Chapter Fifteen:
Hermione, Daisy and Ron walked slowley down the street towards Hermione's flat, they were only three

blocks away in muggle london and Daisy well-- lets just say Daisy didnt ENJOY muggle london.

"Stupid dirty streets, ugly roads, look at those sad streetlights...EWWW I just stepped on Gum!" Daisy

shrieked and started hopping on one foot.

Hermione covered a giggle and to her shock Ron rolled his eyes.

"I cant stand this place RONALD!" Daisy shouted and was in hysterics. Ron looked at her and smiled.

"Daisy, you should just apparate to your flat then. No one is around and I dont want you unhappy!"

he told her reaching out and stroking her cheek.

"OH RONNIEKINS!" she screeched and threw her arms around him, " You are the sweetest person I know!" and

then she pulled out her wand and apparated.

Hermione let out a small sigh of relief. She didnt want Daisy to be around. She enjoyed just being with Ron

and talking with him and Daisy just--just--Ruined it all. She was too prissy for Hermione's likes.

Lavander and Parvati werent even half as bad as her. And that was pretty bad!

Ron laughed and Hermione caught on to it and soon the both of them were laughing and crying at the same time.

"Daisy...really...doesnt...belong...in the muggle world..." Ron said in between breaths as Hermione giggled more.

"I can't believe Mr. Weasley is letting you marry some one who doesnt like muggle stuff!" she cried still giggling.

Ron stopped laughing at that and Hermione almost smaked her head at how stupid she had been.

There was an akward silence between them and they just stood there, in the middle of the street staring

at each other.
Out of no where there was a loud BOOM of thunder and Rain started pouring down on the two friends.

Ron swore and Hermione looked at him pointidly.

"BLOODY HELL!" he said as the heavy sleets of rain came crashing down on them.

"Ron, dont swear." Hermione said and then giggled. He smiled at her and then they realized that

they were already soaked to the bone.

"Come on Hermione!" Ron yelled and grabbed her hand, pulling her after him. They rushed through the streets of London

and towards Hermione's flat aas the rain beated down on them. There were a few flashes of lightening

and hermione could have sworn that the potholes that were in the street had now become

small lakes. She screamed when lightening struck a tree beside her and it came crashing down,

barely missing her and Ron.

Ron continued pulling her after him so that they could get of the rain and Hermione followed, not

wanting to be outside in this weather.

"Hurry Hermione!" Ron shouted as he held the door to her apartement complex open for her.

"I'm coming Ron, just wait a minute!" she said as she picked up her purse from the ground. She ran

up the steps and followed Ron through the door. They shivered and stood akwardley for a few minutes

not knowing what to do next.
Hermione broke the silence.

"Ron, do you want to come up to my apartement?" she asked looking at him. " I mean, like, just for tea

or something to warm you up... you know?" she asked again looking down at the red plush carpet they were dripping on.

Ron nodded and shrugged his shoulders.

"Sure, what harm could that do. I would be with my favorite girl." he said.

Hermione felt warmth rush over her at that comment. Wouldnt Daisy be his favorite girl? Did

he maybe, just maybe, still love her like she loved him? She shook her head and sighed.

'Yea, right Hermione. Quit dreaming!' she told herself as they took the elevator up the stairs.

Hermione laughed as Ron clung to the elevator walls, waiting for something horrible to happen.

He would never get used to some muggle machines would he? She thought and let out a loud chuckle

as the elevator door opened and Ron flew out, well, more like tumbled and looked arond to make sure

everything was alright.

"Ron, ron, ron," she muttered as she pulled her key out from her jean pocket.

"What?! You never now now-a-days what could happen in an elaminator!" he said looking at her

like he was trying to make a very good point.

"Yes, Ron your right. But it's an elevator, not elaminator." she said as she turned the key and steped inside.

She smiled as Ron plopped onto the couch and she went to the kitchen to make some tea.

She could hear Ron picking up books from the book shelf and muttering to himself.

"What kind of title is that? Too smart....way to smart...boring...hermione's already read it to me...

dont like that,"

Hermione proceeded to go to her room and change into her extra large fluffy pj's until the tea was done.

When she returned to the living room she found Ron staring at a framed photo of her, Ron and Harry.
She sat beside him and handed him his tea.

"I miss him too Hermione." he said as a few silent tears slid down his face and Hermione felt

the old familiar pain of memories coming back to her.

She and Ron hadnt talked about Harry yet. Infact, they were more trying to avoid the subject.

Now, she needed to talk and listen with Ron, they needed to help.

"Oh Ron!" she cried and flung her arms around his neck and starting to sob. Ron hugged her back

and continued talking to her.

"I missed him so much Hermione. And then, after they said you were dead...oh god Hermione! I never

want to even remember. I had lost the two people I loved the most. You were more than my family... you guys were

everything and I just lost it! I couldnt deal for a while... I jusst locked myself in my room and I dont

know how long I was in there till I decided that you COULDNT be dead... I didnt want to lose you too...

I loved you both too much..." he said and Hermione felt her heart breaking.

She hadnt meant to hurt him, she never wanted to hurt him.

"Ron, Im sorry. Im so so sorry." she said and the two of them held each other crying.
