Hermione's POV
It's been a couple of weeks of middle school, I couldn't hate this school more. None of the girls are nice to me besides Lela and Andi. They all call me an annoying know-it-all, tease me, and push me around. Even Peeves was nicer. As I washed my hands in the bathroom, I looked up in the mirror to see Victoria, Phoebe, and Chelsea behind me.
"Oh look it's Hermione," Victoria sneered.
I ignored her and tried to leave the bathroom but Phoebe held her hand out and stopped me.
"Not so fast, Granger," she said.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"Nothing," Chelsea said, taking a step towards me.
"Your hair is so frizzy," Victoria said taking a strand.
I panicked, and I didn't know what to do. Victoria saw the panic in my eyes because right then and there she yanked out the strand. I yelped in pain.
"Oh poor Hermione, she's so weak she can't even handle her hair being yanked out. What a wuss," Victoria laughed.
Phoebe and Chelsea laughed along with her.
"I bet you were just a big mistake," Phoebe said.
"Your parents probably hate you," continued Chelsea.
My face turned red with anger and I tried to leave but Victoria pushed me to the wall.
"Don't take another step, Granger," she kept her hand on my shoulder.
I shuddered thinking of how much of Math I was missing.
"You're just a worthless know-it-all."
"She can't even speak for herself. She needs her friend to save her out of situations like this."
"She has no reason to be in this world."
"Let's make it even more miserable."
Without a warning, Victoria clenched up her fist and punch me square in the nose. Before I got a chance to process what happened to me they kicked the back of my knee, causing me to fall forward onto my knees. They beat me up, kicking, slapping, and punching. I didn't know how to make it stop.
"Hermione!"
All of them stopped abruptly and turned around to see Lela with a worried expression on her face. Lela immediately ran out. I assume she was getting a teacher. She could've been ditching me. I was too beat up to stand. Victoria, Phoebe, and Chelsea exchanged nervous glances and left the bathroom. A minute later Lela came back in with Mrs. Reddick. She shrieked at the sight of me.
"We need to get you to the nurse," She said in horror, "Lela please take her to the nurse's office. I will tell a Dean to come and ask you what happened."
Lela and Mrs. Reddick helped me up, I winced in pain. Lela wrapped her arm around mine very tightly.
"I've got you, it's okay to put all your weight on me," she said, leading me to the nurse's office.
It took a long time to get there. We walked down the 6th grade hallway, then made a right going down another hallway. At the end of that hallway we made a left and finally got to the nurse's office. When we walked in, the nurse was on the phone so we waited until she got off. I leaned into Lela more feeling a bit dizzy.
The nurse got off the phone, "Sorry to keep you two waiting, what seems to be the pr-"she cut herself off when she looked up from her desk and saw me.
"Oh no, not again," she said to herself. The nurse stood up from behind her desk and walked towards me, "Let's get you in a chair."
She and Lela walked me to a chair.
"What happened?" she asked.
Harry's POV
Hermione had been gone for a half an hour, Lela had been gone for ten minutes, and Mrs. Reddick finally came back to class after the ten minutes she was gone. Ron and I exchanged nervous glances when Lela showed up only five minutes before the bell rang.
At lunch, Hermione wasn't there.
"Where do you think Hermione is?" Ron asked me.
I shrugged, "Maybe she got sick."
He nodded at that answer, but I could tell he wasn't satisfied. Lela came to sit down, followed by Andi and someone else I've never seen. The girl had brown hair to her shoulders with a little bit of pep in her step. They sat down next to us.
"Guys, this is Natalie," Lela introduced.
Natalie waved, "Hello."
Ron and I smiled at her.
"Well don't be shy! Introduce yourselves!" Lela said.
Ron's faced turned red, "I'm Ron."
"I'm Harry," I said.
She smiled back at us and began ranting to Andi about a teacher she hates.
"Lela, do you know where Hermione is?" Ron asked.
She nodded and began explaining, "Well, Mrs. Reddick sent me to the bathroom to see if Hermione was alright and then send her back to class. When I walked into the bathroom Victoria, Chelsea and, Phoebe huddled in the corner beating something up. I heard a yelp and realized Hermione was their target, so I ran as fast as I could to get Mrs. Reddick. I walked into the bathroom with Mrs. Reddick and all three of them had left. I went to the nurse with Hermione and Mrs. Reddick had gone to the Dean's office. The nurse sent Hermione home because she had a broken nose and a bunch of bruises and scratches!"
I fell my face drop, Hermione didn't deserve to be treated like that.
"I know. It's horrible. I can't even imagine a person who would do that, honestly it makes me sick to my stomach," Lela said.
"What makes you sick to your stomach?" Natalie asked.
Lela smirked looking at Ron, "Harry's face."
Everyone began laughing.
"That wasn't very nice!" I said, pretending to be hurt.
Lela laughed until her face turned red, "I'm kidding."
"You better be!" I said.
The day seemed to go by a lot slower without Hermione here. Eventually the school day ended and I walked out with Ron.
"Fred and George want us to walk home with them. Want to?" Ron asked
I nodded, anything is better than getting to the Dursley's quicker than I have to.
"Hey, are you guys walking home?"
I turned around and saw Lela standing there.
"Yes we are," said Ron.
"Mind if I join?" Lela asked.
"Not at all, but I have to warn you my brothers are the most annoying things to walk on this planet."
Lela giggled, "I don't mind. I have the most annoying sister in the entire world."
We walked out and met up with Fred, George, and Ginny.
"Oh look Fred, our little Ronny has a girlfriend!" teased George.
Lela laughed and Ron's face turned entirely red.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Ron mumbled.
"Oh so she's a girl who is just a friend?" Fred asked.
"Yes," Ron said curtly.
"So I heard your Mudblood of a friend got herself beat up today?"
All of us turned around to see Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle standing there.
"She has a name, Draco," defended Ginny.
Draco laughed, "Does it look like I care, Weasly?"
"How do you know about Hermione, anyways?" Ginny questioned, ignoring his last comment.
"My girlfriend, Phoebe told me," answered Goyle.
Lela, who was taking a drink from her water bottle, nearly died choking, "You have a girlfriend?"
Goyle nodded. Lela turned away so they wouldn't see her laughing.
"Why do you even care, Malfoy?" Ron asked.
"I just wanted to make sure you know it wasn't just them who beat Granger up, I made sure they did all those horrible things to her," Malfoy said coolly.
Ron turned angry, and I stepped in front of him just in case he thought of punching Malfoy. I wanted to punch him too, but it wasn't worth it.
"You better leave Draco, we can go to the Dean's and tell them everything you just told us," Lela said, just as angry as Ron.
"We aren't afraid of them, Hughes," Draco had stepped forward so he was eye to eye with Lela.
"How the hell do you know my last name? Are you just a stalker?"
"I know everyone's last name," he said.
Lela took a step back, "Just leave Malfoy. You don't belong here."
"Prepare yourselves. This won't be last of me," Draco said leaving with Crabbe and Goyle.
"Well you have some guts to be talking to Draco like that," said Fred to Lela.
"He deserves it," she shrugged.
