This night, however, with Hallowe’en around the corner, Hermione was done before Malfoy was. Luna had come by to do the packing up and magicking back of the long tables while casting a knowing smile at Hermione. Stuffing down the pounding of her heart, Hermione silently slipped from the Great Hall to stand watch outside the main doors. If this was where Malfoy was appearing in the morning, perhaps this was also where he was disappearing from in the evening.
