A/N: So here I am once again. I hope you guys like the transition. Ok, so here it is: Everything is the same; it's just somewhat different plot. Here's the scene: Ginny just got home from Bath and is waiting for Hermione to get home and dish about everything that happened between her and Harry… Thanks to all once again!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.

Ginny was sitting down in the armchair facing the window. She was very happy with the results of her little rendezvous with Harry. She decided that the only thing she was missing was a glass of red wine. She took out her wand and beckoned a glass and a bottle from the hidden compartment in the icebox. She poured herself a glass of wine and snuggled up with the glass beside her. Perfect. She thought.

She slowly drifted off to sleep, dropping the glass and spilling the wine onto the floor.

An hour later Hermione arrived and cleaned up after Ginny, letting her sleep a little.

Soon after, Hermione decided to wake her up. "Ginny, wake up!"

"What? What is it?" Ginny said, startled. "What's the matter?"

"You falling asleep after a weekend of relaxing, that's what's the matter." Hermione said, sternly. She stat across her, dropping her attitude to a very giddy one. "Ginny, you are not going to believe what happed!"

"What? You finally laid Ron?" Ginny said, half sarcastically.

"Ginny, don't be crude!" Hermione said, blushing, "No, I did not. But I think we're together!"

"What?!"

"You sound like a broken record. Ginny you shouldn't spend so much time with Harry, you guys are really affecting each other's vocabulary, really!" Hermione joked.

"Ha. Ha. Ha." Ginny said dryly. Hermione told Ginny everything that had happened since she had left with Harry.

The more she told Ginny the more her mouth dropped, when she finally finished Ginny had only one thing to say, "I should have kept my mouth shut about my insecurities a couple more days that way I wouldn't have missed the performance."

"Ginny, it wasn't a 'performance'! It was real life and I'm kind of glad that's it's over between Lavender and Ron and just everything!" Hermione said, gratefully.

Just as Ginny was about to start telling her how her trip was with Harry, the door rang.

Hermione got up and answered. It was Mrs. Weasley.

"Mrs. Weasley!" Hermione was both happy and startled at this.

"Hello Dear. How are you?" The plump woman walked into the room. Ginny immediately got up.

"Mum, what are you doing here?" Ginny asked as her mother hugged and kissed her 'hello''.

"What? Can't a mother drop into her daughter's flat just to see how she's doing? And besides, you haven't dropped in to see me in over two weeks!" Mrs. Wesley said, sitting down.

Ginny rolled her eyes. "Mum I've been busy with the paper and everything. Plus, there's going to be tryouts for the Hollyhead Harpies next week, and I plan to try out."

She hadn't told anyone the last part. Hermione gaped at her, her mother looked at her worried.

"What? You're trying out for a Quidditch team? But that'll get you nowhere! Ginny think of your future. Besides, you are going to get married in seven months. Have you spoken to Harry about this?" Her tone became very stern.

Ginny didn't say anything. Hermione felt that she needed to leave. "I just remembered that I need to go to the market to get some groceries. I'll be back later!" She ran out the door.

As she walked out of her building, she ran into a work mate of hers.

"Hermione Granger?" He called out.

"Yes?" Hermione answered looking around to see who was calling her.

"It's me, Taylor Jennings." A tall blonde, with green eyes and a light complexion walked up to her.

"Ah, Mr. Jennings from-"

"Experimental Charms, yes. I did not know that you lived in this part of town." He said, looking around fondly.

"Yes, well I'm not the kind to announce my address at work." Hermione said, somewhat annoyed.

"No, apparently not." He chuckled at his own wit. Seeing that Hermione wasn't laughing he stopped, embarrassed. "You must find my calling you odd, as we have never spoken except for the common 'hello' and 'how do you do?'"

"Yes, indeed." Hermione although internally amused at this character remembered at although she had used groceries as a means of escape from the arguing Weasley women, she did need to get them.

"You see I don't know what came over me. I don't tend to be so random, I just saw you coming out of your building and thought 'Isn't that Ms. Hermione Granger from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures?' and then I realized that it was you!" He said, with a note of finality.

"Well, as charming as this little encounter has been I really must-"

"Hermione!" Someone else was calling her, this time it was Ron.

"Ron!" Hermione yelled, forgetting what she was saying and whom she was saying it to.

"Did you miss me?" Ron said, putting his hands around her waist.

"Yes I did. For the two hours that we haven't seen each other."

"Yes, and eternity in my books don't, wouldn't you agree?"

"Yes I would." Ron kissed her hello. Hermione remembered Jennings. "Oh I beg your pardon, Mr. Jennings. This is my boyfriend Ron Weasley."

"Don't worry about it Ms. Granger." Jennings said brightly. To Ron he said, "Hello, Mr. Weasley, I am Taylor Jennings from the Department of-"

"Experimental Charms." Ron said, suspiciously. "How do you know my girlfriend?"

"Ron!" Hermione exclaimed.

"No problem at all, Ms. Granger. If I had a girlfriend as beautiful and kind as you I would also ask every guy that would talk to her why he was talking to her." Jennings said, still smiling pleasantly and still looking at Ron.

Hermione blushed at his comment. "So just saying that, you would understand my query?" Ron said, tightening his grip around Hermione's back.

"If you must know Mr. Weasley I was just saying 'hello' to Ms. Granger, I hope you don't mind?"

"No I don't. Well, we must get going. Good bye Mr. Jennings." Ron motioned towards the apartment building, but Hermione stopped him. "Ron I was heading towards the market."

"I'll shop for groceries with you later, come on." Ron said, pissed off.

"You needn't be so curtly with Jennings. What did he ever do to you?"

"Hermione, Taylor Jennings has a reputation around us guys from the Ministry as a player." Ron said, going up the stairs.

"What?" Hermione asked, interested all of a sudden.

"You heard me. He sleeps with women for fun. He sees women as a 'one-time-use'."

"Sort of like a condom."

"What? What's a condom?" Ron said, stopping and looking at Hermione. She started to laugh. "What's so funny?"

"You are too cute!" Hermione said, surpassing Ron in the stairs.

"Wait, Hermione! What the hell is it?!"

A/N: So once again, what did you think?
