Chapter 5
Hermione woke up the next morning almost hoping that everything that happened last night was a dream, but deep down she knew it was real.
Hermione was dangerous. Never in her life would she think herself dangerous before now. She thought herself to fragile. Should she tell the head master? She thought, if I'm a threat to the school I probably should tell someone. But if she did McGonagall would no that it was her in the Library last night.
But would they kick her out? Hermione did not even want to think of that. If she could keep her emotions under control she should be fine…right?
Hermione got up out of bed and got dressed for the day.
As soon as she was done she went downstairs to find Harry and Ron waiting for her.
"Finally, were starving Hermione," Ron said grumpily.
"Good morning to you too Ron," Hermione said coldly. She stood shocked, she had never herd herself speak that coldly to anyone. Control your emotions, she told herself.
Harry and Ron shared the same shock Ron looking wide eyed, "Well let's go then," She said after a long pause.
They both nodded but kept quite not wanting to upset her again. They headed out the portrait hole into the crowded corridors as students made there way to the Great Hall.
Hermione had thought about telling Harry and Ron, but it would only make them worry. She also did not want her best friends thinking she was a freak.
Hermione they deserve to know, a voice inside her head whispered. How could I tell them without them getting angry or upset, it might make my own emotions go whack.
"Hermione," A female voice called, that would be the only female that liked to talk to Hermione.
Ginny ran up to her side, "How did you guys get out so fast,"
"Ginny you take forever to get ready," Ron replied as a matter of factly. Ginny was about to retort when she was interrupted.
"It pay's off though," Harry said smirking. Ginny beamed at Harry and forgot Ron's comment.
Hermione was glad to see Harry with Ginny, they were almost to perfect for each other. Ron and Lavender who had gotten together at the end of the school year were having struggles with there relationship right now which made Ron very grumpy and Hermione very irritated.
They entered the Great Hall and took there usual seats. Hermione felt a familiar stare and almost felt relief; she hadn't seen him in two days. She looked up from her plate, as her eyes meet with the cold stormy ones she loved. Why did she feel like her heart was pounding five times faster whenever he was in the same room? She asked herself, it was only Malfoy…right?
"Hermione aren't you going to eat something?" Ginny asked. Hermione's eye tore away from the gray ones to look at Ginny. She looked concerned.
Hermione nodded grabbing food to put on her plate, Ginny satisfied now, turned to talk to Harry.
Hermione felt someone slide beside her, she turned to see William.
"Hermione you look tired, up late last night?" He said smirking.
Hermione laughed, "You have no idea,"
It was right then she could sense his emotions. Malfoy was face was fuming in silence. Hermione had never felt hatred so strongly, and with her powers that came with sensing emotion, it was even worse.His eyes were not as light of gray as she usually saw them but a dark almost silver, but his eyes were not on her. He was looking at William. Hermione sat shocked, why on earth would he hate William so much and so suddenly?
Hermione could sense that Malfoy knew she was looking, and he almost seemed glad that she was.
"What is it?" William asked clueless.
Hermione snapped back into time, "Oh, sorry, it's nothing I was just thinking," She said still feeling Malfoy's rage.
William wasn't buying it. He looked in the direction of my eyes, and by his expression changing; she assumed he caught sight of Malfoy. William glared right back at him. Hermione had never seen William glare before, it was frightening.
"What's his problem?" He asked still glaring at Malfoy.
Hermione shrugged his shoulders; she did not know why Malfoy was acting like this.
William all the sudden started to smirk, not a teasing smirk but a evil smirk, as if he just found out something that somewhat amused him.
Hermione gave him a confusing look.
"I've got to go," He said still smirking, "I'll see you in Astronomy,"
Hermione nodded as he stood up and strode out of the Great Hall. Hermione noticed a lot of girls watching him leave with dreamy eyes.
Hermione looked at Malfoy again and felt him relax. So he doesn't like William, I'll ask him during Transfiguration Hermione decided.
"So Hermione how is dear young William?" Ginny asked teasingly.
"Yes how's dear William?" Ron's voiced copied Ginny's, she shot him a glare.
"No one asked you Ron," Ginny snapped, reminding Hermione of Mrs. Weasley, she turned back to Hermione.
"He has a good smirk it's hot" She whispered to Hermione. Hermione laughed and rolled her eyes, to afraid to admit that she thought the same as Ginny.
"What are you two whispering about," said Harry hurt.
"Don't worry about it, come on were going to be late for our classes," Hermione said.
Classes in the morning went by very slowly, since Astronomy and Transfiguration were her last classes of the day. Hermione was the least to say board. She distracted herself by taking notes on everything and paid very close attention to distract her mind from a boy that wouldn't get out of her head…actually two of them wouldn't leave her mind alone.
