CHAPTER 10---HORRIBLE INSTANCES

Harry was really suspicious. During lunch he went into Hermione's dorm and went to see if he could find out what was wrong. When he got there he saw a packet of papers lying there. They were the papers sent by Draco telling her she was related to him. Harry found out everything, he found out that Dea, was Hermione. He, however, didn't know that Ron was in love with her. As he read these papers he couldn't believe his eyes, it was horrifying for him to see this. He however knew now, that Hermione wasn't in love with Draco, so he could have his chance to show his love to her.

In Potions Class….

"Why didn't you tell me?" Harry said angered.

"Tell you what?" Ron asked.

"Hermione is related to Draco, and her real name is Dea, and she is the blonde haired girl in this class." Harry whispered.

"Who told you?"

"No one. I found out myself, the papers were on her bed."

"Please, don't spread the news, please."

"I won't. But I'm also never believing anything you tell me."

"I was going to tell you, Harry, please don't get mad."

"I'm already mad, Ron, it's too late."

Later, during dinnertime, Harry came up to Dea and asked her if she would meet him in his room.

"Why? What is it that you need?"

"I'll tell you later, when we get there."

So both of them crept up to his room as quietly as they could. And Harry told her, how he found out about her, Dea was so surprised at him.

"I, I was going to tell you."

"Shhh, It's okay." Harry said as he put a finger to her lips. "What I don't understand is why you told Ron and not me."

"Sorry, I just thought, it would be better to save it for later."

"It's okay. At least you are free to be my girlfriend. You know I love you, don't you?"

Dea gasped. And Harry grabbed her shoulders and kissed her. Dea tried to pull away, but Harry had a very tight grip. She felt no spark, no tingling sensation as she did with Ron. Finally she managed to pull away from him.

"Harry, what are you doing?"

"I love you, and I wanted to express that to you."

"Harry, I, I don't love you. You are just my friend. I thought you knew that."

"What?"

"Didn't Ron tell you? He loves me. He is my lover now. We kissed Harry, and I felt something."

"How could he have not told me? I am so mad at him. He is a hell of a friend!"

"I'm sorry, I thought he told you."

"Well he didn't."

"I can kind of see why Harry. You would get really upset if he told you right away." Just at that moment, Ron came into the room, because, he shared a dorm with Harry. He had a horrid look on his face, it was the most guilty looking face that Dea had ever seen.

"I'm sorry Harry! I should have told you." But then his face turned from guilty to angry. "But you should have told me, that you loved her as well. At least I showed signs that I did. In case you haven't noticed, I wrote her name everywhere, I gave her roses. You didn't do a thing."

"I didn't know you sent her roses. Ron, don't be getting mad at me! It's your fault you didn't tell me right away!"

"If I did, you would be screaming at me, just as you are now Harry! You have a big jealously problem. I love her, and she loves me. I saw you guys kissing before I came in. It didn't look like she liked it, Harry. You are a hell of a friend too, Harry. You knew that I liked her ever since we came to Hogwarts, you knew it."

"That was just puppy love, Ron. Puppy love."

They didn't notice it, but Dea was already gone. They had been arguing alone. Dea didn't want to hear them argue, it was weird. Usually he argued with her, not with Harry. She had never seen best friends so angry at each other. She also didn't know that Harry ever liked her more than a friend. He never seemed to show it. 'Maybe he's just different. He shows love in a different way. But what I know is that, Ron showed it in a good way, and I felt the kiss, which means I really do like him, not Harry.' She thought.

The rest of the day Harry and Ron didn't speak to each other. And both of them tried to talk to Dea, but she always backed away from them. She spent more time near Draco, it was okay to talk to him now. But she could only spend half an hour with him, because he said that he had some serious business to take care of, involving his dad. Dea had no clue what he was talking about. But as she was soon to find out, it would involve her, and it would be a very horrible instance.
