The Two
Chapter 1
Questions
Harry lay on his bed, thinking. He didn't really know what was troubling him. He stood up and looked at the sleeping Ron. Totally unaware of what was going on. Harry could only get Ginny Weasley out of hi mind when Hermione invaded his thoughts. He didn't know what to do. He was in love with two girls and didn't know what to do. His mind went blank instantly, as if it was trying to cover up his thoughts, when he heard the tapping at the window. He looked towards the window and saw Hedwig, a letter tied around her leg. Harry ran to the window and opened it. As soon as she could, Hedwig flew inside, away from the bitter cold. Harry untied the letter and read:
"Dear Harry, I've been in that situation before, and unfortunately, I didn't know what to do then, and I don't know what to do now." Thanks a lot, Sirius! "I know you are thinking, "Thanks a lot, Sirius!" but just let me explain before you totally throw away my letter. Ask yourself these questions: When you see her, you feel like you can't speak or walk? Who does that apply too, Harry? Who do you think about more? I know you think about both of them, but I also know you can't think of both at the same time. Who do you feel you could spend the rest of your life with? I know you can answer both of them to this question but really think about this. Who can you not live without? Think about life without one of them. That's all I can do for you Harry. I got these questions out of Witch Weekly. Don't ask how I came across reading Witch Weekly. There was an article about finding your true love. These questions were part of the article. Answer them and see what happens. You never know what you may find out about. I know you haven't been sleeping, so try to get some sleep, ok? I'll see you at Christmas! Sirius.
Harry reread the questions and started thinking about the answers. Who makes him feel like he can't speak or walk? Well I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to answer that one. Who does he think about more often? Well, I think about both of them a great deal. I guess I'll wait and find some way to count that tomorrow. Who could he spend the rest of his life with? Well, I don't know! Harry stopped reading the questions because he was suddenly very tired, and he couldn't answer these questions now. Harry rolled up the letter and put it in his bedside table. With that done, he crawled into bed and was asleep in a few minutes.
Harry woke up the next day to Ron shaking him, yelling at him. Harry said, "Ron! What's wrong?" Ron didn't stop shaking him and yelled, "Nothing's wrong, Harry!"
"Then why are you screaming bloody hell?"
"I'm screaming for joy Harry! Joy! I have a "fever" and we have double potions today with the Slytherins!"
"Oh, ok, well, stop screaming. It's getting on my nerves. You're bound to burst an eardrum with that racket."
Ron stopped screaming but not jumping up and down. While the whole dormitory got up and got dressed, various Gryffindor's came to see why the Common Room was shaking. Harry and the other boys in the dormitory told them why Ron was jumping up and down. Even Professor McGonagall came to the 7th year's dormitory to stop the madness. Ron stopped jumping the minute she came in. Mcgonagall cried, "Ronald Weasly! Why are you jumping up and down like a mad man?"
"Because I don't feel good. I think I have a temperature."
"That's still not a good reason to jump and shake the whole tower! That's 5 points from Gryffindor. You will stay in bed Mr. Weasly. A house-elf will come up and check on you later. You will not leave this dormitory until I see to it that you are not ill!"
She turned and walked back down the stairs and left the Gryffindor common room, forgetting to check to see if Ron actually did have a fever. Harry and Ron were in their 7th year at Hogwarts, and already near the first month of term. Harry would've been just as happy as Ron if he had a fever. Professor Snape had been even more evil now that this was their last year. Harry was already dressed so he went down the stairs, remembering all those questions he was supposed to ask himself today. Hermione was waiting in the common room, looking very anxious. She looked so pretty this year. She straightened her hair some mornings with a Muggle Straightening Iron. Harry had touched it once and burned his finger. He didn't understand how it did Muggle's any good if it burned them. Hermione's curves had filled in and they looked amazing.
