Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter!

A/N: Hey guys I'm back with chapter 2(it's longer than the first chapter!) Thank you so much to my beta reader ISEELIGHTSEVERYWHERE! :D No mean reviews please!

Hermione couldn't let her red-headed best friend run off for the second time. She ran after him and tugged on his arm. Hermione wailed, "Where do you plan on going this time?"

"I don't know yet," he retorted, "but it's clear to me that you two are much happier without me."

"That's not true!" She insisted. Ron stared deep into her chocolate eyes. He was baffled and frustrated.

"And how do I know you're not lying?" He questioned. Hermione began to get irritated. How could Ron not believe her? Hermione loved him and she's absolutely sure that he loved her back. Hermione grabbed his knapsack and started to smack him with it.

"Of course I'm not," she snapped, "do you assume that I would lie to you?"

"Well I don't know," he shouted, "I don't even know you anymore!"

"I'm not lying I swear," she stammered, "Please stay." Hermione embraced him, trying to make him realize that she wanted him to stay. Ron's anger slowly began to disappear as he held her in his arms.

"I can never stay mad at you," he acknowledged, "I can't even last a day without you." As he let go of her, they walked back to the tent. Harry was waiting inside for them.

"I'm glad you decided to stay Ron." Harry nodded as he patted his friend's shoulder. Ron had a suspicious look in his eye.

"Are you sure you're alright mate?" he asked. "You seem sad that I decided to come back."

"Oh no I'm very happy that you decided to stay with us." He reassured. But, the truth was he wasn't fine. When Ron was gone, Hermione spent a lot more time with him then she usually did. But with Ron back, they'll just run back to each other.

"Okay, if you insist." He said distrustfully. He didn't believe Harry, not for a moment. He knew that he wasn't telling him the truth. Harry just remained completely silent. Ron sighed as he made his way to his cot. He got underneath the blankets and lied down. Hermione sat down with him next to his legs. She held onto his hand as he just lied there, staring at her.

"What are you looking at?" she smirked. Ron's mouth hung down as if it was about to touch the ground of the tent.

"Um, nothing…" he said, clearly embarrassed. Hermione quietly giggled to herself.

"It didn't seem like nothing to me!" She joked. Ron was too humiliated to reply his highly intelligent girlfriend. 'Wait a second…Girlfriend? Are we even dating? Well as long as she's not smacking me with my knapsack.' Before they knew it, he fell asleep with his hand in hers. Harry was on the other end of the tent, wondering where the other Horcruxes would be located.

"He looks peaceful." He said trying to break the awkward silence.

"He looks rather cute." She admired, smiling down at her close friend.

Harry grimaced to himself as jealousy struck him hard.

xXx

Harry woke up to crashing waves on the beach. He sauntered over to the opening of the tent, gazing over to search for the source of the noise. He caught a glimpse of Hermione and Ron smiling and skipping stones.' How could they just ignore me like this?' He thought miserably. He made his way behind some trees getting close enough to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"No offense, but you're lousy at this!" Ron said jokily.

"I just need practice, that's all." Hermione reassured herself. He cracked a small smile.

"For the first time, Hermione Granger doesn't know how to do something." he chuckled. "Very disappointing."

"This activity has nothing to do with knowledge, only strength." She retorted. Ron motioned her arms so he could teach her how to do it. "All you have to do is extend your arm and flick your wrist." When the rock hit the water it bounced twice.

"Two bounces," she said triumphantly, "not bad."

"Yeah, not bad at all." Ron replied with a grin. Suddenly, Harry found himself walking towards them.

"Ron, Hermione!" He blurted out of the blue. The couple turned their heads simultaneously.

"Harry what's wrong?" Hermione asked with a hint of fright in her tone. Harry gave her a reassuring look.

"Nothing," he answered, "I was just wondering when you two would be done with your 'game'." He saw a strange look in Ron's eyes.

"Why mate?" He questioned skeptically.

"I-I just think we should focus on searching for the Horcruxes." Ron and Hermione stared at him like he was mental.

"Voldemort could strike at any moment! We don't have all the time in the world." Harry ordered. But, before they could reply they heard a whoosh in the distance.

"What the bloody hell was that?" Ron exclaimed. Harry didn't reply as he signaled them to follow him into the depths of the forest. They tip-toed cautiously, being sure not to make any noises. The three best friends caught a glimpse of maybe three or four men. Hermione trembled with fear.

"W-Who are t-they?" she whispered carefully. Harry gave her a little shrug as he dared to go a little closer. As he crept behind a tree he gradually peered over to make out who the suspicious men were.

To his horror he saw Fenrir Greyback, Scabior and their gang of snatchers. "We got to get out of here…" he said quietly, "now."
