"Morning," Harry said to Hermione."Morning," Hermione mumbled back."D’you get your timetable?" Ron asked. Hermione nodded. She dared a glance at the Slytherin table and was relieved to see that Malfoy had left. Hermione let out a sigh of relief and faced the two boys across from her."Where are you timetables?" Hermione asked. Harry and Ron laid it out in front of her, and Hermione took out her timetable and put it next to theirs. Her eyes flicked from one page to the other, trying to find crossover. They only had Defence Against the Dark Arts and Care of Magical Creatures together, which is what Hermione predicted. But they also had History of Magic together which Hermione had not anticipated."Why did you drop potions again?" Hermione asked them both, handing their timetables back."Got Exceeds Expectations," Harry shrugged, grabbing some scrambled eggs."Same," Ron replied."You know Professor Slughorn is excepting students with Exceeds Expectations now," Hermione said. "You can still do Potions. It is a key subject if you want to be an Auror."Well, if Professor Snape was teaching it, I wouldn’t have even remotely thought about it. But I guess it’ll be worth it now. Where do Potions classes fall?" Harry asked."Fridays, after lunch," Hermione answered. Harry scanned his timetable and groaned."I guess I’ll have to do Potions, I have a free period then."Brilliant," Hermione said. "And you, Ron?"I have a free period too, but I don’t want to do Potions," Ron said, sternly. "I need to practice on Quidditch."You can do that on any other free period and on weekends," Hermione said."Oh, come on, Ron. Don’t let me do it alone," Harry said. Hermione scowled at Harry."I meant us, don’t make us do it alone," Harry swiftly corrected, though Hermione saw him widen his eyes at Ron in a pleading manner."Ugh, fine, I’ll do it," Ron said. "I suppose it would be useful."Good," Hermione smiled, and set down her tea. "I’m going to head back to the common room, I’ll see you both in Defence Against the Dark Arts."
