Pump, Pump, Pump It Up: Chapter Two: The C Bomb

They won. First place. And from the look on my sister's face as she ran towards us with a medal around her neck, she couldn't have been happier. "Hermione!" she exclaimed when she saw me and she threw her arms around me. "I didn't think that you were going to come."

"And miss being here for my sister? Of course I came," I said smiling as she let go. Our parents were somewhere in the crowds talking to the other parents, like always. Cassandra took this moment to finally notice Ginny.

"And who are you?" she asked.

"Oh, Cassy, this is Ginny, she's one of my greatest friends from school," I said, introducing them.

Ginny smiled and stuck out her hand. "It's so nice to meet you. I mean, Hermione never let on before that she had a sister, let alone one that could do stuff like that."

Cassy looked at me sceptically and I blushed. I knew what was coming. She was going to drop the C bomb.

"Oh really, well thank you for the complement, but I'm no more special than our Hermione here. Didn't she ever tell you? She was the one who got me interested in the sport. She's actually much better than me. It's only a pity that they don't have cheerleading in the wizarding world, that's the only reason that she's stopped being on the squad. She was the best of us all, isn't that right, Hermione?" Cas' said in a sugar sweet voice. I was so going to get her for this later. Ginny gave me a look that said 'and-you-didn't-tell-me-this-because-why?'.

"Now Cas', you always took to it much better that I did. I-I just had it as a fun little hobby," I said.

"What are you talking about? 'It's all or nothing, so bring it on' was practically your moto, remember?" she pushed and I wanted to strangle her right then and there.

"OK, so I might have been a little competitive, but hey, isn't that the point of most competitions, to be competitive, try your best, and have fun?"

Finally, at the looks we were giving each other, we couldn't help but burst out into giggles, something I only did around my sister, while Ginny looked on in amazement.

"Hermione Granger, I swear, you are so insane sometimes," she said, shaking her head.

"Sorry, Gin'," I said smiling, "mind if we start this all over again?" She rolled her eyes but nodded. "OK, Cassandra, Ginny. Ginny, Cassandra. Got it? Good." We must have been an insane looking group, my sister still half-buckled over in giggles as she tried to hold them in, me, looking as though I'd just gotten over some big brain puzzler, and Ginny, who wasn't the only one giving us odd looks. My parents came up behind Ginny and looked at the three of us. My father looked slightly puzzled but my mother was simply smiling.

"I see every thing's going well. Are you girls ready to get something to eat?" my mother asked, and despite giving her odd looks at the word 'well', we all nodded. "Good, then we should get going." and with that we left the Cheer Competition in favor of getting some dinner.

CHEER!CHEER!GO!GO!GO!CHEER!CHEER!GO!GO!GO!CHEER!CHEER!GO!GO!GO!CHEER!CHEER!GO!GO!GO!CHEER!CHEER!GO!GO!GO!

"Do you hate me?" I asked as I sat on Ginny's bed in the guest bedroom. She sat in front of the vanity, turned towards me. She sighed.

"No, I don't hate you. I mean, I am one of your best friends from school," she said with a smile and I grinned back. "Only, why didn't you tell any of us about this stuff?" I knew that the question was coming.

"I just thought that you, all of you, the school, the boys, and everyone, would think less of me for it. I mean, everybody in the muggle world tends to think of cheerleaders being brainless girls, dancers who have gone retarded, is what they say. I wanted to show that I was intelligent and not just some brainless bimbo, you know?" I explained, looking down at my feet, and Ginny's face softened.

"Oh Hermione, you know that we would never think that of you, not after all that you've done, all that you've shown, all that you are to us. You are my friend, and the boys, we would never think less of you for admitting to doing something that you obviously love," Ginny consoled, getting up and putting and arm around me. I smiled at her, hugging her back.

"Thanks Gin', and tomorrow, I promise, if you want, I'll show you just what I can do, no more secrets, OK, sound good?"

"Good."
