"Ron?" Hermione had just asked him if he liked her and he was speachless, "Ron?" Hermione was getting upset.

Ron's lip quivered like he was going to talk but shut his mouth instead, he wanted to yell yes and kiss her but he couldn't.

"Ronald Weasley, I hate you!" She turned and ran away to the one place that she always went, the library.

Ron stayed frozen until she left and then he got up, angry with himself and took a walk.

"Hey Hermione!" Harry sat down next to her at a table, "Whats wrong? You look upset."

"I am! At your friend!" Hermione turned back to her book and turned a page roughly.

"What did he do this time?"

"Harry!" She cried, "I really like him, and I asked him if he liked me and he looked at me like I was crazy, am I really crazy? Am I crazy to think that he would ever like me?" Hermione closed her book.

"Hermione, your beautiful, smart, witty, your a really great person, and Ron is stupid if he thinks he can find any better." Harry hugged Hermione which made her feel better.

"Thanks Harry," she gently kissed his cheak and got up, "I think I'll go to dinner." She got up and so did Harry.

"Me, too." Harry and Hermione walked to dinner but didn't see Ron there.

"Students, The Halloween Ball we have changed from just a regular old Ball to a Costume Ball, come in your favorite costumes and the couple with the best costume will recive 30 house points each..."

"Hey Hermione," Seamus said and sat across from her.

"Hey Seamus, how are you?"

"Good, Good, you?"

"Fine, I guess, Ron just got me alittle upset," Hermione smiled weakly at him.

"Well, would you like to go to the Ball with me?" Seamus was turning slightly pink and Ron walked in.

Hermione noticed him and looked back at Seamus, "Sure, I'd love to go to the Ball with you." She leaned across the table and kissed his check. Ron sat down next to Seamus and looked at Hermione. Seamus smiled.

"Thank Hermione, we can talk about our costumes later." Seamus smiled and Hermione nodded.

"Ok." Hermione looked at Harry who gave her a disapproving look and she just shrugged him off...