When Hermione spotted Harry she raced across the room crying, "Harry! What is going on up there? I felt the shaking all the way in the Head dormitory! What do you have up there? An elephant! Why was Professor McGonagall up there?" Harry stopped her before she could finish asking a long stream of questions. He said, "Hermione, it's ok. Ron was jumping up and down. Don't ask me how he got the whole tower to shake! Nothing's wrong with him." Seeing Hermione's relieved face, he kept going, "He has a "fever" and he's happy that he doesn't have classes today. Professor McGonagall was up there to find out what was going on. She took away 5 points and Ron's staying in bed all day." Hermione just gave a look that said, "Oh." As if on queue, the youngest Weasly, Ginny, came bounding down the Girl's dormitory steps, looking flushed.
Ginny was in her 6th year and also very pretty. Her red hair which used to look out of place, now looked beautiful to her small face and big green eyes. Ginny's curves also had filled in nicely. They both were gorgeous. He was going to have a hard time picking who he cared for more. Hermione was smart, pretty, and had plenty of logic. She knew how to take care of herself but sometimes needed protection. Ginny was pretty as well, and was well, a little on the wild side you might say. She knew how to take of herself, but didn't go off and get into fights everyday. Hermione was smarter, and Ginny was stronger.
Ginny was only in her 6th year, and in the at least top 5 in all of her classes. She always got good marks. Hermione was the top in the 7th grade year. She had been the top in all of her Hogwarts years. That's why she was picked to be Head Girl. The Head Girl system had changed a bit in the last few years. There was a Head Girl or Boy in each house. One of each wasn't really holding up too well. Hermione was the Head Girl of Gryffindor, but there wasn't a Head Boy. She had her own dormitory and everything. Draco Malfoy was picked as the Head Boy of Slytherin, Hannah Abbot was chosen for the Head Girl of Hufflepuff, and Terry Boot was the Head Boy of Ravenclaw. It was a little confusing, but everyone understood perfectly.
Ginny ran up to Harry and started asking a long stream of questions, like Hermione did. Harry answered, "Ginny! Calm down! Ron was the one shaking the tower. He was jumping. I haven't the slightest idea how he got the entire tower to shake, but it was him. He was jumping around because he has a fever and he gets to miss his classes today. He's ok, though." Ginny looked so relieved. Harry just wanted to pull her into his arms and never let go. He looked at Hermione who was looking quite disturbed. When Harry threw her a questioning look, she said, "He shouldn't miss classes! If he has enough energy to jump around all morning, he should have enough energy to go to his classes! And just think of all the notes he'll miss and all the lessons he'll have to catch up on!" Harry couldn't help laughing at Hermione. Ginny started laughing, too. Hermione said, "It's not funny, you two!" With that said she walked away, leaving Harry and Ginny still laughing hysterically.
When Harry finally stopped laughing he said to Ginny, "Well, you can't blame her. If she were sick she'd be screaming at herself. She'd try to make it to classes!" Ginny said in reply, "You're right, but it's still funny how she cares so much. But then again, she'd care if it was any of us." Harry looked at Ginny, right as Ginny looked at him. He stared into her eyes and found it hard to say anything in reply. She had beautiful eyes. They were light green, with a just a hint of brown. They were absolutely breath taking. He looked away and finally said, "I have to get my books. See you at breakfast!" He dashed up the stairs not daring to look back at Ginny, in case he fell over. He was out of breath when he came soaring into the dormitory. Ron just looked at him and said, "Harry? What are you doing back? The day can't possibly be over already! I've barely had relax time!" Harry said in between breaths, "Had to get my bag. Ran up the stairs." Ron still looked puzzled and said, "Oh, ok. Well, hurry up! You're going to be late and you have to take my notes!"
"Why do I have to take your notes?"
"So I know what to study!"
"But I don't even take notes. I'll ask Hermione. She's angry that you are missing lessons today."
"Well fine, have her take notes! Hers are bound to be better than yours will be."
"Hey! You don't take notes either so shut up!"
"Fine, but go! You have Snape first this morning, and you don't want to be late for him."
"I thought girls were the one's with the mood swings!"
"What are you talking about?"
"One minute ago you were disgustingly excited, and now you're disgustingly angry!"
"Well sorry for being sick!"
"Take a chill pill, Ron!"
"Sorry. Go, Harry! You're going to be late!"
