Chapter 2: If Truth Be Told
Harry looked around as he breathed in the wonderful smell of pancakes & eggs from earlier. Ron smiled at his friend as he saw him look around. Just then, Hermione walked in with Ginny.
"Harry! How are you?" She asked as she ran up & gave him a hug. Harry hugged her back tightly. He missed her deeply. He missed Ron to, but no as much as Hermione. When they let go, Harry & Hermione saw Ron & Ginny smiling at each other with a glint in their eyes.
"Come on, Harry!" Ron said as started to drag Harry's trunk across the floor & toured the stairs. Harry picked up Hedwig's cage & followed Ron. Hermione want back to Ginny, whispered in her ear & started giggling. Harry rolled his eyes & Ron started to chuckle.
"What's so funny, Ron?" Harry asked.
"You know." Ron breathed heavily as he trudged up the stairs.
"No, I don't." Harry replied as he walked into Ron's bright orange room.
"Harry! How can you be so thick?" Ron stated as he dropped Harry's trunk on the floor.
Harry just stared at Ron. "What do you mean?" Harry asked. Ron just shook his head smiling. "If it has anything to do with Hermione, dr."
"Hello! Earth to Harry! She likes you!" His smile got wider & wider. "And, if truth be told, I'd say." But Harry cut him off.
"Don't say I like Hermione!" He said a little loudly.
"You said it! I didn't." Ron smiled & sat on his bed.
~*~Meanwhile, In Ginny's room~*~
"You like him, don't you!?" Ginny asked excitedly.
"Your brother?" Hermione asked & broke into a fit of giggles.
"No, no. Harry!" Ginny smiled.
Hermione's eyes got wide. "Oh! No! He's just my friend!"
"That's how the best relationships start!" Ginny stated matter of factly.
"Whatever, Ginny!" Hermione said.
"I'd say he likes you to Herm!" Ginny said, her smile growing wider & wider.
"He doesn't like me! He likes Cho." Hermione growled under her breathe.
"Not by the way he was hugging & looking at you!" Ginny stated.
"Drop it!" Hermione said because she heard footsteps coming down the stairs. There was a knock at the door. Before Ginny could say anything, Ron walked right in.
"Ronald!" Ginny yelled. Hermione & Harry started laughing.
"What! At least I knocked!" He yelled back. Ginny got up, walked to her door, pushed Ron making him fall to the ground, & walked down stairs.
~*~Later at dinner~*~
Everyone was there. Even Charlie, Bill, & Penelope Clearwater. It was a delicious dinner. Harry had trouble keeping his eyes off Hermione. She was wearing a beautiful sundress with red & orange flowers. If truth be told, he DID like Hermione. But he couldn't tell her that. It would ruin their friendship. Hermione was thinking the same thing. Just then, Percy stood up, cleared his throat, & grabbed Penelope's hand.
"Excuse me!" He waited for the talking to die down. "Thank you! Now, I have an announcement to make." He turned & smiled at Penelope. "Penelope & I are engaged!" He smiled as everyone started applauding.
"Congratulations!" Cried Mrs. Weasley giving Percy & Penelope a hug. Hermione had also run up to Penelope & gave her a hug. Ron was sitting there laughing. Hermione came back & sat down. She leaned across the table & hit Ron across the head.
"Hey! What was that for!" Ron said.
"To shut up! Your brother just announced his engagement & you sitting here laughing! What is your problem?" Hermione said.
"It's about time, that's all. They've been going out for 3 years! I thought Percy was just going to date her forever. I never, in my wildest dreams, thought Percy would be able to make a commitment like this!" Ron stated but started laughing again. Hermione just rolled her eyes & smiled at Harry.
~*~ End of chapter 2! H/Hr romance will start soon. I just wanted to announce Percy & Penelope's engagement before it started. Chapter 3 will be up soon! Until then, review! Constructive criticism is welcome! ~*~
