Sweet Almost

Chapter 14: Games

Amber just stood there looking horrified, Ron chuckled softly.

Finally Amber broke the mild silence. "Hermione 'miss-know-it-all-but-I'm-really-a-flighty-whore' Granger! I can't believe you'd imply that I'm not pregnant! Do I not look pregnant to you!" She motioned to her stomach.

Everyone's eyes went to her perfectly flat stomach that slightly dipped in at her hipbones. "Actually your not showing one bit. What's your secret?" Hermione leaned forward placing her head in her hand, resting her elbow on her knee. Hermione was through with this girl. She and Ron were like brother and sister, nothing more, she needed to stop. Hermione was going to beat this girl at her own game.

"I don't have a-" Amber started to say she didn't have a secret.

"Is it your period?" Hermione looked completely innocent.

"Excuse me?" Amber stood with her mouth open and her hand to her chest.

"Your period. Is that why your not showing?" Hermione was being sickeningly sweet.

"Ron! Make her stop!" Amber tried to get Ron to defend her.

"No." Ron looked at her with a 'what are you gonna do about it' look glued to his face.

"What did you just say to me?" Amber looked like steam should be coming out of her ears.

"I said no. I'm not going to defend you against my best mate. I've known her way longer, and I think she's bloody right." Ron still had the same look on his face.

"Ron! You know she's lying! You know you got me pregnant! That day we forgot the charm!" Amber was getting flustered.

"See Amber dear that's where you're wrong. I never forget that charm." Ron smirked at everyone.

"Ron! Come on do you think I'd lie to you!" Amber was begging him with her eyes now.

"No Amber. I've known for too long. I've just been too polite to say it. It's a shame, 'Mione, you had to rub off on me in that sense." Her said the last part turning to Hermione who was now sitting back in her chair watching with a content face.

"Ronnie! How can you say that!"

"Like this, leave me and my family alone. Forever. Starting now." Ron handed her, her bags and an old boot. "This will take you back to your apartment. And I never want to see you here again." The second Amber took the port key from Ron she disappeared. Ron sat back. "Well that was much easier than I thought it'd be. I was going to take her upstairs and do it there, but Hermione you helped so much."

A/N: I know that was a really long wait for this dinky little thing but I'm going to work on the next chapter all this week and hopefully get it updated before next weekend. Well review me it makes me wanna write more…
