Chapter 3: The Cheerleading Squad

Disclaimer: I'd like to thank once again Courtney and Avryelle 4 reviewing my fic! Thank u!

"My mystery man? Yeah right like I'd fall for that crap joke! It's pretty obvious you can't fool with Hermione Granger she knows and I know very well that Ron saved me sweet of him!" Hermione thought.

"Madam Pomfrey am I permitted to go now? I am rather in a hurry" Hermione asked

"You are dear! And take care next time being lovesick leads to no solution!" she said

"Yeah right! Like I am so in love with Ron!" Hermione said sarcastically "What dear?" Madame Pomfrey Asked

"Oh nothing Madame thank you anyway I better hurry!"

She then went to her dormitory feeling a lot more warmer with Ron it makes her feel protected by Ron that only he had saved her from her terrible fall. It makes her regret about not loving Ron the way she should have.

"Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans" she muttered to the sleeping portrait "Sure is right dear!" The fat lady muttered

When she entered the room Ron rushed toward her. "Hermione are you okay? Where were you?" He asked

"Don't play stupid with me Ron; you definitely know where I have been!" Hermione said sweetly at him "And I'm very thankful to you for saving me from that fall and bringing me to the infirmary! Thank you" she continued.

"What do you-"

"Sshh Ron it's no big deal no point hiding it! Don't say anything" Hermione said kissing him.

"Fine, I don't know what the hell she's talking about but I'm leaving it this way! It makes her far warmer to me. She appreciates me more than ever" Ron thought not breaking their kiss.

Though Ron was still suspicious on who Hermione was talking about he thought that it would be better not to find out so that Hermione will stay as warm as she is to him now.

"Oh and Ron I have something from you" Hermione said "What is it? Thoughtful of you."He said

"It's this" Hermione said handing Ron the golden locket.

Ron observed the locket and tried whacking it against the table, he even tried to charm it so that it would open.

Hermione looked at him puzzled.

"Ummm Hermione, how do you open this thing?" Ron asked "Oh Ron!" Hermione sighed. She got the locket from Ron and opened it for him. Ron gazed at the picture not taking his eyes off it.

Hermione understood by the looks of Ron's face that he had indeed loved her present. She beamed at him saying "It's the newest photo I got!"

"You look very pretty here but I wish that this photo would move. Hermione, you don't expect me to go and wear this..It's to girly for me to wear however I'll be keeping it with me" Ron asked

"Of course Ron! As long as you like it!"

"Oh I forgot! I have something for my fair girlfriend too!" he said at her.

Hermione smiled, Ron had been so thoughtful lately. While Ron searched in his bag for his present to Hermione, Lavender approached them.

"I wonder what Ron has for you Hermione, Last year he gave me a stuffed Rabbit with a single eye missing, although it's kinda destroyed I loved it!"

"Really/ that's nice of him"

"Lavender, come here! There's something I wanna show you" Seamus shouted "Coming, see ya both of you!"

Ron then handed Hermione a silver ring with something on it.

"A MOOD RING!" Hermione screeched "It's not much you know" Ron said ears turning pink

"Oh Ron! I love it" Hermione shouted hugging Ron. "You know Hermione it's just cheap I bought it-"

"RON! I don't care I love your present!" Hermione said putting on the ring which immediately turned aqua blue. "You must be happy, Hermione" Ron said eyeing Hermione's ring.

Then they walked toward Harry who was looking very grim.

"What's wrong Harry?" Hermione asked

"Oh nothing.."

"Don't OH NOTHING us wise guy! Clearly there is SOMETHING wrong with you" Ron said

"I don't know what got into me but please don't laugh!"

"Tell us! We can't stand your thrilling story!" Ron said sarcastically

"Well I asked umm I asked Cho to be my girlfriend" Harry said quickly "Just this evening, right after dinner"

"No way!" Hermione said "What did she say?"

"She told me she was going to be singled out for sometime in honor of Cedric's death she even quitted Quidditch just the hell for him!" Harry said

"WEIRD" Hermione and Ron said together.

"Well its just that I think that I don't like her anymore, I got someone else besides her, this girl I'm talking about is really pretty and I saved her once from a terrible fate!" Harry said

"Who?" Ron asked

"I'm not going to tell you that's between me and myself!" Harry said "Fair Enough!" Hermione said yawning "I'm going to bed, I'm rather tired"

"Night Hermione!" Ron said sweetly "Night Ron and Thanks" Hermione said giving Ron a smack on his cheek.