Finally Charms was over and Hermione had Astronomy next, an opportunity to talk to William.
They made there way to the Astronomy tower as they climbed up the steps.
"I don't ever remember there being so many steps," Ron panted heavily by walking up the stares.
Harry and Hermione laughed, "Shouldn't we be the ones panting?" Harry asked teasingly, "We have shorter legs than you do!"
Hermione and even Ron laughed at this as they reached the top and took there seat's in the class room.
"So are you doing alright Hermione?" Harry said as they sat waiting for the others to get settled.
"Ya I've been doing fine," Hermione lied, giving him a fake smile. Harry knew better than to know that it was sincere but he didn't want to push her.
"Just remember we're here for you," Ron said.
Hermione put her hand over her heart, "Thank you Ron," She said over dramatically. Harry snickered.
Ron smiled, "But it's true,"
"Attention class we need to get started so let's not waste time," The Professor said.
Hermione saw William and two of his friends enter the class as they sat across from them. He caught Hermione's stare and he gave her a wink.
Hermione blushed as she looked away, she could feel William laughing at her, his friends nudging William.
The Professor's lecture was boring and very long, Hermione got out her Astronomy book and scanned most of the entire book by the time the Professor was done.
"Now I want you all to make your own star chart of the basic star contents and there significant to the wizarding world, this will take the whole class time and maybe even more if you do it correctly, and do it carefully because these will be used in the future" She said dismissing them to do there work.
Hermione got to work quickly. She remembered every single one of them and drew them neatly and organized. She remembered all the significances that related them to the wizarding world and within five minutes she was done.
Hermione froze in her seat. Did I just get that done without even looking at my book or notes? She did. It was suppose to take the whole class hour…maybe I did it wrong, she thought.
She raised her hand for the Professor.
"Yes Miss Granger," She said.
"Um yes I- I don't think I did this right," Hermione said stuttering a bit.
"She's already done?" Ron whispered to Harry shocked.
The Professor took it from Hermione and analyzed it. Her face looked confused. I didn't do it right, Hermione thought.
"Is this your own work?" She asked Hermione. Hermione nodded, "And you just started this during the last ten minutes?" Hermione nodded again.
The Professor stood there gazing amazingly at Hermione. By now the whole class was staring at Hermione amazed.
"My dear this is a perfect star chart," She said, "Down to the last detail your relations of the wizarding world are very good as well, well done Miss Granger," She said smiling genuinely, "Good work I'll take this to grade," and with that walked away.
Hermione couldn't figure out how she did that star chart out so fast, when it finally hit her. They will become more powerful through out there whole life, they will learn twice as faster than they did before and they will be able to create there own spells with great ease. She remembered from the book. She was getting smarter she realized.
"How did you figure that out so fast Granger?" William asked, he looking very impressed.
Hermione smirked, "Hello? Smartest witch of our year"
William smiled and rolled his eyes.
"Oh yes how could I forget," He said.
Hermione laughed.
"Have you come for the fair maiden's help," Hermione asked teasingly.
William played along, "But alas I'm already done myself," He said holding his up for her to see.
Hermione gave him an awed look, "How did you…how did you finish already?"
William gave her a mysterious smile, "Granger your not the only one with brains around here,"
The bell interrupting there conversation as they gathered there things.
"On to Transfiguration," William said tiredly.
"You're going there too?" Hermione asked. William nodded.
"Well come on then slow poke," Hermione said smiling, inviting him to walk with them. William smiled and nodded. Hermione looked over at Ron as he groaned.
As they made there way down to Transfiguration, Hermione thoughts were going once more. How did William finish almost as quickly as I did, was I missing something? How did he always seem to know what to say to me, what to do?
They entered the class room and most of the Slytherins were already there…including Malfoy, Hermione's stomach did a summersault as she watched him. He turned to look who came in. Hermione could see his face lift a little when he saw her, but when William came in walking right behind him his eyes went dark silver.
Well this is going to be awkward, Hermione thought.
William caught sight of Malfoy and put his smirk on that she had seen earlier. She rolled her eyes, Boy's.
Luckily William sat with his other friends instead of Hermione (Malfoy's eyes probably would have burned him dead if he did) so this left Hermione in-between Harry and Ron.
"Right class let's clam down with the chatter," McGonagall said, " Now today will be a review of what we have learned I'm going to split you up in partners and you can review together,"
"Do we always have to have partners in this class," Harry groaned.
"When I call your name, go sit with your partner and get started, I don't want anyone wasting time…..Lavic with Patil, Clearwater you go with Malfoy,"
Hermione's hopes dropped, she was secretly hoping that she would be his partner again. Hermione was almost so in her disappointment she almost missed her name.
