Chapter six

Ron noticed that Hermione seemed nervous but happy all the time. Not that it was a bad thing of course, he loved to see Hermione smile, but it was quite unusual. Ron also noticed that Hermione and Draco seemed to keep eye contact with each other almost 24/7. This time, Ron decided to become even more thorough with his spying. But first, he needed a little something from Harry.

"Harry, are you gonna use your invisibility cloak tonight?" Ron asked.

Harry looked at him suspiciously from his bed. "What on earth do you need it for?"

"Oh, nothing." Ron said. "I just wanted to uh…"

"You're spying on Hermione aren't you?" Harry grinned. Ron opened his mouth to explain but Harry cut him off. "Don't even try to explain, ok Ron because anyone, even Crabbe and Goyle, can tell how obsessed you are about her."

"Bu-" Ron began again but Harry merely smiled and said, "Yes you can borrow my cloak, just as long as you don't get into any trouble now."

"Of course not!" Ron assured him.

"D'you want me to come with you?" Harry asked.

"N – no I'll be fine don't worry about a thing." Ron said. He wanted to find out about what Hermione was doing by himself.

~ * ~ * ~ *

"Be careful out there, Ron!" Ginny said worriedly. "If that Malfoy git or any of the other prefects caught you, you'll be cleaning dirty cauldrons for weeks!"

"Don't worry about me, Ginny. I'll do fine." Ron said confidently. "I just need to find out what she's doing."

"But don't you think it's kinda wrong of us to go snooping around her business like this?" Ginny said. "I mean, she has the right to keep secrets from us you know."

"Well not from me." Ron said firmly. "Hermione and I share a different relationship. Something you won't understand."

"Ron, I kinda agree with Ginny actually." Harry told him. "I mean, I don't mean to burst your bubble or disappoint you or anything, but are you positively sure that Hermione likes you back?"

"What does that have to do with anything?" Ron demanded.

"I mean, maybe she might be seeing another bloke but she hasn't told us." Harry thought. "Or maybe-"

"Are you saying that Hermione is a lesbian?" Ron yelled.

"NO I'm not saying that!" Harry answered quickly. "I'm just saying…"

"He doesn't want your feelings to get hurt." Ginny finished for him. She looked at Ron with kind, worried eyes. "Be careful out there ok. Are you sure you don't want us to come with you?"

"Yes." Ron answered. He suddenly felt angry with Harry and Ginny. They don't have confidence in me, Ron thought. They think I won't make it. They think I'm not strong enough to do this. Well I'll prove them wrong! "It'll be faster if I go alone and I don't wanna get you guys into trouble. Bye."

Ron sneaked outside the Gryffindor tower and put on the cloak. He went down the stairs and saw the Blood Baron, the Slytherin ghost, pass bye. He walked around and searched for Hermione. He saw Lavander and Susan Bones patrolling one of the hallways.

"Did you hear something?" Susan asked. She looked around carefully.

"No." Lavender said. She was applying some lipstick and was gazing at her reflection through her compact. "You're imagining things again, Susan. Nobody's here. Come on, let's search the other hallway."

"I'm pretty sure I heard something…" Susan said doubtfully but she followed after Lavender. Ron sighed and looked through the classroom doors. They were all dark and empty. Where's Hermione? Ron thought. Suddenly, he saw a figure, a girl, running in the hallway. There she is! Ron thought. Hermione was carrying a lantern and was looking around as if to make sure nobody was following her. Where's she going? Ron wondered. He decided to follow her.

After about 10 minutes of walking, Ron felt his legs get tired. Is Hermione trying to lose weight or something? This is getting pretty exhausting…Then, Hermione carefully opened a classroom door at the end of the hallway. Ron curiously tiptoed and peered in the room. Hermione placed her lantern on a table and sat down on the floor. What in bloody hell is she doing in here? Ron asked himself. Hermione stood up from the table and began walking back and forth in the classroom. She started humming a song Ron didn't recognize.

"What on earth am I doing here, waiting for him?" Hermione asked herself loudly. She let out an exasperated sigh. Who's him? Ron asked himself. Hermione leaned back against the wall and started sliding down. After a few minutes, she stood up and took her lantern. Ron stepped out of the way as she walked to the door, let out another sigh, and stepped outside. Ron followed her swiftly. For the rest of the night, Hermione searched around the castle and made sure nobody was sneaking out. Wow, Ron thought. I'm so glad Hermione's head girl. She does an extremely good job. Eventually, Hermione started climbing up the stairs to go back to her quarters. She still had that disappointed look on her face. Ron had the urge to go inside the room and follow her but he didn't. He could've done it very easily but he controlled himself and went back to the Gryffindor room.

As Ron went down the stairs, he slipped and went tumbling down. Unfortunately, Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris, were around.

"Who's there?" Filch demanded. "I thought these bloody students would learn their lesson about not sneaking out during the night!"

Mrs. Norris hissed at Ron. Filch came and walked to his cat. "There's nobody there Mrs. Norris. I think the bloody prats went that way. Let's go!"

Mrs. Norris eyed Ron, then followed her master. Ron let out a sigh of relief and hurried back to the common room. But there was still one question that he couldn't answer…who was Hermione waiting for?

~ * ~ * ~ *

Hermione slowly went to her dorm. She felt extremely disappointed. She waited for Draco in the classroom as usual but Draco didn't show up. I wonder what happened, maybe he was busy, Hermione thought. I know he wouldn't do it on purpose…Hermione continued on her way to her room but she had a strange feeling that someone was following her. When she went to her room, she quickly changed into her pajamas and rested her head on her pillow. Draco better have an explanation for me tomorrow…
