Chapter 2 Bane \\noun\\ 1:poison 2:woe, harm; also: a source of this- baneful \\adj\\ From: The Merriabstebster Concise School and Office Dictionary Copyright1991

******************************************************

Hermione quickly fell onto the floor as she felt the wound sting. Draco must have damaged an organ inside.

Blood filled Hermione\'s hands and soon her skirt was tainted with it as well.

She felt that she was losing a great amount of blood in a short span of time. Her limbs failed her and a few seconds more, her eyes were slowly shutting close. If none would be there to save her, she\'d be found dead the next morning.

\"Somebody, please. . . help me. . .\", Hermione\'s agonizing voice didn\'t even echoed once.

She felt she was losing it. Out of nowhere, someone rushed to her direction Her Hermione was already half-conscious, she was only able to see an angelic face carrying her somee.

*********************************************************

\"Ms, Granger, it\'s time to take your medicine\", madam Pomfrey stated as she held a bottle in her hand.

Hermione slowly opened her eyes. Shelizelized that she was already inside the hospital wing the next morning, then, her wound started to sting again.

\'Ouch!\"

\"Very bad, I must say. Lucky you were brought here at once. If not, you must have been dead before the sun could even rise\"

\"Who brought me here?\", Hermione queried. She couldn\'t remember much of what happened the night before.

\"I have no idea. Last night, I heard a knock from the door, and as I od itd it, your body lay unconscious on the floor. No one was around except you but I reckon you couldn\'t have managed to walk alone\"

Hermione didn\'t ask anything more. She didn\'t want to think of whapphappened but flashes of memory came into her mind. She was so occupied when Madam Pomfrey broke in.

\"Ms. Granger, may I ask who, in Merlin\'s name, did this to you?\"

Draco\'s face suddenly popped into Hermione\'s mind. But he threatened her about revealing the truth about the incident.

\"I could not remember exactly, really. It must have been someone who lives in Hogsmeade. He isn\'t familiar\', Hermione lied.

\"Very well. I believe Mr. Potter and the Weasleys might visit you any minute now\"

Madam Pomfrey left Hermione after taking the medicine. A few moments later, Hermione fell asleep.

***********************************************************

Someone walked inside the hospital wing to Hermione\'s side, staring at Hermione\'s sleeping form, then changed the flowers beside her. After finishing, the man exited.

***********************************************************

Hermione started to wake up when she heard voices near her. She looked to se two huge students carrying another, as Madam Pomfrey withwith them to a bed, two beds away from her. A female student ran in as well, crying helplessly.

\"What happened there?\", Hermione asked the small company in an authoritative Head Girl tone.

She heard moaning from a male student who seemed to be experiencing extreme pain. Hermione sat up and winced, as she forgot the fresh wound at the side of her stomach.

\"Granger? What are you doing here bitch?\", Pansy inquired.

Hermione raised a brow at the pug-faced whore and spat.

\"I believe I am a patient here and I have the right to stay here. And you? What is your business here Parkinson?\"

\"Oh my baby was found terribly wounded. It\'s horrible!\"

Hermoine caught sight of the other patient.

\"You call that sa \'a \'baby\'? I can\'t believe even PURE blood wizards have the courage to use Muggle terms of endearment\", Hermione said sarcastically.

\"Mind your own business whore!\", Pansy snapped.

\"Excuse me but I believe you ARE the whore as I haven\'t any guy linked with me. . . with Ron as an exception though\".

Pansy glared and started to cry again at Draco\'s pitiful sight.

\"Stop it you two. This is the hospital wing and not just a mere school ground where you can go badgering each other. And you three, you can leave Mr. Malfoy now\", madam Pomfrey cut in.

Hermione was laughing discreetly to herself seeing her enemy in that state.

//Fits him well. People like him should be severely punished for his attitude. I hope he bleeds to death!//

As Madam Pomfrey finished attending to Draco, Hermione glanced quickly, only to see Draco looking at her already.

\"That\'s what you get for what you did to me last night. You almost had me killed! In fact, I thought I was dying! What were you thinking? I don\'t know what punishment awaits you if I report this to Professor Dumbledore. . . though even you did this, I won\'t tell. I can\'t just go around and tell people that I was stabbed as they would think I did the suspect something wrong, but of course I didn\'t. It\'s bad we have to share the hospital wing to ourselves. You must have chosen another day to fall wounded though I reckon you really deserve those. You deserve way more for putting my life almost at its end\", Hermione spat.

