With Harry giving her the silent treatment and Ron shunning her, Hermione tried to avoid the common room. The only person happy with that was Draco because that meant she was either in the library or in the Room of Requirement with her. While they both did have a ton of homework, prefect duties and his Quidditch practice, they still made time to research the Malfoy lineage hoping to find some clue to their theory. Draco was laying off taunting the boys in exchange for snogging and a lot of frottage and grinding, though he had convinced Hermione that this was a great way to just relieve some stress, it was still driving his teenage hormones nuts and more than once he had found himself taking a cold shower before going to bed.
