Lilaznpinky525:: Don't worry, I wouldn't do such a thing, I just put in that little part to make it a little more complicated, because I want to keep the story going.
PhoenixTears:: Thank you, Thank you.
I put out a Michelle Branch song fic with George/Hermione. I hope you read it and if you do, review. This story comments:: There's a lot of Fred and George in it and sorry if I portrayed Fred as a little more obnoxious, but funnier than George. It had to be one or the other and George sounds like a more responsible name lol Ok, back to the story.::
After walking for 15 minutes without a word between them, Cho and Hermione found themselves in a corridor they didn't recognize. They had both calmed down by then. The halls felt cold and it was so dark they had to light their wands.
"I think we should go back." Hermione said, her voice high pitched and scared. They then heard paper moving ahead.
"Oh my god!" Cho squealed. "What was that?" Hermione stepped closer and saw a door was slightly open, with dim light pouring through it. On the door there was a dusty sign, so dusty you could not read it. The room was huge, the size of the Gryffindor common room. Hermione stepped inside, clutching her wand. She beckoned for Cho to come closer. Inching into the room, they looked around. It looked like an empty art gallery. There were huge canvas bags all around. Hermione swirled around, looking at a desk. On it there was a stack of papers. Hermione inched closer to the desk, seeming afraid it might bite her. When she got very close to the desk, Hermione saw that the papers were all in letter format. She picked one up and read aloud,
"Dear Cho," Hermione read.
"No! Let me see that!" Cho said, taking one giant step towards Hermione's side. She looked at the letter over Hermione's shoulder.
"Dear Cho," Hermione started. "I'm sorry I couldn't express this to you in person, but as you can see it's taken me this so many words to tell you this that I could never say it all to you..."
"It's just a huge love letter!" Cho said frantically, grabbing the stack of papers and leafing through them.
"Cho! Cho, the writer will say their name at the bottom, they'll say who it's from!" Hermione whispered excitedly, taking her place at Cho's side. They lifted up the stack of papers. Hermione drew out the bottom one and read out loud. . . "And I hope, someday, you will admit the same love for me. Love..." But Cho had already read it and was nearly about to collapse. "Ron Weasley." Hermione whispered. Cho was hyperventilating. "Cho, what's wrong, you love Ron too."
"Yes, but Hermione, there must be fifty pages right there. My God!" Cho restrained a scream by whispering these words.
"He comes off sounding so obsessed." Hermione whispered to herself, looking at one of the pages in the middle as Cho. After about minute Hermione said to Cho, "The strange thing is, though, is that he mentions you as single. He doesn't mention Harry or Cedric or anyone else...He's been keeping this like a diary. Oh my God! Cho!" Hermione squealed. Cho came over. "Towards the end of it he mentions that Harry got the Sorcerer's stone from Voldemort. Says how Harry's always getting all the attention."
"So?" Cho whispered.
"I'm not done!" Hermione said. "`But he's too busy basking in the spotlight to realize the best thing that happened to the world is right here at Hogwarts-You.' Cho you know what this means?"
"N...no." Cho gulped. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Ron liked you before he came to Hogwarts. Yes, see it says here on the second page, 'We got the letter from Hogwarts today. I'll be seeing you in three weeks...' Cho wake up! Fred and George must have talked about you or something. He knew about you before Hogwarts!" Cho opened her mouth to speak, but then they heard footsteps coming down the hall. Two people entered the room just as Hermione and Cho ducked under two of the bags.
"This isn't possible!" Said one of the familiar voices. "It isn't on the map!"
"Weird. This could be like another Chamber of Secrets and no one would notice!" Said another one exactly like it.
"But where's Hermione and Cho?" Said the first voice.
"Who cares, I bet Filch doesn't know about this place either. We should really use the as a stash room."
"But we need to find them."
"Wake up! We'll find them later. What's in these bags?" One of the figures walked over to a bag across from them. Hermione recognized them immediately, it was Fred Weasley. The other figure must have been George. Hermione didn't see any harm, so she stood up. Cho followed her lead.
