Hermione's Summer! By Aphrodite
First I want to apologize to my Bulgarian reader, I know no one had 42 kids and 22 home in their house. I was just writing and didn't think of everything being realistic.
Thanks to all of you who reviewed! I am sorry it has taken so long for an update but classes and clubs all that good stuff has kept me very busy. Updates will come out ASAP. Thanks!
On with the story! Happy reading!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Chapter 10
On Hermione's way to Percy's room she came upon Fred looking very discouraged. "What's wrong Fred?"
"She loves George, can you believe it? There we were sitting down talking about who could have fixed the potions and she came over and started to confess her love. At first I thought she was talking to me but then she said George's name. And he acted as if he didn't care; he said she wasn't Lavender so he didn't care. Can you believe it he blew her off? And she is like the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Why not me? I mean we are twins for crying out loud, and I am the cuter twin, everyone says so."
"Who Fred? Angelina?"
"Yes, Angelina. I mean I just want her to be happy, and if she would be happiest with George fine but he better not treat her wrong or god so help me."
Fred continued to mumble about George as he climbed the stairs. Hermione turned down the small hallway to Percy's room. Hermione really needed to talk to Percy now, this was bad, very bad. But before she could get to Percy's room she ran into Katie asking whether or not she had seen Percy and where Percy's room was. The last thing Hermione needed was a lovesick girl to deal with so she told her he was down stairs in the kitchen and Katie left without her second question being answered.
"Percy, are you in here?" Hermione pushed open the door to Percy's room. She found Percy twirling around in circles muttering Fred's name. "Percy are you alright?"
Percy finally stopped twirling and looked up at Hermione. "I am fine. Have you seen my darling Fred yet? I was wondering whether or not he wanted to attend a picnic in the forest with me. I would bring along all his favorites of course."
Hermione groaned Percy was acting like a lovesick puppy dog also, and she was getting quite tried of it. "Percy did you read up on love potions before you did the experiment? Because I have been doing some research and this can be very dangerous."
Percy looked at her like she grew an extra head, he may be in love but he knew what he was doing. "Of course I researched love potions before I agreed to the job. Why do you ask?"
"So you don't think it is an important factor that the person can be stuck in love with someone forever? And the fact that if someone takes a love potion without any ones hair in it they must confess their love to the person they truly love before a weeks time or their love becomes pure un- denying hatred? Did you not think that any of these things were important?"
Percy looked shocked, none of the books he read ever mentioned this and he told Hermione so. "I think you have got your potions mixed up. I never read any thing like that and I read 10 to 15 books on the potion. Now stop lying to me. You are just mad that I am no longer in love with you. I have Fred now. Well I didn't attend it to be that way but you are the one who spoke up and declared the couples would be fine."
"Excuse me? Listen Percy I am telling you the truth, I will go get the book and show you if you do not believe me." Hermione was mad, how dare he tell her she was lying, and talk to her like she was some stupid child. She raced down stairs, passing Harry and Ginny on her way. (Harry: Ginny honestly I love you, it is not a lie. Ginny: Harry it is the love potion, please just go away.) She finally reached her and Ginny's room, she raced in grabbed the book off her bed and ran back upstairs. Thankfully she passed no one on the way. When she reached his room she pushed open the door with out knocking. She saw Percy sitting at his desk shaking his head; he looked up when she entered.
"Hermione, I am sorry I was mean to you earlier. Do you find it strange I am in love with my little brother? Something's not right I need to give me. err.everyone the counter potion but it is missing. I had the book with it, and now it's gone and I do not want to love Fred forever. even if he is devilishly handsome and sweat and funny."
Hermione had to stop him; she couldn't take anymore of him talking like that. "I will find the counter potion for you Percy, but do me a favor and tell me who drank whose hair. I need to know. Please."
"But it will ruin the experiment." Percy stated but then saw the cross look on Hermione's face and decided not to argue with her, she was scarier that Professor McGonagall. "Alright you can have it. Wait one second." Percy got up and lifted the side of the bed up and took out the notebook he had earlier that day. He handed it over to Hermione.
"Wow this is interesting, I bet from this right here I can figure out who messed with your potion. Give me a few hours and I will tell you for sure, but it is going to take a few days to find and fix the counter potion."
Percy reluctantly agreed, and Hermione left him when he started to talk about how great and funny Fred was again.
Hermione decided she should look for the counter potion for a while and then figure out who was playing around with the potion. Hermione made her way to Ginny's room recovered all of her books and carried them down stairs to the living room. Mind you this took her 4 or 5 trips but she finally got all of them in the living room around the couch at the far left wall.
Hermione sat down with her books searching through them looking for any sign of a solution to their problem. After over two hours of searching she still had not found anything. She was beginning to get discouraged when Ron walked into the living room. "Hi Hermione."
He was looking at her like he was expecting something. "Hi Ron. Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Don't you have something to tell me? Anything you just have to get out maybe?"
"No, now if you will excuse me I have work to do." Ron face fell. Hermione looked at him crossly, "You look like someone just told you Santa Clause wasn't real."
Ron looked confused, "Who?"
"Honestly Ron you celebrate Christmas and have no idea who Santa is. Why are you looking at me like that, is there something you have to tell me?"
"Well Hermione I . I. well I lo- love to go and play some Quidditch now, Do you know where Harry is?"
"No But I am pretty sure if you find Ginny you will find Harry."
Ron walked away from Hermione feeling disappointed, 'Why doesn't the potion work on Hermione? Did I forget to put my hair in her potion? Grrrrrr why do I have this sudden urgency to run up to Hermione and tell her I love her, this is weird."
Back with our favorite bookworm we find Hermione once again looking through the books, but she couldn't concentrate on her readings. Something was nagging at the back of her mind and she couldn't figure out what it was. She sat the re-reading the same paragraph when it came to her, 'Why isn't Ron acting like he took any of the potion?' Hermione took out the notebook that Percy had given her and looked to see whose hair Ron drank.
'So he got a potion with out hair, no wonder he's not running around here like an idiot. I also got Ron's hair. That must be why he was down here looking like he expected something. But that means he knew who got what hair and that would mean he was the one who.' Hermione shot up like a lighting bolt, she was going to get Ron back for this but first she needed a plan.
He wanted Hermione to be in love with him, fine he was going to get what he wanted but not how he wanted it. But first she was going to have Ginny's help. She ran upstairs to find her friend, d. The books she was looking in for the counter potion lay completely forgotten.
