Unexpected

 

“Oh, no! I forgot my History of Magic book in my dorm.” Ron sighed loudly, making Hermione look up from her homework.

“This is the library, Ron. They have the book right over there,” Hermione pointed to a shelf behind him.

“But the Slytherins are over there,” Ron moaned, “and I really don’t want to face Malfoy right now and…”

“Honestly, Ronald.” Hermione hissed. “You are hopeless, do you know that?”

She got up and walked towards the Slytherins.

Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and Parkinson were all sitting laid-back in their chairs, tripping first-year Hufflepuffs by hexing their shoelaces together.

Theodore Nott, on the other hand, was just sitting there, reading ‘Hogwarts: A History’ and seemed to not register what was going on around him.

Hermione smiled to herself. That was one of her favourite books, and she had never seen anyone else reading it before.

“Oh, look,” Malfoy called out. “The Mudblood’s here. Can’t stay away from us, can you?” Malfoy sniggered and Crabbe, Goyle and Pansy followed suit. The fifth boy didn’t join in.

“Shut up, Malfoy,” Hermione sneered and started looking at the shelf for the right book. She located it on the top shelf and took out her wand to summon it.

“Accio, A History of Magic,” she called. The book didn’t budge.

“Accio, A History of Magic!” She tried again, but still no luck.

Hermione heard the Slytherins chuckle behind her.

“ACCIO, A HISTORY OF MAGIC!” she yelled, but nothing happened, except for Pansy Parkinson howling with laughter.

Hermione turned around and saw that Draco Malfoy had his wand out, pointing it at the same book. He was blocking her charm.

Hermione was getting furious, and pointed her wand at Draco.

“Stop it this instantly or I’ll….”

She didn’t get to finish her sentence before the book fell on the floor in front of her.

Hermione looked at the bunch of Slytherins and realised that Theodore Nott had just summoned the book for her.

Nott turned to Draco. “Really, Malfoy… Don’t you have anything better to do than to do some really childish blocking charms? Don’t you have some more first-years to terrorise?

Malfoy’s face went even paler than usual. He sneered at Nott and left the library, followed by Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle.

Hermione just stood there, shocked, staring at the Slytherin boy.

“Well, now you have your book,” he simply said, before he sat down and started reading again.

Hermione was baffled. Had she just been helped by a Slytherin? Could it really be that they weren’t all that bad?

She picked up the book and walked over to him.

“Nott?”

He looked at her.

"Thanks." She smiled at him.

“Don’t get used to it, Mudblood.” Theodore Nott replied and looked down at his book again.

I love how Theodore summons the book for her...and I don't even that much disagree with the ending, as there are plenty of Slytherins who take that stance. It pissed me off when I first read it, but everyone else probably grinned. Maybe if she hadn't smiled at him he wouldn't have said it- not that that's a fault on Hermione's part. She is after all the school champion of good inter-house co-operation.

wow, that was nice ;) Thank you :D

You know my own opinions about this fic, so I just hope that you say what you really mean and don't feel you have to hide stuff ;)

I'm glad you said that it pissed you off at first, I want that honesty :)

And yaaay, I've pissed someone off with my fic... :D haha

It is a little childish, but that's the second-or-third-or-fourth language thing cropping up. Malfoy is perfectly in character though. You have him doing typical Draco things in a typical Draco fashion. Pansy was done well, as much as there was of her. I still hate the ending, I just hate to think of that side of the silver and green. It's there below the surface all the time like a vat of poison ready to "bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses"

I can totally agree with childish ;) but that's not just because of the second-language thing. I do have a lack of vocabulary in Norwegian as well, and my writing have always been quite simple and childish. As well as a childish mind ;)

At least you pissed someone off!!! :D XD

This was pretty cool.
I never thought about a HG/TN relationship, but I liked that one very much.

[snapealina.livejournal.com]

thanks :D

I never thought I would write this pairing, but it was this weeks challenge on Sorting Hat Drabbles, so I gave it a try.

[potterpsycho.livejournal.com]

Like I said, I enjoyed it, so I don't mind if there were more from this one :D

Hmm, never thought of Hermione and Theodore Nott together, I kinda like it. It's a different pairing for her. (It's certainly better then Ron)
Will there be more of these two?
I liked it!

[snapealina.livejournal.com]

I have no idea if I will write more of those two. I might, because it was kind of a fun pairing. But I'm Nott sure...hahahahaaaa

Thanks for liking it :D I've gotten some mixed reviews on this one ;)
