A/N: Wow, this is getting pretty long isn't it?! Ok, so, it's not that long but I haven't even gotten to the game and I'm on the third chapter already. This chapter should be pretty short. I hope you like it. I guess it isn't very important to the story but hey, it's cute. At least give me credit for that!! Please review!! I'll try to get the next chapter out ASAP. Btw, the title isn't very good because there is only one apology and it isn't a very apologetic apology. You'll see…it was the only thing I could think of!!

Disclaimer: I'm sick of doing these, just look at the other chapter. It's the same!! And please don't sue me!

Setting: Ginny's room again and a bit of Ron's living room.

Summary: Ron comes to tell Hermione that he wants her to play truth or dare with them. He has no clue what the game is about and he doesn't know what he's getting himself into. Hermione's skeptical (isn't she always??) and he tries something different.

Characters: Ron and Hermione mostly. Other characters come later.

Pairings: See first chapter…they should be obvious anyway.

Chapter 3

Accepted Apologies

"Who is it?" Ron heard Hermione call from inside. Ron didn't answer, knowing she wouldn't let him in if he did. He slowly opened the door to find Hermione lying on the extra bed that had been brought in, reading. Ron kept his smile in check. He didn't want to act like a fool and give himself away yet. Hermione looked up and, seeing Ron, frowned at him.

"I never said you could come in." She told him stubbornly, sitting up and closing her book.

"I know. You wouldn't have let me come in if I had." Ron told her, sitting on a chair nearby.

"You deserve that type of treatment. I don't feel like talking to you if it will involve me getting into another fight. I'm sick of arguing with you." Hermione looked away and didn't look back until Ron said something that shocked her.

"I know I would have deserved it and I'm sorry I make you so angry all the time." Hermione just stared.

"What?" She couldn't believe that he was apologizing.

"You're right. I'm wrong. The point is, I'm bored and I will not play a muggle game with out my best friend, there to make a fool out of herself along with me." Ron told her sternly, though he had a smile on his face. Hermione smiled in spite of the fact that she was still angry with him.

"Which game is it?" She asked.

"I won't tell you unless you promise you will play it with us. I'm not even sure how to play anyway because I've never even heard of it but I'm sure you'll know what it is. So, what's your choice? Are you coming or are you going to sit up here in this room all day reading your life away?"

"Very funny Ron."

"Well, answer. Which one is it?" Ron pestered again.

Hermione got an idea and she gave Ron an evil grin. "Maybe I just won't answer."

"What? You can't just not answer! Do you want me to have to carry you down those steps?" Ron suggested jokingly. Hermione's eyes lit up for the briefest of seconds before she shook her head and got up.

"Fine. I'll go. But the only reason I'm going is because I'm afraid of heights and if you carried me, I'd be pretty far off the ground." With that, she left the room, shortly followed by a smiling Ron.

A/N: Well, I told you it was short. I'm currently writing the next chapter. That is the one where they will actually play the game. Ok…seeya next chapter!! And thanks to those people who have reviewed!!!
