Chapter 9

For music here! :)

POV. Hermione

Was it Malfoy's scent?
I looked around and saw Malfoy looking shocked.

Ron interrupted my thought and said:
I smell flowers and a sort of perfume i think..(Hermione's perfume).
Was it my scent? No it can't be.

'Well done!' said professor.

'Thank you!' I said.

We walked back to our seats. I got a weird feeling when I walked to my seat.
I looked at Ron and Harry. Ron was still shocked from what he smelled.

Harry looked thoughtfully in someone's direction.
I looked around to see who he was looking at.
He looked at Malfoy.
Why was he looking at him?

I looked back at the professor who was finishing the lesson.
Why did I keep getting a bad feeling in my lower abdomen?
Don't think about it, I said to myself.

'You may go. Remember practicing the amortentia potion!' said the professor.

We walked out of the room. Harry was already gone, I could just see him leave around the corner.
Where is he going?
We actually have lunch now.

POV. Draco

Granger smelled my scent..
She smelled my scent!
No she couldn't, maybe it was a mistake.

She already smelled one scent. You can't smell two scents.
Right?
Maybe she just wanted to pull a prank on me.

I didn't realize Granger was looking at me. I was too lost in my thoughts.

I looked shocked but when I met her eyes she was shocked as well.
Maybe this wasn't a prank.

They walked back to their seats, when they were finished.
I kept feeling a strange feeling.

The professor was still finishing the lesson.
Then I left the room as quickly as possible.
Maybe it had to do with the sign.

I went to the restrooms on the 3rd floor.
No one ever comes there.
I stood by the sink and waited but nothing came. No call.

That feeling was something else.
"I know you bear the mark." Said someone standing a few feet behind me.
Potter?!

POV. Harry
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can't help them.

'Noo!!'

Malfoy do it!
You're almost a real death-eater!
You must kill her!!

'NO!!'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I suddenly woke up. What was that?
Was it a nightmare? And who were they talking about?
And Malfoy who has the sign?

I need to speak to Professor Dumbledore.
I got out of bed and got dressed.

Luckily it was still late in the evening and Ron was already asleep in his room.
We had gone to bed on time because we were exhausted from studying a lot.
We didn't even realize Hermione wasn't there. I walked out of the room and went to Dumbledore.

I walked up the stairs to his office and heard him talking. He was talking to Hermione.
I could just hear what they were saying.

Actually I shouldn't listen to them but I had to wait anyway and it couldn't hurt, right?
That was when I heard it.

"How did you know Malfoy had the sign?" Hermione said to Professor

Malfoy has the sign!?
No! That nightmare is a predictor of what can happen..

"I've known for a while." said professor.
But..
He he lied to me

'Then why didn't you say anything?' asked Hermione
'Because otherwise you can change the future. Everyone has a certain time when they learn something.'
'You may not have known it until this afternoon, but others may hear or see it later. Or not at all.' said professor

I quickly ran away before they saw me. That couldn't happen. I had to think of what to do now.
I need answers, so I need to speak to Malfoy tomorrow.

POV. Draco

'P- Potter!'
'What are you doing here?!'
'And what are you talking about?'

'You know what I am talking about'
"You don't have to hide it anymore." He said

'What are you talking about?'

"I'm talking about that devilish sign!"

'How did you know?'

'You don't need to know.'

He must have heard it from Granger. I knew I couldn't trust her!
I had to get out of here. I don't know what he's capable of.

"I want to know something." he said
'What?!'
"Did you hex that girl in 2nd year?" "You know that blonde."

I was quiet. I didn't know what to say.
I could say yes but it wasn't me.
It was Gregory who did that.
But we swore not to tell. So I just said whatever came to mind.

'Perhaps..'
"Then what were you going to do, Potter?" "Wave your staff?" I said sarcastically

“You know Malfoy. I'm really done with you!' he said

He lit his staff but I beat him so I cast a spell.

'Bombarda!' (exploring charm)

Potter tried to avoid it and I tried to hide. I couldn't just leave.

I was behind the toilets. I heard Potter cast a few spells and I tried to dodge them but got hit on 1 of them.
I quickly walked in another direction. I heard Potter say at once:

'Sectum sempra!'

I saw Potter aim the staff at me and try to avoid him. But then I got distracted because I heard a familiar voice.

'Draco! Watch out!'

It was Granger.
But when I realized that I was already touched.
I fell to the ground in a large puddle of water.

'Ahhhh'
I had wounds all over and blood was all over my shirt.

I heard Hermione say:

'What the Hell! What did you do Harry!'
"That was a spell you can't use here at school!"

I could still see her running towards me.

'I am sorry Hermione' 'I didn't know what came over me!'

'Shut up okay?'
'We need to heal him before he dies'
'We'll talk later!'

'Okay'

'Draco? hey?'
'Look at me.'
'It's gonna be okay!' 'I'll heal you!'
'Just keep looking at me!'

I nodded

I heard her saying spells to heal me.
I still looked at her.
Actually, she was quite beautiful.

Get it out of your head, Malfoy. I said to myself.

Then she told me to be taken to the infirmary. She had already healed me  a lot, but not everything.
Potter helped Granger to take me to the infirmary.
Why did she help me?
She looked worried.
Was the smell of Amortentia, what she had real?

Hope you liked this chapter! Up to the next one! :)
