Hello everyone who is reading this fan-fiction. I really hope you enjoy this fan-fiction. It is my first Harry Potter fan-fiction so I don't expect it to be that good.

Please read and review please!

This story is dedicated to my friend Lauren (colourofmagic).

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, the best book series EVER!

This story takes place during Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Ron is already going out with Lavender and Hermione is deciding who she is going to ask to Slughorn's Christmas party. Cormac McLaggen or Zacharias Smith?

Who would annoy Ron the most? Who should I take to the party to make Ron the most jealous?

My first thought is Draco Malfoy, but I would never go out with him and frankly he would never say yes. Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger? Yeah, not going to happen.

I could ask Harry but maybe that's not such a good idea, especially since he has a major crush on Ginny. I'm a girl, we notice things.

Who really annoys Ron? Who would make him really jealous? Who would make him dump Lavender?

Cormac McLaggen? He tried out for Gryffindor keeper and the only reason he didn't get in was because I confunded him. He is one of Slughorn's favourites and Ron certainly did seem angry when he suggested that I should 'hit it off' with him so Slughorn could make us 'king and queen slug'. Yeah maybe.

Zacharias Smith? He was in the DA last year and at first he didn't believe Harry. He also wasn't a very nice person. Ron went on and on about wanting to jinx him. Also Zacharias Smith bugged his little sister so much that she jinxed him. That brought out the older brotherly feelings in him.

One of the two would be a good idea. Yeah, one of those would annoy Ron the most. Which one to choose? I'd have to ask someone. Where was Harry?

I came down from my dormitory and looked to see if Harry was in the common room. He wasn't. He was probably in his dormitory reading his stupid potions book. That book was going to cause him some serious trouble one of these days.

"Hey Hermione!" I turned around and saw Ginny sitting by the fire. I walked over to her and sat down on one of the armchairs next to her.

"Hi Ginny. Going to Slughorn's party?" I asked.

"Yeah. Me and Dean are going." She sounded kind of disappointed. If only she knew that Harry liked her. "Are you going?"

"Maybe, if I can find a date." I told her.

"What about my dear brother?" Ginny asked. I blushed beetroot red.

"Um. He goes out with Lavender Brown." I told her.

"Yeah I know. I just wanted to see your reaction. So you like him huh?" She said. It wasn't really a question. It was more of a statement.

"Um...well..." I stammered.

"I'll take that as a yes." She guessed.

"I suppose." I admitted.

"So since your desired choice is unavailable, who are you thinking of asking?" she asked.

"Well who do you think would annoy Ron the most?" I asked her in return.

"Well apart from Malfoy. Harry?" she said.

"Um well I am pretty sure he likes someone else." I told her.

"Well then it will make her jealous and it'll be a win win." She explained.

"Yeah, you don't really understand. It is kind of different. It won't work." I told her, "I was thinking McLaggen or Smith."

"I hate them both!" Ginny said angrily.

"I don't like them much either." I admitted. "But I thought they would annoy Ron."

"Right you are! Which one are you going to ask?" she said.

"I don't know. Which would annoy Ron the most?" I asked. I was desperate for her knowledge, she knew him very well. Probably more than Harry. I don't know what I was thinking looking for Harry when I should have been looking for Ginny.

"Well I think they would equally annoy him but I would go with Smith because Ron hasn't known McLaggen for that long and the only things that have gone down between them are the keeper tryouts and he is one of Slughorn's favourites. Whereas Smith was in the DA with us and was an all around jerk-face." She told me.

"Cool thanks Ginny. If he says no I will just ask McLaggen. I suppose that is the advantages of having to chose between two people. Anyway, how are things going with Dean?" I turned the attention on her so she wouldn't ask any more questions on Ron. Truth is I do like Ron, I'm not sure why because he is goofy, silly and a bit stupid. But he is also sweet, funny, loyal and a whole bunch of other things. I think I started noticing it at the start of the year but it was more of a small feeling rather than a big one. Then we he started going out with Lavender everything went into hyper drive and I kept feeling all these different feelings.

It's true. I'm in love with my best friend. My goofy, funny, loyal best friend.

Author's note: I hope you enjoyed it. This is the first chapter. I will be uploading more and I really hope everyone keeps reading them.

Please review! Thanks.