\"You make it seem I did this to myself. You know, I\'m not even a bit sorry for what I did last night. Any, yy, you haven\'t told Dumbledore about it. . .\" Draco snapped with a painful smirk. Wounds appeared like slashes on his damaged perfect pale skin.

\"Well as you can see, I can\'t leave this place until my wound gets better. How I wish you rot in here, you filthy scum!\"

\"Oh no I won\'t. You will\", Draco replied nonchalantly.

Silence came in between them. Hermione looked to the other side of the bed for about five minutes. She decided to look at Draco again. She saw him staring.

\"Have you been looking at me all this time?\"

\"No\"

Hermione glared at Draco who raised his brow at her.

\"So Mudblood, someone took you here. He must be feeling sorry as a mudblood like you survived. It would do me good if you could have just died there at the alley. But you know, it daunted on me why you haven\'t told anyone about this. . . why, are you afraid that the Death Eaters under my father\'s command will get you for tainting my family name with your dust? I pity you Granger-the trouble you have to go through, it\'s unbearable\"aco aco claimed.

\"The hell you care!\"

\"Oh I do care---\"

Draco was about to continue insulting Hermione with regards to her existence to the wizarding world. . . how they could do with one less of a mudblood, CARING to make Hermione\'s life a living hell, when Ron stormed in with a questioning look on his face. He heard Draco speaking. Harry followed short.

\"What\'s going on in here? Mione, what\'s wrong? You\'ve been acting strange lately. . . and now, what I heard from the ugly ferret about \'caring\'. . . tell me!\", Ron yelled furiously, with Harry holding him back.

Draco stared at the ceilingbreathing on the words \'ugly ferret\'. He knew well that he wasn\'t one. Besides, he didn\'t want to concern himself with the \'lover\'s spat\', which was, unfortunately, most likely to happen.

\"Nothing\'s wrong. Ron, you have no reason to get jealous. Malfoy and I were having our snapping session once again. As soon as I get out of here, we\'ll talk. . . but for now, pleas leave. I want to rest\", Hermione said coldly.

All Ron could do was look at her sadly, with suspicions arising in him, allowing Harry to pull him out of the infirmary.

Draco and Hermione were left alone again.

\"Granger, why did you do that? Are you starting to realize that I\'m a better companion than he? Forgive me, I don\'t want another girl drooling over me. I\'ve got loads already\"

\"You\'re so full of yourself!\" then she paused. . . \"To tell you honestly, I wanted this time alone with you. . . just you and me. . \", Hermione said teasingly.

\"That\'s not going to work Granger, I\'m telling you\", Draco claimed as he gave his famous smirk to Hermione who got up from her bed to walk towards his bed.

\"It will Draco. . .\" Hermione was able to mention his first name without a sour face.

Hermione stared at Draco\'s cold gray eyes as she bent forward, closer to Draco\'s face.

Draco stared back, only to catch himself mesmerized at Hermione\'s brown eyes. He was giving in into Hermione. . . a few more inches closer. . . then and inch. . . Their breaths exchanged with their eyes still gazing into each other. . .

WHAAACK!

Hermione punched Draco on his stomach.

Draco curled in utmost pain.

\"Asshole!\", Hermione yelled as she went back to her bed.

\"You just had to do that, didn\'t you?\", Draco voiced as he coughed hard in between his words.

\"You deserved it\"

Hermione lay back on the bed. She started to think at just what happened. She was awed at the spontaneity of her words and actions. If there was one thing in her mind the moment she did that, it was to get revenge for her near-death experience. . .

Then it daunted on her--- she was about to kiss Draco! Sure she didn\'t plan to do such thing but then she sort of wished she could lock her lips with his. . . wondering how it feels to kiss the most handsome student in Hogwarts. . . her enemy---Draco Malfoy.

This ended quite weak. My apologies. But in the middle of the chapter, try to figure out who was the one who rescued Hermione in Hogsmeade and who was the one who visited her to change the flowers situated beside her bed. Are they different persons or are they one and the same?

Read on to the next chapters to find out. Twists will be up even at an early chapter of 3 (which is next) and continues on to the last (which is the 20th )

Nonetheless, happy reading!. . . and oh! Please review too! Thanks!
