Chapter 14

S-N-O-G-G-I-N-G

A/N:  I've got nothing to say right now?  Oh, do you know what the hardest thing in writing fanfiction is?  Calling Draco "Malfoy."  I can't do it now that I'm used to calling him Draco.

"I can't believe she hexed me!"

"I hear that you deserved it," Ginny said, laughing, on Wednesday morning at the breakfast table.  Ron had a huge green boil in the middle of his forehead, as a punishment for what happened last night with Hermione. 

"Stop laughing!" Ron shouted.  Jessica, Jo'el and Jonelle walked by, pointing and laughing at Ron.  Ron looked angrily at his breakfast, muttering to himself.

Just then, Hermione came to the table and took a seat next to Ginny, across from Ron. 

"We need to talk," Hermione said to Ron.

"Damn straight."  Ron and Hermione got up and Ron followed her out into the hall, which was empty except for Ernie MacMillian.

"Okay, all I wanted to say was that I shouldn't have gotten so mad and hexed you.  I'm really sorry."

"Apology accepted."

"Good."  Hermione reached over and slapped Ron hard in the face.  "You deserved that, now answer my question.  Are you jealous?"

"Look, Hermione, I've been doing a lot of thinking.  You know...err... about last night and all.  And I... err....ahh...."

"Ron, are you jealous?" Hermione repeated with more zeal then she had before.  "I'm just looking for a one word answer.  Yes or no."

"Yes," he said slowly.  Ron looked embarrassed.  Hermione looked touched.  Ernie looked disgusted.

"You are?" Hermione asked.  Ron, shamefully, hung his head.

"Yeah," he said quietly.  Hermione, so suddenly that it even surprised her, grabbed Ron's face and pulled his face down to hers.  While Hermione and Ron were sharing a deep meaningful kiss, Harry, Dawn and Ginny had decided to investigate what has going on between their two friends.  When they got out into the corridor, Harry was ecstatic, Dawn thought it was the sweetest thing she had ever seen, Ginny thought it was the grossest thing she had ever seen, and Ernie told Ron and Hermione to get a room.

                        Dear Janice,

You asked me to write as soon as I got settled in and tell you about all of the cute boys in England.  Well, lets just say that there are a whole lot of them.  I'll name them as I first saw them, because that seems fitting.

1. Draco Malfoy.  He's blonde and obnoxious as hell, but fun to look at.  He eyes are gray, and they have that look that could melt a girl, or skewer his enemies

2. Ron Weasley.  Red-headed and a temper to match.  He is currently dating one of my friends and I think of him only has a friend, but there is something about those freckles.

3. Harry Potter.  A god!  Honestly, I think that he is the hottest boy to ever walk the planet.  He's got this amazing black hair, and green eyes that make all the girls at school go gaga.  I have such a crush on him.  He is so sweet and funny.  He's kind of got this thing that makes me feel special.  Too bad he doesn't like me.  I know, I know, you hate it when I put myself down, but it's true!  I'm just some new American girl that hangs out with him and his friends, but then he did volunteer to tutor me, and he's teaching me astronomy, which means lots of night classes.  Last lesson I think he was going to kiss me!  But I must have just imagined it.

4. Oliver Wood.  He's our. P.E. teacher.  Kind of. He's  Scottish, and muscular, but you can't compare him to Harry.  Plus, I hear he has a girlfriend named Ruth.

5. Last, and least, is Gregory Golye.  He's not really cute, kind of big and stupid, but I just imagined him with glasses one day, and, in my imagination, he looked really  cute.

Well, that's it, but I'll give you more updates when I meet more guys.  I miss you and everyone else back in Sunnydale.  Write to me and tell me what's going on there.  Who's dating who?  How much homework are you getting?  I'll try to come back this summer.

                                                                  Hugs and Kisses

- Dawn

It was two hours after breakfast and Dawn was lost.  Everyone was still in class, and Dawn didn't know where she was and how she was going to get back to the common room so she could finish her homework. 

Dawn turned a corner and right into-

"Harry!  Why aren't you in class?"

"I told you that I didn't have classes this morning, remember?"

"Oh, right.  I remember now.  I just spaced out and forgot," she said giving Harry a small half smile.

"Follow me."  Harry reached out his hand, while grinning back at Dawn.  She reached out and grabbed his hand and he led her out of the corridor that they were in.  Harry eventually took Dawn into a small room on the third floor.

"Where are we?"

"A room."

"What was it used for?" Dawn said after she noticed some rather large scratch marks on the walls.

"Dumbldore hid a big dog in here once."

"Like a German Shepard?"

"Kind of, but it had three heads."

"Oh."

"It's also the very center of the school.  I checked in my map, and saw that this is it;  the Heart of Hogwarts."  Dawn looked  up at Harry, his face only inches from hers.  Ever so slowly, he brought his lips down to hers, and they shared their first kiss.  Or as a Englishman would call it, a snog.
