Malfoy Remembers

It was a week after the whole 'Beastie-Boy' incident, and Malfoy was still trying to get information out of Hermione; without anyone knowing of course.

"Malfoy for the hundredth time: LEAVE ME ALONE!" Hermione shouted as she picked up her bag and made towards the portrait hole.

"Where are you going? It's Saturday, no classes." Malfoy pointed out.

"I'm aware of what today is, and for your information I'm meeting Harry and Ron down in the Great Hall." Hermione said matter-of-factly.

"What for? Especially when you're supposed to be explaining to me about-"

"I'm not supposed to be explaining anything to you!" Hermione interrupted.

"Dammit! It's a personal part of my life and your intruding! Now I demand to know how you found out about that!" Malfoy yelled.

"…"

"No bullshit!" Malfoy added.

Still silence.

"Don't ignore me! Tell me NOW!"

A simple chuckle escaped Hermione's lips. Malfoy's face was so red that it reminded her of how Ron's face would get when he was mad.

"I was wondering when you were going to get angry about this. To think that you were being civil about this the whole time. Now tell me, is that because you were embarrassed about me knowing or is it that you were scared that if you ticked me off I'd tell your little secret to everyone?" Hermione asked coldly.

"You stupid mudblood!" was all Malfoy said before he went to his room and slammed the door shut.

Hermione just smiled and walked out of the Heads' common room.

"Hey Hermione, over here." Harry called to Hermione as she descended the steps leading to the Great Hall.

"Hey, what took you so long." Ron asked as she walked up to them.

"Hi Harry. Hi Ron. I was… reading a book… and lost track of time." Hermione lied.

Harry and Ron seemed to buy Hermione's little lie as someone walked up behind her.

"Typical Hermione. Always getting lost in a book." the person said.

Hermione turned around and saw…

"Ginny! It's been awhile since I last saw you." Hermione said as she hugged her friend.

"That's because you're always in the library or in your room." Ron pointed out.

"Yeah. Are you… avoiding us?" Harry hesitantly asked.

Hermione felt bad when he asked this. He sounded concerned and worried. 'How can I tell him I'm avoiding Malfoy.' Hermione thought.

"Um… all I can say is… is… is that I'm not avoiding you."

"Y- you're not a- avoiding m- me are you?" Ron stuttered.

"No. I'm not avoiding any of you." Hermione said as she looked from Ron to Harry and then to Ginny.

"If it's not us, then who is it?" Ron asked.

'Uh! Nosy little booger. Why is he being so inquisitive?' Hermione thought as she mentally rolled her eyes.

"Well…" Hermione began.

Ginny, sensing Hermione's uneasiness, interrupted her. "Come on guys, Hagrid's waiting."

"Harry and Ron shrugged as they headed out towards the half giant's hut.

"Thank you." Hermione whispered to Ginny as they followed Harry and Ron.

"It's okay. As long as you tell me everything later." Ginny whispered back.

'Oh great.' Hermione sarcastically thought.

Back in the Heads' Common Room

"Stupid mudblood. She's always pissing me off. If she'd just tell me how she knows, then I wouldn't bother her anymore. Rrrr! That damned know-it-all!" Malfoy thought as he paced his room. He was thinking of ways to make Hermione tell him, but none of them came out good. If he threaten or hurt her she can tell the whole school; but if he isn't direct with her, she'll think he was a joke and wouldn't tell him anything.

"Damn!" he yelled as he left his room and entered the common room.

He was through with thinking of a way to get information out of Hermione, so he was going to go do his transfiguration homework on the couch. When he sat down and reached for his parchment and quill, that was already in the room, he saw a cocoon hanging from the corner of the table.

"What the hell?" Malfoy mumbled. He pulled out his wand and slightly poked the thing, hoping it wouldn't hex him or squirt goo at him.

He continued to stare at it until he realized what it was. "A cocoon." He barley whispered. He then suddenly remembered his first night of being head boy. 'Yeah I remember now. The mudblood had a caterpillar in her hair. Man, that was hilarious. It would've been even funnier if it would have cocooned in her h-… wait a minute.' Malfoy interrupted his own thoughts as a jolt of a memory came to him. In his head he kept saying caterpillar, as if it was his mantra. '…caterpillar, caterpillar, something about a caterpillar.'

