Hermione's POV

"Hermione!" I heard Ron yell. I picked up my face from my Potions book and yelled back, "What Ron?" Then I heard running footsteps going down the stairs from the corridor and he said, "What are the chapters that we have to study tomorrow for the Potions test tomorrow?" I let out a big sigh and said, "Chapter 12, 13, and 14." He grew a smile on his face and then said, "Thanks!" Then he went back up the stairs.

That was the first time Ron talked to me today. It was now when school was over and every 6th year in Gryffindor was in the Common Room studying or not caring and going off and about around the castle. Ever since he and Lavender started dating, he's been avoiding me ever since. Like we usually sit together at breakfast, but then he always strolls in arm in arm with Lavender. Obviously everyone knows that I like him, but I guess he forgot. Well he is my best friend, but why Lavender? She's just an annoying girl, and she's been on his lips ever since we got back from class. I want to talk to him, but he's never "free." I'm going to talk to Harry about this.

I knocked on the boy's corridor and asked for Harry. He opened the door and I saw Ron on his bed talking to Shemus. Obviously they have to be talking about Lavender. Harry came out and said, "What's up?" With a hard tug on his arm, I said, "We need to talk privately." We took a walk to one of the stair cases right by the Courtyard and we sat. Harry then looked up to me and said, "What's the matter? You look so gloomy today." I brought my head back toward him from the window and I said, "You obviously know why I'm gloomy Harry." He then adjusted his position from the floor next to me and said, "It's Ron and Lavender huh?" Then I looked straight and said, "Well obviously it's yes. I just can't stand looking at them. It's like Ron doesn't even know that I exist anymore." Harry then looked where I was looking and said, 'Well he asked you for those chapters for Potions." Then angrily I stood up and said, "Yes I know! It's because when he needs "help" with school, he always talks to me." All of a sudden while talking I broke into a sob. "But why doesn't he talk to me? I'm his best friend and he doesn't even look at him! I've been feeling depressed so much from this I can't even focus on school because I'm too busy thinking about him!" After my sob, I sat down on the floor right next to the window with my face buried in my knees. Then I felt a hand touch my back, which obviously was Harry, and I looked up. He then said, "Well then I'll talk to him tonight about this. Now don't feel bad about yourself. He will and always notices you because he cares about you. Okay?" I looked at him and said, "Thanks Harry." I got up and gave him a big hug.

We walked back to the Gryffindor Common Room and some kids stared at me because I had red eyes from crying. As we got in, I saw Ron come down the stairs and he looked at Lavender. But when he saw Harry and me he stopped. I then turned to Harry and I gave him "go talk to him" look and he nodded. After that I rushed to the stairs, and Ron put his hand on my shoulder. With a worried face he said, "Are you okay?" I yanked off his hand and ran back up the stairs preparing to start crying.
