Chapter 2: Phase 1

Ron's P.O.V

"Well, that was weird," I thought.

"Hey, what's this? Oh, it's just Hermione's textbook. I'll just hold onto it for her."

"Wait, there's a sticky note. I bet this is what her 'experiment' is about. I'll just take a peek…"

-Five minutes later-

"Why is she reading about magnets?" I think to myself.

"Now I'm really curious, and a little confused. What's her experiment?"

*****

Hermione's P.O.V

I run out to the Quidditch field; I see Harry. Phase 1 is about to take place.

"Harry!" I call him.

"What?" he yells back. "I'm kind of busy here!" He's holding tryouts for Chasers.

"I'll just wait here!" I reply, and I sit down on the bleachers.

After the trials, he walks over to me. "Yes, Hermione? What did you need?"

"Harry, I'm about to do something; it's for an experiment. And after I do it, I want you to be completely and totally honest with me. Okay?"

He looks nervous. "Um… ok-?"

And before he finishes his sentence, I pull him in for a kiss. It's not a long one, but it's long enough for Phase 1 to complete.

"Okay, Harry. Let me ask you something. Did you feel anything? I ask him nervously.

"W-was I s-supposed to?" he stutters.

"It worked," I thought.

"No, Harry. You weren't supposed to feel anything. Thanks, Harry. And we best not ever mention this to Ron, agreed?"

He nods his head so hard I thought he might shake it off. I step down from the bleachers, glad no one else had seen us. "Bring on Phase 2," I thought, smiling uncontrollably.

(A/N: Yes, I suppose it was still a little short, but remember, I'm new here. Aren't you supposed to make the new kids feel at home?? Lol, R&R and I'll sing you a heart-felt song!)
