They walked down to the great hall to have some breakfast and talk to friends. They sat across from Seamus and Ginny, and sat next to Luna and Neville. Then Lavender came over and sat next to Hermione. Everyone was having a wonderful time until Ron tried to drag Hermione out.

"Ronald, stop it! LET GO!"

"Hermione it's time you be with a real man." He said.

"Ronald you're right." She said. Everyone was shocked to see her get up.

"Good come on."

"No Ron I'm staying right here."

"You said you wanted to be with a real man."

"Harry's being a real man; you're just being a big baby Ron." Hermione said. Ron walked away with a purple face and Hermione thought it would be fun to imagine steam come from his ears. She sat back down and Harry rewarded her on being able to fight off Ron. They finished up breakfast and went to the dungeons for potions with Snape.

"Get ingredients, take notes, and follow the instructions on the board." He said as he got out parchment and a quill. Everyone did as told and in no time they had their notes and potion ready. They didn't know what it was so they didn't touch it. Dean wanted to know what it was so he stuck his hand into it and it turned purple. Then his nose turned pink.

"Mr. Thomas," Snape said without looking up from his parchment. "That's a transformation potion it last's for a week so I'd suggest that you find the counter potion or next time don't touch what's brewing in your cauldron. Got it?"

"Yes sir." Came Dean's squeaky reply.

"Good." Snape said. "Run off to your next class now."

Everyone scattered and left the room. The whole time they were in there Hermione had a thoughtful look on her face and Harry wanted to know what she was thinking about.

"What are you thinking about?" He said.

"I'm thinking about how I'm going to get that parchment he always writes on and I'm gonna read it, but first I have to get to it. I know it's something that takes a lot of thought like a book or something but I don't think Snape would write a book. I mean he's to, there's no word in the English dictionary to describe him."

"What's an English dictionary?" Lavender asked, she had over heard the whole conversation.

"It's a book that gives a definition of each word we use in everyday life." Hermione said.

"Well what's it supposed to do, anything special?" Lavender asked.

"No, you just read it." Hermione replied.

"How boring!" Lavender said before she walked of with Pavarti. They went to Hagrid's Hut to attend the lesson being taught.

"Today 'e'll be learn'in' bout airy." He said.

They went through the lesson and Hagrid brought out a real fairy to show. They finished class and those who played Quidditch had practice.

"Okay Ginny, Lavender, and Hermione, you will take place as the beaters. Neville and I will be over there. Seamus, Dean and Collin can go behind us and the others can spread out. We'll be passing to one another at an incredibly fast speed and we'll all move around as we're doing so okay?"

" 'Kay!" some people shouted but others kept quiet.

They all passed back and forth to one another and some could pass it real fast you hardly saw it until it was right in front of you so they passed it like that to people who quickly reacted, and those people passed it to others and soon they had two triangle outside of a big circle passing to one another.

"Okay, good job now go ahead and rest and you know, practice is almost over." Harry said. Hermione went to where the girls were and they went into their locker room and took a shower. The boys did the same. Everyone was fresh and ready by the time lunch was served.

"Good job at practice Mione." Harry said.

"Thanks, you weren't too bad yourself." She replied.

"Too bad? I'm not good at all?" Harry asked teasingly.

"No you're just too bad for words to describe." Hermione answered playfully.

" I'll teach you!" Harry said before he started tickling her.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAGH! (Gasp) Harry (laugh) stop! (Gasp)

"What's the magic word?" Harry asked innocently.

"STOP!" Hermione said through her laughing.

"last I check that wasn't the magic word." Harry asked innocently, again.

"Please?" Hermione said and made a puppy dog face as she tilted her head her hair shaded her eye.

"Fine! It's not my fault you're so cute!" Harry said with pretend anger.

"It worked all the time with my dad; I never got away with anything. But my mum on the other hand, let's not go there."

They finished lunch and went to their other classes. They came back soon afterwards and did their homework. It started raining out side and Hermione ran.

"Hermione!" Harry shouted then ran after her.

She was running down corridors and she finally got to the door that led outside. When Harry arrived she lunged at him and pulled him out to twirl in the rain with her. She laughed so hard at his appearance that she fell and rolled over. Harry laid down next to her and suggested that they go somewhere where they won't get wet. They went under a tree and they just laid, Hermione looking at the sky and Harry looking at Hermione. Hermione rolled over, looked him straight in the eye, Harry thought he did something wrong and was about to speak but Hermione kissed him and said they should leave.

"we can set up decorations for the dance tomorrow." She said.

"okay, what dance?" Harry asked.

"The Halloween dance tomorrow! My gosh, you forgot?" Hermione asked.

"No, Mione will you got to the dance with me?" Harry asked.

"Collin asked me sorry." Hermione said playfully.

Harry tickled her and a while later they were in a snog session then Hermione stopped to sneeze and said, "We should probably get going as you can see I'm getting sick."

" 'eah 'ou're right." Harry said, his nose was clogged up so it sounded funny. Hermione giggled and they walked back in the building and back up to they're tower. Hermione insisted Harry take a shower first since he was worse than her but he refused and Hermione quickly took a shower and he took one after her.
