what now

i just made a drarry playlist and now i'm so powerful i can make any girl love me

harry, ron, and hermione were in the library. they grabbed some books for upcoming exams and sat on the ground near a windowsill in the corner of the library. they started reading but harry couldn't focus

« are you ok? » hermione asked harry. she noticed him just flipping through pages and he wouldn't stop tapping the floor with his foot

« huh? oh yea. i'm fine »

« harry, i'm not stupid. what's wrong ? » she asked while closing her book and scooting next to harry. ron sitting on the other side of him

« so i told snape that i wasn't going to get better at his class. he said he would get me a tutor. i didn't think much of it but i think i know who's going to tutor me. and i'm not excited »

« who? » ron asked

« uh... malfoy » harry said nervously

« malfoy? come on harry be serious » hermione said

« i'm being completely serious. when i was trying to find you guys i saw him talking with him and they both looked at me »

« bloody hell harry. they always look at you. when we're at the great hall hermione always tells me that malfoy is looking at you » ron said while opening his book again

« he does? why didn't you guys tell me? »

« because we didn't want you to be weirded out » hermione told him. she had a little anger in her voice

« whatever. i dont want him tutoring me »

« why not? if you don't want him to so badly have 'mione do it » ron said. he also sounded mad

« because i dont wanna embarrasse myself in front of him. i know he's smart »

« get over it harry! you can either fail the class or get a tutor! » at this point, hermione was basically yelling at him, « who cares if it's malfoy! pass the damn class and maybe you two can be friends for once! ron and i are tired of the fighting between us and malfoy and his friends! just because you're friends with pansy doesn't mean anything! i want to talk to her once without anyone making fun of us! just let him tutor you for fucks sake! »

ron and harry just stared at her. they both didn't realize how important them becoming friends is. ron agreed with her though

« i'm sorry hermione i didn't know how important this was for you »

« you know, i've been talking to pansy for longer than you guys think. out of school we would send letters to each other and would try to meet up at restaurants. she means a lot to me » she said with watery eyes. she got up and walked out. ron followed

harry was now sitting alone. he thought about what she said

after about one minute, he got up and was going to try and find snape

•

he was walking around for two minutes. he entered his classroom and saw him sitting at his desk

« uh, professor. can i talk with you? »

« yes of course. take a seat »

harry sat at the desk closest to snape

« so about my tutor, who is it and when and where will we be studying? »

« who is it? that's for me to know and for you to find out. as for when and where, you will meet thirty minutes before dinner in my classroom tomorrow. i will not be here because the person i put you with... i trust them enough to keep you tame. now leave »
