Summary: Hermione likes Ron, Ron likes Hermione!
I own no characters in this story ( JK Rowling owns so much...
It started in their first year. Harry and Ron could remember it vividly. Harry had figured how what he was, and met the Weasley family, who helped him get onto Platform 9 and ¾. Ron and he had been sitting in a carriage, when a girl with bushy brown hair and rather large teeth opened their carriage girl. Ron had been trying to turn Scabbers yellow.
"Oh are you doing magic? Let's see it, then." Ron said in a high, bossy voice, as he, Harry, and Hermione were walking in Hogsmeade during the winter. They were talking of how they met.
"Shut up Ron. I never said it that way."
"Yes you did, there's more."
"I remember," Harry interrupted, "Are you sure that's a real spell? Well it's not very good, is it? I've tried a few simple spells just for practice and it's all worked for me. Nobody in my family's magic at all, it was ever such a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased, of course, I mean, it's the very best school of witchcraft there is, I've heard – I've learned all our course books by heart, of course, I just hope it will be enough – I'm Hermione Granger, by the way, who are you?"
"Not very humble, were you?" Ron snickered.
"Oh shut up, I was in my first year! That was fiveyears ago."
"Right, remember when I told you my name?" Harry asked.
"Are you really? I know all about you, of course – I got a few extra books for background reading, and you're in Modern Magical History and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts and Great Wizarding Events of the Twentieth Century," Ron recited.
As Ron and Harry were busy snickering about Hermione's so called "humbleness", Hermione had bent down and made a snowball. She threw it forcefully at the back of Ron's head.
"Ouch!" Ron gasped, "What was that for?" He bent down and scooped some snow, which exploded in Hermione's brown hair. Harry laughed as the three of them began a snowball fight. Hermione had bewitched snowballs to hit Hermione. Harry and Ron were still throwing them manually.
"Oy! No fair! I forgot the spell!" Ron shouted as snowballs burst in his face one after another. "
You should have thought about that," Hermione yelled.
"I saved you from a troll!"
"Back in first year," Hermione replied smoothly.
"Yea, but still..." Ron protested. Hermione stopped the snowballs.
"That's when we became friends," Hermione said.
"Yea," Ron replied hazily. Harry looked at the two of them, who were staring at each other affectionately. "
Ugh," Harry groaned, "You are being disgusting!"
Hermione and Ron quickly snapped to attention and looked away from each other.
"What are you talking about mate?" Ron asked innocently.
"Yea, the way you guys stared at each other?"
"I didn't stare!"
"Neither did I!"
"Look, if you guys like each other just admit it!" Ron face became a deep shade of magenta, and consequently so did Hermione's.
"I – I don't like her! She's just my friend!"
"An-and I don't like him!"
Harry laughed, "It's been obvious since our first year."
"How?" Ron demanded. "Remember how mad you got when Malfoy called her a Mudblood?"
"I – I – well a mudblood is a serious offense, and Hermione is one of my friends!"
"And you were like all impressed when Hermione slapped him,"
"Well Hermione isn't the type who would slap someone!"
"You were jealous when Hermione said she was going to the Yule Ball with someone."
"I wasn't jealous! I was just... curious!"
"You couldn't stop staring at her at the Yule Ball when she was with Krum..." A snowball suddenly exploded in Harry's face.
"I. Don't. Like. Her!" he yelled.
Hermione was turning red meanwhile.
"And Hermione, remember when that Fleur Delacour girl gave Ron a kiss? You looked like you were going to kill her!"
"No I wasn't! I – I just thought it wasn't right about that girl just kissing him!"
"And why?" Hermione turned redder and Ron was turning to a beet. "Let's just go and get some... butterbeer, ok?" Ron suggested quickly. Harry snickered, but agreed, and the three set off for the Three Broomsticks.
Note: Ok, I removed the 2nd chapter, it sounded a little demented after I read it over again (I'm sorry, I wrote it when I was really really tired, my brain wasn't functioning as well, I can do much better than that!) :) Thanks to all 8 reviewers, one of which is my own username, but see, me and my best friend share this account, so that was her. I am currently redoing it after the constructive criticism from Wolverine is Hott. Please REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW – I always look for better ways to improve!
Note: Now, 3 years later, I've totally changed. I was readnig this. It is soooooooooooooo messed up. But a lotta people likes it, so I'll leave it, and I'm too lazy to rewrite it. After I finish Into the Spirit World, I will be working on the sequel, 'We're Not a Couple'.
