Hermione closed her eyes to take a cleansing breath. How was she expected to concentrate on Herbology with images of battle still fresh in her mind?
"Praying for a miracle?" taunted Draco's slimy voice.
Her eyes flew open. "Stay away from my plants," she hissed.
"Why? The foliage goes well with my colouring."
"Because your family murders everything it touches! I hope your father rots in Azkaban."
Draco's smirk faded. "What rubbish are you spouting now, Granger?"
Suddenly, Madam Sprout appeared. "Mr. Malfoy, your presence is requested." She led him away.
Hermione felt triumphant. Astonishment didn't look good on him.