"Ok, see you later."
Harry ran out the door with his bag and almost collided with Ginny at the bottom. She said, "I though we could walk to breakfast together. You know...if you want…" Harry replied "Sure. Okay." They walked to the portrait hole and climbed out. On the way to the Great Hall they talked about Ron. Harry filled her in on the conversation he had had with Ron in the dormitory. She had said, "Well that's just like him, yelling at someone when he's sick." They reached the Great Hall and navigated through the large mass of students to their table. Ginny sat down opposite Hermione at the Gryffindor table and Harry sat down next to Hermione. She still looked upset that Ron was missing classes all day. She cheered up a little when they reminded her that it was Friday and he would only miss one day's classes. Harry started eating his toast and bacon and felt right sitting next to Hermione. It felt good to be near her. He suddenly realized that he had stopped eating and was staring at Hermione eating her cereal. She looked up and said, "What are you looking at?" She smiled and Harry noticed she had a beautiful smile, perfect teeth. Her parents are dentists…Harry finally said, "Nothing, just thinking."
"Oh, ok. We'd better go. Potions starts in 5 minutes."
"Ok, let's go."
They got up, and Ginny followed them out. They walked towards the corridor that their Potions class was on and said good-bye to Ginny when they got to her Charms class. They got to the dungeons where the class was assembled. A few minutes later Professor Snape came out and they went into the class.
An hour and a half later, Hermione and Harry came out of the dungeon and headed to History of Magic. They walked along the hallway and talked about an upcoming test in History of Magic. Hermione said, "I think it will be pretty easy. It's just covering 1500-1600 B.C and the start of the Magical Empire." Harry was stunned and said, "What! A whole century and the start of the Magical Empire! That's a lot to study!" Hermione looked like this was going to be the easiest thing in the world! She said, "So? What's the problem with studying?" The conversation went on like this for a few more minutes but was interrupted by the bell.
They walked into the classroom and started to listen to Professor Binns drone on and on about the start of the Magical Empire. It was some movement that started the magical world. It was also very boring. Hermione spent the whole time scribbling notes for her and Ron. Harry would copy them later. He knew he should be listening but Harry found staring at Hermione much more entertaining. She looked so fantastic. A strand of her hair was in her eyes, which she kept blowing away but it kept falling back down. She was writing extremely fast, looking up every few moments to listen. Harry couldn't help but stare. The class went on, Hermione taking notes, Harry staring at Hermione, Professor Binns going on and on till the bell. Once it sounded, Harry had to look away fast because Hermione had finished taking notes. They got up and Harry and Hermione went out of the class, heading towards lunch.
They both ate fast and went back upstairs to see Ron before their last class, Defense Against the Dark Arts. Ron was sitting up in bed, and a house-elf was trying to get him to eat some soup. Ron was yelling at him, "I don't want soup! I have had 4 bowls! I am sick of soup! If I eat any more of this ruddy soup it will start to come out of my ears!" Hermione was yelling at Ron, "Ron! Don't yell at him! That's not nice!" She went over to the house-elf and put her hand on his back and said, "It's ok. Ron didn't mean it. He's just mad." The house-elf didn't even look sad. While Hermione was talking to the house-elf, Harry walked over to Ron.
"So, feeling any better, mate?"
"Yeah. How have classes been?"
"Long, and boring. I wish I was sick."
Hermione looked away from the little elf and said to Harry, "Harry don't say that! Otherwise you'd miss classes! Think of the notes and lessons you'll miss!" Harry said sarcastically, "Think of the homework and the lectures I'll miss!" Ron laughed, but Hermione looked agitated, so Harry said, "Look, I'm sorry Hermione. But I don't take notes anyway, and normally I don't listen to the lectures, I just copy them from you!" She looked a little happier.
They said good-bye to Ron and walked out of the room. They left Gryffindor Tower and started walking towards their next class. Then Ginny came running up to them in the hallway, and Harry noticed that she was looking radiant! She whispered something, out of breath and Harry said, "What was that, Gin?" She practically yelled, "I have the most spectacular news!"
