Pls read and review. I really need to know if this sux or not.



The whole common room stared at the three girls, unsure as to how to react. Hermione didn't look very pleased or angry. She was caught between fear and shock. She began to walk forward, slowly taking in all the decorations around her. Her house-mates parted around her, as though leading her into the center of the room. Where two boys stood, nervous as could be. Harry ran a hand through his hair. Ron just stood facing Hermione, his expression unreadable.

Hermione stared back at them. She was at a complete loss. It looked like not a single person was going to make a move. People started to fidget, worried by the looks on th efaces of the trio. Harry, unable to take it anymore, took a deep breath and opened his mouth.

And that very moment, the Weasley twins decided they had enough. George nudged Fred. Moving quickly, they grabbed her and threw her into the air, yelling " Happy Birthday Hermy!"

That seemed to wake everyone up and all joined in the cheers, moving towards Hermione. Hermione who was quite angry at first to be thrown around like a bludger, suddenly went pink as everyone began crowding around her shaking her hand( once she was on the floor) and the girls kissing her cheeks and wishing her. What really confused her at that point was how sincere everyone was.

She just stood numbly, unable to process everthing in. A few days ago half the Gryffindor population wouldn't talk to her and now the entire group was practically suffocating her with their sincere words.

" Happy Birthday Hermione" squealed Ginny squeezing the breath out of Hermione.
"Weren't you surprised? Everyone pitched in! We wanted this to be the best surprise party ever!"

Hermione blinked. Everyone had done this for her? Feeling tears star, she hugged Ginny bac fiercely. Knowing exactly what was going on, Ginny held on to her friend tightly. Smiling with happy tears in her eyes, Hermione began to return the wishes and thanking all the people around her. It became noiser as everyone tried to get their two cents in. Hermione, giggled. This was just too good to be true.

She moved around still holding Ginny's hand. Seamus and Neville smiled sheepishly at her. " Happy birthday Hermione. Sorry for all the stuff. We just didn't want you to find out."

Hermione smiled back at them." Thanks guys." That meant that everyone had just been avoiding her because they were planning the party! They didn't hate her! That meant that Harry and Ron....

Just as she thought about this, She suddenly realised that she was standing in fron of them again. Their expressions had not changed yet. They still looked at her. Fear, confusion and guilt were splayed across their faces.

" It was them who did everything. They organized the whole thing and paid for everything themselves." Ginny murmured in her ear.Still Hermione did nothing. The trio continued to stare at each other, causing the common room to quieten. The quarrels of the three was well known to the entire Gryffindor crowd and everyone knew how serious it was to have them not talking to each other. They fell silent again, unable and unwilling to break the unvelievable tension between Hermione and her best friends.

She herself couldn't believe what as happening. Just looking there at her two friends who she had missed terribly, she felt her eyes start ot tear up again. Both of the guys also began to get wet eyes as still no one made any move.

Finally she couldn't stand it anymore. Bawling, she ran towards Ron and Harry throwing her arms around them. They held on to her as the whole common room once again erupted in cheers.

Sobbing, she tried to speak only to be hugged tightly by Harry. She cried harder, feeling him hold her so hard. Pulling apart from him, they both tried to speak. " Harry-"
" I am sorry Herm-". Both stopped and smiled at each other. Words weren't really necessary by this time. Holding his hand and squeezing it, she smiled feeling as though her heart would explode with joy.

Suddenly she felt a tapping at her back. Turning around, she came face to face with Ron Weasley.
