Draco whimpered as Hermione held her wand to his throat.

“Hermione, no!” Ron called, standing behind him with Harry. “He’s not worth it.”

Draco, meanwhile, shut his eyes, still whimpering.

Finally, Hermione turned around, about to walk off.

Draco realized he was okay, and starting snickering and laughing.

Then Hermione swung around, punching him in the face, his head going back against the stone wall behind him as well.
