Harry sat in the empty common room, staring at the dieing fire, and thinking of the days events. Ron and Hermione it seemed would never be friends again. Ron had kissed Lavender, Hermione had sent birds to attack him. Then biggest of all about 20 minutes ago Hermione had left Harry with a manic look on her face saying she had an idea. So here Harry was waiting for her to turn up.
"HARRY, HARRY!!" Hermione squeaked excitedly as she hurtled towards her friend "I found it!"
"Found it?" Harry asked bewildered. Hermione held up her hand as she stood there trying to catch her breath. In her hand was a tiny hourglass on a chain.
"Hermione is that…?" Harry asked almost disbelievingly
"My old time turner." gasped Hermione, Harry's eyes grew wide. He ushered Hermione into a chair.
"I asked McGonagall if there was any way to get one and she said she never gave mine back! Isn't it great??" Hermione's face was so hopeful Harry felt bad to ask the question that was going through his mind, 'why?'
"Erm 'Mione," Harry said cautiously "Why do you, or we, need a time turner?" he then recoiled at the look she gave him.
"We're going back in time to save our love life's!" She said as if Harry was missing the obvious.
"How exactly are we going to do that?" Harry asked almost regretting it eminently at the look of enthusiasm on her face.
"Okay, here's the plan." Hermione said pulling Harry down next to her. So there it happened that the two teens planed, maybe rather reluctantly on Harry's part, how to get their hearts desires.
The Plan was simple, Harry and Hermione would start back at the beginning of the day. There they would prod and poke with circumstances, starting with Ginny and Deans relationship. Then slowly, cautiously, move on to Ron and Lavenders. They would write notes, tell lies, and maybe spread a couple rumors. It was very complicated and would require and invisibility cloak, but Hermione was determined.
Harry had been looking Hermione over as she told him her exuberant plan, she didn't look the best for wear. Her hair was frizzing up more than usual, like it did when she was agitated, her eyes we red and swollen, because of all her crying, and her robes we dusty and wrinkled. Hermione was obviously hurting but this was a new tactic.
"Hermione," said Harry tentatively, she turned to look at him with a questioning look in her eyes. "Should we really go through all this trouble?"
"Harry, I need to do this." Hermione said, and she had such a look of hurt in her eyes that Harry felt he needed to do this just to help her, even if it didn't work.
"Okay 'Mione lets do this."
