Dementor's Kiss (Harry Potter) *ON HOLD*

Chapter 6: You have to stroke it?

After Divination the four were walking down to Care of Magical Creatures. Harry was staring at the ground and being quiet. Cali frowned and put her arm through his and lightly tugged his arm, he looked up at him and gave her a small smile. She sighed and looked up ahead where Ron and Hermione were ranting about Divination.

"You don't think that Grim thing's got anything to do with Sirius Black?" Ron asked, he glanced behind to look at them before turning around to look at Hermione again who then scoffed and rolled her eyes.

"Oh, honestly, Ron. If you ask me, Divination's a wooly discipline. Now, Ancient Runes, that's a fascinating subject." Ron and Hermione stopped walking so Cali and Harry were walking with them, but Cali miscounted steps and fell forward she felt arms grab around her waist and pull her up. She was about to thank Harry until she turned around and saw that is was Ron, his face was flushed a little red.

"Oh, um thank you Ron." He nodded and hurriedly sped up walking.

Cali glanced over to see Harry with a stony expression on his face, she frowned and looked to see Hermione who had the same look. She sighed but they kept walking and Ron turned around to look at Hermione breaking the silence.

"Ancient Runes? Exactly how many classes are you talking?" Hermione sniffed slightly and flipped her hair over her shoulder.

"A fair few." Harry brushed by Ron who had stopped walking and Cali followed after Harry.

"Hang on. That's not possible. Ancient Runes is at the same time as Divination. You'd have to be a two places at once." 

Cali pulled on Harry's arm to make him look at her. "Harry, you ok?" He gave a short nod but stopped walking waiting for Ron and Hermione who were still talking. Cali groaned and rolled her eyes, if he was going to act all moody then so would she.

"Don't be silly. How could anyone be in two classes at once?" Ron glanced at Harry, who just shrugged his shoulders.

"Broaden your minds?"Hermione scoffed and shook her head. "Use your Inner Eye to see the future!" She laughed which caused them all chuckle slightly. They finally made it down the hill to Hagrid's Hut.

Hagrid was standing outside his hut waving his arms to all the students which he also had dead ferrets hanging around his neck. Cali frowned slightly, why did Hagrid have dead ferrets hanging around his neck. 

"That's it. Come on, now. come closer. Less talking, if don't mind. I got a real treat for you today. An great lesson. So follow me." He led the kids into the forest past his hut to a small woodland clearing.

"Right, you lot. Less chattering. Form a group over there." He pointed over to a wall that had a small hole in it. "And open your books to page 49." 

Some of the kids look at him crazily, Draco looked at his book disgustingly and backed up. "Exactly how do we do that?"

Some of the kids look at their books frightfully, Cali couldn't blame them. The thing reminded her of a spider, and she was horribly afraid of spiders. Hagrid turned around and looked at Malfoy like it was the most common thing in the world.

"You stroke the spine of course. Goodness me," He turned around and kept walking shaking his head.

The students stroked the spines of the books and most of them purred and opened up. Neville who must of not heard, opened his up and the thing started attacking him and he fell to the ground trying to fight it off while the other students just stood there and laughed.

"Don't be such a wimp Longbottom."

Neville sat up trying to brush some of the dirt off him. "I'm okay, I'm okay." Then the book started attacking him again. Cali walking over to him going for the book she grabbed it and stroked the spine. The book purred and opened up to her, she stook out her hand and Neville grabbed it and gave a small smile and joined the group.
