Chapter 1: Caught Up in the Middle
It has been three years since the Weasleys, Hermione and Harry left Hogwarts with its memories. Everyone has pursued their ambitions and has a life of their own.
The sun had risen but still a bushy haired girl lay still on the bed picturing what it would be like if Ron and she were together. She should have been having a good time with him and everyone would be happy for them yet something in her mind just holds her back. She was deep in thought when her alarm clock rang at 7:45 in the morn disrupting her thoughts and was now fully awake.
"Here it goes again, my boss is a nightmare", she murmured to herself as she walked on the cold floor to shower.
"Damn, Merlin knows I haven't done anything wrong. I made sure I placed the files properly on the top of his drawer and placed an anti-levitating charm on it. ", Hermione hissed as she apparated to work.
"Ms. Granger, as you have carelessly lost the very important files of reports of Muggle cases, you should as well have an overtime today to mend the disaster you have done in my office.", Mr. White explained loudly clearly letting the other workers hear.
"But, --", Hermione protested.
"No BUTS Ms. Granger. You have done enough complaints, now get back to work!" He said sternly as annoyed Hermione left his office cursing his boss. As she walked, she could sense her co-workers firing a glare at her wherever she glanced which send shivers along down her spine.
"I swear that I have prepared all those bloody files last Tuesday. Why am I so unlucky?" she said as she fought back from the tears ready to spill on her cheeks. In less than five minutes, she already sat in her chair thinking of a way to surpass the complaints and accusations of his boss.
"Now get back to work Hermione. Don't be carried away…" Hermione dictated herself as she went to work and work not noticing that the office had emptied.
"At last, I'm done", she said lazily as she felt her eyes doze off to slumber.
"Hermione! Hermione? Wake up" she heard a very familiar voice in her dream.
"Wake up!" Hermione rolled her eyes as she saw a pair of green, concerned eyes staring at her.
"You're finally awake." He said flatly.
"Harry? What brought you here?" Hermione asked looking puzzled.
"Do you not remember? Today is a BIG day!" Harry replied smiling.
"Huh?" Hermione asked still confused.
"Today is the opening of Fred and George's JOKE SHOP, so come on, hurry up and let's go!"
Hermione got her coat and purse then apparated to Diagon Alley
"Here we are," Harry said beaming at the entrance.
Hermione froze in amazement at the so called "Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes Joke Shop"in front of her while Harry examined her thoughts.
"It's like a dream, Harry. The last time was just those stubborn redheaded twins pulling out stupid pranks but now, they've managed to have their dream.", Hermione said dreamily. For a moment, Hermione thought of her work and she felt jealous but shifted away those thoughts. She was just too depressed from work.
Hermione and Harry eagerly went inside and found lots of cool stuff. They were trick wands, joke cauldrons, love potions filibuster fireworks with different effects and lots of silly edible candies and toffees, all arranged accordingly to its use and a big, glittering "WELCOME to Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes Joke Shop" was floating in mid air creating a warm atmosphere to kids and people of all ages.
Harry and Hermione made their way over the crowd to find their friends and the entire Weasley family.
"Erm… Harry, could you just go ahead…I feel like refreshing myself."
"Yeah…Okay…just meet me later upstairs." Harry replied as he waved and trailed off.
Hermione just stood there in a corner for such a long time. All she could think about was how he would answer Ron. Is she gonna say a Yes? Or a sad No? On top of that, she doesn't know what's inside her heart. Something just says it's not right… moreover, she is worried about her work but nevermind, HERMIONE GRANGER is never going to give up…at the thought of this she suddenly…
"I, MS. GRANGER, AM NEVER GOING TO GIVE UP IN THE NAME OF MERLIN!!" Hemione cheered herself loudly while dramatically raising her hand in the air.
In a split second, the music stopped and everyone laughed thinking maybe she's insane. Hermione felt herself reddened at the embarrassment and immediately recovered from shock as she put her hand down and excused herself from everyone.
"Its so embarrassing, I was so lost in thought." Hermione blushed madly at herself as she put her hands on her face.
"Hey", someone not so far called after her. She didn't mind it thinking it might be calling somebody else.
"Hey", someone said it again but this time, Hermione felt herself being carried lightly. She struggled only to find Fred lifting her smiling goofily.
"Put me down! Fred, this isn't funny!" Hermione said irritated but felt awkward seeing her carried by Fred like their newlyweds, Hermione bracing her arms around Fred's neck and Fred holding Hermione carefully around.
"Hermione, welcome to our JOKE SHOP this is a-- ooh, you're blushing madly… is it because I've become more handsome and charming?" Fred said jokingly not putting Hermione down. Hermione blush even more causing Fred to gaze at her intently. They remained in that position, only Merlin knows how long.
"There you are Fred and-- something down here is fishy…" His other twin, George came hopping into the scene seeing Hermione and Fred in a quite awkward position.
Hermione and Fred looked at each other then down realizing where they're caught at. Fred's cheeks reddened causing George to tease them even more. Realizing the situation, Fred quickly put Hermione down still blushing furiously.
"Since when did you have an interest in little bookworm Hermione?" George said grinning as he swatted Fred in the ribs.
"Erm…that's not-- what you think…erm… George", Fred said awkwardly as he saw Hermione nodded.
They glanced at each other and quickly looked away.
"Ok… Fred, if that's what you say, but don't come to me if you need help with your girl… now, let's go upstairs coz everyone's waiting for the two of you."
They both nodded and followed George.
"Now, I know why… it's because of…" Hermione whispered as she gazed at the blushing Fred going upstairs."
