Author's Note: The First Chapter's short and it ended quickly, hopefully you like it. Here's the Second Chapter "Time Machine". Again, My Apologies for Misspelled Words and Wrong Grammar. Please R and R.
B. T. W. Professor Albus Dumbledore is not dead and is still the Headmaster of Hogwarts. Professor Severus Snape and Fred Weasley are alive, too.
One mistake, got a one regret
"No one's perfect"
Even if I tried saying that,
Whatever I do, the wounds can't heal
I'm going to embark on a time machine
If I would be able to go meet you again
I wouldn't ask for more
Before it becomes a distant fleeting memory
I need a time machine oh~
~Time Machine by Girls' Generation (So Nyuh Shi Dae)
It was a fine Saturday afternoon. That means there are no classes and they're free to go to Hogsmeade.
Harry, Ron, Ginny, Lavender and the other Gryffindors went to play Quidditch. Taking no interest in Quidditch, Hermione decided to not to go and stayed in the common room.
She stayed in there for several hours accompanied by thousands of books. She looked at the clock and it says that it's already time for lunch.
Why aren't they here yet? She thought. Must have gone to Hogsmeade. Oh, well.
She closed the book that she was reading and stood up. She went outthe portrait door and was startled when the Fat Lady suddenly spoke to her.
"I thought you're with your friends playing Quidditch!"
"Er…no. I'm not a big fan of Quidditch."
"Oh I see. Where are you going then?"
"The Great Hall, it's lunchtime."
"Okay, happy eating!" The Fat Lady said cheerfully. Hermione smiled at her and walked away.
When she reached the Great Hall, she saw that the only occupants at the Gryffindor table were the first years and second years. She was about to walk towards the table when..
"HERMIONE!" someone shouted her name. She turned around and saw Blaise Zabini walking towards her together with Pansy Parkinson, Daphne Greengrass and Theodore Nott. She could feel everyone's eyes on her and it annoys her a bit.
"Come sit with us." The Gryffindors, Ravenclaws, Hufflepuffs started whispering to each other but the Slytherins remained silent. She looked at Draco and he smiled and nodded at her. Blaise put his arm on shoulders and started to walk them over the table. On their way, the Slytherins smiled at her, some even waved at her. They didn'tinsult her, too. Which absolutely surprised her.
Once they took their seats, Hermione in between Pansy and Daphne, across from them are Draco, Blaise, and Theo, they gave her some food and started to eat but Hermione only starred at her food. Theo noticed her and asked "Why aren't you eating?"
"I'm just confused."
"Why?" Blaise asked.
"First, you called me Hermione, not Ms. Know-it-All, not Granger, not mud- "
"Don't say it!" Pansy and Daphne exclaimed. Again, she was surprised but she let it slip and continued.
"Then, asked me to sit with you, when we were walking towards here, the others smiled and waved at me. They didn't insult me, either."
"You think we're still the same arrogant, selfish Slytherins, don't you?" Hermione looked around and saw that every Slytherin's looking at her. She bowed her head and her cheeks turned into a shade of pink.
"It's alright, we're not mad at you."
"You know if anyone's going to bow their heads, it's us not you." She looked up and saw that they have serious expression on their faces.
"We really want to apologize to everyone. We want to explain things to everyone. We want to tell everybody that we only did those things because our parents wanted us to impress the Dark Lord. We don't really care about what kind of blood you have yet nobody wants to listen to any of us."
"I wish we have a Time Machine." Draco said and the others nodded in agreement.
"Why?" Hermione asked
"To change all our wrong deeds and to say sorry."
"A simple sorry couldn't change everything, but still, you don't need any Time Machines. You just have to prove that they're wrong. You just need to show them that you've changed. It's hard I know, but don't stop until you earned their trust. Don't stopeven if you earned their trust already. Be patient, don't start any fights. Otherwise they'll think it's just a trick or something." The Slytherins nodded.
"You know what, Hermione?" Theo asked.
"What?"
"You never fail to amuse me." The others nodded in agreement and she smirked at them.
"Hey! That's my part." Draco piped up
"Well, it looks like I've stolen it." And she stuck her tongue at him.
"Mature. Very mature." They all laughed and ate lunch happily.
