Evie and Mason couldn't believe Hermione's behavior. So when they were far enough into the school Evie stopped Hermione "Yo what was that
about?" Hermione turned to leave "Nothing" "Ya we believe that!" Mason scoffed. "Come on this isn't you Jade." Hermione looked at her friends
"Look you guys already know all about me. You know my secrets but people around here have never seen that side of me. For so long I have
hidden who I am around these people because Paul would have killed me if I acted out here. It is just weird switching modes." "Okay it is cool but
we can see how bad it hurts you to hide yourself." "Well thank you for caring." "Paul can't hurt you anymore!" "I know" Hermione said
halfheartedly "Come on where is the Jade that gets up on tables and dances and the Jade that will slug a guy if he pinches her ass?" Hermione
laughed "She's in here somewhere." "Well we like her not the girl that doesn't stick up for her self just because she might get in trouble." "Okay
Okay!! I get it!" "Good well we are down the hall and I wouldn't want you to get caught by some Slytherins so night babe" "Night Evie" "Night
Jade" "Night Mason" Hermione walked to her common room and sat on the couch and stared into the fire. An hour later she was still sitting there
when Draco entered followed by a giggling sixth year slytherin. He didn't notice and he pulled the girl into his room. Hermione came out of her
reverie when Draco's door shut. Hermione walked to her room and locked the door. She then turned on her stereo and opened a window. She
then pulled a pack of cigarettes and lit one and sat on the windowsill. After smoking two cigarettes she shut the window and laid down on her bed
and fell asleep. Four hours later Hermione woke with a start and was covered in a thin layer of sweat. She got up and sat at her desk. There she
finished her homework, studied and when she got bored with all that she opened her magically charmed laptop and watched underground videos of
street racing, street fighting, and she also downloaded music. Hermione watched a few videos of her and thought about her summer.
Hermione had had a hard life. Paul Granger was not her real father, he was her foster father. He was a wizard who's whole mission in life was to
make Hermione's life a living hell and he had successful many times is creating havoc and misery for Hermione.
Around 3am Hermione stood stretched her arms over her head. She then put on some sweat pants, a hoody and tennis shoes. Hermione pulled up her
hood and then quietly snuck out of the school. She walked down to the lake and began to run around it. She ran along the water by the forest. She
ran around twice as fast as she could. She then looked at her watch and it read 5:15am. So she decided she should head back up to the castle.
When she walked in through the portrait she was surprised to find Draco sitting at the kitchen counter. He turned hearing someone enter he was
shocked when he saw a muddy Hermione. She didn't acknowledge his presence instead she walked into the kitchen and poured herself some
water. She then proceeded to chug the large amount of water. When Draco was done reading the prophet he threw it on the counter then walked
into the kitchen for more coffee. "Move Granger" he said roughly. Hermione didn't answer him instead she let him pass and walked upstairs and into
her bathroom. There she stripped herself of the muddy clothes and stood in front of a full length mirror. Hermione then removed the concealment
charm that she had placed on herself. It not only covered the mark from Seamus it also disguised many scars and bruises that Hermione had. (I can't
go into detail right now! But I will) Hermione then entered the shower and let the warm water wash over her body. She got out 15minutes later and
covered her body with a fluffy purple towel. When she entered her room she dried off and then threw the towel on the floor. She walked over to her
stereo and turned on AFI's MISS MURDER Hermione then danced around the room as she picked out her outfit. This turned out to be a plain
purple t-shirt and black jeans with a pair of pumas. She decided to go see Madame Pomfrey before her first class. When she arrived in the hospital
wing it was empty so Hermione walked to Madame Pomfrey's office and found her sitting at her desk. Hermione knocked lightly on the door frame.
"My dear, are you well?" "Ohh… I'm fine but yesterday Mr. Finnegan busted my lip and I was wondering if you could heal it for me." Madame
Pomfrey motioned for her to sit and then she lifted the concealment charm Hermione had placed on it. But when she removed the charm on her face
it also lifted the charm on her body as well so Madame Pomfrey could see Hermione's scars and bruises. She gasped in horror. "Good Lord Child"
Hermione freaked and grabbed her bag and ran out of the office. Madame Pomfrey hurried after her and stopped Hermione before she left the
infirmary. "Oh please wait, I shouldn't have reacted that way. I've just never seen a student so hurt before but that doesn't matter at the moment."
She then waved her wand over Hermione's face and her lip returned to normal. Hermione looked up the healer. "Thank you but I should head to
class I only have 30minutes." Hermione could make it in five but she just wanted an excuse to leave. "Miss Granger I could reduce many of those
scars and get rid of those bruises for you." "How?" "I know many potions and spells that would work." "Really?" "Yes" "I don't know" "Why not
after dinner you come here and we can see if it helps. If it doesn't then you don't have to come back?" "Okay but I have to patrol right after dinner.
Can we do it around ten?" "Of course. I'll be waiting" "Please don't tell anyone!" "I won't" Hermione left for her first class with some hope of not
having a daily reminder of her horrid past.
