Hey, everybody! Sorry it took so long to get this part up. Thanks for the
reviews on Part 2! This was written during Chemistry so hopefully it will
entertain you more then my teacher's lecture did me! I guess I was thinking
more of a different type of Chemistry ;) …

"Ron! Hey, Ron!" Hermione called down
the beach, jogging to catch up with her disgrumpled friend. She tapped him
lightly on the shoulder.
"What?" he growled turning around, "
Oh, hi Hermione…" his voice softening.
"Are you okay?" she asked concerned
about Ron's earlier outburst toward Harry and Ginny, "Harry explained
everything if you would have just listened! He was just about to dunk
her when we came up…What were you thinking…no, wait, I don't think I want to
know…" Hermione's voice was cut off suddenly when Ron placed his hand over her
mouth. She didn't realize they were standing that close. Her eyes grew wide in
surprise until she saw Harry and Ginny walking their way.
"Quiet!" Ron mouthed. His hand grasped
hers and pulled them quickly to a concealed spot behind a nearby sand dune.
"We can't spy…" Hermione hissed only
to find her mouth covered again. " This is wrong, Ron…" she tried again in a
muffled voice. Ron shushed her again, this time because her breath tickled his
hand. Hermione gave a resigned sigh, "Why should I do what he says." she
thought to herself, "Poor Ginny and Harry! We shouldn't be doing this…Hey,
Ron's got a nice hand, strong and large, the kind that could swallow up my hand
entirely…Woah, there Hermione!…where did that come from…this is
Ron!...but still!"
Meanwhile, Ginny and Harry were
heading straight toward the only sand dune with eyes and ears. Both had bright
crimson faces and were avoiding looking at each other.
"Umm, I'm sorry about...well, You
Know,…well, I didn't mean to, I mean, well, I'm sorry!" Harry said, his voice
cracking mid-sentence. He stopped walking and took a step toward her.
"It's alright," Ginny replied shaking her head, "You didn't mean it that way…" A lock of her red hair fell onto her face. Both were surprised when Harry's hand reached out and tucked it back behind her ear. They remained that way, his hand cupping her face, for a few minutes, both too stunned, not to mention unwilling, to move.
Ron's face held a stony glare as he
looked on at his best friend and little sister starring into each other's eyes.
Hermione's restraining hand gripping Ron on the shoulder was the only thing
keeping him from giving them away. He turned to face her.
"Let them be," her eyes telegraphed to
him pleadingly. Ron, with a sigh, gave in to her look. He wasn't to happy about
it, but if Hermione wanted him too, he would give them a chance.
"You'd better not break her heart,
buddy, or God help me, I'll do worse to you then the Dark Lord!" Ron muttered
under his breath as he allowed Hermione to lead him back to their beach house.
