Chapter 22 - Out Of Hours

Alice POV

After Ginny's outburst in the common room she was very calm.

It seemed like we had all returned to normal.

We were getting on with life.

Sometimes we would talk about Luna. About the good memories.

Occasionally tears were shed but they were only small tears.

Our days returned to normal.

Get up.

Have breakfast.

Go to lessons.

Have lunch.

More lessons.

Dinner.

Put off home work.

Get pestered by Hermione to do homework.

Put it off some more.

Do homework.

Hang out in the common room.

Go to bed.

On and on it went in a continues cycle.

Weekends were similar but instead of having lessons if the weather was nice we would go out on to the grounds and visit Hadrid.

On the other hand though is the weather was bad and chilly we were stuck in the castle.

On these days trouble was always around the corner with Draco and Sarah but it never came.

We had a few square ups with them but no spells were cast and nothing came of them.

They were acting suspicious though.

Always creaping around the corridors. Even after hours.

I sometimes went a walk after hours under my invisibility clock. It helped me to sleep.

I followed them one night. They came out of a room I had never seen before and went down to the dungeons.

I followed closely behind trying to listen to them.

Sarah knocked on Snapes classroom door.

"Open up already! Or I'll curse you in to next week!" She hissed.

"Ever like your mother Miss Lestrange." Snape muttered pulling the door open, "Mr Malfoy did you see anyone on the way down?"

"No, not even the stupid cat of Flinch's." Draco replied.

"Good, good." Snape sighed, "We didn't want anyone foiling our plans. The Dark Lord needs us."

He pushed Sarah and Draco in to his room and shut the door.

I heard it lock.

I ran up to the common room. It was three in the morning.

I woke Hermoione and shouted on Ginny and Ron to come down to the common room.

They came in their night clothes and looked at me like  I was a loony for waking them.

"Sssooo?" Hermione yawned.

Ron was giving me daggers for waking him up.

"Well hurry up Alice! I need my beauty sleep!" Ginny stated.

I rolled my eyes and explained what I had heard.

Hermiones eyes widened.

"Are you going to tell someone?" She rushed out.

"No Hermione. Lest lay low and just watch them." I answered.

"But Alice what could they be up to? Who knows what they are doing for Voldemort!" said Ron tiredly.

"You should tell Dumbledore Al..." Ginny chipped in.

"No!" I yelled at her.

Ginny moved back.

"Sorry Gin. I'm just tired. We can tell Dumbledore though."

"Why not!" Hermione stood up.

"They could put everyone at Hogwarts in danger!" Ron added.

"GUYS!," I yelled above their grumbles. I lowered my voice again, "We'll we ca't go to Dumbledore. He trusts Snape. Snape will convince him not to listen to us."

"Sorry Alice. I never thought of it like that. It's just..." Ron broke of.

"It's just?" Hermione asked.

"It's just well most of my family is here. I want them to be safe." He replied.

Ginny stood up, "Aww is icle Ronnykins worried about his big bwothas and wittle sista!"

She chuckled whole heartedly. Hermione joined her.

"Oy! Not funny!! Ron shouted through the girl's laughter.

"It is Ronnykins! I'm Going to bed! Night! Coming Hermione? Alice?" Ginny asked.

"Yep coming!" Hermione answered and made her way towards the door, "Night!"

"Night," Ron Grunted and he disappeared up the stairs to his dorm.

I followed Hermione up to our dorm.

I jumped in to my comfy bed and instantly fell asleep.
