Chapter 21: Hermione Cursing?

'Darn it,' Hermione cursed. Although it sounds un-Hermione like but in these circumstances, it's an exception to curse.

Since there was no one there, Hermione decided to let her anger out there.

"Darn it, darn it, darn it," she cursed and cursed until she was satisfied.

After about five minutes cursing, Hermione was done and then sat herself on the couch.

"Are you done cursing?" a voice asked her.

Hermione turned around. "Ron," she said, "what are you doing here?"

Ron put his hand at his neck. "Well, I'm not quite sure," he said.

"Just go away, Ron," Hermione said.

"Actually, I don't have to go away because this is the common room and every student has the right to be here," Ron said.

"Well, fine," Hermione told him, standing up with her arms folded near her chest. "Than I'm the one who's leaving."

Hermione was about to go to her dorm room when Ron said, "Hermione, stop."

Hermione really did stop but she didn't turn around to look at Ron. "What is it?" Hermione asked.

"I can't do anything if you don't tell me anything," Ron said.

"You really are blind, aren't you, Ron?" Hermione said and continued her way to the girls' dorm room to the room she shared with Ginny.

Ron sat on the couch. "This is so not right," he said.

Then, Ron began to thought, 'I wonder why 'Mione is so angry with me?' Then, he said to himself, "Let's see." Ron then had a flashback.

FLASHBACK

Ron saw Hermione coming into the Gryffindor's Common Room so he said, "'Mione, can you come over here for a sec?"

Sakura and Tomoyo nodded their heads so Hermione went to where Ron and Harry are sitting. Sakura, Tomoyo and Ginny as well as Syaoran and Eriol went back to their dorm rooms' first.

Hermione sat down on a couch beside where Ron and Harry are sitting. "So, what is it you want to ask me, Ron?" Hermione asked.

"Can you please help me with homework?" Ron pleaded. "Potions is tomorrow and Snape will really give Detention, you know."

Hermione's heart fell. "Oh, is that it?" She asked.

The clueless Ron said, "Of course that's it. What else is there to it?"

"I'm just a 'Homework Helper' to you?" Hermione said.

"You're my best friend and best friend help friend's with their homework." Ron said. "What else is there?"

"Just a best friend," Hermione said. Her tears are threatening to fall. After a deep breath, Hermione said, "Ron, you better find someone else to help you out with homework because I'm not helping you anymore."

"Well than," Ron said. "I don't need you too, Hermione."

END OF FLASHBACK

"That's it," Ron cried out. "The reason 'Mione is upset is because I called her 'just a best friend'." Then, Ron put his index finger at his chin and said to himself, "But why would she be upset?"


Justin, on the other hand, had used the way Syaoran had suggested; which is 'sense Meilin'. Unfortunately, he can't sense Meilin, even after he used a little of his power.

Then Justin smacked his head, "Hey, how could I forget? The only place that we can't sense anyone is if their in the place created by Clow Reed."

Then, with a big smile of accomplishment, Justin walked towards the room created by Clow Reed.

After he entered, he saw his sister sleeping with her four elements creatures.

Justin smiled and shook his head, "Meilin, Meilin," he said to himself.

He walked towards Meilin, who is sleeping at the corner of the room. Justin sat next to Meilin while caressing her soft, black hair.

"I know you must hate me right now," Justin said. "But I just have to see for myself why Harry Potter is so special in your eyes."

Meilin just stirred in her sleep so Justin just sat there patiently till Meilin woke up


Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo and Eriol are resting near the big willow tree by the lake at the Hogwarts ground.

"So, what are you ladies up to lately?" Eriol asked.

"Well," Tomoyo said. "We're trying to make Ron jealous."

"I see," Eriol said. "And how, may I ask, you're planning to make him jealous, my lady?"

"Well, that's where Justin came in," Tomoyo said.

"Talking about Justin, I wonder if he and Meilin had worked things out," Sakura, who was lying on the ground with her head on Syaoran's thigh.

"I don't know," Syaoran said.

"You know, it's not fair that I don't have a clue of what happened between Meilin and Justin," Eriol said, pretended to be hurt.

"Oh, so the reincarnation of Clow Reed is feel unjust that he don't know all the details," Syaoran said.

