This story has my OC in it, Maddie. (AKA Madeline)

Anyway, it's a Ron/Hermione/Fred story. It takes place around 4th year, but they know Luna Lovegood.

R&R


Hermione walked down to the Great Hall for breakfast with Harry and Ron like she did every morning. Today, however, they endured many taunts and stony silences. "Honestly, " Hermione said, loud enough so only Harry and Ron heard. "Just because you're in the Triwizard Tournament, Harry"

Harry did not answer her. Ron was with them only because he couldn't find Fred and George. He wasn't speaking to Harry. He always got the glory, and if he put his name in the Goblet of Fire, why hadn't he told him how to, so he could enter aswell?
Hermione was relieved when they reached the Great Hall, she couldn't take much more of their stony silences. She sat down at the Gryffindor table, Harry sat next to her, Ron across from them. Not five minutes later, Fred and George came and sat next to Ron. "Ah, look at poor Maddie." George said, motioning to his girlfriend at the Ravenclaw table. The red haired girl had her down on a textbook, her hair a mess. She looked as if she was asleep. "At least the Ravenclaws aren't bothering her." Fred replied.
"That's because the Ravenclaws aren't rude like the Gryffindors." said Hermione.
"Ah, Granger, we're not rude. We have pride." Fred said.
Hermione scoffed and went back to her breakfast. As she went to pick up her fork, a ring on her finger glinted in the light.
"What's that?" Fred and Ron said in unison with accusatory voices. They were both looking at the ring as if it had insulted them. "A ring." Hermione replied cooly.
"From?" Ron pushed on.
Hermione was quiet for a few minutes, then said "Viktor"
This made Harry and George look up from their food. They knew very well this would not go over well with Fred or Ron. Luckily at that moment, Ginny came over to distract Harry from the outburst he knew was about to take place and George ran off to the Ravenclaw table with Maddie.
"What'd Vicky give you that for?!" Ron demanded.
"That's none of your business." Hermione said, anger flaring inside her.
"Yes it is!" Ron yelled.
Hermione ignored him, grabbed her bag and walked off. Fred was looking at the place where her hand had been with an ugly look on his face. Ron grumbled and went back to his breakfast, Fred left the Hall. "What's up with him?" Ginny asked Harry quietly, reffering to Fred as he stomped out the hall, scaring some first years.
"No idea." Harry replied. George felt it was safe to return to the Gryffindor table now and sat across from Harry and Ginny.
"Well?" he asked in a whisper, shooting a glance at Ron who was stabbing his food with such force they were surprised the table was still in one piece.
"We don't know anything." said Ginny. "I mean, we all know Ron likes Hermione, But I don't know what's up with Fred"
"He likes Hermione." said George conversationally.
Ginny stared at her brother as though he would drop dead any minute. "What?! Since when"
"I dunno, a while." said George, determined to look anywhere but Ginny and Harry. "He has been around us a lot lately." said Harry as he watched Ron stomp out of the Great Hall.
Maddie took that moment to appear. She had brushed her hair, but she still looked slightly sleepy. Harry had never seen George's girlfriend up close before. She was rather pretty, in the way Sirius was. She was carelessly pretty. She had red hair like Ginny but it had an oranger tint to it and it fell to her shoulders. Her eyes were the presicely same color blue as Ron's and she gave off the type of air that Luna Lovegood usually did. She also had a piercing stare like Dumbledore, when she turned to look at Harry, he almost drew back. Her eyes rested upon his scare for a minute and then to his face.
"You're Harry Potter." she said.
"I am." Harry said matter-of-factly.
"George told me about you. You're in tons of books"
Harry was reminded briefly of when he first met Hermione.
"Well, I have to go." she said, not waiting for Harrys answer.
"Where?" George looked bewildered, it was a Saturday.
"Library. I have a Charms test Monday." And with that, she left.

Later that day, George was in the common room with Harry, Ginny, and Hermione. Hermione had taken to ignoring all questions on her ring, and if the conversation about it persisted to long for her liking she'd take off for the library. She refused to tell anyone what the pretenses of the ring were.
"Hey George." Fred said, spotting his twin.
"What?" he replied.
"Whered Maddie"
George turned around. "Why?" Fred never showed any type of interest in holding a conversation with his girlfriend.
"I need to talk to her"
George looked slightly suspicious. "Shes in the library"
Fred took off before George finished his sentence.
"What was that about?" he asked, turning to Harry, Ginny, and Hermione. "And wheres Ron?"

Fred bolted into the library, scaring Madam Pince. The look on her face when Fred ran by her was mutinous. He found Maddie at a table by herself in the back. She was poring over a book and taking notes.
"Maddie." He said slightly breathless as he sat down across from her. "I need to talk to you"
"You are now." she said. He noticed she had a slightly dreamy voice like Luna Lovegood, but there was also a note of making her point final.
"Well, yhea, but, I mean. Nevermind. You're smart, right? I mean you're in Ravenclaw you must be smart"
She raised her eyebrow. "That's very sterotypical. Just because I'm in Ravenclaw doesn't mean I'm smart. Thats like me saying all Gryffindors are rude and obnoxious"
Fred looked taken aback, this was why he never talked to Maddie, or any Ravenclaw besides Luna Lovegood, for that matter.
"But you're smart right"
"Yes"
"Then you'll help me"
"That depends." she said sticking her quill behind her ear. "I need you to help me play a prank on Viktor Krum"
Maddie looked over to the other side of the library where Viktor Krum was standing. Finally, she turned back to Fred. "Is this a cruel joke?" she asked.
"No"
"Alright, I'll help"
"Don't let anyone know. Except George, he can know"
Maddie turned back to her work.
