Chapter 49: disappointed Hermione
"Hum…in…information…"
She said with fluttering words. Jack smiled inside but did not show that out and said to Hermione.
"The information has received the price I wanted so I will tell you. Nicolas Flamel is an alchemist. He is famous for creating the philosopher's stone. This is most probably the thing Harry and Ron are rocking their heads about.
As for my case, I got him as a teacher because he liked my talent. He gave me a book related to his research fundamentals to study and understand. That is all." Jack said everything into the ear of Hermione while blowing the wind into her ear making her more and more excited.
Her face is all red because of the air that Jack blew into her ear. She felt tingly all over. She liked the feeling she is getting. But she snapped back again from the feeling when Jack stopped talking.
She was so much embarrassed that she directly ran away from him going out of the room of requirements and went straight to the Gryffindor common room. Fortunately the fat lady returned at that time after her night rounds.
She is having a beauty sleep right now. Hermione disturbed her and took few moments to remember the password to enter into the common room. The fat lady was annoyed but Hermione is not in a state to think about that.
Her face is hot and she was embarrassed. Well what can anyone say, she is a girl that hit the puberty and it is the time for first love to come. She thought that Harry and Ron would be out waiting for her.
Unexpectedly there is no one in the common room instead they went to sleep. She was severely disappointed with Harry and Ron but since they are friends she let that go. She went to sleep.
But she was unable to sleep as when she closed her eyes, the scene of her sitting on the lap of Jack and kissing him appeared in her mind more and more. She was having a hard time thinking of all that.
She did not sleep all night because of the wild fantasies in her mind. Her eyes were red early in the morning next day. The Quidditch time has started. It is February 20th and in 2 days there is a Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.
That is why the people in the Gryffindor room are a little hyped. Even though they lost to Slytherin they are sure that they can win against Hufflepuff. Hermione went to speak with Harry and Ron.
But they are not in the mood to learn about that. They are more interested in knowing about the situation of Quidditch. Hermione with her red swollen eyes from lack of sleep stomped her feet and left with anger.
For this match, Snape is not the referee. Well Harry is not participating. So there is no need for him to do anything out of order in this situation. Things went on normally without much hitch till the end.
After 2 days the match was over and Harry and Ron got back to Hermione to know about Nicolas Flamel. During the match, Ron and Neville got into a fight with Draco and Neville got some good beating enough to land him in the hospital wing.
Fortunately with a narrow margin the Gryffindor won against Hufflepuff. Hermione bit her lower lip thinking that she has sacrificed her first kiss to Jack for this information, but she did not receive any appreciation from neither Harry nor Ron.
She did not tell them about the price but only told them about the information of Nicolas. Immediately Neville on the side covered in bandages showed the cards in his hand that he got from chocolate frog packs.
Hermione was dazed to find that Nicolas Flamel can be found so easily. She felt that she was cheated off her first kiss by Jack. But she calmed down as she cannot show this in front of Harry and Ron.
Right then Jack appeared with a smile and grinned towards Hermione. She glared at him for a moment but her cheeks turned red when Jack licked his lips. Also she heard others mentioning that her big front teeth are changed.
She also checked it and felt that she looked more beautiful and cute without them. She was sure that she did not change them and no one did anything to her. But the only person that came into close contact with her is Jack.
She was sure that it was him that actually changed her big front teeth using some magic she did not know. She felt that even though he cheated her, he made her look beautiful. With that her heart calmed down feeling that she got something good for the price she paid.
.......
Knowing this Harry along with Ron and Hermione moved out of this place and wanted to meet with Hagrid to speak. But they discovered that Snape is going towards the forbidden forest. So they followed him sneakily.
They got the invisibility cloak with them as Harry brought this to make things more on the safe side. Snape met Quirrell and they speak of the Philosopher's Stone in the deep forest as if they are the only ones present here.
Harry thinks that Snape is trying to force Quirrell to help him get the Philosopher's stone so he can get rich; to the alarm of both Ron and Hermione who fear Quirrell will succumb to Snape's threats.
With that the trio got the information they quickly left there to meet with Hagrid. Jack on the other hand is also following them in invisibility cloak because there is something important he wanted to do with the information.
To be more precise he can get more kisses from Hermione while planning some future traps for Harry and Ron. They went into the hut of Hagrid while Jack stood by the side at the window with invisibility cloak.