"Miss Granger will be with…Zabini," Hermione rolled her eyes. She honestly disliked Zabini from the moment she met him, he acted more self absorbed than any Slytherin.
They both got up and walked glumly to there desk, she slumped on the closest chair to her. Just don't talk to him Hermione, she told herself
As the Professor got done paring off students they set to work. She could feel both William and Malfoy staring at her, this made Hermione uncomfortable.
"So Granger how's your make over treating you?" Blaise asked, "Dying to get attention that you haven't had for so many years?" He asked snickering.
Hermione gave Blaise a cold glare, colder than the one she gave Ron.
"Well it obviously caught your attention Zabini" Hermione said.
"No Granger it just sickens me how you think you can get every guy,"
"And why would you care Zabini?" Hermione asked her temperature rising, control your emotions Hermione, She thought.
She looked away from him to calm herself. She could still feel William and Malfoy still watching. She couldn't look at Malfoy, but she looked at William briefly.
'Calm down' He mouthed to her, but Blaise caught her attention once more.
"Because you're going too far with Malfoy," Blaise said disgusted.
"I'm not going anywhere with Malfoy Zabini so I'm warning you back off!" Hermione said this literally, she already didn't like him in the first place; her temperature was going out of control. Stop listening to him Hermione! She screamed at herself. Blaise had defiantly hit a nerve about talking about Malfoy.
"I see the way you look at him Granger you obliviously," Blaise said leaning close to her ear, Hermione could not move away because she was shaking so bad. His voice was soft and bitter, "If you think he would sink so low as a self centered muddblood like you then you're wrong,"
That hit hard. Hermione's patience broke. Hermione don't!!
Hermione stood up, "TAKE THAT BACK ZABINI!" Hermione screamed at the top of her lungs. She didn't care that everyone was watching, she didn't even care if Professor McGonagall was watching.
"NO GRANGER," Blaise yelled also, standing up to, "BECAUSE YOU NEED TO LEARN THAT YOUR NO BETTER THAN THE SCUM OF THE EARTH!!"
Malfoy and William rushed to Hermione's side, but William got there first.
"Hermione," William grabbed Hermione's arm, but Hermione was out of control.
Hermione slapped William right across the face. William looked hurt and took a step back.
Hermione could feel her anger at herself for causing him pain.
"Stupid Muddblood even thinks she owns her own friends," Blaise said.
Hermione felt her eyes burn into a scorching glare. She wanted him to die right here and now! She reached for her wand at yelled,
"DIVIOBRIS" She screamed. A red string of light came out her wand it was shaped as a snake as it filled up the entire class room. It shot itself at Blaise. Everything was a blur after that. The room became pitch Dark except for the red light as Hermione herd McGonagall scream at Hermione to stop. The snake started squeezing the life out of Blaise and Hermione didn't think anything of it…she was smirking.
Hermione was surrounded by the red light to, she felt power she felt like she could do anything and be anyone.
But Hermione felt something coming up behind her; she snapped her head around not stopping the spell. She felt cold arm around her. It was Malfoy his cold gray eyes filled with water looking into her fiery ones.
"Hermione stop this…please…I love you" He said still holding her tight. She looked deeply into his eyes seeing if he really meant it. He stared right back as he still held her close. He did mean it.
Hermione's heart stopped as she realized what she was doing. He loved her. This made herself come back and take control again.
Hermione pushed him softly away as she took the spell to stop from attacking Zabini as he fell through the window with a loud smash of glass as he started falling through the window to the castle ground, but Hermione was prepared.
She ran towards the window before anyone one could stop her and jumped out. She kept her eyes on Zabini's falling figure. With her wand in her hand and tears in her eyes she whispered "Accio broom"
Her broom came to her as she was falling through the air. She grabbed hold of it and zoomed towards Blaise…she had caught him just in time. Her broom scuffed along the grass. She would have crashed if she had not pushed of the ground with her leg.
Blaise was unconscious as she flew him to the hospital wing, not stopping anywhere.
She found an open window in the hospital wing and landed putting Zabini on a bed.
"Madam Pomfery!" Hermione called, but she was already coming.
Her eyes grew wide, "My dear child what happened!"
Hermione said nothing but ran the other direction. Hermione was letting another emotion take control…Fear. I have to get out of here before they throw me in Azkaban.
She ran through the corridors as she rounded as corner as she smacked into someone- it was McGonagall.
"Hermione," McGonagall grabbed her as Hermione tried to runaway, her voice heaving with running "What's gotten into you,"
Hermione froze for a moment. McGonagall didn't sound angry at all, her eyes only filled with concern.
Hermione leaned into McGonagall and started crying.
How did you like that? Don't worry it will explain more in the next chapter!
