The Loveletter: Chapter 3
"What?!" Half the common room asked.
George pretended to faint. "You're kidding!" Fred said.
"Go see for yourself," Neville said pointing at the portrait of the fat lady.
"Shall we go hun?" Ron said looking to Hermione.
"I think they should have some privacy," Hermione said starting to open a book.
"Hermione!" Ron and Harry said at the same time while dragging her to the portrait.
They went to the transfiguration class. The door was open a crack. Fred and George looked. "Look they're really going at it in there," George said motioning the three to look.
Harry, Ron and Hermione looked through the crack. Professor Snape and McGonagall were in a tight embrace kissing. McGonagall usual tight bun was disheveled and falling down her face. They were on the desk (Snape on top by the way). "This is insane!" Hermione whispered.
"I can't believe it, Snape?" Harry whispered.
Ron wrapped an arm around Hermione's shoulder. "Well dame, they're certainly getting along," he said with a wink.
Hermione stood up suddenly. "Lets go before they see us," she said.
Ron nodded with another wink. They made their way back to the Gryffindor common room. "What happened," the twins best friend Lee asked.
Fred and George went into details. "If they got any further they would have started ripping clothes off!" George said.
Lee's eyes widened. "But Snape?!"
Fred shrugged. "Maybe he's not that bad after all,"
"Love does weird things to people," Ron muttered.
Unfortunatley Fred and George heard that. "So," Fred said nudging Ron with his shoulder. "Who's the girl?"
"What!" Ron said his face turning red involuntary. "What girl!" he said.
"Come on, you don't have to hide it," George said.
Harry raised an eyebrow. "Ron," he said reasonably.
"Harry not you too!" Ron said.
"Ok fine, don't tell us," George said.
The twins and Lee went away and walked off to some corner. Ron sat down in a chair, his face still red.
Hermione was looking through a book of Magical Ailmentss and Afflictions. "What's that for?" Harry said.
"Ron has been acting weird lately," she whispered. "And I'm going to find out why?"
Harry nodded. Ron had been acting weird lately. Harry didn't even think that Ron had ever used the words "dame" or "hun" in his life.

Across the room, Parvati was watching Ron with a dreamy expression on his face. "Hey Parvati, look at the astrological charts, Venus is at its height," Lavender said holding it up.
Parvati sighed. That meant that love was in the air. "Are you still thinking about him?" Lavender asked putting down the chart.
"Oh god he's fine," she replied.
Lavender had a smirk on her face. "I'll take that as a yes," she said.
As an afterthought, she added. "What happened to Harry?"
Parvati dissmised the thought with a wave of his hand, "He's old news," she said. "And he wasn't that good of a dancer."
"Well now's your chance Vati," Lavender said using her nickname for her.
"Nah, now's not the time, I'll make my move tommorow," she said. "I'll watch at a distance for now,"

"Ron do you know anything about the fairy wars?" Harry asked.
The two had
to write a foot long essay about the fairy wars and how it affected the way of
life today. "I was just going to ask you that," Ron replied flipping the pages
of his book Magical History and its Meaning.
"Err…I have no idea," Harry said.
"Where's Hermione when you need her," Ron said.
"I have no idea," Harry said writing a sentence on his parchment.
Hermione had disappeared since the time when she was looking for Ailment or Affliction to explain Ron's weird behaivor. Ron had been acting weird but it right here in the room he was acting like his normal self. Maybe Hermione was making Ron act weird. "How do these wars help society?!" Ron asked increduously. "They give teachers an bloody excuse to give out homework, but I can't write that," he crumbled up a piece of parchment.
He took out
another piece of parchment and started to write. The faires were in a
serious argument on whether the faires should marry their close cousins the
pixies. The fairies were split into three groups, the supports or intermarrige
between the pixies and the faires against intermarrying the pixies and the third
group, the faires who didn't care and stayed neutral throughout the war. Harry
turned a few pages. Eventually the faires did have to intermarry the pixies
and from them the came the little people. For more info check chapter 16…
Harry stopped reading the book. He still didn't get why society benifited from it.
The sound of Neville snores filled the room. Ron stood up from his chair, declared he was taking a walk and walked out of the dorm.

Harry woke up and looked across the room at Ron's bed. He was surprised when there was no one there. "Have you seen Ron?" Harry asked Seamus who was getting up.
"Isn't he in bed?" he said sleepily, rubbing his eyes.
"No," Harry was starting to get worried.
"What about Neville?" Seamus said.
"He's not here!" Seamus said.
Something was seriously going wrong here.
