*****Oh yeah, and italics indicates when someone is thinking to them self.*****
"Hermione, are you alright? You didn't attend any of your classes and I didn't see you at any of the meals today." Ron was trying to get Hermiones attention but she didn't even acknowledge the fact that there was another person in the room. "Please, Hermione, have I done something? Tell me. I love you and want to help you." The last sentence made Hermione break out of her trance after a long period of staring at the fire place. And then, she finally spoke. "You don't love me. Or you won't after I tell you what's wrong." Ron was relieved she was talking to him again. "Yes I do, I really do love you, Hermione. You are the only girl for me, and I want to help you. I would never harm you." Hermiones tears started to well up in her eyes. "Please Ron, don't do this. It only makes it more difficult." Ron had no idea what she was talking about. "Make what difficult? Maybe you are tired. You should rest and then........" But Hermione cut him short. "No Ron. You need to know this. Please, sit down. It will take a while to explain." Hermione saw the look of curiosity on Ron's face. "What's wrong? Are you hurt? Sick? Did someone......" Once again, Hermione cut him off. "Please Ron. Let me tell you the whole story, and then you can a-ask q-questions." Hermiones lip was quivering, causing her to fumble her last two words. And then, Hermione began to tell her story. "Look Ron. I love you. I really do. And you are the best friend I've ever had. Harry is also." Ron couldn't help but ask questions. "But what does Harry have to do with you and me?" Hermione looked straight at Ron. He has to know the truth. "Everything."
"Where are you going with this, Hermione?" Ron looked baffled and Hermione had to tell him. "Please Ron. Let me finish." Ok, here it goes. "Ok, well it started that day that you told me you loved me in the common room, remember?" Ron nodded to show that he remembered. And then she continued. "Well, Harry seemed down that day, and I went to talk to him in his dormitory. I thought that maybe he felt a little awkward about you and me, so I was just going to comfort him." Hermione could see that Ron was still completely clueless. So she continued. "That's when I told him that me and you were dating." This was the hardest part of the story. But he has to know, she told herself. "Ron...........you need to know the truth. I.....I......" I shouldn't feel ashamed. I love Harry and he is the only one for me. Wait, but maybe Draco is. That's when Hermione realized that she didn't know the whole story herself. Why should I tell Ron If I don't even know what's going on? Hermione knew what she would do. "I.........I love you!" She said wrapping her arms around him. Ron returned the hug but wasn't really sure where this was going. "Is this all you had to tell me?" I can tell him the truth later when i've figured things out. "Yes….That's all"
As Hermione hugged away her thoughts, Draco sat in the Slytherin common room, treating himself to a few chocolate frogs for his duties today. He had finally reached his goal. He had stolen the girl away from the enemy. He was now admiring himself in the common rooms great mirror. "Oh Draco, don't think so highly of yourself." Draco best friend, Blaise, was now descending the stairs from the girls dormitories. Draco turned towards her and gave her his trademark smirk. "My dear friend Blaise, Have you come down here to try and shag me again?" Blaise laughed at his narcissism. "Not unless your dreaming." Draco laughed also. He couldn't help it. He was thinking of the look on Potters face when he caught him and Hermione together. "So, what's the celebration for?" She was eyeing the empty Chocolate Frog packs laying on the ground. "Well, if you must know, I've reached my goal." Blaise needed no explanation. She already knew what it was. "So, you've finally stole the girl away?" Draco was once again admiring himself. "Yes." He said arrogantly. "I have."
Meanwhile, Harry decided to retreat to the library. He didn't really feel being around anyone, and he didn't want to run into Draco, and he knows that Draco never comes here (it shows on his IQ). How could I have been so stupid? I thought that she actually loved me, but now I know the truth. As he searched the library, trying to get his mind off of everything, his mind turned against him. One side of his mind was thinking You still love her, even though you don't want to admit it. She's your everything. You can't let her just slip away. The other side of his mind was thinking Are you kidding? She cheated on you. She doesn't love you! You were just a toy in her game. "STOP!" Harry screamed. He couldn't even think for himself anymore. "Okay calm down. Its over and done with. Just stop thinking about it." As he went to the back of the library at his usual spot, he thought everything would be ok. But there was someone already there.
"Good evening, Harry."
