Entry for Word Prompt Express.
Prompt: (13) Agree.
Hermione smiled happily to herself as she walked into the library and sat down next to Anthony Goldstein. Sometimes she wished that she'd been placed in Ravenclaw instead of Gryffindor, as it would've been nice to be in a house with people who love learning as much as she does. Hermione felt guilty for her thoughts when she pictured Harry and Ron though.
She and Anthony were very alike in many ways, and Hermione felt an unfamiliar calming sensation settle over her body when he was around. He was also very intelligent and had a thirst for knowledge that rivalled her own. Anthony grinned at her as she opened her book.
"Are you ready to start?"
"I've been looking forward to it all day," she told him eagerly.
"You know, it's nice to find someone who gets as excited about homework as I do, Hermione."
"I couldn't agree more, Anthony. Now, less talking and more studying."
They smiled and got to work.
