A/N: Ok everyone, I'm sorry. I know it's been like forever since I've updated this story, but I'm in my first year of Highschool and things are alot harder than I thought they would be. But I am trying to get back into the swing of working on this story.
This chapter is going to be a bit short, I'm writing it right off the top of my head, so I can't promise to much on this, but I do hope you enjoy it.
Chapter 4- Wake Me Up
Draco and Hermione's POV
Draco's POV: Dream Scene
I'm running through the Forbiden Forest from a monster. I don't know what or even who it is or what it wants. All I know is I'm running from it because I'm scared. I'm running for the entrance of the forest, but it seems like I'm not getting any closer to it. I'm trapped. I look behind me one last time to see how close this monster was, and then tripped over a tree root. Falling face first to the ground, I relize I'm dreaming and call out for someone, anyone to wake me up.
Hermione's POV: Waking Scene
I was sleeping peacefully when I felt whatever it was I was leaning against move. I opened my eyes and relized that it was Malfoy. I was a bit horrified, so I jumped up and was headed out the door when I heard him mumbling something. Not thinking anything of it, I opened the door to the compartment and started to walk out when he started yelling for someone to wake him up. It confused me at first as I just watched him lay there, screaming in his sleep, then he began to move. He seemed very distressed about something. Not wanting him to attracked any attention to the compartment and have people asking why we'd been alone in there together, I shut the door quickly and walked over to his sleeping form.
I reached my hand out to wake him when he stared swinging his fist around. I sat back out of the way to avoid getting hit. When he finally calmed a bit, I reached back out and shook his shoulder lightly.
"Malfoy. Malfoy wake up." I said softly. "Get up Malfoy, it's just a dream." I said a bit louder this time.
He sat straight up and looked around the compartment like he had no idea where he was. He looked right at me and asked,
"What's going on, where did it go? How'd I get here?"
"Malfoy, we've been in here the whole train ride, we're going to Hogwarts." I assured him, not knowing what else to say. I watched him in confusion as he slomped in his seat and rested his face in his hands.
Draco's POV: Still Dreaming and then Waking Scene
The monster flew down toward me, so I started to swing. I finally gave up to let it have me when I felt something touch my shoulder. I turned my head to the side and saw a really bright light and a hand reaching out for me. That's when I heard a soft voice calling out to me.
"Malfoy. Malfoy wake up." It was so soft I barely heard the words it spoke. "Get up Malfoy, it's just a dream." I heard the voice say a bit louder now.
I finally woke up, but I couldn't remember where I was. I looked around, trying to take in the new surroundings and trying remember the place. I looked over and saw Hermione in front of me and asked,
"What's going on, where did I go? How'd I get here?" It was official, I was clueless now.
"Malfoy, we've been in here the whole train ride," that's when it all started to come back to me. I didn't hear the rest of what she said as the memories flooded my mind. The crying and the talking and the quite moment when she fell asleep next to me and I dozed off. "It was just a dream." I thought to myself as I slomped down in my seat and rested my face in my hands. The scenes from the summer rushing through my mind.
She spoke again. "Malfoy, are you ok? You don't look so well." she said in a worried like tone.
"Of course I'm fine." I snapped at her. "You don't look so well yourself." I said without looking at her. It got quiet, then I heard sobbing. I relized what I'd said and automaticaly felt bad. She was just trying to be kind and I snapped at her for no reason at all, she hadn't done anything to me.
"Hermione..." I started to say as I reached out for her. She stood up and ran out of the compartment crying again. "What have I done now?" I asked myself as I stood up and walked to the door and watched her form disappear into another room. I didn't want to chase after her, she probably wouldn't want me to anyway. She probably just wanted to be left alone. I went back into the compartment, shut the door and sat on the edge of the seat and hung my head low. Then there was a knock on the door.
Knock Knock Knock...
A/N 2: I know, it's really short, but I ran out of ideas. I know it's not the best chapter ever, but I promise for better chapters from now on.
So, who do you think is at the door, and why are they there? Who do you think it should be?
R&R, thanks guys.
