Lavender and Hermione kinda have an argument. Please read and review!
Chapter 4: Argument!
Both girls laughed and hugged each other. Suddenly, the door swung open and in marched Lavender.
"What are you doing here Granger?" Lavender asked with such venom. Hermione glared at her. "Is it anything to do with you? No, so will you just leave us in peace?"
"Lavender, look, just keep out of other people's business. Hermione's really upset about Ron. You know they're best friends." Ginny backed Hermione up.
"Friends! Don't make me laugh. Ever since Ron started going out with me, they haven't spoken to each other. Anyway, I just came in here to freshen up before I visit Won-Won in the hospital wing. He's very ill." Lavender said.
"We know he's ill Lavender. Why did you have to steal Ron?"
"I didn't steal him Granger. You never went out with him. Ron's my boyfriend, not yours!"
"That's about to change if I can help it!" Hermione muttered so only Ginny could hear. "Just leave us alone, you spiteful bitch! I was so upset when I found out Ron's in the hospital wing. I haven't even given him his card and present. He does care about me. Something I wouldn't expect a bitch of a cow to understand!" Hermione shouted.
"How dare you call me a bitch and a cow Granger?! You're gonna pay for that!" Lavender said.
"STUPEFY!" Hermione and Ginny shrieked. Lavender fell to the floor, cold.
"She'll come round. Let's get out of here before anyone catches us!" Hermione said. Both girls ran out of the girls' bathroom and into the Great Hall to speak to Harry. Harry listened very patiently as Ginny and Hermione recounted the argument in the bathroom with Lavender. "Hermione, you shouldn't have stunned her. You're a prefect." Harry told Hermione.
"Oh, shut up Harry before I stun you too." Hermione replied. Harry just nodded.
"Let's go and see Ron." Ginny said before Hermione and Harry started an argument.
"Okay Ginny. Hopefully he's awake and we can give him his presents." Hermione said, starting to look a bit more cheerful. They walked out of the Great Hall together. On their way to the Grand Staircase, they spotted Lavender who must have come round. She was walking towards the Great Hall. On her way past Harry, Ginny and Hermione, Lavender hissed, "I'm gonna get you for that Granger and Weasley! Just you wait. You're gonna be in so much trouble if McGonagall finds out!" Hermione looked at the other two, horror stricken. "What if she does find out? What's gonna happen to me then? Will I get expelled? Will I get stripped of my prefect status? Will I-"
"Hermione shut up and calm down! Nothing's going to happen to you. If McGonagall finds out, we have to explain exactly what happened. Maybe then she'll believe us and Lavender will get all of the blame." Harry told her. Hermione nodded and took a few deep breaths to calm herself. "Okay Harry. Thanks for that. Are we going to go and see Ron now coz I need to give him his birthday card and present like Ginny does. You already gave him his present, didn't you Harry?" Hermione said. Harry nodded. "Yep. In the dormitory this morning, before he got poisoned."
"Let's go before Hermione passes out and can't even speak to him." Ginny giggled.
Hermione hit Ginny on the shoulder lightly.
They started up the staircase to the fourth floor, where the hospital wing is. With each step she took, Hermione became more and more nervous about what state Ron would be in. She must have been shaking really hard because Ginny put a hand on her shoulder to steady her. "Are you sure you're okay 'Mione? You look kinda scared." Hermione answered her. "I'm okay. I'm just worried about Ron, that's all. And don't ever call me by that dreadful nickname. My dad calls me that."
They reached the hospital wing. "Who wants to see Ron first? Oh, Hermione, I think Ron would want to see you first!" Ginny said, with a cheeky grin on her face.
"Okay, I'll go first. Harry, will Ron remember any of us?"
"Of course he will. Like he could ever forget his best mate, sister and his other best mate he's been crushing on since 4th year!" Harry told her. Hermione gave Harry a look that made him shut up. She walked into the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey walked up to her. "Can I help you, Miss Granger?" She asked.
"I'm here to see Ron Weasley. I brought something for him." Hermione told Madam Pomfrey. Madam Pomfrey nodded. "This way." Hermione followed her to a bed with a curtain round it. "Mr Weasley, you've got a visitor. Just don't be too long." She whispered the last part to Hermione who nodded.
She left them alone. Hermione opened the curtain and walked up to Ron's head. "Hi Ron. How are you? Harry told me everything that happened. I was so scared!" Hermione sobbed. Ron put his arms round her and she cried on his shoulder. "I'm okay now Hermione. Thank God Harry found that Beazor. I'm lucky to be alive. I really am sorry for everything that happened with Lavender."
"That's okay. By the way, I kinda stunned Lavender in the girls' bathroom earlier. We kinda had a bitch fight. Ginny helped me stun her. You should have seen me when Harry told me what had happened. I was in tears."
"You have seriously gotta tell me what when on in the bitch fight!" Ron laughed. Hermione explained what had happened. "I was getting tired of her anyway to be honest with you. Thanks for attacking her. The truth is, I don't love her at all. There is this one girl who I really fancy. She's been through a lot with me and she's always been very brave. She's a great friend, even though she's a little obsessed with homework." Ron told her. Hermione looked at him with amazement when he said this last part. "Me? You like me? Really?" Hermione was shocked. Ron just grinned at her, a little embarrassed. "Yes, you! I was afraid to tell you because I was worried that you might turn me down."
"When could I ever say no to you? I really like you too, even though you went out with a total cow like Lavender!"
"I'll dump her as soon as I get out of the hospital wing. That's a promise" Ron said.
"That's exactly what I wanted to hear." Hermione leaned towards Ron and their lips finally met! She kissed him very lovingly. He was pretty shocked at first, but then started kissing her back. It seemed like hours, but it was only about 5 minutes. When they finally broke apart, Hermione handed Ron his present and card. "Happy 17th birthday Ron!" Hermione said. Ron opened the card, then the present. The present was a photo of them in 3rd year by the Shrieking Shack. Just the two of them. A piece of paper fell out. "You wrote a song for me? Oh Hermione! That's so sweet of you!" Ron said. He read the song. It said "Oh Ronald Weasley, by Hermione Granger. This is a song just for Ron. Hopefully he'll understand exactly how I feel about him and Lavender." Ron laughed at the song, and then pulled her into the sweetest kiss possible. Hermione said, "I better go outside. Harry and Ginny will want to see you. See you later Ron." And with a kiss on the cheek, she walked out. "How is he? Is he okay?" Ginny asked.
"Never better!" Was Hermione's reply. She had a dazed look as she walked away from Harry and Ginny. She had just kissed Ron! Life couldn't get any better than this.
Sorry the chapter was really long. Hopefully I did a good job. I wanted them to kiss at some point! Review now that you've read the chapter!
