You know the drill. I don't own this and I'm just using the character to my own fancy.
Hermione woke up refreshed. This was definitely the best she had felt in the last 2 weeks. Maybe pranking Ron was helping her deal with the hurt she was feeling. She honestly didn't care. She never thought she would have this much fun causing trouble. It was so wrong, yet so right. He deserved everything she threw at him and he knew it or at least he will when they ask about his paperwork. She had worked extremely hard on their relationship and he deserved some kind of punishment for completely destroying everything she had worked for. She was starting to wonder why she had even tried. They had never gotten along and he was constantly bugging her about his needs. He never asked about her it was always just him. Had she been blind the entire time? Maybe their relationship had ended a long time ago and she just didn't realize it.
She pulled on her jeans and transfigured her sweater into a tank top. It was only March, but it was extremely nice outside. She was looking forward to spending her day pranking Ron and then enjoying the rest of the day outside. She slipped on a pair of shoes and started down the stairs. George met her halfway down and smirked at her "So are you ready for today?" She couldn't help but smile up at him "of course. Do you know what you'll be doing? I've already planned everything out." He raised his eyebrow "Really Granger? I doubt you could out-prank the famous Weasley duo." She simply waved her hand "O we'll see about that." They continued down to the kitchen and sat at the crowded table.
Ron was devouring 2 pieces of toast and trying to scribble a quick note on top of his stack of paperwork. Hermione sat down across from him and smiled up at him. He glanced at her "What? Is there something on my face?" She kept smiling at him and didn't say a word. He looked up at the clock and jumped up. "Shit!" He grabbed his paperwork ran out the door and disappeared with a distinct pop. Hermione looked over at Fred and George with a huge smile on her face. The twins watched Ron leave and smirked back at her.
As soon as Hermione was done eating, she rushed from the table and ran back up to Ginny's room. She had to get ready for the next phase of ruining Ron. She rummaged through her small pile for her money. She pulled just enough for he mission and walked back downstairs. There stood Fred and George looking up at her. They had their hands behind there backs and an innocent smile on their face. She looked at the two of them with a mischievous grin. "so what are the two of you up to? Are you heading to Ron's room?" They kept smiling ,but Hermione couldn't help but notice Fred's lip twitch slightly. "O we're just heading upstairs to work on a potion. We might not live her anymore, but we still use our old room" Hermione looked at them with an eyebrow raised " Well I guess you should really get to work on that potion. I'll just be on my way" They passed each other and she left for the door.
A soon as Hermione was outside she turned on the spot and found herself outside of the owlery. She prepared her packages contemplated which owl she should use. She needed to send a package about every 5 minutes so she had to pick a number of owls to participate. She selected 13 beautiful owls that were large enough to get everyone's attention. Of course the packages would draw enough attention, but what little she could draw before would be just as good. She gave each owl the package approximately 5 minutes apart and then left the owlery for the burrow.
When Hermione had arrived back at the Weasley's abode she was surprised to see Fred and George sitting outside on he favorite bench whispering to each other. She strolled over and they straightened as she approached "so are you ever going to tell me what you've done to Ron's room or am I going to have to pry it out of you?" They looked up at her and George retorted "We'll tell you what little Ronnykins is expecting if you tell us what you've been up to first." Hermione plopped down onto the bench with a smile on her face "Ron may or may not have received 13 howlers from the biggest owls I could find, and each howler may or may not have contained the most horrific insults that I could think of." The twins looked at her with their mouths hanging open "no way. You couldn't have done something so terrible." She smiled at them "We'll see won't we?" She giggle and walked towards the door.
Before Hermione could reach for the handle she heard a pop and then she heard Ron. To say he was upset about his day at work was an understatement. He was livid. He marched over to Hermione and pointed the stack of paperwork Hermione had given him. "Do you mind explaining why my paperwork describes ordinary muggle objects as sex toys or would you like to explain to me why I receive 13 howlers today in the middle of my meeting? I was humiliated!" Hermione couldn't help ,but smirk up at Ron. "O come on Ron don't take it so seriously. A little embarrassment isn't going to kill you." His eyes widened and he raged "O so a little embarrassment isn't going to kill me? Is that the excuse you've come up with? Get over yourself Hermione! The whole ministry heard those howler calling me a fat cunt and god knows what else! Then not only did my day end there, but I also had to explain my way out of this horrific paperwork. What if I had been fired!?" Hermione just smiled up at him "Ron I would have explained everything and taken the fall. You know I wasn't trying to get you fired I was just pulling a prank." Ron was seething. He narrowed his eyes at hermion and said "You know you're the fat cunt. I should have told you that ages ago, but I was too nice." Hermione looked up in surprise. Ron pushed past her and strutted into the house. She looked over at the twins who were dumbfounded. .She was about to ask them about their surprise when she heard what sounded like an explosion and then Ron screaming. She looked around shocked wondering what exactly had happened. She was about to go inside when Ron came back out. His hair and eyebrows were singed and his shirt had holes in it. He walked past Hermione and disappeared with a pop.
