Granger Danger

Seventeen

The next day, Hailey seemed a little tired from last night. The message haunted her still. She looked at Professor McGonagall teaching them how to turn their pet into a cup. "Ah. Mr. Weasley. "One, two, three, Vera Verto."

Hailey looked at her red head friend just for the spell not to work properly because of his wand. She looked at her sister to see her hand up. "Yes, Miss. Granger."

"Professor, I was wondering if you could tell us about the Chamber of Secrets." Hermione asked causing Hailey to look at the professor.

Everyone looked at McGonagall with interesting looks. When she started telling them the history, Hailey was more interested in this then most of the students. She felt her sister grab her hand as they saw Malfoy look at them causing her to glare as the story continued. Hailey looked back to their professor as she wonders what is in that chamber. Something that is terrifying.

Harry looked at Hailey as she looked at him not liking what they were hearing.

"Do you think it's true?"

Hailey listened as she walked with her hand in his as Ron and Hermione spoke. "If there really is a chamber and it really has been opened, then that means..."

"Yep. The Heir of Slytherin has returned to Hogwarts." Hailey says as Harry looked at her. "The only issue is..."

"Who is it?" Hermione says.

"Let's think. Who do we know who thinks all Muggle borns are scum?" Ron says.

"If you're talking about Malfoy..."

Hailey didn't say anything, but listen. Harry started talking as Ron may be right. "There might be another way." She finally said. "Hermione..."

"It's very dangerous."

"It's worth a shot."

Hailey was looking at books as Hermione told them about the Poly juice potion causing her to look at them. Harry put his arm around Hailey as this plan was all they had.

Hailey stood with her sister as they watched the game. Hermione looked at her sister as she could tell she was relaxing and enjoying the game. "Hailey, don't let Malfoy get to you."

"I'm not." She tells her. "I'm just worried now. If the chamber is really opened..." she trailed off as she saw the bludger going after Harry.

"I'll fix it.'

"No, you won't." Hailey tells him. "Even with a good wand, it's too risky. You'll hit Harry."

Hermione knew right there that her sister cares more for Harry than what most of them do. Hailey watched with a worried look as they didn't see Harry nor Malfoy. "Hailey, he knows what he is doing."

"I know." She said as she watched.

They saw Harry reaching for the snitch just to get hit in the arm. Hailey was already moving down to him as her sister and friend followed. She heard the announcement that they won making her pull her wand out. "Finite Incantato!" She said causing the bludger to blow up. Hailey ran to Harry and hugged him. "Are you okay?"

"No. I think my arm is broken."

"Not to worry, Harry..."

Hailey glared as she watched the professor cast a spell on Harry's arm just for him to cause his bone to disappear. "Why you..."

Hermione covered her mouth.

In the infirmary, Hailey stood beside Harry's bed as he spit out the drink. "Shouldn't have chugged it." She tells him.

"Hush, Hailey." Harry said. "I'll talk to you tomorrow."

Hailey nodded as she kissed his cheek before leaving. Harry smiled as he looked at the potion he has to drink. I think I like Hailey Granger.
