Classes came back the next day and Hermione was worried about running into Ginny. She always fancied Harry and Ron no doubt told her that Harry and her were dating, and with the infamous Weasley temper, she must have thrown a major fit.
Hermione also knew that Dumbledore would be furious, so she made it a commitment to always be around someone so he couldn't get to her alone.
Hermione got dressed in her school uniform and grabbed her books for the day's classes. Violet, Pansy, and Daphne were already out of the dormitory and Hermione found them in the Common Room and they were waiting for her and the boys.
"What took you so long to get ready?" Violet asked her best friend and Hermione yawned.
"I'm tired from yesterday's problems with Ronald and just don't want to see Ginny because she will freak that I'm dating the boy she fancies," Hermione admitted.
"You'll be fine, we won't let her anywhere near you," Hermione heard Samuel say as the boys joined them and the girls got up.
They exited through the portrait and hurried to the Great Hall for breakfast.
Hermione looked over to Harry and they exchanged smiles to each other. But as Hermione looked over, she saw Ginny glaring at her.
Hermione tried her best to ignore her and went back to eating her breakfast with her housemates. But she could feel Ginny's angry gaze on her and it unnerved her immensely.
Hermione went throughout her day as normal and nothing out of the ordinary happened until she got separated from Violet and ran into Ginny on the fourth floor.
"You stole Harry from me, you b***ch. How could you? We were supposed to be friends," Ginny yelled and slapped Hermione across the face and Hermione turned and glared at the fourth year (A.N: Takes place in Hermione's fifth year if you haven't been paying attention).
"I stole him from you? Listen Ginny, Harry is a human being and doesn't belong to anyone. If he truly loved you he would have asked you to be his girlfriend and not me, but he asked me instead and now your being a selfish and obnoxious b***ch that can't let go," Hermione ranted until Violet ran around the corner.
"Hermione, thank goodness I found you. Draco, me and the rest of the gang are going to the library to study and we were wondering if you wanted to join us?" Violet asked her best friend.
"Is Harry going to be there?" Hermione asked hopefully and she saw Ginny fuming.
"Yeah, he's there, talking with Draco right now and they're talking like best friends," Violet said slyly.
Hermione turned towards Ginny who was super mad and she quietly opened her mouth,
"I'm sorry to break this conversation short, but I have to meet with my boyfriend, brother and my best friends. Later," Hermione told Ginny and walked off with Violet towards the rest of her best friends and her waiting boyfriend.
The rest of the day was floating in between classes and working on essays and avoiding Ron and Ginny. But pretty soon became harder for Harry and Hermione to do that and Hermione felt increasingly threatened by Dumbledore and not knowing what he was up to.
Hermione loved the days she just spent curled up in her boyfriend's arms and for her it was a piece of heaven. But Hermione felt that it would soon be time to tell Harry what Dumbledore did to wrong her family and she hoped that he would still believe and love her after she told him.
