A/N: I Know this sounds odd, but I love both couplings of Draco/ Hermione and Ron/Hermione and I think this skit serves both purposes. I left the names out specifically so that you guys can make up your own minds about which coupling it is…
By the way…
Bold is for the narrative
Italics are for emphasis
And : is for stage directions… or human interaction
Hope you enjoy please R+R
A Skit
"Well, if it helps I like you…"
"Yeah I know but that's just it isn't it? You like me, everyone likes me, but no one's ever interested…"
"You know… when guys say they like you… they don't always mean in a friendly sort of way… sometimes they mean to say more but they can't, if not because of their own insecurities…"
"Are you trying to tell me something?"
"Maybe… I mean I know at least 15 guys who would throw themselves at you for looks alone and thirty more if they thought you'd help them with their homework :chuckle:"
"I meant you… A-are you interested?"
"Well you see now that depends… on you…"
"Wha-what do you mean?"
"Are you interested?"
"Well I-"
"If you're not then we can go on pretending that I haven't been in love with you from at least the age of 13… But maybe… maybe you'd give me at least a shot, then uh dunno… I honestly don't know… You're my rival and my friend… Am I right or wrong in that statement:sigh: I'm sorry I'm bringing this up now… I just need an answer even if it's not the one I want to hear… I need something, I went out with that girl in hopes of making you jealous and the reason I did that is because, well it's because I never wanted to believe that you were that intimate with him. I never wanted to picture you kissing him, because I always thought you'd wait for me, as slow as I am… And I know that was selfish and I'm sorry… So much has happened and I'm sorry that he dumped you… He's a slimy git, sorry again I know that's probably not helping. You don't need to look at me like that, it's my own fault."
" I… I don't know what to say… I always… I always thought that you, on some level I always thought you hated me… For being smart and for being a stick in the mud… I admit I'm not exactly girlfriend material…"
"How could you think I hated you?"
"Hello first year, no hang on first minute we met?"
"I was trying to hide it, you know my pre-pubescent crush on you… And by the way what is all this nonsense about you not being girlfriend material? I think you're perfect just the way you are. Look… :sigh: despite all the fights public and private, My idiotic pride, our friends, your priorities, All of my faults because I know there are a lot of them despite everything and everyone I think we might have shot… Unless you're not interested… By the way you haven't said if you were or not, you know interested..."
she smiled " I am… a lot more than you think you annoying git."
"I love the old nick names."
he smiled back
"Do you think we'll work?"
"As a matter of fact I think we will bookworm."
they both just stared at each other and then another walked in
"Excuse me you … Oh sorry I didn't to interrupt anything… it's just that uh, the other prefects are looking for you two…"
"Oh right thanks um…"
"Eric Cotler, oh… um… no problem see you!" Eric ran off
As the couple was heading to leave, the boy stopped the girl
"By the way don't think for a second that this conversation is over."
"I didn't expect it to be… git"
"Bookworm."
They both smiled as they walked to the prefects' lounge, hand in hand.
The end
