Chapter 4
Hermione walked up the twisting and curving stairs. She was about to carry on up to Ron's room when she felt a hand on her shoulder. "Harry's sleeping in Fred and George's old room because they are sleeping at their shop." Hermione wondered why Mrs Weasley didn't mind the two boys sleeping away from home when Voldemort was coming back to power as she walked into the boys' old room. She knocked softly on the door and opened it slowly. There sitting in bed was Harry who had Ron sitting on a chair next to him and Ginny perching on his bed. All their heads turned to look at her and Harrys face broke into a massive smile. "Hermione!" he exclaimed. Ginny jumped up and hugged her old friend. Mrs Weasley came into the room and put the tray down on Harrys lap. "Eat up dear, you got her late last night and you're looking a little peaky." Ron, Ginny and Hermione laughed a little as Harry tucked into his breakfast. "Ginny dear can you help me tidy up downstairs?" Mrs Weasley had left the room before Ginny had even answered. "She only wants me to help because she's here." Ginny grumbled.
"Who" Asked Hermione
"Flur" Ginny replied. Before Hermione could ask why Ginny said "she is getting married to Bill." Ginny didn't look very happy about this news. Hermione sat there wide eyed, mouth open. Mrs Weasleys impatient voice floated up the stairs so Ginny got up and stormed out of the room. Hermione turned back to her two best friends. "They met at work" Ron spoke. "I don't see why everyone hates her, she's alright…" Ron's voice trailed off as Flurs head appeared around the door. "Are you alright Arry?" She walked through the door, her long silvery hair waving behind her. "I heard you got ere last night." She kissed Harry on the cheeks and picked up his empty breakfast things" I never got to say well done for winning the Triwizard Tournament" She gave him another kiss. Hermione was giving the girl daggers whilst Ron was staring up at her with a vacant look in his eyes. Flur turned on her heels and left the room. Harry looked quite shocked and a little confused. Hermione was now giving daggers to Ron. What did he see in her? She thought to herself. She decided to turn back to Harry. So what did Dumbledore want to show you? Ron also looked eagerly at Harry who was thinking back to what had happened. "He just wanted me to come and visit an old professor who is coming back to Hogwarts." Hermione and Ron looked quite disappointed. Harry smiled at them both. Hermione got up and looked around at the boxes which were lying around the room. They must have been old jokes Fred and George were working on she thought to herself. She walked round and sat on the end of Harry's bed and watched Ron for a while. She loved his ginger hair and his cute smile. The way his eyes sparkled made her heart leap. Hermione suddenly burst out "I completely forgot about our OWL results. When do they come?"
"Oh Dumbledore said that they should be coming today or tomorrow." Hermione's heart sank. She knew she must have failed Ancient Runes. She passed around the room until Ron suggested they leave so Harry could get changed.