She was so surprised she didn't even know what to do. She just stood there dumbfounded. She was excited that the pranks had worked but at the same time she was a little sad. Hermione wouldn't admit that Ron had hurt her with his words, but she couldn't help feeling guilty. She had been a bit extreme with the pranks. She knew he would be angry ,but she was honestly surprised. She hadn't expected him to lash out at her and then try to really cut her deep. He knew that if he referenced their relationship it would hurt her. She calmed herself down and walked back over to the twins. Fred was standing up looking at her "Are you ok Hermione? He shouldn't have went that far." Hermione just nodded "I'm fine. He had every right to be that angry. I did humiliate him in front of the entire ministry." Fred just smiled at her "Have I ever told you how brilliant you are?" Hermione just smiled back at him "So what exactly happened to Ron when he went into his room?" George spoke up "we only rigged his door with some of the best fireworks we've got. As soon as he opened his door he was face to face with them." Hermione chuckled " I hadn't expected him to run into both pranks at once, but I have to say maybe it's a little better this way. I think I'm going to hold off on pranking for a while." Fred and George frowned at her "Well if you ever get a wild hair and you want to cause some trouble, you know where we are" Hermione just smiled back at them. "Of course"
The rest of the day was peaceful. Hermione was still a little upset at what Ron had said to her, but she couldn't linger on it. She had made him angry and she deserved it. Honestly she was a little proud of herself. She didn't think she could do anything like what she had done in the last 2 days. It was fun and it helped her deal with the hurt that she was feeling over the break-up. She had already accepted that the relationship was over and she was starting to move on. Her last day off was tomorrow and she planned to use it to rest. She'd been constantly crying and depressed for the entire vacation that she hadn't been able to really lay back and let out her hair.
When Hermione was finished eating dinner she went back up to Ginny's room and spent her usual couple of hours gossiping with Ginny. Ginny dosed pretty early so Hermione walked down to her usual spot on the bench an hour earlier than usual. She sat down and just let her mind wander. Her day had been so exciting and fun she didn't really have time to think about Ron, but while she was sitting there she couldn't help lingering what Ron had told her earlier that day. Even though she knew he was angry at her for the pranks and she may have deserved those words she couldn't help feeling hurt. She felt a tear run down the side of her face. She tried to stop the tears from coming ,but she couldn't help it. She wiped her eyes and started to get some water when she saw Fred. He was walking from the doorway with a glass of water. He walked over to Hermione and handed her the glass and sat down.
Hermione accepted the glass sat there in silence for a minute. Fred looked at her "Are you ok? Did Ron do something?" Hermione shook her head. "No, I was a little hurt about what he said to met earlier. I know I deserved to hear it, but I think hearing him say it just made me think back to our relationship which is still a little bit sore. Overall I've had a pretty good day I'm just emotional" Fred smiled at her "Well how about we go out and make the day a little more exciting? We still have a little bit of time." Hermione looked up at him surprised "What do you have in mind?" "Well I know this pub that isn't too far. I thought maybe you could let your hair loose for a couple of hours" Hermione just smiled back at him "it sound like fun, let's go." Fred took her arm and stood up. Fred turned on the spot and Hermione felt a distinct pressure and she was standing outside of a small pub.
Fred led Hermione into the small building and introduced her to owners. He leaned over to Hermione's ear and whispered "I'm friends with the owner. Just ask and he'll get you anything. I'm going to go say hello to a few pals. I'll be back in a bit" Hermione nodded and looked up at the lady in front of her. "Firewhiskey, please" the woman nodded and brought Hermione a large bottle. When Fred returned Hermione's head was spinning. Everything looked fuzzy and she felt strange. She'd never felt like this before. Fred smiled over at her and sat down "Well, it looks like you've been enjoying yourself" Hermione just looked up at him with a strange glint in her eye. "Hey Fred, am I pretty?" Fred just nodded "what make you think you aren't?" Hermione just look around "Well Ron wouldn't have sex with me. He kept trying to make me ,but when I finally gave in he just ignored me." Fred just looked at her for a minute "Well, Ron's an idiot. You should know that by now." Hermione interrupted him by patting his shoulder "O well, I think I'm going to get another whiskey" Fred stopped her "no, I think you've had enough for one night let's get you home. I though you could hold your liquor better Granger." She shrugged and he took her home.
Hermione woke up with a slight headache. She knew she had drank to much last night and the slight ache was proof. She woke herself up and got ready for the day. When she went downstairs Ron was waiting at the bottom of the stairs. She started to walk past him ,but he grabbed her arm. "We need to talk" Hermione just rolled her eyes and replied "not again, last time you weren't too nice" He narrowed his eyes. "Do you mind explaining to me why you were being such a bitch yesterday?" Hermione just looked at him and didn't reply. Ron stared down at her "Well? Are you going to tell me or are you going to keep you trap shut? Apologize." Hermione just narrowed her eyes "I'm not going to apologize" Ron continued " you can apologize or you can leave." Hermione just ignored him and continued towards her breakfast. She was almost to the table when grabbed her arm again this time he yelled "Well!? Are you going to stop being bitch and apologize or are you leaving?" Everyone looked up in surprise. Hermione turned around "Ron can I just eat breakfast? Just let it go" She was about to sit down when Ron spoke again "Apologize!" Hermione continued "just leave me alone Ron! Now is not the time!" Ron was about to open his mouth when Fred interrupted "Ron stop being a git. It was just a prank." Ron glared at Fred. "of course you would take up for the bitch." Fred stood and faced Ron. "Stop calling her that." Ron was about to say something when Molly interrupted everyone "What is this nonsense!? She was about to continue when Hermion stood. She turned around and started for the door. She turned around right before leaving and said "I think it's just best that I go. I don't want there to be any trouble and I was going home today anyways." She walked outside and turned on the spot. When she looked up she was standing in her apartment crying once again.