Hermione went to bed her mood ring turning a shade of blue.

"Good Morning Everyone!" Hermione shouted the next day (SATURDAY) nobody heard her.

"I said GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!" Hermione shouted much louder this time.

Lavender, Parvati and Ginny and the rest of the girls woke up for a start.

"What are you doing here Hermione?" "What's the racket all about?" "I need breakfast!" "You need a break!"

Several questions were bombarded to her as she woke them up.

"Sorry to crack your morning up but I got a very special announcement to make!"

"Make it quick! Seamus will be waiting" Lavender choked

'Everyone knows we have a Quidditch team, we all want our players to be more encouraged to play and to win that is!" Hermione said quickly "I am going to make a Cheerleading Squad for the Gryffindor house, I am letting you fill out this paper for auditioning all right? As soon as you've finished signing it I will be checking it! I hope my idea of this cheer squad would be a success because all this hard work is for a special friend of mine named Harry..Okay?"

Nobody answered her, Lavender then asked.

"Hermione what exactly is a cheerleading squad?"

"Oh sorry about that its about a team cheering for a team and usually they get to wear skirts have fun do exhibitions and loads of fun stuff and not to mention once you're a cheerleader you have great chances of being popular!" Hermione said

"Oh you mean like that Muggle Video my dad brought at home like those girls in that video Bring it on being tossed on air, yell rhyming words and stuff" Ginny said

"Exactly" Hermione approved "I'm accepting girls from other houses as long as their not from Slytherin!

"Oh good I'm signing up" Parvati said and the other girls turned to join too.

"Hand me that paper, Im filling in" Lavender shouted over the mob of girls each one squealing and yapping about the cheer squad.

"Hey no fair me first!" A girl shouted pushing the girl with the audition paper list.

"Girls! No pushing it's still audition" Hermione shouted. "Great! Hermione I'm really happy that somebody finally came up with an idea like this, I mean look at us were gonna be cheerleaders and oh I'm letting Padma fill up!" Parvati said

"That's great you three keep that paper alive while I'm gone! I need some breakfast" Hermione said

"Hey, Hermione what took you so long in that dormitory? You and the girls talking about a hunk hotter than I am that it took you hours gawping at his photo?" Ron asked

"Oh shut up you know very well what I was doing there!" Hermione said rolling her eyes.

"So tell me what took you so long?"

"Oh Ron, why would you bother to even know what's going on a girls dormitory? Why should I tell you?" Hermione asked

"Because I'm your boyfriend and for your information your 18 minutes late than usual"

"Oh all right since your so hardheaded and you want to know that bad! Fine I'll tell you but not a word to anyone of you'll get pounded-"

"By who?"

"Lavender"

"Oh really now tell me!" Ron demanded "Not a word to anyone okay? Me and the girls are planning for a cheer squad for Harry it's a surprise for him and since I heard that Cho quitted Quidditch I'm having her on my team " Hermione told Ron quietly and quickly.

"Umm Hermione I'm not showing my ignorance to your world but what the hell is a cheerleading squad?" Ron asked.

"Oh...I'ts a group of girls cheering for a certain team, they get to wear short skirts and great outfits be tossed on air and stuff" Hermione replied knowingly.

"Oh..How I wish I were on the Quidditch team so I'd see you perform" Ron said grimly

"Get real Ron! Of course you'll be seeing me you'll be there right to watch me and the game?" Hermione asked

"Yeah but it would be a lot better if those cheers coming for you will be for me!" Ron said

"Oh Ron, quit being a baby and lets proceed to the Great Hall! I'm famished, I have to look for Cho and send an owl to Viktor-" "What For?!" Ron asked heatedly, Hermione giggled. "No need to be angry, Since Fleur and him are together I figured out if I have Fleur on my squad just that day I'll be doin you and the other guys a favor, I know how much you fantasize her!"

"No Hermione I like you more than her!" "And I do too! But I guess I'm really starving lets go!"

"Oh ok hand me that porridge it looks delicious!"

"Remember Ron not a word to Harry or else...."

"Right! I still cant believe that Lavender can be that threatening!"
