Author notes: Hey guys, I've decided to finally write a Romione story! I'm ecstatic about it and hopefully you are too! I apologize profoundly for all the spelling errors and grammar ones at that too! If anybody would like to help me out, I wouldn't mind! Okay so this is my first fanfic, and I have a soft spot for Romione even though they're not my otp I can't help myself but write something that makes me want to ship them even more! Hopefully you guys enjoy!
Very important Notes! MUST READ!
Also would like to inform you guys that Hermione is Head girl and Ron is a Prefect. Hermione is a pureblood and she's very proud of it she always listened to the pureblood propaganda and so she is destined to hate Muggles. I've decided to make the Weasley family Muggleborn and only Ron is in Hogwarts being the only one with magic! Harry's parents are still alive and have defeated Voldemort! So he never lived with the Dursleys! Harry is more OOC considering he never was with the Dursleys and had a happy home with his parents so he might seem more confident and playful in my story. The Granger family is one of the most powerful Pure Blood Families in the wizarding world and they believe everyone below them are scum. I will try to keep them the least ooc as possible! If you don't like it then don't read! If you have any questions, you can private message me oh and RATED M for a good reason ;)

Chapter 1: square one
Ron looked amusingly around the great hall, everyone seemed to be in a good mood and that got him even more excited for Tomorrows night Quiditch game against Slytherin. He eyed the Slytherin table, and turned back to listen to what Harry was saying.
"So I swoop down ready to catch the snitch when Cho comes in and attempts to catch the snitch!" Harry bellowed excitedly his hands moving wildly explaining what happened at the game last night.
Everyone in the Gryffindor table is huddled around Harry, ready to hear what he's going to say next.
"I Pretend to turn, so I can trick her, and she didn't realize I turned the other way so I can grab the snitch first"
"and then she notices me and tries to do the same, but because my fingers were already touching the snitch all I needed to do was grab it" Harry loved doing this,Ron thought, building up the story so everybody can pay more attention to him. Ron had no doubt Harry loved Attention.
She's on my tail now, and she's getting closer to the snitch" Harry says feigning horror, a girl gasp and puts a hand to her mouth. Ron rolls his eyes.
"And then just when I'm about to get it, I..." Harry's interrupted.
"WEASLEY!"
Ron Knows who that voice belongs to, so does Harry and apparently everybody else too, since their leaning trying to get a good glimpse, of the cause of ending Harrys story abruptly.
Hermione Granger is marching her way towards the Gryffindor table, with a nasty look on her face.
Her hair is wildly bouncing and her eyes look dangerous, the sneer she has on her face makes everybody pity Ron.
She reaches the Gryffindor table, and she halts looking at Harry, then her gaze stops at Ron.
"Granger" Ron say's not backing down from the dangerous witch.
"You stupid prat" Hermione growls
"Who do you think you are coming to the Gryffindor table and insulting Ron" Harry sneered right back at her
"Watch your mouth potter, or you'll get detention with Snape for a whole month" Hermione smiled wickedly turning her glare towards Harry
"I think you should watch your mouth, being head girl and all" Ron glared at Hermione.
Hermione gaze instantly fell to Ron's
"You filthy scum, I'm here because Pansy told me you came late to Patrols!" Hermione said in disgust.
"Don't call me that! And just by three minutes!" Ron told Hermione.
"Don't lie filth" Hermione declared
Ron's face turned many shades of red.
"I TOLD YOU TO STOP CALLING ME THAT!" Ron growled fiercely
"What, filth?" Hermione's eyes drifted halfway giving a look of innocence, she licked her lips, and Ron gaze fell on them. "Unlike you Weasley, I can't lie and well you are filth"
"YOU ignorant prejudice brat" Ron said, looking up from Hermione's lips a whole new anger possessed him, his hand went instantly to his pocket, pulling out his wand "I'm not one to hex girls Granger, but say something ridiculous like that again and I might just rethink that just for you" Ron was pissed beyond now, he looked at Hermione who looked unfrightened. She gave a wicked smile.
"Hexing head girl, are we?" she lulled in feigned disappointment, she ticked her tongue. "You do something to me Weasley and I'll make sure that Prefect badge" she said pointing at the object on Ron's sweater "is gone" she finished.
He hated her, absolutely hated her! She was a bitch! How dare she come and insult him, in front of the Gryffindor table, and not one teacher said anything to her! She was a know it all little prejudice brat!
She turned slightly as if leaving and last minute she threw her head back and gave Ron a sneer "don't be late next time" she said and walked out of the Great Hall.
Hermione Granger was not one to insult mudbloods even if she hated them, she usually ignored the filth in school, but if they crossed her way, well they most likely ended up with Madam Pomfrey. Hermione was a smart girl, everybody knew that, she was made head girl for a reason. Most people thought of her as a stuck up know it all bitch, and well maybe she was.
Ron glared at the flames on the fireplace, he was mad. No pissed. Yeah, pissed off at Hermione Granger. What she said, was only light compared to what slytherins say. So why was he so mad at her? He didn't completely understand.
'Well she did try and embarrass you in front of everybody' a nagging voice said in the back of his mind.
