This is the epilogue. Where you find out Ron's reaction, why Draco got a good score, what Harry will do about his "A" and the confuzzlement on reading Luna's quiz.
The next day, the post-owls gave everyone their tests with the results on at breakfast. As usual, Ron was livid over his.
"A T?" He cried, his voice echoing through the whole castle.
They were currently walking to Potions, still commenting over each other's scores.
"It isn't that bad, Ron." Hermione replied with an eye-roll.
"That's easy for you to say," He snapped, "Little Miss Outstanding." He glared at her test.
"Just because you decided to be a prat during that test doesn't mean it's my fault." She rolled her eyes.
"It sorta is as you never helped me study." He shrugged. She lost her cool that time.
"Never helped you study?" The Muggle-born snapped. "I offered to tutor you since the beginning of the year and it was always "No Hermione, I'll be fine", or "No Hermione, I know the technics of a flaming feletone!" By the way it's telephone."
The red-head rolled his eyes at her. "Okay, I forgot one little thing. That doesn't deserve a T." He argued.
"Let's see your test." She ordered him. He shoved the parchment in her hands. She automatically frowned at it.
"Why in Merlin did you draw me instead of answering what a Muggle-born was?" She snapped.
"It was easier!" He deffended. At that moment Harry, who'd been in a meeting with Dumbledore about the secret of Voldemort (Horcruxes, read HBP people if you didn't get it.), looked happy and a little disappointed all the same.
"Hey Harry, what did you get?" Hermione asked.
"An A." He replied with a nod. "What did you get? No, wait, let me guess: an O?" She nodded, over the moon with her results. Harry highfived her in congratularaty.
"What did you get Ron?" He asked.
"A T." His bestfriend muttered.
"Ah, at least you can make up for it in the re-test on Thursday. You did better than Crabbe and Goyle, at the most." He shrugged.
"That's because they didn't even take the test!" His friend whined.
"Malfoy probably did worse than you." Hermione offered. "We can get him and find out?"
"Guys, what did you get on the test?" They turned and saw Ginny walk over to them, with Luna and Neville in tow.
"O. The only person in the school too." Hermione said. "Well, that's what Professor Burbage said when she caught up to me straight after breakfast." She shrugged.
"Ah, cool. I got an E." Ginny shrugged as the two swapped answers.
"Wow, Ginny," Ron mocked, "Nice washing machine drawing." His sister quickly snatched the parchment away before Harry got to see it.
"What did you get, Nev?" Harry asked.
"A P. I have to do the make-up test, you?" The nervous boy asked.
"An A." Harry smiled, staring at the first couple of questions on Ginny's now folded-up parchment.
"Ginny, come with me so I can convince Professor Burbage to give me an E. It's a bit unfair I only got an A." Harry sulked.
"God, Harry. Modest much?" Neville joked. Ginny laughed at this as she linked with Harry and called a "See ya guys later!" to the rest.
"What did you get, Luna?" Hermione asked. Luna, who was lost in her own world, blinked at the sudden question.
"Oh, a D." She said simply. Ron, confused, snatched her test away from her to read it but, her being Luna, didn't mind. Or notice.
"A D? A D? How the bloody hell did you get a D?" He exploded.
"Ron! Stop it!" Hemrione scolded, handing Luna her test back as Slughorn appeared to tell them class had begun.
"See you later Luna." The three said, stepping in. At last moment, Harry skidded in, a goofy smile on his face.
"I got an E! I got an E!" He called to them, making Ron as red as his hair.
Malfoy and his "crew" wandered in last and Hermione walked up to him, Ron in tow.
"What did you get Malfoy?" She asked him. He blinked once at her.
"In your Muggle Studies Test!" She exclaimed, after rolling her eyes.
"I don't see how it's any of your business, Granger." He replied calmly.
She snatched the test of him and read through it, completely ignoring his answer on Question 12. "An E? How in Merlin did you get an E?" She cried.
"It's unsurprising, Granger. It's a little trick called studying. As much as me and my family hate anything Muggles, he threatened that if I didn't get a good grade in any of my lessons, I'd regret it. I don't know what he was referring too and I don't want to find out." He rolled his eyes. "Can I have my test back?"
"So," She asked in a small voice, "Despite the fact your pure-bloodness hates all things Muggle and your father is livid about you having to take that class, he wanted you to get a good score on this test?"
"Exactly, Mudblood. Well done." He clapped a sarcastic clap. "If it wasn't for my [true] answer on number 12, I would have gotten an O just like you." He said, walking to his seat.
"This is insane." Hermione muttered to herself, frozen to the spot. "Malfoy can't get a good score."
"C'mon 'Mione," Harry said, gently pulling her back to their table. "Everything's alright."
At the Gryffindor table that lunch-time, people were still talking about their test results. Hermione, despite being completely out of it, managed to smile and thanked people who congratulated her on her being the only one with an O.
"Dean just got an A." Seamus told Harry, Ron and Neville. "And I got an A aswell!"
"Well done." Harry said. "I originally had an A but I convinced Professor Burbage to change it and now I have an E!"
Ron was grumbling under his breath, stabbing his chips (fries, in American) with his fork.
"Harry and Hermione." The two turned around and saw Colin Creevey. "Do you mind if I take a photo of the two people with the highest scores in 6th Year Gryffindor? And, of course, Hermione needs a seperate one, having the highest grade in the whole school! Well done!"
"Thanks Colin. I'm up for a photo if Harry is." The latter nodded and they smiled as the camera flashed.
Hermione got a singular one and Colin congratulated her once again before to take a picture of the Fifth Year Gryffindors with the highest scores. "Oh, Colin?" The brunette asked, stopping the small boy. "We forgot to ask, what score did you get on your test?"
"Oh, just an A." He shrugged.
"Well done." Hermione smiled.
"Thank you." And he went to bother some other people.
"God forbid if we have to do another test. Just one is enough for Muggle Studies." Harry said, chuckling.
"Poor Ron, he has the make-up test on Thursday." Hermione said.
Ron glowered as they laughed, exam results forgotten as Harry held Ginny's hand across the table.
By the next morning, all of it was forgotten - until the Daily Prophet got sent out and there was a section of everyone and their results which hyped people up more.
The end.
That was the final chapter. Thank you to all of those who reviewed and subbed and stuff. Though it was the final chapter of this story, doesn't mean it's litterally the final chapter.
I have one more chapter left which explains what the Muggle Appreciation Series is about. I'm considering a sequal one with Luna, Neville and Ron's make-up test but, I'm not sure yet.
I hope you all enjoyed it!
