*Two and a half years later…*
Hermione was bored. She was currently leaning against the glossy white wall of one of the performance studios at The University of Continuing Wizarding Studies. It was times like these when she asked herself why she decided to continue schooling instead of going right into the workforce. But then she remembered that she really needed a time in her young adult life where she could be responsibility free and do whatever she wanted without consequence. In other words, she just needed a time to be a “kid”.
At this university she could do just that. They offered any graduate of Hogwarts a free ride, on the condition that they appear in class at least a couple times a semester. No homework needed to be handed in, no exams needed to be taken, just show up to class. This was basically a ploy to keep up attendance levels of non-Hogwarts graduate. Most people figured that if someone who had graduated from such a fine institution as Hogwarts, someone who could start a career at the age of eighteen, could continue their education at U-CoW (a terribly unfortunate nickname for the school), then that was the premier school for them to be. Well that and the fast that they would get to attend school with some famous young wizards.
Hermione’s mind wandered while Nina, the incredibly talented, dance choreographer prattled on about something completely insignificant, as was usual at the end of the lesson. She secretly thought that these little “cool down sessions” as Nina liked to call them, were really to have more time to have attention on her. Not that she needed it, most of the guys in the class already fantasized about her. Hermione could see Blaise Zabini on the other side of the room eyeing Nina openly. Sometimes, she could hardly believe that someone as perverted as him could now be one of her closest friends.
Next to Blaise sat Draco Malfoy. She quickly glanced at him and began to study her nails, not liking how she felt as her chest tightened. She didn’t understand him. Ever since they had graduated from Hogwarts he had barely said a word to her. He pretty much acted as if he had never met her before or he totally ignored her. She had no idea what she had done to him to make him act this way; they had become close in their final months at school. But when they had seen each other for the first time after arriving at U-CoW he had acted extremely cold to her. After that incident she never approached him again. Even after two years, she couldn’t get that sadness to go away every time she saw him, which was unfortunately a great deal. It makes it hard to avoid someone when he happens to be close with some of the people she is close to.
Hermione was suddenly, and gratefully, startled out of her thoughts by her roommate, and good friend, Cecile.
“Hermione, I know you have lovely nails and everything, but Nina has finally finished speaking and I would like to get out of here,” Cecile said impatiently.
“Sorry Cecee. My mind just started to wander, you know how it is,” Hermione replied while walking with her friend towards the door.
“Yeah, I do, but today she was actually telling us something useful.”
“Oh, really?” Hermione was immediately interested. “What was she saying?”
“Just about a month long dance project she’s giving up. She wants us to do it in pairs, something about bringing out different emotions through dance.”
“Sounds pretty interesting.”
“Yeah…” Cecile’s voice trailed off as she was distracted by Blaise and Draco waiting in the hallway for them.
“Hermione, Hermione, Hermione,” said Blaise as they neared to two boys. “I need to talk to you about something.” He pulled her away from Draco and Cecile, leaving the two to talk on their own.
“What’s wrong?” Hermione asked, getting concerned. Blaise sounded very serious, something that he didn’t do very often.
Blaise put both of his hands on her shoulders. “I was really upset that you didn’t come out with us last night.”
Hermione rolled her eyes. “And here I thought you were going to tell me something of importance.”
“Harry was there. He said that he misses you”
Hermione’s sighed. She hadn’t spoken with Harry properly in months. “And was Ron there too?”
Blaise’s face hardened. “Yes, the weasel was there as well, but don’t let him being around keep you from seeing Harry.”
She gave him a small smile. “I’ll try to catch up with him soon.”
He gave her a hug and a kiss on the top of her head. “He’ll be happy to know.”
“Hey Blaise! I’ll just meet you in the lunchroom.”
Blaise and Hermione turned to see Draco leaning against the wall impatiently. Cecile must have left to go do something.
“Just give me a minute, man,” Blaise replied. He turned to Hermione. “Come over to my apartment after you have dinner tonight, ok?”
Hermione glanced over at Draco now leaning against the wall down the hallway. “I don’t know…”
“Forget about Draco. It’ll just be the two of us. I figured we could watch a movie and just talk, ok?”
Hermione thought about it for a moment. As uneasy as she felt being anywhere near Draco, she couldn’t resist when Blaise gave her the sad puppy dog face. It was just one downside of having an extremely attractive best friend.
“I’ll be there after dinner.”
