Chapter 7:

"Oh man I completely forgot, I'll drive you. Let me just get my keys" Harry said

"Okay, I'll be waiting outside"

-----------------------------------

The drive home to Hermione's was went by fairly quick. When Harry's car arrived in front of Hermione's ranch style home, it was dark. The only light shining through the windows came from the front window, which was the living room in the house. Harry gave Hermione a quick kiss on the mouth and let her out of the car. She waved goodbye and walked up to the front door.

Hermione checked to see I the door was left unlocked before she got her keys out. It was, so there wasn't a need to reach in her purse for the house keys. Stumbling in through the door, she yelled to Ron that she was home. She heard a quiet moan coming from the next room. Ron was sitting with his feet on the coffee table, watching a movie.

"Hi Ron" Hermione said to her husband

"Hermione," Ron acknowledged. "I'm sorry about earlier today"

"Its okay" Hermione sighed "Ron I need to talk to---"

"Hermione, I need to know something first." Ron interrupted

"Okay . . ." Hermione said blandly

"Alright, Hermione, I know you haven't been going to the store every single goddamn night. And even if you were going to the store, why in the middle of the night . . . that's just not what you do. I just want to know where you are going . . ." Ron said angrily and then looked at his feet.

"That is just where I was getting. Ron, yeah you're right, I haven't been going to the store—"

"Then where have you been going?" Ron asked

"To Harry's" Hermione said softly

"Oh" Ron knew what she was going to say. "Why?"

"Well you see, um . . . Harry and I are sort of in a relationship" Hermione said. It broke her heart to tell Ron this.

"I see how it is. Excuse me" Ron said getting up.

Ron walked from the couch to the door and to the bedroom. Slamming the door, he sat on the bed and shed his tears. Ron didn't know what to think anymore. His life seemed to get worse and worse every day he lived. He had to get out.

Hermione was still sitting in the living room. She had been staring at the same spot for a few minutes now, kind of in a trance. She was thinking, thinking about all she had done, and her relationship with Ron, and how she used a lame excuse like going to the store to cover up her leaving for Harry's.

Still staring at that same particular spot, a tear trickled down Hermione's cheek . . .

A/N: oh I'm sorry for the cliffhanger. I didn't know what to do. I'm not good at writing arguments . . . but I will write the next chapter when I get a chance. Don't worry.
