A/N there is a lot of switching POV's in this chapter. Soooo yeah. Enjoy :D

Hermione POV:

Ginny came bounding back into the Great hall a lot happier than she was a few minutes ago. I have to admit, I feel a lot better not that I have food in my stomach. Story of my life.

"Guess what guys!" Ginny said eagerly as she sat back down next to me.

"What?" Asked Harry.

"We are going to have a Halloween party! McGonagall is coming in here in a second to explain details" she said. Then we hear a strong voice booming across the Great Hall

"Hello students. I would like to announce that Miss Ginny Weasley and Mr. Potter are hosting a Halloween party. Now, it will only be fort he sixth year." She said. There where all sorts of 'Booos' and 'are you serious?!' Going around the hall. McGonagall raised her hand "silence! The seventh year students are to be in the yard at 6:30 on Halloween night. Come in costume, it is a requirement. Now, enjoy the rest of your meal!" She said. And with that we all went to talking about the upcoming night.

"Hermione! You and I are going to buy a costume!"

"Okay but I have the perfect place to go buy costumes." I said.

"My mum knows a woman who owns a costume shop in London and let me tell you, she has the best costumes ever. And she can have them specially made too." I said. Ginny looked excited.

"Okay! Let's go tomorrow! Thank goodness it's Friday" she said. I smiled and went back to eating my food.

********
I am so tired. It has been an extremely long day. I stripped and put on my pajamas, then I cuddled up in my bed and went to sleep. I didn't even bother brushing my teeth. That's how tired I am. Call me un hygienic, I honestly don't care. I just want sleep.

I fell into a deep sleep. So deep that I began to enter into another world. The air was cool and it was bright Yellow outside and it was like I was on a cloud. I looked ahead and saw a tall golden gate. Then I saw the Gate Keeper. It was Fred. He smiled and held out his arms, I ran up to him and gave him a great big hug, then.... He started melting. I was horrified I bent down on the ground trying to pick up his essence but each time... He'd slip from my grasp.

"No.... No don't! Come back! Please" I called. He just kept melting. The ground was absorbing him and there was nothing I could do. I stood up and fell back against the big golden gate tears streaming down my face in buckets. The gate opened and I fell backwards expecting to land on my bum on the ground I kept falling. I fell and fell into nothingness.

I woke up sweat covering my face. I looked over at the clock and it read 8:30 am. Perfect. I got up -still a little disturbed from the dream - and got ready. When I was ready I went down to the common room to see Draco putting on his shoes. We made eye contact for a split second and then I just kept walking out of the room into the corridors so I could get to breakfast.

None of my squad was at the Gryffindor table yet. But Ron was sitting at the end of the table. As usual. I sat down alone waiting for everyone to get here. I look over at him to see that he has moved about 15 ft closer to me than he was just a second ago.... I didn't think much of it and went back to fiddling with my fork.

I look up at him again tides him walking over to me.... He's walking over to me... SHIT! WTF DO I DO?! OKAY KEEP IT COOL AND TRY NOT TO PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE.

"Hey Hermione, can I sit?"

"I don't know, can you?" I Said refusing to make eye contact with him.

"Wh-what?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.

"'Can' means do you have the ability to do something. When asking if you can do something  you would say 'May I sit' not 'can I sit' because I'm sure you have the bloody capability to sit!"  I said in almost one breath. I looked at him for a second just to see the look on his face. He was obviously frustrated.
