On the train I couldn't find Harry and Ron. So I made Hermione and Clara sit with me, the twins and their sister Ginny.
"You two haven't seen Harry or Ron have you?" They shook their heads. I sat down across from George. Clara and Ginny were talking in the corner.
Me and the twins started talking about pranks while Hermione gave us disapproving looks.
"I have the best Idea ever!" I shouted after a while.
"Please-"
"Tell."
"Well it involves paint and Snape."
"I like where you're going with this. You are brilliant!" said George. My cheeks got hot at that. I looked over at Hermione.
She was smiling. I started worrying about what was going on in her head. I quickly grabbed my robes and went to go get changed.
I really hope Hermione's not going to question me about this, I thought to myself.
I was wrong however. After the feast (Ginny and Clara were sorted into Gryffindor and Harry and Ron finally showed up) Hermione and I went up to our dorm and started unpacking our stuff.
Once done unpacking I sat down on my four poster. Hermione came over. She was grinning.
"Hi..." I looked at her quizzically.
"I saw that on the train."
"Saw what exactly?"
"You blush when George said you were brilliant."
"Shut up 'Mione." I hid my head under my pillow.
"You like him."
My head popped up from underneath the pillow. "Oh well no duh." My head went back underneath the pillow.
She started laughing. "IT'S NOT FUNNY!"
"Yes it is."
"Not really. I mean I'm really good and not really letting anyone know and he's too oblivious to notice. And I know he'll never notice me. I'm forever going to be 'just a friend.'"
"Well you never know."
"Oh I know all right. Now if you don't mind I'm going to sleep because I really don't feel like teased anymore about this."
"Goodnight." Hermione said.
I mumbled 'night' and got changed then went to bed.
