-----------------------------------------------Chapter 3-----------------------------------------------
On their way back to the common room, Ron and Harry were discussing what Malfoy wanted with Ginny.
"I swear, if he even lays a hand on her…" Ron mumbled angrily.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to do anything, we just need to hang around Ginny more, she'll be fine!" Harry reasoned.
"If only we could without her knowing, come on, you know how Ginny hates it when her elder brothers look out for her, she thinks she can handle everything on her own!" Ron reminded him.
"Yea, I guess that would be a problem, well so what are we going to do Ron? Let Malfoy and his gang do whatever they are trying to do to Ginny?"
"I don't know, we could always use your invisibility cloak, and follow her around" Ron suggested.
"Yea, and be killed by all our teachers for not showing up to class? Or better yet, they'll think we are missing and form some search party…"
"Well what can we do then Harry?"
"Why don't we ask Hermione? She usually has answers to these sorts of things…"
"Oh all right" Ron agreed.
With that the two boys headed to the Hospital Wing to see if miraculously Madame Pomfrey would allow them to even get near Hermione.
After about 10minutes of convincing Madame Pomfrey to enter the Hospital Wing, they finally were forced to resign when she abruptly showed them the way out.
"Well scratch that idea" muttered a very irritated Harry.
"Yea, tell me about it, is it just me or does she get more strict every year?"
"Yup, that's about right, so I guess we are going to have to think of an idea all by our lonesome."
"Uh oh, that can not be good…" Ron said, and Harry laughed at that.
"We haven't messed up that many times have we?"
"Where to begin?" Ron said holding back a laugh.
"Yea, your right, well we are going to have to make an idea anyway!"
After a few minutes of walking around the grounds Ron stopped abruptly and yanked Harry back, which caused Harry to fall onto the ground.
"I GOT IT!!" He said urgently as he yanked Harry up and pulled him into Hagrid's old hut, Hagrid was off on 'important Hogwarts business' from Dumbledore, which he couldn't tell the three-some about.
"Jeez, this better be good Ron," Harry said while dusting the dirt and leaves off himself.
"Oh it is, it is!" Ron exclaimed rubbing his hands together with a glint of mysteriousness apparent in his eyes.
"All right, spill."
"Well I was thinking… now don't get mad Harry, you see, we need to keep an eye on Ginny without her knowing we are doing so, right?" Ron explained.
"Mhmm…"
"Well, actually this is very simple I don't really know why we didn't think of it before…"
"Just say it Ron"
"Well, err, you see, you could umm… ask Ginny to the Fall Dance… and maybe she'd think you just liked her is why you were hanging around her all this time… and… well…"
"Ask Ginny out?? You must have had a little too much butterbeer at Hogsmeade last weekend…"
"No, I'm serious Harry, you know she has a crush on you…"
"I know, but I would feel sort of weird, I mean she is like a sister to me!"
"And you don't want to have her be attacked by Malfoy do you?"
"Of course not, but… what if she actually thinks I like her like that?" Harry pointed out, "And then how would I tell her that I don't like her?"
"Err, well it was just an idea…"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While Harry and Ron were discussing their new plan, back at the 6th grade girl's dorm sat Lavender and Parvati plotting on their revenge on Potter.
"Okay, listen up Parvati, we are going to get back at Potter, and I need your help." Explained Lavender.
"So what's the plan Lavender?"
"Well, we want to make Harry jealous of me some how right?"
"Yeah…"
"That means that I would have to get very close to someone close to him? Right?"
"Yea… "
"And who are his best friends?"
"Of course that's Hermione and… you can't mean Ron?"
"Of COURSE Ron, I think Harry would think I was a tid bit weird if I went out with Hermione, Sometimes Parvati, you don't have much sense."
"But, RON? How would you get him to ever like you?"
"Oh I have my ways" Lavender said mischievously while she and Parvati looked for something for her to wear.
And of course, poor, poor Hermione, sick in the Hospital Wing, has no idea about what her friends are getting themselves into.
