You find yourself back again to avoiding everyone and eating in your room. Not only are you completely humiliated by what happened but also you don't want to have to tell them about the men, or the picture one had, or the strike or any of it.
Of course they tried to contact you. Luna, Hermione and Blaise all rang you several times but you didn't want to talk.
During lessons you kept your head down and other than that you ate and completed homework all within the confinements of your room. You had changed the password as well so that if Hermione dropped the shields, they still couldn't get in.
You did feel bad for shutting everyone out but it was how you coped.
This went on for weeks. April faded into May and the teachers began to panic about your upcoming NEWT exams. Lessons were all based around revision and discussing possible exam topics.
Being on your own each night with not much else to do meant that you were well prepared for your exams. The same can't be said for the others. Hermione looked on edge and her hair was growing bigger by the day.
Pansy had larger bags under her eyes than anything she carried on her arm and Ron looked like he might be sick at any given moment.
It was one after about a week before your exams when you headed to the library to return a book. You scanned the code and smiled to Madame Pince as you made your way to the shelf when you hear mumbling at the other size of the stand.
You carefully make your way along carefully trying not to make a sound. You edge along and are about to turn the corner to see who it is when a hand grabs your shoulder and another covers your mouth.
"It is me! It is Hermione!" the voice whispers.
You are about to turn and ask her what the hell she is doing when she puts her finger to her lips and points around the corner. You both look round to see Astoria frantically leaning over her notepad scribbling from a textbook.
"Must work. It has to work." She mumbles. You hear her say "Draco", and "no choice."
"What is she up to?" you whisper but Hermione shrugs.
A boy from your year comes round at that moment to Astoria's table. "It's closing time," he says politely.
"Oh...ok," she mumbles and begins to pack up.
"You better be putting these all back where you found them?" he states at the 10 textbooks she has.
"But that will take ages."
"Tough you took them out!"
She huffs but lifts the books and walks off to put them away. Once he is gone Hermione and you walk up to her table. You open her notebook to see what she is up to.
"Oh Merlin she is going to create a love potion for Draco. She has the ingredients and directions all here." You show Hermione.
"We have to warn him."
"Draco and I aren't exactly talking. You may do it."
"He won't believe me. We both will tell him."
"Actually I have an idea," you smile and take out your wand removing some of the ingredients and changing others.
"Isn't that dangerous?"
"Not if you know what you are doing. If she makes this potion here and gives it to him the results will be bloody hilarious!"
"Oh I think I know this potion," she giggles.
You hear footsteps so you put the book back where you found it and run back to your hiding spot.
