"Out of the way, Granger." Draco Malfoy pushed past her to the ingredients cupboard in the potions room.
"Honestly, how rude could you get, Malfoy?" She pushed him back as she reached for the bottle on the top shelf, but, found herself just ever slightly too short.
"Need some help?" The blonde haired boy smirked as he looked her up and down - why was he still here anyways, "Seems like you're a little short."
The brunette spun around and glared at him, "Yes, I've noticed that, thank you very much." she pulled out her wand, "Accio," the bottle flew down to her, "And no, I won't be needing your help."
"Well, you did say that I was acting rude so I was just offering my help." He shot her a half smirk half smile and walked off to his bench. There was something about that smile that was somewhat genuine, it was a playful smile. Not the hateful smirk he used to give her every time they saw each other, even when they were still kids, no. It was different and Hermione hated it.
She hated the way if made her want to smile back, the way it made her want to grin inwardly to herself or the way it tinged her cheeks a rosy colour. Merlin, she hated that stupid smile of his, but at the same time, she just couldn't get enough.

"Open," she commanded in Parseltongue.

"...the more power you hold, the more difficult it becomes to control it..."

- Like a blade, swift and cold, slicing straight down her spine. Her breath caught. Her body locked and heartbeat stopped.
Her fingers dug into the fabric of pants as a black void swelled in her vision-and then, clear as crystal, it appeared: a hooded skull, looming above her like a specter torn from the darkest pages of a horror tale. Its dark hollow eyes pierced straight into her viridescent, paralyzed gaze. Blood pooled beneath its feet, and though it didn't move, Alice could feel its presence-massive, ancient, aware.
Its gaze was fixed solely on her.
She couldn't look away.
Couldn't breathe.
Couldn't move. -

"Easy now, Potter. I come in peace," she teased, her voice light.

"You're the only thing... That makes sense to me in this world."
