Cover for me.

Sorry for the one’s that have already read this chapter yesterday. I\'ve deleted it because I missed a piece. Here is the full chapter.

I want to thank WriterLady1031 for beta the first five chapters of Dangerous Efforts.

Chapter 4: Cover for me.

“You’ll have to cover for me. I’m going to the Astronomy Tower tonight to use the Time-Turner.” Hermione said that afternoon in the back of the common room. Harry and Ron began to grin.

“Now we finally find out what happened aft—”

“What happened after what?” it was Ginny.

“Ginny, don’t you ever sneak up on us ever again, will you?” Ron snarled. He hesitated for a moment then grinned.

“We, accidentally of course, saw two people kissing and doing ‘stuff’ last night in the hallway near the Charms room. After curfew.” Ginny went red. It was she and Colin Creevy. They had been a couple for four weeks now, taking every chance they got to make out and now apparently, they had gone further than that.

“I have to go now—I’ll see you around.” Ginny said in a rush, running out of the tower, probably to find Colin.

“That was mean of you, Ron. Besides, how did you know they were there in the first place? You know you have to take House-points from every student who’s out of the Tower after nine? Or—” Ron’s ears went.
.

“I happened to be out myself last night. I had a date with Luna.” He grinned.

“So, did you figure out how far you have to go back in time, yet?” asked Harry with the same grin that Ron had on his face. He could only dream having dates with the love of his live, Dorah Brown from Ravenclaw. But, he didn’t know if she liked him too; that was the problem.

“Yes, I have to travel twenty-six years back; so that will be fourteen turns with the Time-Turner. And there is a little switch on it so that I can decide precisely.”

Later that day, while they were at dinner, Hermione noticed two eyes burning in her direction during the course of her meal.

“He’s still looking at you, Hermione.” Ron said, finally having been informed about the situation.

“I know. And it’s a bit alarming at this point. I’m about to go now, while everyone is still eating.” She whispered.

“Pretend you’re ill and en route to the Hospital Wing. It worked fine for me two years ago.” Harry said.

“If he follows you we’ll try to get his attention. But he can’t know about your plan, can he?” Hermione sighed.

“Not unless I talk in my sleep.” She said laughing.

“You do lately.” Hermione looked shocked. Lavender just turned her head Hermione’s way.

“I know you have those dreams, too. I, no we, heard you talking in your sleep.” She said, pointing to Parvati.

*Oh no, I fell asleep in his classroom last night!* she thought. *I could’ve said it in my sleep!* Hermione noticed that Lavender was already talking to Parvati again.

“I’m going now.” She whispered.

“Good luck with your OWL-test.” Harry said grinning and winked. Hermione stood up, nervous as hell. If this turned out wrong she was history. She pretended to be sick and ran for the doors. She opened them and shut them behind her, not paying attention as to who might be in the Entrance Hall.

“Going somewhere?” It was the cold and silky voice she would rather not have heard at the moment. Snape stood near the door, leaning against the wall.

“Miss Granger, what were you thinking last night, falling asleep in my classroom during your detention?” He talked in that familiar dark voice, making herver.ver. Now, Hermione really did feel sick!

“I-I’m sorry. I didn’t… It wasn’t my intention to fall asleep. I…” Snape raised his hand to shut her up.

“Are you aware that I risked my job by carrying you back to your room when there were other girls sleeping in there?” He sounded very angry, but she couldn’t really tell if he was.

“If Miss Patil or that other nitwit woke up and saw me while I had you in my arms… the consequences would have been drastic.” He narrowed his eyes, bent to to her head and whispered, “Don’t tell a soul about this, or I swear, you won’t pass your NEWT for Potions. Now, “ he said, bending his head even closer, “I’ve read your Polyjuice essay and as usual, it was outstanding. Therefore, I gave you an extra mark in the grade of an A+. Don’t get used to it because I’m not always this kind. I’ll give your essay to Madam Pince for the students to use for research purposes. Good evening.” And with that, he turned around suddenly then, headed for the dungeons, at least, that’s what Hermione thought. Hermione could finally breathe again.

*He doesn’t know*.
