~! Okay, plez don't get mad if this doesn't sound like the Hermione we all
know from the books. Plez remember that this is my story and I can write it
how I want. The only reason I'm saying this is becuz I got a flame for my
other story for Hermione being a little different from the way she is in
the books. Plez, I remind you, plez no flames. Thanx!! !~
Chapter 3: Dinner at The Leaky Cauldron
Hermione arrived back at the Leaky Cauldron and rushed up to her room to fill Chloe and Lavender in on her close encounter of almost telling Harry her secret. She burst through the door of their room making Chloe and Lavender almost have a heart attack! "Oh my god Hermione! What's wrong?? What happened? Where's Harry?" Chloe questioned her.
"Well, lets see," she stopped to catch her breath, "Harry is still in the Broomstick shop buying his lightningbolt 4000. You see, he asked me why I had been acting so strange lately and if I told him the truth I would have had to tell him that I love him and I so totally don't want to tell him that. So, I made up the excuse that I was going through some tough times and thought I could look to him for help and then said I didn't think I needed it when I saw the confused look on his face and the said I'd better get going back to you guys. And then I just left and ran back here. Now, I think that this summer is going to become not as fun as it could've been. Darn it!! Why couldn't I have told the truth to the man I love?" Hermione asked herself out loud.
"Well, it does look like you're in some mess. But I think we can fix it later. Right now we need to be getting read for dinner. We've only got a half hour and I want to look really good for Ron seeing as I like him and really want to catch his attention," Lavender said while turning slightly pink in the cheeks.
Hermione and Chloe shared a short laugh and then proceeded on getting ready to have dinner with the guys. Hermione had put on a light, sparkly, blue eye shadow along with dark black mascara, peach lipstick, and a pale brown blush. Chloe had decided on wearing a bright pink eye shadow, mascara, mauve lipstick, and a peach blush. Lavender, of course, wore her metallic lavender eye shadow along with her metallic lavender lipstick, light peach lipstick, and very light lavender mascara and eye liner. With this look, she was almost positive she would catch the attention of Ron.
Meanwhile, Harry had finally returned to the boys' room with his new broomstick in hand. Even with his new Lightningbolt 4000 in hand, he had a grim look on his face. "Uh oh Harry, I know what that look means. So, what happened this time?" Ron asked when he saw the look upon Harry face when he came into the room. He lay his new broom down on his bed and stared off into space for a minute or two before he answered Ron, "You see, Hermione has been acting really strange lately and I was beginning to believe that she loved me too so I asked her. Stupid me actually thought that!" He went to hit himself in the head with his hand but Ron grabbed it before he could, "Thanks Ron. Any ways, she said that she was going through tough times and wanted to look to me for help and comfort but then decided she didn't need to anymore and then left the shop."
"Geez, that's harsh! I mean I've been noticing that too and I was also thinking that she liked you. But now that she said that I really think something is really up/wrong. I think I'll ask Lavender after dinner. But for now, lets just get ready for dinner and worry later," Ron replied to what Harry had just said. So, they got ready for dinner. Washed up, dressed nicer than they were all day, and Harry actually tried to tame his un- tamable hair. Of course, it didn't exactly work the way he wanted it to.
It seemed to be that all six of them were finished getting ready at the same time because they both exited their rooms at the same time when they each thought they were going to have to get each other out of their rooms. "Hey guys. We thought you were going to be in the same predicament that you were in the last time we were planning to go some where but I guess we all ended up being ready on time so could we please head down to get some dinner now?" Lavender relayed as the girls saw the guys exit their room.
"Sure. I'm starving!!!" Ron answered as they started heading down the stairs to enter the dining room of the Leaky Cauldron. This would be this first of many dinners they would be sharing together all summer.
Chloe sat by Andrew while Hermione and Lavender sat by each other and Harry and Ron sat by each other. You see, Chloe and Andrew were going out but of course, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Lavender were just friends so they just didn't sit guy by girl, like Chloe and Andrew. Once everyone sat down, Tom sent someone over so they could order.
After they ordered they went into deep conversation. "So, what do you think we should do this summer? I mean, we have like the entire summer to ourselves and no idea what to do with it," Hermione asked everyone.
Everyone else just sat there with dumb founded looks on their faces. No one had actually thought about what they were going to be doing. Hermione of course, decided that she would tell Harry her feelings in mid- August so it wouldn't be to far from when school starts yet it wouldn't be during where they'd have a harder time getting alone where she could actually tell him.
Meanwhile, Harry was thinking along the same lines. (Harry's POV) I have to tell her before school starts. Otherwise I'll never be able to tell her once school starts. I think I'll wait until sometime in August to tell her. Unless I come up with a better time before then, then I'll tell her then. (Exiting Harry's POV)
You see, it's only the first week of July so both him and Hermione have a long way to go until they confront each other.
While all of this was going on inside Harry and Hermione's heads, they all had their dinners and were ready to eat. Chloe noticed a spaced out look on Hermione's face and just had to ask, "Okay Hermione, now would be the time to come back to Earth from where ever you are. It's time to eat."
"Oh, yeah, sorry bout that. I was just thinking," Hermione quickly said as she was brought back to reality from her daydream about Harry. Although, no one knew what it was she was thinking about and she didn't plan on telling any of them right now. But she did plan on telling the girls when they got back to their rooms after dinner.
It took them a while but they did eventually finish dinner after trying to talk and eat at the same time.
~! In about the 5th chapter Harry and Hermione will express their feelings for each other so hang in there until then. Plez review and remember.no flames!!! Thanx a bunch! !~
