Harry and Jamie entered the Great Hall - hand in hand. Much to Jamie's
relief, Tom seemed happy for her. The Slytherins were scowling and
muttering awful insults under their breath. The entire Gryffindor table
broke into applause. They had always been odd like that.
Jamie smiled. Gryffindors could always make her smile.
They sat down at the Gryffindor table, along with Hermione, Ron, and Lisa.
Lisa was strangely quiet this morning. She didn't sit next to Ron either. This messed everything up. Lisa sat near to Harry because she assumed Jamie would be sitting between her and Harry. But Hermione had assumed Lisa would sit next to Ron, so she also sat next to Harry. Harry had girls on either side of him, and so Jamie sat next to Ron.
It was about this time Lisa said goodbye to Jamie and walked over to the Ravenclaw table. She then sat next to Tom, who smiled. Ron scowled, and Hermione beamed. Ron scowled at Hermione for smiling, and Harry smiled because he thought this was all funny. Both Ron and Hermione glared at Harry for smiling at all.
Emotions were high and yet no one had said anything at all. Jamie thought it was funny as well, but didn't dare interrupt the silent conversation - or argument by the looks of it.
"Does anyone want bacon?" Jamie asked sweetly.
"Sure." Both Ron and Hermione had chimed in at the same time.
"No, go ahead." Hermione said in a sarcastically polite voice.
"After you." Ron replied with a significant finality in his voice.
"I said go ahead." Hermione persisted, her eyes shooting daggers.
"Fine then, I will." Ron snapped.
Hermione folded her arms and quickly looked away.
"What, do you want some?" Ron asked harshly.
"Well, not anymore!"
"Oh, and I suppose that's my fault!"
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Can I have some bacon?" Harry interrupted tentatively.
"NO!" they both yelled in unison.
"Oh, so you're being selfish now, is that it?"
"Who said I was selfish?"
"You wouldn't let Harry have any bacon!"
"You wouldn't let him have any either!"
"I offered you some!"
"Oh, and that's supposed to make a difference?"
"Well, maybe if you weren't so blind, you'd see that I was trying to be considerate!"
"Considerate? You give Lisa the cold shoulder, and you say now that you're trying to be considerate?"
"She's the one who ignored me!"
"Oh, so you're gonna blame this on her now!"
"You brought her into this!"
"So, now you're gonna blame ME!?"
"I don't see what my girlfriend has to do with any of this!"
"She walked away, and you didn't stop her!"
"Are you saying it's my fault she left the table?"
"Maybe I am!"
"Yes, well, maybe I did. Just proof that I was trying to be considerate!"
"To who?!"
"You!"
At this point, Jamie couldn't hear herself think - the only clear thought she could hear was to make this stop! She grabbed the plate of bacon they were both holding, scooped off all the bacon onto her own plate, and handed the now empty plate back to them.
"If you really want bacon, ask the Hufflepuffs, they have plenty."
Harry smiled and forked a piece of bacon from Jamie's plate onto his own. Jamie looked down at her plate piled with bacon. She wasn't sure she could actually eat it all. She forked two more pieces onto Harry's plate, and he smiled, and kissed her cheek before eating.
AN: well, that was short, I know, but the next one will be longer and guess what happens??? AHHHHHHH!!! I CANT TELL YOU! HA! so just. READ IT! (
