Hermione was kind of shocked, but at the same time happy to see who was at
the portrait. It was all her best friends, Ron, Ginny, and even Harry, and
they were holding plates, and plates of food. All of which looked mighty
delicious.
"Just thought you could have a really nice dinner." Ginny said with a smile.
"Oh my gosh! Thank you guys!" Hermione was so happy to see them.
"Ummm, Hermione we're glad your better, and glad that your happy to see us. But could you let us in, and put down the plates...They look ever so good, and I would really really like to try the food." Ron said while he was staring at the food.
"Oh! Of course sorry!" Hermione let them in and they placed the plates onto the coffee table, which was already cleared of books, thanks to Draco.
Everyone took a seat on the couches. Hermione sat back down next to Draco, an Ginny sat next to her on one couch. Harry, and Ron were sitting on the couch across from them. They all grabbed plates and began to dig in.
There was chicken, beef, soup pratically everything! You name it they had it! There were desserts and candies! It was absolutely wonderful! Ron was in heaven! He just began to pig out like crazy. They ate in silence for some moments until Ginny spoke up.
" So Draco...how are you feeling? You seem to look a little bit better." She was looking at him and Draco was shocked that she actually spoke to him in a civil way.
" Oh, I'm fine. All I have are some cuts and bruises as you can see." Draco just looked down at his plate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco began to talk to Hermione mentally.
'Hermione..this is kind of weird. I feel odd eating with your friends. Maybe I should leave..'
'No! This is a perfect time to discuss our little situation with Harry.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hermione stopped eating and looked up to see Harry.
Harry noticed Hermione looking at him so he turned to look at her.
"Look..Hermione. I'm...I'm sorry for acting the way I did before. But it was just really shocking and it hurt like hell to see you kissing Malfoy." Harry looked away from Hermione.
" Harry, I'm sorry you had to find out that way. I was going to tell you later that day. We're still best friends right?" Hermione asked sweetly, and put her puppy dog face on.
" Of course. Why do you always do that face!!!!! You know we can't say no to that face!!!" Harry was frustrated 'cause Hermione would do the puppy dog face to make them say yes to something.
" She does that to you too!" Draco just popped into the conversation out of nowhere.
Hermione and Ginny giggled.
" YEA! It's like some kind of power girls' have! It's absolutely evil!" Harry said but was kind of happier now. He hadn't really noticed that he was ACUTALLY having a conversation with Malfoy.
" Yea I know what you mean! Ginny always does that to me when she wants something from me!" Ron added in, even though his mouth was stuffed with food.
"Ron! Don't talk while your eating. You don't want to choke again now do you?" Hermione said with a giggle.
Ron just stuck out his tongue, and revealed chewed up food to his friends.
" RON! That's disgusting!" Ginny cried out.
Draco and Harry just laughed at how Hermione, and Ginny were disgusted with the sight.
An hour had passed, and they all got along they finished eating. Everything was going great. They shared a bunch of laughs, and recalled a whole bunch of funny memories. Hermione had told Ginny what she did to Harry when they were playing volleyball. Ginny laughed hysterically at the thought of Harry getting hit in the balls.
"And I thought Quidditch was a rough game." They all laughed.
"Hey! I wasn't paying attention! It was suppose to go to Ron! Not me!" They all laughed again.
After the laughter died down. Ron decided it was time to tell them about him.
" Hey you guys..I need to tell you something." Ron looked down.
" What is it?" Harry asked.
" Well.. I'mahomosexual" Ron said fast. Draco just laid his head on a pillow.
" I'm sorry I didn't quite catch that..You're what?" Hermione said.
" I'm gay..." Everyone's facial expression changed from confused to shocked. Everyone's except for Draco's since he was already aware of that. Harry felt a little awkward and scooted away from Ron a little.
" Oh" was all they said.
" You guys don't hate me do you?" Ron said sadly..
"NO! Of course not!" Hermione said quickly.
"You're my big bro! Now we can talk about guys together!!" Ginny seemed to be really happy.
" Don't worry Ron. We'll always be the best of friends for life..just one thing. You don't like me do you?" Harry said hesitantly.
" Oh dear no! You're my best friend!" Ron was now happy. He was glad his friends took it well. Hermione and Ginny ran over to Ron and gave him a big hug.
" Okay..just checking. Draco...you don't seem to be shocked." Harry looked at Draco. It was the first time Harry had used his name.
"Um.err.well." Draco wasn't sure if they'll get mad at Ron for telling him first.
" Oh please don't tell me you're gay too." Harry said in a worried voice.
" WHAT? NO! Of course not! I'm in love with Hermione for Merlin's sake! I wasn't shocked because Ron had told me earlier today." Draco was a little angry at how Harry thought he was gay. But then the next moment, when he finally understood what he just told them. He looked Petrified.
All of them looked at Hermione, and then back at Draco. Hermione was blushing furiously, as was Draco. He was so embarrassed that he had just told all her friends' that he loved her.
Harry had anger brewing up inside him, but quickly calmed himself.
" AWWWW THAT'S SOOOOOOOOOO SWEET!!!!" Ginny squealed.
"That's soooooo cute Hermione!" Ron said after Ginny. Everyone assumed that Harry would stay silent, but to their surprise he spoke up. "Hermione..Your lucky to have someone care for you as much as you care for them.." Harry looked up to Hermione and smiled. Hermione moved over from Ron's side to Harry's and gave him a big hug.
Everyone calmed down. Around 1am, they all said their good byes. Everyone left on a good note. Hermione and Draco went to bed and slept peacefully.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As the weeks went by, Hermione and Draco got closer and closer. Draco, Harry, and Ron had become really good friends during the time period too. Though Draco kept up his reputation, and still terrified younger children, and picked on Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff.
They haven't heard any news from Lucius, and it appeared that he has disappeared. Hermione and Draco were worried, but Dumbledore made sure they stayed calm.
Pansy was still acting like the annoying this she was. She still wouldn't believe that Draco really did love Hermione. She'd see them together, but her mind was still blind. She still believed that Hermione had a put a spell on Draco. Boy was she stupid. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Next thing you know it, it was the weekend before the Hallowee'en Ball. Also the weekend when everyone would get their costumes for the ball.
Hermione, Draco, and the Prefects have agreed for it to be a costume ball, and it was for the 3years, and up. Though the 3rd years had to leave at 10pm, the 4th and 5th years had to leave at 11pm, and the 6th and 7th years finished the ball at 1 am. They had been given the next day off.
It was Saturday afternoon, and Hogsmade was filled with Hogwarts students. Hermione, Draco, Harry, Ginny, and Ron all went together. But then the girls' separated from the boys to go get their own costume. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Draco, Harry and Ron continued walking down the streets of Hogsmade. They all decided to go get a butterbeer before they start their search for a costume.
They all sat in a booth, and ordered their butterbeers. Ron began to speak about what he wanted to come as. Draco was paying attention but his eyes were wandering around, but stopped when he saw Pansy in a fairly dark corner talking to........ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A/N Hehehehe I LOVE to leave cliffhangers!
