Elana was extremely happy over the next few days because she was going out with Ron. Hermione was also very happy for her, but knew Ron wasn't to crazy for her. She kept hoping Ron wouldn't dump Elana because she knew how much Elana liked Ron.
On Saturday, Hermione and Ron were up early again and they were talking in the common room.
"I still don't understand the Astronomy homework, how are you supposed to find Ursa Major?" Ron said. He was still confused by the constellations.
"It's so easy," Hermione said, "First you find Polaris, you can find that right?"
"Yeah, it's right there," he said pointing to it.
"Yup, that's right, now can you see Ursa Minor?"
"Yeah, I already labeled that, see?"
"Oh, you just can't find Ursa Major?"
"Yes," Ron said.
"Oh, Ursa Minor empties into Ursa Major," Hermione explained, "and it's also the same shape as Ursa Minor."
"Oh, so this is Ursa Major," Ron said pointing to it.
"Yup, that's it," Hermione said.
"Oh, this is Orion, right."
"Yup, where's Sirius?"
"Right there," Ron said pointing to Orion's dog.
"That's right, and now you just have to name some of the stars on the constellations."
"Okay, that one on Orion I know is Betelgeuse, and that's Rigel I think," Ron said.
"Very good, now what are the pointer stars on Ursa Major?" Hermione asked.
"That's Dubhe and that's Merak," Ron said hoping they were right.
"Very good Ron, see that wasn't to hard was it?"
"Not with you helping me," Ron said, "want to go for a walk?"
"Um, it's snowing Ron," Hermione said.
"It is? Oh yeah, I guess I forgot, well I guess we shouldn't go for a walk then," he said sadly.
"Why did you want to go for a walk?" Hermione asked.
"Uh, no reason," he said quickly.
"Oh, do you need help with any other class?"
"Yeah."
"Which one?" Hermione asked.
"All of them."
"Everyone?"
"No, I mean I don't understand the uh, oh yeah the Transfiguration," he said.
"Oh, what don't you understand?"
"I don't know!" he yelled.
"What? Why are you yelling? Calm down Ron," Hermione said.
"Oh, sorry, I got kinda nutso there."
"It's okay."
"Okay, Hermione, we need to talk," Ron said.
"Okay what about?"
"Just something."
"Well, how are we supposed to talk about something if I don't know what you want to talk about?" Hermione asked.
"Oh, how I wish we could go on a walk, it's much easier to talk when you know no one's listening."
"No one's here," Hermione said.
"Yeah, but someone could come down the stairs at any minute now," he said.
"Ron, it's 6:30, no one would be crazy to come down at 6:30 except for us, and anyway, we would hear someone coming down the stairs if they did."
"I guess you're right," Ron said.
"So, what did you want to tell me?" Hermione asked anxiously.
"Um, you probably already know but, what I wanted to say that I have had a crush on you since our 3rd year and I really want to go out with you, but as usual, Harry gets to you before I do," Ron said feeling happy to have gotten those words out of his mouth, "sorry, but I had to tell someone," he added.
"Oh, it's okay, I understand how you feel, and I also have to tell you that I've had a crush on you since our 5th year. Oh, I feel your pain now, Harry seems to beat you at everything, oh poor thing."
"Wow, you used to like me?" Ron asked amazed.
"I sure did, and I still do," Hermione said.
"You do? Then how come you're dating Harry and not me?" Ron asked anxiously awaiting the answer.
"Because, Harry asked me before you did, and I couldn't just say no to him because then he would hate me, I only really liked him as a friend until we kiss..."
"What! He kissed you? No, he promised me he wouldn't, oh that liar I hate him so much!" Ron said furiously, "so now you also like him?"
"Yeah, but I like you much more," Hermione said wishing she hadn't.
"Oh, really, wait till I tell Harry that," he said.
"Ron, you can't," Hermione said.
"Why not?"
"Because it would hurt his feelings."
"So?"
