Chapter 16 - Ordinary Day

Hermione hurried over to the window and let the owl in. She untied the letter.

Hermione

Gryffindor Common Room, Hogwarts

Dear Hermione,

I am glad to hear you are well. I had an eventful summer. I was traveling with the Quidditch team. We came in second, we were beaten by Moose Jaw Meteorites. It was too bad we didn't play in Britain or I could have seen you. It has been a long time since I last saw you, it would be nice to see you again. Maybe this summer we could get together. At the moment I am not very busy as Quidditch season just ended. But I am still practicing hard for next time. I value our friendship very much and I am glad you are keeping in touch. Not many people write to me as I am always traveling. I hope you are enjoying your time at Hogwarts. Please write back soon.

Take care,

Viktor

Hermione replied to his letter quickly. Then departed for bed. When she got up to the dormitories she found Ginny waiting for her.

"Hi Ginny, what's up?"

"You wanted to talk to me remember."

"Wha - oh yeah. I bumped into Malfoy at the library."

"And …"

"Well we talked and"

"You had a civilized conversation with Malfoy? It must be a full moon!" Said Ginny walking over to the window and looking out.

"Ha ha, anyway we started talking because he made a comment about my shorts. Then I was about to leave and he pulled me back. Then we started talking again, I was about to leave again and then he pulled me back and …"

"And what? What happened?"

"He uh… he kissed me."

"Oh really, what did you do, did you kiss him back? Is he a good kisser, I hear he's amazing."

"Uh… well I pulled away as soon as I realized what he did."

"Oh no mione you didn't!"

"I was in shock. Draco Malfoy kissed me. Do you know what Harry and Ron would do if they found out?"

"Yeah, they'd kill him."

"Exactly, I think I really like him."

"Obviously you do remember the ball of truth?"

"I know, Oh how am I going to tell Harry and Ron?"

"Don't tell them, it was just one kiss. You don't know what's going to happen. He may forget about it by next week. You won't even be a dent in his memory of girls he kissed. Well he might remember you as the only one who pulled away," joked Ginny.

"Oh don't remind me."

"Come on we should get to bed, it's late."

"Yeah, good night."

Hermione changed and got into bed.

Ginny's right. I shouldn't worry it was just a kiss. Everything will be back to normal tomorrow.

With that thought she fell into a peaceful sleep.

The next morning she slept in a bit. Then got dressed and went to see if Harry and Ron were up. They weren't in the common room so she walked up to their common room very quietly. She walked over to Harry's bed.

"Harry, wake up. Harry …" She walked over to the window and pulled over the curtains.

"Ah close the curtains," moaned Harry.

"Harry wake up."

"Hi Hermione," said Dean who had just gotten out of bed, "HERMIONE! What are you doing here?"

The boys laughed as Dean put on his dressing gown to cover himself as he was only wearing boxers.

"I came to get Harry and Ron, sorry for waking you guys."

"You should be sorry," mumbled Ron.

"I'm sorry for waking those three not you and Harry."

"So why do you want us."

"I wanted to do something today. We don't have homework and you don't have quidditch practice."

"Okay we'll get ready and meet you in the common room."

Hermione left their room and sat down in the common room where she continued to read her book. In ten minutes the boys we're down. They spent the day enjoying themselves in the grounds. It was their last enjoyable day as lessons became more demanding now that they were doing NEWT classes. So weekends became busy; full of revising and studying.

:-D :-D :-D :-D
