The Boy Who Changed

Chapter 8-Search

I get to the infirmary. "MADAM POMFREY QUICK! I FOUND HERMIONE!"

Madam Pomfrey is there with a blink of an eye. "Lay her down right here Draco. I need one of my hunger pang potions. Get it Luna!"

Luna Lovegood appears with a red potion. "Here you go Madam."

Pomfrey grabs it and pours it into Hermione's mouth. Hermione swallows it.

Her color comes back almost instantly. "Will she be okay Madam?"

"Yes now at least. Where'd you find her?"

"Triena must've used a cloaking spell or a melding spell. Her closet door was gone and I maybe knocked in my closet wall into hers. She was tied up in there. Then I gave her a bucket of water with a straw and she drank all of it."

"It's good you let her drink. Now Draco. You look awful too, have you been eating and drinking."

I rub the back of my neck. "Maybe I've stopped eating and drinking as much."

"Draco Malfoy!"

Hermione was glaring at me. "You shouldn't do that Draco! It could get you sick!"

Madam Pomfrey laughs, "I guess that was put as best as it could. How are you feeling Hermione?"

"Much better!"

"Now Draco, bring her to get food. It is dinner time."

Hermione's POV

I feel Draco's strong arms lift me up into the air. He really loves carrying me bridal style.

"Hermione I broke my promise."

"What promise?"

"That I wouldn't take my eyes off of you."

"Oh Draco, you couldn't have kept me safe the whole time."

"I would've tried though. And I thought this year was gonna be easy."

I hang my arms around his neck. "Who said taking care of me is easy?"

"Nobody."

Draco shoots me a smirky smile. He sets me down and I fall forward. He catches me by my waist.

"Steady there girl!"

He holds me close. "Do you know how hard it is to take care of you?"

"Do you know how hard it is to walk after not walking for two days?"

"No I'm sorry Hermione."

He holds me up by my waist and I take a couple unsteady steps forward. Then I get more used to walking again and I can do it without Draco's help.

"I can walk again Draco."

He puts his mouth right next to my ear, "I know but I'm never letting you go."

We this way all the way to the Slytherin table. Baisly, Harry, Ginny, and Pansy are sitting together. We sit next to them.

"Oh my gush Hermione!"

Ginny runs up to me and hugs me a little too tight. "Ginny I'm still a little shaken."

"Oh I'm sorry but I've missed you so very much."

"Hermione!"

Harry runs up and Baisly and Pansy follow. They all surround me with a hug. "I'm so happy that your okay!"

I laugh at Harry, "I've gotten through worse. Remember the Horcruxes?"

He nods and everyone laughs. Draco grabs my chair and pulls it out for me. I sit down, smiling.

He sits next to me and so does Ginny. He holds my hand smiling. Ginny winks at me. "So, when did Draco-"

Pansy covers her mouth. She whispers something to her that I can't hear. Ginny giggles and smiles. Pansy laughs. "What? What's so funny?"

Harry shrugs at me and Draco puts his arm around my shoulder. "They aren't talking about anything."

I lean my head on his shoulder. He play with my hair. "Hermione, you can here to eat. "

"Draco you have to eat too!"

"Fine."

He looks at the table and picks up a piece of chicken. He shoves it in his mouth and swallows. "I ate. Actually I'm really hungry!"

He starts loading his plate with food. I do too and the rest of them too. "Hey where is Ron?"

"Being a jerk." That was Ginny's only reply.

Baisly looks at them curiously, "We aren't gonna-"

Everyone then said, "Sh!"

"What'd Ron do?"

"I'll tell you later Hermione."

Draco gave me a almost completely caring stare. "Promise me Malfoy."

"I promise."

I smile at him. He takes my hand in his and squeezes it. Baisly starts laughing, "You two are too hilarious. It's so lovey dovey."

Pansy punches him in the arm. "Well I think it's sweet, numbskull."

Ginny and Harry start laughing. Draco smiles and I giggle.

"Hermione. Wanna head back to our room?"

"Sure Draco."

We walked back up to our room. He had his arm entangled in mine. I was still getting looks like I was a ghost.

Neville and Luna didn't seem phased when we passed them at least. That was good. Maybe they are just too used to it, people disappearing of course.

We get to our room. "Polyjuice."

Snape opens for me and Draco releases my hand. I walk in and Snape shuts. I wonder if he wants to talk to Draco?

Draco's POV

"Snape I need advice."

Snape's eyes look into mine. "It's about Hermione I'm guessing."

"Yes."

"What is it?"

"I need to ask her on a date and I need to talk to her about my Mark."

Snape's eyes widen, "First off, be yourself for the date thing. Secondly, what happened to your Mark?"

I never told Snape! "Ever since I got close to Granger, it seems that my Mark is fading. But the other's Marks aren't even moved."

"Just tell her exactly what you told me but be more caring about it. It is most likely because of her. She does seem to feel for you quite a lot."

"Polyjuice."

Snape opens and I walk in to face Hermione.