"I remember!" Malfoy practically screamed. "The park, the sand box, the girl, the caterpillar, and father dragging me away! I remember all, but I still don't understand how Granger knows- unless… that girl in the sand box must have been her. Yeah, it makes perfect sense. The messy hair, the annoying attitude. Where did she get off in calling me Beastie-Boy. Wait 'till that know-it-all gets here."

Outside of Hagrid's Hut

"Bye Hagrid." Harry said as he ran to catch up with the others.

"Can you believe Hagrid has a new spider? And has the nerve to call it a pet." Ron said nervously as his face began to turn green.

"Hagrid just has a fondness for arachnids." Hermione stated.

"Yeah, well you weren't there with me and Harry when we were surrounded by thousands of them. It was terrifying, wasn't it Harry." Ron said as he held his stomach. Still green in the face.

"Yeah. I'm just glad your dad's car came and picked us up." Harry said.

"Just what were you doing in the Forbidden Forest anyway?" Ginny asked.

"Well, we were trying to find out who opened the Chamber of Secrets." Harry said as he looked to see Ginny's expression.

"Oh." Ginny mumbled as she blushed slightly.

"Yeah. You and Hermione weren't in danger like us." Ron said a little boastfully. He seemed to stop turning green.

"How can you say I wasn't in danger. I was being controlled by You-Know-Who!" Ginny yelled.

"And I was petrified. If I hadn't have brought that mirror with me I could've died." Hermione argued.

"Okay, okay. I admit you, were in danger. Just not as much as me or Harry." Ron said which earned him a punch in the arm from Ginny as Hermione rolled her eyes at him. "What?" Ron asked, "I had to put up with Lockhart."

"You're retarded!" Ginny said as she began to walk away from the group.

"You seem to like danger. Just don't go looking for it." Hermione joked as she ran to catch up with Ginny.

"Hey Ginny, wait up." Hermione called after the red head.

Ginny turned around with a look of utter excitement. "Okay, now that Harry and Ron are away, tell me."

"Tell you what." Hermione said confused.

"Who are you avoiding?" Ginny asked with impatience in her voice.

"Oh." was all Hermione said.

"Well…?" Ginny asked as they walked into the Entrance Hall.

"All I can say is that it's Malfoy."

"Malfoy?" Ginny yelled in shock, earning her and Hermione a few stares.

"Shh!" Hermione whispered. "Yes Malfoy. I said something to him about a week ago, and he just won't drop it." Hermione said as annoyance crept up onto her face.

"What did you say. Oh please don't tell me you told him anything personal about you that he can use as blackmail. You didn't admit your love for him, did you?" Ginny said.

"I don't love him!" Hermione yelled. People began whispering to one another as their eyes stared Hermione down.

Hermione lowered her head a she blushed. Ginny put a hand on her shoulder as she said, "I'm sorry Hermione, I was only asking. I wasn't implying that you had feelings for him or anything."

"I know. I just overreacted." Hermione muttered.

"So…," Ginny began slowly, "what did you tell him?"

"Nothing important." Hermione said as they approached the portrait door to the Heads' common room.

"It must be important if Malfoy is bugging you about it." Ginny stated.

"Well it's not." Hermione snapped.

Ginny sensed Hermione's sudden change in moods and slightly backed up. Hermione seeing this, apologized right away.

"I'm sorry Ginny. I just need to rest."

"I understand. Bye Hermione." Ginny said as turned away and began towards the Gryffindor common room.

"Complications." Hermione said.

"Indeed there are." said the man in the portrait as he opened up.

Hermione just frowned at him as she walked into the common room. She saw Malfoy leaning on the wall wit his trademark smirk on.

"Someone's a little grouchy." Malfoy said as he walked closer to Hermione.

"What are you talking about?" Hermione asked. 'I just walked in and already he's annoying me.'

"Well you just yelled at Weaslette, and that nasty little look you gave the portrait was far from happy." Malfoy said.

"Well, he gave a rather rude comment." Hermione said.

"And Weaslette?"

"She was prying in- never mind that! I'm just tired." Hermione seethed.

"Oh then I guess you're cranky." Malfoy laughed out.

Hermione glared at him as he went to his room. She too went to her room as soon as his door was closed.

Sleep was all she could think of.

A/N: Yeah, I know it's shorter than the first chap, but hell- I had writer's block. Anyway, I wonder what'll happen next chapter, if there'll be a next chapter. It all depends on the reviews.
