Hermione ran down through the portrait of the fat lady, her bushy hair was wild, her cheeks where an angry red with anger and humiliation, her fists were clenched and her nails where digging into the palm of her sweaty hand.

"HARRY SAID NO! HARRY SAID NO!" she screamed as she rushed into the girls dorm, flopping down onto her unmade bed, tears rolling down her cheeks. Ginny came rushing in after her. "What's up with you?" she asked coolly, her straight, glossy, fiery red hair was halfway down her back, like a long, red waterfall. "Harry said no!" Hermione sniffed, her brown eyes meeting Ginny's, she turned away. "Oh Hermione, I'm so sorry" Ginny tried to calm Hermione down but failing miserably. "I want to be alone" Hermione looked back up into Ginny's eyes "Ok, but are you sure your going to be alright?" Ginny asked, "I'm going to be fine, my humiliation is still a bit raw that's all." Ginny walked slowly out of the dorm, shaking her pretty face and making small waves appear in her hair. Hermione watched her close the door behind her before sitting up and rummaging inside her case. "It has to be here somewhere" she muttered before taking out a huge, heavy book that had it's title written in posh, golden letters, "Love and Romance" it read. Hermione flicked through each of the scruffy pages, occasionally pausing to make sure that no one was coming into the dorm. She eventually stopped at a page that was most noticeable because of the many folds in the page from when Hermione's great, great grandmother used to read the book, which had been passed down from generation to generation. At the top of the page was a silver coloured title that read, "Is he the one for you?" Hermione jumped with excitement, this page could probably tell her which boys in Hogwarts she could ever be attracted to. "I might actually be surprised," she muttered. She began to read the page, paragraph- by-paragraph, word-by-word; she especially read the fourth paragraph extra carefully, "Sometimes, surprises may happen. The boy that is right for you might well be somebody that you don't even know yet or it might even be some one that you absolutely despise." Hermione chuckled, she knew who she absolutely despised; Draco Malfoy. She thought about Draco and herself being an Item, "One strange couple that would be!" she giggled. She paused again to look up, Ginny was stood in the doorway, "I see that your feeling better," she said "Yeah, I guess so" "Come on out, Harry wants to speak to you" "Harry?" "Yeah, I think that he wants to apologise for hurting your feelings before, he says that him and Lavender are an Item though." Hermione sighed, it was true that her feelings where hurt but she decided to go down and talk to Harry anyway. Hermione was trembling when she came out of the dorm, she felt hot and sweaty and her teeth where clenched, trying to hold back the tears of a broken heart. She remembered that she had always had a little crush on Harry, right from the very beginning of her first year at Hogwarts when she first saw him on the Hogwarts express. In the fifth year; the year that she had finally plucked up the courage to ask him out, he was going out with the well known tart; Lavender Brown. She was looking down at the stairs when she was scuffing her way down them; Harry was sat down next to Ron, they where talking in low, muffled voices. "Ok I'm here," Hermione trembled trying to sound cool and not bothered about what had happened about half an hour before. "Err.hi" Harry was also trembling, his glasses where all steamed up and his hair was all out of place, even more then it was before. "I've been thinking," He began "about before, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Hermione but Lavender and I are together" Ron raised his eyebrows and took a huge sigh "You can go out with me instead" he said. "Hermione was shocked and upset, had Ron just said what she thought he had just said? She wouldn't go out with Ron in a million years! She wasn't that desperate for a boyfriend! Did they not see that she was being serious about Harry and her being an Item? "God!" She thought "They don't think that I care who I go out with!" she stomped up the stairs and into the girls dorm again, Ginny rushed up beside her "Aren't you going to say yes to Ron?" "NO!" Hermione shouted "I'M NEVER SPEAKING TO HIM OR HARRY EVER AGAIN!" She ran into the dorm, slamming the door behind her.
