Hermione drabble for Celandine

[thrihyrne]

My dear Cel, this is for you. 'Tis belated, but no less heartfelt.

Title: On Time
Drabble: 100 words, exactly (if I can count)
For celandineb who asked for a Hermione story.
Spoilers: Prisoner of Azkaban


Arithmancy.

Ancient Runes.

Hermione’s head spun as quickly as the golden time-turner covertly clutched in her hand. She stopped suddenly while throngs of other students hurtled around her, a solitary buoy in a sea of robe-billowing black.

Where am I supposed to be? she asked herself, panic attempting to seep in before she batted it away.

Look it up.

She thrust a hand into her satchel, grabbing at her calendar.

Tuesday.

One o’clock.

Hermione inhaled deeply, reassured at the answer.

Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Her shoulders slumped, a rare submission to fatigue.

Maybe it was too much.

Well, I will be around, sort of, but I'm not sure how much online time I will have. My mother and I will be watching the theatrical release of RotK tonight, and then the EE of it on Saturday... and tomorrow will be spent mostly baking. Yum.

Have fun watching, writing, reading, sleeping with cats!
