After seeing no one there, she turned back to the lake, putting her head into her hands. "Stupid!" she mumbled under her breath. She had been in that position for a few seconds until she stood up and stared into the moonlight.
She then picked up a rock and threw it to the lake angrily.
Later in the night, she had gone up to the Heads Dormitory hoping to see Draco. On her way up, she had been thinking about what Ron said before. She thought that it might be Ron who sent the love note and she remembered what happened to Lavender's boyfriend when she knew Ron had a crush on her. And then that was when it hit her, "Oh Shit!"
She started running up the stairs thinking something might have happened to Draco. She mumbled the password and ran through the portrait hole. She arrived at the common room out of breath.
To her pleasure, he sat there at his desk doing homework. He noticed her come in and asked, "Where have you been?"
She was just panting as he stood up and went closer to her. She surprisingly jumped on him and hugged him tightly as she could. Draco felt it was kind of weird but still hugged her to feel loved.
She then started to kiss him on the lips and said, "I was worried about you." She caressed his face and kissed him again.
They broke apart after the last kiss. Hermione plopped on the couch as Draco went back to his homework. She looked at the old grandfather clock they had in the common room and it read: 9 o'clock. And she decided to take a rest.
"I'm gonna go to bed, okay?" she said going to the desk.
He looked up at her and said, "Sure, but what about our patrolling tonight?"
"Could you just wake me up at 11 o'clock?" she said batting her eyelashes.
"Oh, fine. I'll just be here doing tons of homework." he said and went back to work.
"Thanks." she said and bent down and kissed him again.
She got up went up to her room and jumped on her bed. She laid there listening to the silence. Eventually, she fell asleep.
Draco was in the common room doing his homework when he heard a gust of wind. But there couldn't be wind there because no windows or doors were open. He paused for a while, looked around but seeing nothing but an empty common room. He went back to his homework but stopped because there was someone in front of him.
He looked up but couldn't see his face since it was dark and the only lamp on was his table lamp. All he saw was that the man who stood there was about 5 feet tall (or more) and had red hair. The man spoke, "Hello, Malfloy."
Draco had remembered who the voice was but had no chance in talking back since he had cast a spell on him. He shouted, "Expelliamus!"
Hermione woke up in fright. She heard a loud thump down in the common room. She had realized that it was about time for them to go patrolling. As she went down the steps to the common room, she remembered that Draco used to fall asleep when he was doing homework and she concluded that he might have fallen down from his desk asleep.
So the sound wasn't a fright to her until she had seen what had happened. She screamed to the top of her voice.
