Chapter 2


Argus Filch sat in his office adding to Fred and George Weasley's files for they had pulled yet another prank, Quite honestly he didn't know who was worse them or Peeves. He had just finished when he heard a knock on the door NOW WHAT! Filch thought as he got up to answer the door. Hermionie had been standing there waiting when the door suddenly revealing Mr. Filch behind it. "WHAT" he barked he looked and saw Hermione standing there looking timid and a bit frightened. "WHAT DO YOU WANT" he baked yet again when she said nothing. "I was just wondering sir, if you would like some help with anything, I would like to help you if you'll let me sir" she said all this with a shaky voice.

To say that Filch was shocked was an understatement no student ever offered to help him kind to think of it NO ONE offered to help him unless you count Mrs. Norris. Their has to be a catch he thought after all helping him was considered a punishment. Filch was not convinced why would you want to help me? he asked Hermione looked him in the eye and said "i heard your secret from Harry and Ron." At hearing this Filch was outraged but before he could say anything Hermione cut him off. "I know your a squib Mr. Filch" Hermione Stated. Hermione took a deep breath and continued "I just wanted you to know sir that it dosen't matter, you belong here just as much as the rest of us. I'm not offering to help you out of pity I'm doing it because you deserve it"

Once again Filch was stunned not only was Hermione Granger offering to help him, she was also trying to make him feel better. Filch couldn't remember when, if ever anyone let alone a student thought about his feelings or took them into consideration. "Please sir I genuinely just want to help you, no tricks or pranks I swear. Filch still not convinced and thought she was bluffing decided to play along if it turned out she was he could give her detention. "Very well Miss Granger if you truly wish to help me meet me in my office tomorrow night, after dinner in the great hall, you can help me sort out Fred and George Weasley's files" Filch said on a mocking, disbelieving tone. Hermione noticed this but decided to ignore it "alright sir I'll be here at 7:00 after dinner I promise" Filch nodded and went to close the door but before he could fully close it Hermione spoke up "sir," Filch paused closing the door "thank you for everything you do to keep this castle running." Hermione walked away leaving Filch standing in the doorway.
