Draco was fuming at the mouth. After all he had done to prove that he cared about them, they were still so secretive. Bloody gits.

He decided to take a walk. He needed to clear his mind. He continued walking until he arrived at a small lake. It was there that he sat down to think.

Argh! That did not happen the way it was supposed to! He had not meant for Draco to take it the wrong way. Things were just so bloody difficult. He decided to go after Drake, but what about Hermione? Oh sod it! Hermione was sleeping anyway. He opened the door and went after his best friend.

As he left the cottage, Blaise felt the protective spells of the area leave his reach. Well, no choice there. It was either this or lose Drake to pure pigheadedness. Why did he have to be so stubborn? He knew that it wasn't entirely Draco's fault, that he was just a bit touche that there was so much that he didn't know, but still wasn't he overreacting just a tad?

Draco lay on his back, watching what he could see of the stars. He knew he had overreacted just a little bit, but he would go back. He just needed to sort out his thoughts first.

The waves lapped peacefully around him. He watched as the moon shone on the blue surface of the water. Without thinking, he pulled off his shirt and his pants and jumped into the water in his boxers. The water felt cold against his skin.

As he dove underwater, Draco felt the water surface break. Draco emerged only to be splashed in the face by Blaise.

"Oy, you silly sod! Why'd you run out on me man!"

Draco didn't reply, rather he just splashed back. They had a splashing fight until finally they were both shivering like crazy.

"I think it's time we head back...BRRR...Mione's all alone."

"Damn! I totally forgot." Draco replied instantly. They got out of the water and both immediately began shivering even more. They shakily pulled on their clothes and headed back to the cottage.

"Um, do you know where we're going Blaise?"

"Of course I do!"

"Then why is the lake on our left? Didn't we just go to the right? I think we're going in circles."

"Are you doubting my sense of direction Drake?" Blaise asked mock-seriously.

"I think I am." Draco answered, equally serious.

"Well then I'd love to see you leadMr.Draco-I-can-do anything-Malfory."

"It's Malfoy. Watch it."

"My my, someone's got a stick up their ass haven't they?"Blaiseteased.

"We'll just see about that."

The two boys got into a playful wrestling match just as Hermione awoke at the cottage.

Hermione felt the emptiness and sudden stillness of the house as she woke up in bed.She felt drained of all her energy, but she was worried so she called out to the boys.

"Draco? Blaise? Are you guys there?"

There was no answer.As she tried again, she began to grow worried.Chills ran up and down her spine. Where were the two boys?With all the effort she could muster, Hermione pulled herself out of bed and opened the door. The living room was empty. She searched the cottage; it was empty. She opened the door and looked around outside; she noticed that there were footsteps. They stopped abruptly though, the trail wasn't fully there.Hermione didn't know what else to do, there was only one thing she could do.
