Walking Down The Corridors
Hermione's heart dropped. She whipped her head around to see the confused face of one of her fellow classmates.
Neville Longbottom.
"Neville!" She exclaimed. "How long have you been there for?" Hermione questioned him sheepishly. Neville begab to walk twords her. "All I heard was Malfoy calling you 'Mia'." Neville began. "I couldn't hear anything else due to the water in my ear. Gryffindors had a huge party at the lake! Oh yea..where have you been? Harry, Ron, and a few others have been looking for you all over the school grounds!" Hermione sighed in relif. 'Thank Merlin he didn't hear me say I love you.' She thought to herself. "I was in the library this whole time, I had some work to catch up on so I thought now would be a good time to do it." Hermione said, hoping Neville would belive her. He smiled at her and nodded his head. "Classic Hermione." The two of them laughed together, but were interrupted when Semus Finnigan and Dean Thomas came from around the corner.
"Hello Hermione," said Dean. Hermione gave a small wave as a way of saying hello. "So basically, the boys are having a small quidditch match against Ravenclaw. You guys down to watch?" Asked Semus. "Ofcourse I would!" Said Neville. "You comming Hermione?" "I'm alright, I'm quite tired to be honest so I think I will just head to sleep." Hermione explained. The boys accepted her denial and wished her a good night. She wished them the same and headed to the Gryffindor Dorms. 'That was close.' She thought. Hermione had to have been the luckiest girl in the world for Neville not to hear their conversation.
She continued to walk to the Gryffindor dorms, hoping she wouldn't be stopped again. Once she arrived at the portrait of the Fat Lady, she whispered the password and walked inside.
It was a little past 7:30pm so students would soon begin to come back to their dorms. Hermione saw only a few Gryffindors in the common room but ignored them and went to her bedroom. Once she arrived, she began to change into her night clothes. As she was undressing, she remembered the Slytherin scarf that Draco had given her earlier in the day. She took it off then held it close to her and closed her eyes.
'God I love you, Draco."
She put the scarf near her pillow and finally finished changing. Once she had done everything she needed to, she laid down onto her bed, put the covers over her, and held the scarf close to her.
She drifted off into a peaceful sleep moments later.
