A/N: Ok, this is my first try at fanfiction, so be nice! As long as I get about 5 (?) nice reviews, I'll write more. Hopefully, the next parts will be better. Also, they won't all be songfics, just this one probably. I actually don't like songfics myself, but I knew this song was pretty for R/H the moment I first heard it!

I, Hermione Granger, have given up on love. Hermione was feeling frusterated as she scribbled angrily in her journal. She had had a crush on Ron (not Harry!) since the moment she first saw him on the Hogwarts Express, four years ago.

Can you hear it in my voice?
Was it something I let slip?
Does the whole world know?
Isn't it obvious?

When she walked into the compartment Harry and Ron were occupying, she was too taken about aback by the sight of this adorable redhead that the first words to come out of her mouth were, Has anyone seen a toad? Neville's lost one...Hermione had been so excited when she, Ron, and Harry finally became friends. During the next three years, the trio enjoyed a fairly solid friendship -- until the Yule Ball that is.

I'm the one who's in control
Now I'm acting like a fool
Do my feelings show?
Isn't it obvious?

As soon as Hermione had found out about the dance, she had waited anxiously for someone -- preferably Ron -- to ask her. After several weeks, she was becoming worried. Surely if Ron couldn't pluck up the courage, Harry would go with her as a friend. Hermione had almost decided to ask one of them herself, while in the library one day when Victor Krum sauntered up to her.

That I don't know what I'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
Isn't it obvious?

She figured he was going to ask her for help with his Transfiguration homework again (it would be the third time this week). Instead he said, "Her-mo-ninny, vould you go to the ball vith me?" Hermione was so shocked she dropped the load of books she was carrying.

Do you see my hands, they tremble?
Wonder why I can't look you in the eyes
Don't know how long
I can keep this inside
Isn't it obvious?

A few minutes later, after they bumped heads more than once trying to pick up Hermione's books, she told him "Um, yes, that would be nice Victor. Thanks for asking me." Following the ball and her shouting match with Ron, Hermione began to think deeply about her "relationship" with Victor. Sure he was sweet and polite, but Ron was the guy she really wanted to be with.

That I don't know what I'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
Isn't it obvious?

It took her over a month during the summer to decide that she wouldn't go to Bulgaria to visit him (of course, Ron's weekly owls helped convince her). Hermione made up her mind that she would wait as long as it took until Ron Weasley finally came to his senses.

Suddenly these emotions are in control of my heart
Can you see it in my eyes?
Every glance, every smile must give me away
And I feel so much I can't hide

But then, an "Incident" occurred that would change everything...

And I don't know what I'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
Isn't it obvious?
