Opposites Attract
Chapter 4: Interrupted Once More
A/N: Thank you so much for the reviews!
I was downstairs eating breakfast a week after Hermione's first flying lesson. I've been extremely hyper lately, but I have no clue why. It's 6:00 in the morning, and I'm wide awake. Hermione came down, still in her cute little pajamas. She got a bowl and poured herself some cereal.
She yawned, "Can we fly soon so I can be inside when Harry gets here?"
"Yeah, but we are going to work on the Zonko's application tonight, okay?" She nodded.
"Come outside when you're ready," I said. I went outside. I couldn't be around her for to long or I'd want to do something. Not good. I took my broom and flew around clearing my head. The sun wasn't up yet but it was going to be a nice day. After about fifteen minutes, Hermione came outside, carrying Fred's broom. She was wearing a Gryffindor Babe tee shirt with denim shorts that showed off her beautifully long legs. She had tied her smooth sleek hair back in a messy bun type thing. She was hot! I did another loop before landing next to her.
"Okay, you're going to go on your broom today again," I said. She pouted, apparently she liked flying with me. She mounted and hovered next to me.
"Weeee! This is fun!" she did a loop. I was beginning to think she wasn't really scared at the beginning and just wanted to be near me.
"See," I said, "told you so."
"Yeah! Catch me!" She sped off flying around. Having to wake up at 3:00 in the morning for practice wasn't for nothing. I followed her and slowly gained up. She sped through the trees and I lost her, sort of. I found her hanging in the air, oblivious to the fact that I could come right beside her. I flew slowly, so I didn't make any sound.
"Boo!" I screamed in her ear. She jumped and I put my arm protectively around her.
"George, look at the sunrise," she breathed. It was beautiful. The sun had just started to come over the hill. The sky was golden, then orange, then pink, ending with purple.
"It's beautiful," I whispered in her ear. "Just like you." She turned to look at me. We came closer and I leaned my head down. She titled her head and we were so close except-
"HARRY'S HERE!" Ginny yelled, causing us to jump apart. I scowled. I always had to be interrupted didn't I? Hermione scowled too. She actually wanted to kiss me? My heart leapt. I saw Harry come out of the house and run to Ginny. He kissed her. Oh, why couldn't I do that? The walked back inside holding hands. I looked at Hermione.
"Want to go inside?" I asked.
"Sure." We glided down together and put away our brooms. Inside we saw all the Weasleys greeting Harry. I said hi to him briefly.
I leaned over to Hermione, "Can't wait till dinner tomorrow!" She laughed. Harry's birthday and Christmas were the biggest meals of the year.
"Well, Fred and I are going to go. See you tonight," I said to her. She nodded and I disappeared.
~*~
I sighed and laid back on the bed. Fred had to leave for work. I scowled. Humph. I wanted, no needed a job just to prove I was better than him. I was also bored out of my skull, except for when I was with Hermione. Hermione. I needed to kiss her, but we were always interrupted. There had to be a way I could get her alone. A date! Well, not exactly, but close. I would have to set up something very special. I grinned evilly. It would be perfect...
~*~
I had everything set up perfectly. After checking one last time, I went inside. I spread out the job applications and got comfortable on the couch. Hermione came and sat down next to me.
"Hello!"
"Hey! Ready to start?" she asked.
"Actually I have a better plan. Tonight-" I started, but was cut off by Ron.
"Um, Herm can I talk to you for a second?" he asked.
"Okay, but don't call me Herm," she walked out of the room with him. I sat there and scowled. I heard Ron's voice.
"Why not?"
"Because," Hermione said, "you had your chance. Too late now. You blew it."
"Please."
"No. I like someone else," she huffed. My heart got twisted. Who? Me? Hopefully.
"FINE! I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY I ASKED! I'M OBVIOUSLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU! FINE! I DON'T CARE!" Ron yelled.
"GOOD! CUZ I HATE YOU! YOU SELFISH, STUBBORN, IDIOTIC PRAT!" Hermione yelled right back.
"..."
"Can't even think of a good come back, can you?" Hermione walked back in the room. Yay, go Hermione! She sat down and scowled.
"Okay, sorry, where were we?" she asked.
"Hermione! I need help picking out an outfit for my date tomorrow! I NEED your help!" Ginny ran in the room, almost in tears. Hermione looked sympathetic.
"Well, Gin, I was kinda busy-"
"Oh thank you! I knew you'd agree!" Ginny cut in. Great! My perfect night was screwed up. I scowled.
"Um, sure Gin. Can I have 5 minutes?" Hermione asked. Ginny nodded and left.
"I'm so sorry George." Apparently the disappointment showed on my face.
I forced on a smile, "It's okay."
"Tomorrow." I nodded and she hugged me. My heart swelled up. Her hair smelled fruity. She left. I scowled. Why couldn't I do anything with her? Fate was really getting on my nerves. I couldn't stand it anymore. I was ready to do anything. And I mean anything!
