Blaise's POV

"Okay class. For homework you must pick a potion and study everything about it. I want the ingredients, the theory, the creator and the time of creation. It is due next Monday. Class dismissed." Said Slughorn.

I walked out beside Hermione. I could practically feel Ron and Draco seething behind us.

The rest of the day passed quickly. Hermione chose to sit by me in all the classes. I was surprised but glad.

Uh-oh.

I can't believe I like her. And I mean like like! This is really bad. Draco's my best friend! It would be wrong of me to have feelings for the girl my best friend is in love with. It would be soooooo wrong.

"Okay so what potion do you want to do our project on?" asked Hermione that night at dinner.

"Um… I dunno. What do you want to do?"

"Um… how a love potion?"

"Sure. I'll get the recipe and you can get the creator and time of creation?"
"Okay. I'm heading to the library now. You coming?"
"Yeah sure." I replied. We walked out of the Great Hall together. I could feel everyone's eyes on us. I knew as soon as we were gone they would all start gossiping but Hermione didn't take any notice. We walked to the library.

"I'll get the books."

"Okay. I'll get us a table." Hermione said.

Hermione's POV

I watched as Blaise walked off looking for the right books. I walked towards the corner where the tables are.

There I got a shock. I stared at the back of the head of the person shagging the face off someone. The red hair.

"Ron!" I exclaimed. He jumped. He spun around and saw who he'd been shagging.

"You're shagging Parkinson!" I said. I turned and ran tears streaming down my face. I could hear someone calling me but I didn't turn. I kept running until I got to the heads dorm. I ran in and ran to the room I share with Blaise. I threw myself on the bed and sobbed into the pillow.

I heard the door open and close but I didn't look up. I felt Blaise sit beside me on the bed. I lifted my head into his shoulder.

I stayed there and cried as Blaise put his arms around me. Eventually I stopped crying.

"Thanks." I said.

"For what?"

"Staying here with me."

"No prob. What are friends for?" he said.

Suddenly I kissed him.

Okay so I don't know if this counts as bonding but oh well. The Ron thing was always the plan but it's sooner than I expected. Please review and tell me what you think! Please?
