Hi again! And I just want to say thanks to mngolianporkchop! I had just posted the chapter and five minuets later I had a review! I didn't think anyone would read it! You've made my day! So I went and typed up the second chapter for you!

            It was only after Hermione left, and most his anger was gone that realized how much pain he was in. He was angry with Hermione, yet… He tried to think of whatever he could to get Hermione off his mind. Just thinking of her caused him immense pain.

            Ron was still sitting in the common room when the portrait hole opened. It was Harry and Ginny. "Hey Ron!" said Harry noticing something was wrong. "What's up?"

            "Nothing." Ron replied.

            "Oh c'mon Ron! What's wrong?" said Ginny. Ron took a deep breath. They'd find out sooner or later…

"Hermione—er—we um… It's over…"

"You broke up with her? Why?!"

"No Harry, I didn't break up with her…"

"So she—er—broke up with you?"

"Yeah."

            "But why though? I thought you two loved each other! You've been together since the 5th year! What happened?" said Ginny. Ron began to relay the evening to Ginny and Harry.

"You went off over Victor again? Why?! You were her boyfriend! Not Victor."

"Yeah… Well you should have seen her! I simply asked her if she wanted to go for a walk or something and she went off about she had to study, but once she got Victors letter she dropped everything to write back. And she lied to me about it too! She said she was writing to Sirius. Obviously she's hiding something."

"Well why don't you talk to her? I'm sure everything will work out."

"Thanks mate, but it won't. If you would have seen her you would understand. And for the past few weeks, she's been almost avoiding me; acting like she hates me. I don't get it! I just wish I knew what she was writing to Krum about…"

"Well this may sound stupid, but ask her! Talk to her about it. Or if you really want to know write to Victor."

"Oh yeah. That'll be easy. To Victor: Do you still like Hermione? What are you writing to her about? Nice response I'll get."

"What about Hermione?

            Ron was hurt, hurt deeply. He wanted the pain to leave him. He wanted to feel nothing…to feel nothing for Hermione. He wanted desperately to take everything he had ever felt for her back. Then he wouldn't have to feel the pain of losing her.

 "No, I don't want to see her.  I… I wish I had never dated her. And don't you think I'm joking!"

            "Ron, I know you don't mean that! You've always liked Hermione!" said Ginny.

            Oh yes I do mean it! I'm going to bed. See you." Ron stood up and left. He wanted to be alone. Ginny stood up to follow but Harry stopped her. "Give him some time. He'll come around."

            "I hope so. Harry, this is awful! Do you really think they are angry at each other?" Ginny sat back down and rested her head on Harry's shoulder.

"We'll have to wait and see."
