Chapter 10: My heart will go on... or will it?

November rolled by like day and night, as did the 5th year mock OWLs assessments.

The 5th year students filed into the Great Hall where the exams were to take place.

"Good luck." Cedric told hermione and kissed her forehead.

She smiled and was pulled into the Great Hall by Harry.

The students took their places by their test papers and parchments. Unfortunately for Hermione, she was seated beside Draco Malfoy.

"Who knew a piece of Hippogriff dung worthy of a Mudblood could get a boyfriend? Diggory doesn't love you, Granger. He'll leave you because you're filth, dirt, a nobody." he sneered, but one word she hated to hear was "And you're also unwanted. Everyone hates you."

She had heard that word so many times before, but not from her parents, but from random strangers or her ex- best friends. She however ignored him.

But Draco's words still echoed in her mind."Diggory doesn't love you. He'll leave you. Dirt. Filth. A nobody. Unwanted." But one word repeated itself over and over again ... "Unwanted."

She finished the exam forty-five minutes into the exam and pent the last hour and fifteen minutes. So she spent the final hour checking, re-checking and going over answers she may have missed or didn't seem right. Draco's words still echoing through her head.

The exam finally drew to an end. The students began file out of the Great Hall. As Cedric had promised, he waited for Hermione by the lake, where they spent most of their time with each other if they weren't studying or with friends.