"Haha, very funny Syao," Eriol said. "Now, seriously, what happened?"

So, Tomoyo and Sakura started telling the tale that happened earlier that morning.

"Oh, don't worry about them," Eriol said. "I know they'll be okay by tonight."

"Hope so," Syaoran said.

"Well, enough about that," Sakura said. "What are you two boys up to today?"

"Well," Syaoran said, "I just kept myself busy."

"How about you, Eriol?" Tomoyo asked. "I feel like I haven't seen you all day."

Yeah, it was kind of true. Tomoyo and Sakura just met up with the boys during lunch.

"Well, not much," Eriol said. "Mostly, I spent the day with Nakuru and Spinnel."

"I see," Tomoyo said.

Then, Sakura asked, "What are we going to do now?"

"For one thing, I know we can't go to the 'Secret Room' yet," Syaoran said.

With a mischievous smile on Eriol's face, he said, "Yeah, Syaoran's right, I believe the room is occupied now."

Understanding what their boyfriend's are saying, Sakura just keep lying down beside Syaoran and Tomoyo just rested her head on Eriol's shoulder as the two pair of couples enjoyed the afternoon view of the lake outside Hogwarts


It had been about an hour since Justin found Meilin sleeping with her four elements creature.

Meilin than woke up and stretched her hands.

"Finally you're awake."

Meilin was surprised that Justin was sitting beside her because the last thing she remembered was she's alone in the 'Secret Room'.

"What are you doing here?" Meilin asked.

Her element creatures had already returned to their own rubies.

"And I thought you are going to give me the silent treatments the minute you know I'm here," Justin said.

"Answer me, Justin," Meilin snapped.

"Alright, alright," Justin said. "I'm trying to make things right."

Meilin just looked at Justin with a raised eyebrow.

"I was wrong to treat Harry like that," Justin said. "But I'm not sorry," he added in.

"What?!" Meilin said.

"You're my only sister and my closest relative, Mei, and I trust your judgment but I'm also your older brother," Justin said. "I have the right to test whether he is good for my little sister."

"Hey, that statement makes me feel like a child," Meilin said and playfully smacked Justin's hand.

"Does that mean it's a truce?" Justin asked.

"You bet it is," Meilin said. She laughed as Justin pulled her in a hug.

"Well, do you want to go out now," Justin asked. "I feel really stiff after seating here for hours."

"Sure," Meilin said.

Justin and Meilin went out of the 'Secret Room' created by Clow Reed.


Harry and Ron just went for a flying practice. Now, they are resting on the quidditch pitch.

"So, did you have a talk with 'Mione?" Harry asked.

"Do you know that 'Mione could curse?" Ron said.

"No, I don't," Harry said. "Don't try to change the subject, Ron."

"Well, not really," Ron said. Harry just looked Ron with a raised eyebrow. Finally, Ron said, "Okay, I didn't actually talk to her."

"Why didn't you?" Harry asked.

"She didn't let me," Ron said.

Harry sighed. "Alright, what did you do?" he asked.

"Why do you always assumed I did something?" Ron asked Harry. "I thought you're my best friend."

"Well, you are always insensitive of her feelings sometimes," Harry said.

"What do you mean by that?" Ron asked, feeling a little bit insulted.

"Well, exhibit no. 1," Harry said. "Tomoyo once asked you who you're going with to the Halloween Dance and you answered, 'No one I guess," Harry quoted.

"Okay, maybe I am insensitive," Ron said.

"So, now will you answer my question?" Harry asked.

"Well, I told 'Mione that if she didn't tell me what the problem is, I don't think there's anything I could do," Ron said. "And then Hermione said, 'you really are blind, aren't you, Ron?" Ron added.

Harry made a face and said, "Ouch!"

"So, I can't do anything," Ron said.

"If you really couldn't figure it out, Ron, than maybe I'll have to agree with 'Mione," Harry said. "You really are blind."

"You're acting like 'Mione," Ron asked.

"Think deeply Ron and then you'll know what's up with 'Mione," Harry said. He stood up and mounts his broom.

"Hey, Harry," Ron said. Before Ron could say anything else, Harry flew high in the sky. "Ah, why did everything became a big puzzle?" Ron asked himself.
