AN: Hello! Thanks to Emily – the tropical storm that turned to nothing but rain – the start of my classes was delayed. I have mixed feelings about it, but you don't want to know about that, you are here for the next chapter, so I leave you to read it. Enjoy :D

Are You Okay?

"Are you okay?"

I looked up. "What?"

"You seem distracted. Is everything alright?"

"Er, yes?" I tried my best to sound convincing but that was a huge failure.

"Are you sure?"

What do you expect, for me to run around spilling my deepest secrets to anyone who asks if I'm alright? To tell everyone and anyone that asks me a simple question? If that's what you want then fine! I am not okay. I am terrified. I have never felt this way before... I see him everywhere, I know I deny it and try to avoid it, but what's the point? I know I see him. I can't do anything without being reminded that he's somewhere in my mind.

Dinner time? Ron loves food.

Lesson time? I take extra notes because I know he won't pay attention and ask for my help, and after trying to say no, he'll break me down - who can really say no to him?

When I'm in the library? I smile because it's peaceful, quiet, but I can't help but to miss him.

I can't even buy a bloody pet without thinking of him! Yes, I admit I got Crookshanks because he reminded me of Ron. Proud, slightly arrogant, painfully looked over on, underestimated, loyal, friendly, cuddly, ginger...

Here I am, Hermione Granger, 'smartest witch of my age' or so they say, trying to hide the fact that what's on my mind most of the time is my gangly, insensitive ginger of a best friend. But is it wrong that I don't mind?

"Yes, I'm sure."

AN 2: I am having some writer's block so the next chapters will take a tad longer to write/post. Plus I decided to take a gander on tumblr and I've been hooked, so for hours on end I've been sitting scrolling down and viewing some awesomely funny things.

I have to admit that I've mostly been 'exploring' the Harry Potter tags, and that is part of my writer's block. I believe my mind's motto is: If I see it I don't have to think it and/or elaborate it. I will try to avoid tumblr, but it's so darn addictive…

I have been given a prompt that I'll do my best to complete as soon as possible, so yeah. If you have a prompt or idea you want me to write: feel free to tell me in a review and I'll try not to butcher it!

PS. If you want to see some cute androdify-ed versions of the HP characters you can go to my tumblr or deviantart page. [They are under the same username, I think all my stuff is…]

PPS. My favourite is Bill's. [More coming soon] :)

Again: Thanks for all your support!
