Harry Potter and Hermione Granger

Christmas Day Surprises

   Harry woke up to a ticking sound. then a loud bang "Wake up Gryffindor!" shouted a voice, excited. "Whoa." Draco said "Look at them all!" he gasped. He ran down the remainder of the stairs, Him and Harry both stopping after spotting Hermione. "Whoa... Look at her." said Harry. her face turned a fair shade of crimson as she rested her hand on his shoulder. "Merry Christmas, dear" he told her. Her red and green dress flushing behind her lightly. "Delightful" she said, laughing. He smiled at her. He leaned down, seeing Draco look away as he leaned down, kissing her. He embraced her as she blushed. "Anyways.." she said pulling away "Come on." she grabbed his hand pulling him along behind her. "Well then" she said, handing him a news paper, wrapped, box. He blushed seeing her grand presents. "Well lets open them!" he said.

    "Wow" he said opening the box, pulling out a cloak. "What is it?" he asked. "Harry!" Hermione squealed "It's an invisibility cloak!" she screamed, pulling it from his light grasp. She smiled as he blushed. She pulled it over her shoulders, clipping it. She lifted it over her head, it falling straight into place. Covering her entire face, and body, showing the wall behind her, rendering her invisible. He laughed "Amazing!" he said as she moved around behind him, he still thought she was there though. She placed her hand on his face, causing him to jump. She lifted the cloak slightly revealing her face, she brought her lips to his, kissing him. His spine tingled as Draco walked to them "Stupefy!" he shouted at Harry, sending him flying. "Petrificus Totalus!" shouted Hermione, freezing him. She ran to Harry, crying, "Hes just jealous" Harry reassured her. She laughed unfreezing Draco. Who shot up "What the bloody hell Hermione!" he shouted.

    Hermione flinched and Harry bent down and whispered in his ear "Run to fluffy" he told her slipping the cloak over her. He could feel the wind shift as she ran off. Harry held his wand ready, muttering under his breath "Snape. Severus Snape, come here. Snape. Come. Severus Snape, appear". Suddenly there was a loud pop, "Harry James Potter." he said "Do you know how many spells I had to break to get here?" he asked coldly, turning to face Draco, he gasped his wand flew to ready. "Expelliarmus!" he shouted. Draco's wand flying off. Harry smirked at the sight of his face. "Now why are you two dueling, let me guess, over Miss Granger?" he said, a cold sarcastic tone to his voice. "I didn't duel, Snape. I called you so I wouldn't have to." Said Harry and Draco flinched. "I didn't mean to start a duel." he said. Exasperated. Harry glared "Bull!" he shouted. And Snape clamped a hand over his mouth "Well, well, Its quite alright. You wont be Punished Mr. Malfoy, Another slip up and i will personally hand you in. And not to Dumbledore" he said. Harry's eye brows knitted together as his glare grew more intense, but now directed at Snape it felt more powerful. Snape disappeared with a loud pop. 

     "Who would he hand you into?" he asked Draco as they walked down the hallway to find Hermione. She had given Harry instructions as to where to go. Harry headed past the moving staircase and into the room. Draco frowned "Are we alone?" he asked Harry. Harry simply nodded, fearful. "Ok, My father? Lucius Malfoy? He is a death Eater. Serves our Mr. Voldy. I want to warn you, he wants you dead. He wants me to kill Dumbledore. And he is right now, Professor Quirrell." Said Draco, looking scared as he scanned the room. Harry took in a deep breath as light footsteps hit the ground and Crabbe and Goyle came out, being dragged by their ears by and Anxious professor Quirrell. "Come along now" he said to them. "Where did she go?" he asked looking around, Harry quickly pulled Draco into a corner. Frowning Draco listened for a voice, which he heard very soon. A unidentifiable voice came out from behind the professor "Now now Quirrell be gentle. They are of use." he said. Harry winced, his scar felt like a hot iron had been forced onto his head and was advancing in pressure and heat. Draco caught him before he fell, allowing Harry to put his weight on him. He heard a shushed voice say "Come on... Is Harry ok?". Draco looking no where said "Yeah, Hermione, hes fine. Its his scar I reckon. Your behind on your favorite professor.". The voice sounded concerned "Harry's scar only hurts when something really dangerous is coming, or hes near You-Know-Who" said a voice Harry was fairly sure now, over the pain, was Hermione.

    "Come on" said Hermione, they were all now encased in the cloak. Harry's scar was long over hurting as they made there way to the three headed Fluffy. When they heard a dreaded sound "Tick Tock". Music was playing "Hes here!" gasped Hermione "He beat us". Harry nodded, telling her she was right as he winced. The pain in his scar a white hot fire. She frowned in sympathy for the one she loved. He touched his hand to hers, temporarily forgetting pain. Knowing only she was here for him, here with him. Draco smiled, for once ok with the affection shown. Harry laughed as they walked in seeing the door flung open and two frozen Slytherins. "Crabbe and Goyle" said Draco kicking them ruefully. Harry walked beside them, trying not to come into contact. Hermione winced as she kicked a hat and it shattered. They made their slow advance to the door, and jumped in. They heard a creaking noise as another door flung open and out flew the ghost of Lily Potter. After Harry recovered his senses he continued. "Where are we?" he asked his friends. Hermione shrugged and so did Draco. suddenly they walked onto something similar to a checker board "Chess" said draco scared "Its real.". Harry laughed "real?". Draco nodded. And Hermione said "Harry the pieces are alive...." she said and Harry ran, swiping his wand, cutting them in half, yelling for them to hurry.

    Hermione, Panting, caught up with them and grimace. Her breaths ragged. She frowned as even Harry fell over. "Harry.." she gasped as all three fell down, drained of power.
