If Ron learned how to use the telephone:
"Hello, Granger Dental Office, Dr Granger speaking.
"Yes, this is Harry, may I talk to Hermione?"
"Sure Harry, one moment please."
"Hello?"
"Herm? This is Ron."
"Oh, hi Ron; and no, I cant help you with Snape's home work, how will you ever learn?"
*Uncomfortable laughing* "No Herm, I wanted to, uh, know if you, uh, liked anyone?"
"Come on Ron, Harry and I are just friends, I'd never leave you like that. Why?"
"Huh? Oh, no, I wanted to ask if you'd go out with me"
"Um, o-kaayy what would you mean by go out?"
"You know- be boyfriend and girlfriend."
"Ron, really, I'm sorry, but I don't want to have any relationships until the OWLS and NEWTS are over with"
*Crying noises* "Oh, will you still talk to me? And stay friends?"
"Sure, look, Ron, I really have to finish this essay for Prof Flitwick."
"Wait"
Click.
I can't believe it, thought Hermione, I bet Harry dared him to do it.
"Herm!" called her father, "What did Harry say? you should invite him and Ron over sometime- every other year you're at the Burrow and I don't think Harry's house is a good place to meet." Harry?
Ron sat at his desk, disbelieving. He had taken muggle studies the summer before, and for what? So that Hermione could turn him down on account of the up coming tests? God what an idiot! He thought. At least I can still call Harry without turning red. The phone that Mr. Weasley installed rang, and Ron slowly picked it up, hoping it wasn't Hermione. It was.
"Ron?"
"Yeah? Want to rub it in? 'Cuz you are." How could he think that? she wondered.
"No. I wanted to show no hard feelings and invite you and Harry over. Maybe Ginny too if she wants."
"Oh. I'll ask mum.Oh no!"
"What? What happened?"
"Nothing,my dad just wanted to see me on the telephone(in the background)Here da, you can talk to Herm while I go ask mum some thing."
"HELLO , HERMIONE. IT'S A PLEASURE TO HEAR FROM YOU."
"Mr. Weasley, I want you to talk as if I'm right next to you."
"BUT YOU'RE ALL THE WAY IN LONDON; HOW WILL YOU HEAR ME?"
"Please?"
"All right, how's this?"
"Wonderful!"
"Really? Oh, here Ron."
"She said we can come an' stay for a week 'til school starts and that we can pick Harry up. You'll owl him,right?"
"Um , yeah. See ya friday then."(A/N-It's Wednesday)
Man, thought Ron, at least she still talks to me.
