As soon as they'd move from their cover in the shadows of the common room people began to whisper, some were congratulating them and some gave them curious looks. The continued to walk towards the couch without even acknowledging that fact that people were staring at them. When everyone realized that nothing interesting was going to happen they slowly turned their attention back to the voices of the wierd sisters coming from the record player in the corner. As more and more people began to dance, Hermione had the sudden urge to join in. she did not know where this urge was coming from. Maybe it was because of the fact that Ron had finally admitted the fact that he liked her or because he'd wanted to kiss her. She didn't know nor did she really care.
"Well, what do you want to do?" Ron asked.
"I wanna dance." She said excitedly.
"Dancing?" Ron groaned. "Why do you want to dance?"
"I don't know. I just do. Come on." Hermione tried to pull Ron off the couch, but he was reluctant and she was not strong enough to pull him onto his feet. "Ronald, get up and dance with me. You asked me what I wanted to do and I want to dance. Now, come one."
"I don't want to dance, but you can go ahead and dance. I'm fine with it." Ron said leaning back on the arm of the couch.
"As if I needed your permission." Hermione said angrily as she stormed off to the group of people dancing. The first person she ran into was Cormac. Her decision to not dance with him only lasted for a couple seconds, before she pressed her body against his and began to dance. If Ron didn't want to dance with her she would dance with someone who did and someone who would drive Ron crazy. Cormac was sure to drive Ron crazy.
Hermione had looked over to Ron to see if he was getting angry, but when she looked over to him she saw Lavender Brown, Romilda Vane, and some other sixth year that she couldn't remember their name. Of course! As soon as she'd left him he was flirting with a bunch of other girls. She should've known. She caught his eye just before she ran out of the room.
