Krum," See you there." He turned and walked into his room while Krum looked at Hermione then walked away, to outside.
Hermione went into Oliver's room after him and said," You cannot seriously be doing this!"
Oliver looked at her then went back to taking off his robes (he has clothes underneath…)," Of course I am."
She brushed a hand through her hair," Why? Why do you need to fight him?"
"He hurt you Hermione, don't you care." He said.
Hermione's eyebrows furred together," He didn't hurt me Oliver, I mean my wrist is a little sore but…"
"That's not what I meant." He said with his back turned to her and closed his eyes in a wince; he hadn't meant to say that.
"What do you mean?" She asked softly.
Oliver turned to her then grabbed his wand and walked to the door," I don't know."
Hermione followed him," Oliver, talk to me, please!"
He didn't stop and didn't slow up," About what?"
She kept pace with him," You can't just be fighting him because he grabbed my wrist! What else is it? Is it your manliness?"
He shook his head," No."
They were now a few yards from the pitch when Hermione grabbed Oliver's arm making him stop," Please Oliver."
He looked down at her and said," You're right it's not just because he grabbed your wrist."
She threw her hands up," Than what is it!"
He paused then kissed her.
