Chapter 5

No, no, no, no! Bloody hell he was going to die! The cabinet wasn't ready to transport people yet. This wasn't happening. He was going to die and the only person who would be there was the stupid mudblood! He was going to die...and no one would be there to care.

No, no, no, no! Merlin she was going to die wasn't she, either Malfoy would kill her or the rest of thee death eaters at Burgin and Bourke's would. Well she assumed that's where they were going. Yep she was going to get killed by her curiosity. Curiosity did kill the bloody cat after all.

They stopped falling and came crashing into the cupboard again. With the weight of what had just hit it the cabinet it collapsed on top of Hermione and Malfoy. Hermione let out a yelp. She went to dodge one of the walls that was about to fall on top of her, she knew she was to late. Death by cabinet wall, no not the war, not the death eaters that would be trying to kill her on a regular, but a plank of wood.

Damn, wall about to fall on him...and Granger. But like him! He went to turn away to get out of the way when Granger let out a yelp. He Turned back over and grabbed Granger's waist and pulled them both out of the way of the falling wall. They got out the way just in time to see the cabinet fall completely apart with a huge, CRASH!

'What did you just do you stupid sod? You just saved the bloody mudblood, Golden Girl!' Draco thought.

"Wh-what did you just do?" Granger voiced his thoughts.

"Shut it Mudblood." Malfoy snarled.

"B-but you just...you…" Hermione trailed off. What did just happen?!

"I said SHUT IT!" Malfoy practically growled. Hermione felt herself flinch and knew he saw it too.

"Well, how are we going to get back? And how are we even here in the first place? Why are you always going to try and put effing apples in a vanishing cabinet?" Hermione was ranting and she knew it.

"Let me get this straight Mudblood, there's no 'us'" Malfoy put air quotes around the word 'us'. "It's just a horrible coincidence that we happened to get stuck here together ok? So there's no 'us'. I hope you starve out here, but knowing you and you know-it-all brain you'll find a way out of this mess." What did he just say? She was a mudblood and that was the closest thing to a compliment that he had said all year!

Hermione looked stunned, but Draco didn't wait around to notice her hurt expression. She irritably decided to follow him.

"Why are you following me?" He snapped.

"Don't flatter yourself Malfoy. I just have more than half a brain cell and know that it's smarter to stick together when in the middle of nowhere." Hermione explained as if he was a frustrating five year old, which of course he was pretty close to.

"What's that?" He frowned pointing to the horizon. Hermione frowned and followed his finger.

"It looks like a...house?" Hermione's frown deepened.

"I got that Granger!" Malfoy snapped.

"Well come on let's go see if anyone lives there." Hermione's pace quickened.

"What?" Draco raised his eyebrow at the crazy, mad, absolutely insane girl.

"We need to figure how to get back and I don't know about you,but I don't fancy sleeping outside on the floor in the cold." Hermione said.

"Malfoys don't sleep on the ground or outside, that's where dirt like you lives." Malfoy's posture somehow straightened even more. Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Well I'm going." Hermione huffed and stomped off.

Draco rolled his eyes and followed her, mumbling things like, "Stupid Mudblood." under his breath.