"I don't want you to hurt his feelings," Hermione said.
"You don't think he's hurt my feelings enough?"
"I know you are hurt and you want to go out with me, but another reason is Elana."
"What about her?"
"We're best friends, and she likes you, and if I just took you away from her she'd hate me," Hermione explained.
"Well, Harry basically did that to me!" Ron yelled.
"Yeah, and now you hate each other!" Hermione yelled back.
"Please go out with me! You don't know how much I like you," Ron said pleading. His offer was very tempting, but Hermione couldn't say yes.
"I'm so sorry Ron, but I can't," she said.
"Okay, if you won't listen this way then I'll just have to do it the way Harry did it," Ron said.
"How'd Harry do it?" Hermione asked.
"Like this," Ron said and he bent over and kissed her on the lips. She tried to pull away, but she couldn't. She now started to like Ron more then before. She kissed him back and felt really bad about what she was doing to Elana. They kissed for the few minutes and then Ron asked her, "now will you go out with me?"
"Yes I will," Hermione said and she kissed him again. A few more minutes passed and they pulled apart again.
"So, am I a better kisser then Harry?" Ron asked.
"To be honest, you're much better," Hermione said, "it seems like you've had practice.
"Well, I guess I have."
"You have?" Hermione asked.
"Yup, well you know when I went to the Ravenclaw common room with Lisa, we kinda, well let's just say my kissing skills improved a lot!" he said.
"Oh, why did you go out with Lisa?"
"Mostly just to get you jealous," Ron confessed.
"As I thought," Hermione said.
"Well, you were right," Ron said, "oh and guess this means you're breaking up with Harry."
"Yeah, and you're breaking up with Elana, the poor girl," Hermione said.
"Yup, now I got you babe."
"Uh, yeah," Hermione said. Ron then kissed Hermione and she kissed him back again and they spent the next 30 minutes making out.
After breakfast Ron and Hermione decided to tell Harry and Elana the news. Ron was smiling and Hermione knuged him and told him to stop. The four of them were sitting in the common room and Ron started talking.
"The reason we are here is to say that Hermione and I are going out, so Elana and I must break up and Harry and Hermione are breaking up." Elana then ran up the steps to the girls dorm with tears in her eyes. Hermione ran up behind her and left Ron and Harry to fight.
"Go away!" Elana yelled when she saw Hermione behind her.
"Elana, I'm sorry!" Hermione said.
"Shut up, get out of here," Elana screamed.
"Sorry!"
"I thought you were my friend!" Elana sobbed.
"I am," Hermione said.
"Then why did you steel Ron from me?"
"I didn't, he didn't even like you, he kept begging me to go out with him and I knew it was wrong, but I did anyway, I'm so sorry Elana!"
"He didn't like me?" Elana said sadly.
"No, I'm sorry, he begged me and then he kissed me and I tried to pull away, but I couldn't and then he asked me out and I said yes. I shouldn't have, I'm really sorry, please forgive Elana, you're my best friend and I don't want you to hate me."
"Hermione, you're my best friend too, but when I came here I thought people were nicer then the people at Durmstrang."
"I'm sorry Elana, we are different, I didn't want to steel Ron from you, but I really liked him and he probably would have dumped you anyway, he didn't really like you."
"I understand, I guess I will forgive you, do you think Ron will ever like me?" Elana asked hopefully.
"I think he probably will by the end of the year," Hermione said.
"Really? I hope he does."
"He probably will."
"Oh, Hermione, I'm sorry I got mad at you.'
"Don't be, I deserve to be mad at," Hermione said.
"No you don't,' Elana said.
***
Okay, woah! sorry Elana!!! Ron will like you soon I promise, just let him go out with Hermione first okay? Please don't kill me in school tomorrow! Anyway I'm sure some of you will be happy and others of you will be hunting me down. Okay, don't worry, Harry will get back with Hermione because I have a promise with someone (Lana Weasley) so I can't make this a r/h story. Sorry! Please review.