His life would be much easier if he was a pureblood or a half-blood at least. No. He should be proud of his muggleborn heritage. He was. He looked guiltily around the common room noticing nobody was there with him. He sighed, hearing the portrait open. Harry stood there his arm wrapped around Cho.
"You ok?" Harry asked.
"Yep, no need to worry, I'm used to it" Ron said with a small smile on his face.
"She had no right to tell you that, she's a prat" Harry insisted looking nastily at the carpet.
Cho looked uneasy as she stroked his hand Harry looked up and held her hand giving her a small smile. Cho blushed and looked at Ron, wishing he would leave so she can snog Harry thoroughly.
She smiled at Ron and gave a shake of her head. "Hermione always had everything she wanted, people would bend on their knees for her since she was a little girl, they would give her clothes, jewelry you name it, but she only wanted books, more and more, she loves to read" Cho smiled, looking down at the faces of Ron and Harry they looked confused, she swallowed and continued "the thing is she grew up with everything, things that had no value to Hermione, so she thought she deserved the best. Her family implanted this idea that muggles, even half-blood's were filth. To never associate with them, or touch them, that they were mu.. Mudbloods. See people aren't born with prejudice they learn it. Cho explained.
"So you're defending her?" Harry asked
"NO...of course not!" Cho said red in the face. "Im just trying to make you guys see her side too"
"She's a monster that's it" Ron said. Getting up from the floor he was sprawled on he dismissed himself saying he was tired. He laid in his bed. Knowing exactly what Harry and Cho were doing. He drifted off to sleep.
Hermione woke up extremely happy, for an unknown reason, something in her heart told her something good was going to happen today. She looked into the mirror and smiled her hair looked nicer since she started using Sleekeazy's Hair Potion since third year, when she realized her hair was a mass of curls looking more like a bush, and well' pureblood girls don't look so… bad', she thought. Gleaming at herself she smiled glancing at her perfect teeth, and nodding at herself in the mirror she approved the way she looked. She changed into her robes and pinned the head girl badge on herself.
Smiling she grabbed her book bag headeding to the great hall to get some toast and make her way to the library. On her way back up she almost was knocked down by a tall figure,unfortunately for her though, her books were now sprawled all over the floor now. She went to glower at whoever knocked her things down. She stopped right away noticing it was Malfoy. He was already picking up her things.
"Sorry about that, Hermione" he said handing her back her book bag.
"It's fine, how are you Draco"? Hermione blinked.
"Fine, haven't talked to you in the longest though." He said awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck.
Draco and Hermione used to be in a relationship, for who knows how long. It probably started when she was little, his family would come visit her, and they would end up in the garden trying to catch butterflies, he would say they were going to end up married, and well she didn't exactly disagree. He made it official he was interested in her and meant what he said before first year where he ended giving her a chaste kiss on the lips, and telling her she was his. Their relationship became official during third year. They would always hold hands, but nothing more, during fourth year he asked her to the Yule ball and when he saw her in the dress he claimed that he loved her and gave her a searing kiss. She was so happy that night. After fourth year they were never seen apart always holding hands or brushing against each other. Once during fifth year there were caught snogging in the broom cupboard by a prefect, in which she swore she would never do that, but Draco had ways of changing her mind. Sixth year came and she finally lost her virginity to Draco one night, it felt nice and warm, but she wasn't really happy. She refused to have sex with Draco any longer and that's when her relationship started falling apart, by the end of sixth year they were over. Draco found interest in Astoria Greengrass and well Hermione kept to her books.
"Right, we should catch up" Hermione grinned.
"Sure, whenever your available" Draco stated. An awkward silence arose and Hermione excused herself to head up to the library. Draco Replied, "typical Granger" and she smiled at Draco feeling happy.
Hermione entered the library feeling blissful, but it all ended at seeing Weasley at her table with stacks of books surrounding him, it was a odd thing to see, but then she realized he probably forgot to finish Snapes essay, which was handed out a week ago, it was due today, typical Weasley.
Heading his way, she inspected Weasley he had dark circles under his eyes probably didn't sleep well, she snorted and that got his attention.
"You're sitting in my table" Hermione stated looking at the boy with red hair.
"Since when did you make yourself owner of the table?" Ron snapped he had no patience today for the bullshit Granger was going to say.
"Since I bloody came here first year, my spot, everybody knows that except for you mudblood" Hermione glared.
Ron didn't say anything he hadn't had time for fucken Grangers insult plus he had finished his essay. He grabbed his stuff and pushed passed her.
"That's it you're not going to retort?" Hermione said Looking confused.
"That's it" Ron replied leaving, not looking back, he strolled through the hallway when he felt a tug at his hand. Feeling a warm sensation
He turned and notices Hermione looking well as shocked as him. Did Hermione Granger just touch him? This was bloody hilarious. Her face looks bloody Priceless. Her eyes were wide her ears were red and her mouth was in a small o. She scoffed and cleared her throat.
"Weasley, you should know that Pansy isn't going to be Patrolling with you tonight" she stated looking clearly fumbled.
"Great, then who am I going to patrol with?" he sighed, he hadn't got time for this, and he didn't want to talk to Granger.
"Me"
