Chapter 1:
This could be the start of something new…
"Dammit!!!" yelled Neville Longbottom, as his potion hit the floor for the third time that lunch, "I can never brew and keep a potion without something going wrong. Never!"
Ron Weasley walked over and looked at the mess.
"Aw…hey, d'you want to get some Chinese food?" Ron asked, as the bell rang.
"Yeah…alright."
Ron pulled out a piece of parchment and his quill.
"What d'you want? 2 boxes of kung pao chicken?"
"That's good."
"And..uh..1 box of pot stickers and a box of fried rice."
Ron noted it all down, and then turned to Neville.
"Hmm…cash or charge? Aren't we just gonna grab it and threaten the delivery boy with death if he tells anyone?"
Neville nodded, and Ron wrote "CASH" at the bottom.
On the way to the owlery to send of the order, Ron had an urge to do something he'd never done before.
He wanted to sing. Ron looked at Neville and said, "Hey Neville…what was that potion you were brewing?"
Neville's eyes widened. "Singing Draught. Extra…strength…oh bugger…"
They both decided to do something about it after Chinese food.
Upon arriving at the owlery, Ron called down Pigwidgeon, and tied the note to his leg.
"Take this to General Tao's Chinese emporium in Hogsmeade West."
Pig chirped and flew away.
Ron and Neville made their way down to the Great Hall to wait for the order.
They took their usual seats between Harry and Hermione, with Ron next to Hermione. About halfway through the Chinese food, Ron's resistance to the urge gave in.
He jumped on the table and opened his mouth wide.
"Living in my own world
Didn't understand
That anything can happen
When you take a chance"
Hermione jumped up and joined him.
"I never believed in
What I couldn't see
I never opened my heart (oh)
To all the possibilities (oh) "
[Both:
I know
[Hermione:
That something has changed
[Both:
Never felt this way
[Hermione:
And right here tonight
This could be the start
Of something new
It feels so right
[Both:
To be here with you (oh)
And now looking in your eyes
[Hermione:
I feel in my heart
[Ron: Feel in my heart
[Both:
The start of something new
[Ron:
Oh, yeah,
Now who'd of ever thought that
[Both:
We'd both be here tonight (oh)
[Hermione (Ron):
Yeah, and the world looks so much brighter (brighter, brighter)
[Both:
Oh, with you by my side
I know that something has changed
Never felt this way
[Hermione:
I know it for real
[Both:
This could be the start
Of something new
It feels so right
To be here with you (oh)
And now looking in your eyes
I feel in my heart (feel it in my heart)
[Hermione:
The start of something new
[Ron:
I never knew that it could happen
Till it happened to me (whoaaaooh yeah)
[Both:
I didn't know it before
[Hermione
But now it's easy to
[Both
See (Ohh)
[Both:
It's the start of something new
It feels so right
To be here with you (oh)
[Both:
And now looking in your eyes (looking in your eyes)

Of something new
It feels so right
[Hermione:

[Both:

[Hermione (Ron):
I feel in my heart (feel in my heart)
[Hermione:
The start of something new
[Ron:
The start of something new
[Both:
Start of something new
They stood looking at each other for a few seconds before hopping off the table and sitting back down.
Neville opened his mouth to say something, couldn't think of anything to say, and shut it again.
Ron pointed his fork at him, "This is all your fault."
