Hey People! Chapter 10! I'm happy! Keep reading!
Hermoine groaned and rolled over, but the hammering continued. He'd been at her door for half an hour now, it was Saturday, what could he possibley want at 8:00 in the morning?
She groaned as Draco rapped on her door again.
"Cummon Hermione!" he yelled. "Its the Quiddich match today! Get out of bed!" looking out the window, Hermione sighed. Might as well get up and curse him to his face. Opening the door, Hermione scowled.
"Do you have any idea what day it is?" she hissed.
"Uh... Quiddich Match Day?"
"ITS SATURDAY!" she said angrily. "I'm supposed to be sleeping in!"
"Sorry!" Draco said perkily. "But todays the day that we beat Gryffindor!" Hermione gave him a hardened glare.
"You wish!"

"CUMMON HARRY!" Hermione screamed as she watched the match. The excitement was building and the score was tied.
"And the score is tied!" Seamus beemed over the microphone. "Will the brave Gryffindor Seeker win the game, or will the enemy provail? This is too exciting, even though there is no way that malfoy is going to wi-ouch!" everyone laughed as Professor McGonagle hit him over the head.

Marcus was watching, waiting for a moment, any moment, to get at Draco for hurting Hermione.
He'll pay! I'll make him pay!
Waiting for the opertune moment doesn't take much, and the disaster that happened next wasn't all it was cracked up to be.
"There!" he said to himself. Harry was perched next to Draco, both searching for the Snitch. Racing foreward, Marcus belted a bludger at Draco. It raced towards the two Seekers, but unfortunately, they both noticed. Moving a bit, they both managed to avoid the Bludger. Marcus swore to himself and turned around. Who cares where it went now, he'd missed.
"Oh GOD!" the whole stadium gasped as a figure fell from the Gryffindor stand. Marcus turned and sat there shocked when he saw Hermione plunging to the ground.
Then he saw someone soaring towards her, and he wasn't wearing red.
---
Draco hurtled towards Hermiones falling figure. Dipping beneath her, he caught the falling damsel in his arms. She was gasping for air, tears streaming out her eyes.
"Are you okay?" he asked as she clung to him.
"I hate Quiddich!" she said softly. Draco smiled and flew back up to the stand.
"Take better care of her Weasley, I'll talk to Flint," Ron nodded and Draoc flew off to finish the game.
---
"Just what were you thinking?" Draco fumed, pacing infront of Marcus. "You caould have killed her! What would people think if that had happened?" Marcus scowled, not looking at Draco.
"Is that all you care about? What people think?" Draco walked over and scruffed Marcus by the neck.
"Ever do anything so stupid again, and I will personally make you unable to reproduce!" with that, Draco stormed out.
He was storming down the hall, fuming and obviously not to be messed with. Good thing no-one was around. Draco stopped when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned to face Hermione.
"You okay now?" he asked her, seeing her shake.
"I'm fine, what did you say to Ma-uh, Flint?" she asked, correcting herslef. "You weren't to harsh were you? It really wasn't his fau--"
"OF COURSE IT WAS HIS FAULT!" Draco yelled, causing Hermione to flinch. "IF HE HADN'T HIT THE BLUDGER AT POTTER THEN NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE--"
"He wasn't aiming at me," a voice said from behind Draco. Turning he saw Harry standing there, hands in his pockets, his head bowed.
"What?" Hermione said, walking to him.
"It wasn't me that Flint wanted to hit, it was you," Harry looked up, sadness flooding his face. "I'm sorry Malfoy, Hermione, but Flint came to me before the game, he asked me to knock you off your broom. He lost it when I said no," Harry walked to Draco and looked him in the eye.
"Be carefull Malfoy, I wouldn't trust him," Draco nodded.
"Thanks Potter, your an alright guy after all," Harry smiled.
"Yeah, I guess you are too, in a ferret-ish kinda way,"
