THE COMMON ROOM

Ron paused for a short moment and then began to walk again. He walked slowly and touched Hermione's shoulder. Hermione jumped about an inch or so. "Ron, you startled me. What are you still doing up?" she replied. "Funny I was just about to ask you the same question." Said Ron. "I couldn't sleep, and you?" she replied. "Same," said Ron sitting next to her in front of the fire," tell me, what was the deal with you and Draco today?" "Well lets see, oh, Krum and I were coming back to Griffindor tower from the library when Draco came out from the corner and put Krum unconscious. If you wouldn't had come I could have been hurt right now." "What about you wand?" he asked. " That's the reason I was coming back. I had left in such a hurry I forgot it in my room. Thanks for saving me." "Uh, It was no problem. Ron turned red, but Hermione didn't notice since the only source of light was coming from the fireplace. "Hermione," Ron broke the silence, " We need to talk." "Sure Ron what is it?" "Well, never mind." "Ron, what is it?" she asked again. Ron felt really foolish trying to tell Hermione the truth. He began to search for an answer to what he began to say. "Well, you see, I'm scared of the dark, can you accompany me to the kitchen to get some thing to drink?" Ron stated, feeling even more foolish than before. "Ron, we aren't allowed out o four common room at night" she said. "I've got Harry's invisibility cloak." He quickly replied. Uncertainly she said, "I don't think is a good idea, you go, I think ill go to bed." She got up and walked towards the stairs and turned and said, "Good night, Ron, and thanks again." "Good night, Hermione, and it was no problem." He said smiling. Once Hermione left the room, he laid back on the couch and sighed. He didn't realize when he went to sleep but it wasn't long before, "Ron wake up!" said a voice that was no other than his best friend, Harry.