"Blimey!" Fred said. "I didn't know these things existed!"
"Look at this one!" George said, "Chuck full of Potions!" They looked at each other.
"Joke shop!" The said breathlessly together. Hermione couldn't help herself.
"Don't." She muttered. They spun around looking horrified. "Those could be seriously dangerous. You have no clue what they are." She looked around and saw that Cho was by her side again. Cho was blushing furiously and decided to stay behind Hermione for now.
"That's why we test them on frogs first." George smiled and Cho cowered. "What are you two doing here anyway?"
"We were furious with Ron and Harry's thick skulls and went for a walk. I have something to ask you." Fred and George looked at each other.
"We were looking for you." Fred said.
"Fascinating." Hermione replied, obviously not listening, "Did either of you two talk about Cho in front of Ron when he wasn't even in school yet?"
"No." They said together.
"Fancy that. How did he know of her then?" Hermione said, adding "Oh get up and help me you..." to Cho as she got up and stood at Hermione's side again.
"Dunno." They said together.
"Funny, isn't it, how he knew of her three weeks before his first year of school started."
"How do you know?" George asked her. Hermione had been waiting for this question. She strutted (A/N:: yes, strutted.) to the desk and pulled the stack of papers off.
"Take that for some light reading." She said, handing it to Fred. "I think you'll learn more about your little brother than you ever expected."
"Why were you looking for us?" Cho asked dreamily.
"We're the Harry and Ron messengers." Fred said, sticking his chest out.
"Quite an accomplishment. What's the message?"
"I forget." Fred murmured.
"Helpful messengers." Hermione muttered.
"Come off it, Fred." George said, "They want us to tell you that they've become friends again..."
"...So now they just take turns glaring at each other..." Fred mocked.
"... Ron wants Cho back..." George continued.
"... He wants to snog you..."
"...Ron also says that Hermione is still his friend..."
"...Better watch out, Cho..."
"...Harry says that he wants Hermione back as a friend..."
"...Friend, right **wink**..."
"...And wants to know if all four of you can go out to the lake tonight..."
"...But only if I can come..."
"You do know you're mental?" Hermione said to Fred. He screwed up his face to look like Goyle. Hermione rolled her eyes. "Tell them congratulations on coming to their senses..." Hermione started. George pulled out a parchment and a quill and started scribbling madly.
"... As if you weren't just waiting for them to do that..." Fred muttered. Cho rolled her eyes.
"...Tell Ron that if there's not going to be as much fighting..." Cho started.
"...You've got us to take care of that..."
"...And if he stops acting so jealous all the time..."
"...Ron? Jealous? No way..."
"...I'd be happy to make up with him..."
"...You couldn't resist the snogging..."
"Also tell Ron..." Hermione started.
"...that's what the trusty messengers are for..."
"...That I agree with Cho..."
"...Wait, you're in it for the snogging too? My brother sure gets around..."
"... Tell Harry that we found something to cheer him up..."
"...The only way to do that is to tell him Cho's single..."
"...and I'll bring it with me when we go out tonight..."
"...so it might be a single Cho..."
"Tell Harry to tell Ron..." Cho said.
"...Have to make it complicated..."
"...That Harry and I are just friends..."
"...cough, cough..."
"...and tell Harry that Ron can come with us tonight if he wishes..."
"...What about me? ..." Fred whined. Everyone laughed at Fred like he was waiting for the past few minutes. He suddenly got more serious. "What is this, anyway?" He said, smoothing out the pieces of parchment.
"You'll find out. Don't read it here." Hermione said.

It was lucky that Hermione and Cho left that message with Fred and George, because they didn't see Harry or Ron all day. Monday was Halloween, so the prefects had to walk the corridors looking for people in the holiday spirit and put them in detention for it. Hermione and Cho were both prefects (A/N:: I know, I know, but that's why J.K. Isn't writing this and I Am.), so they walked the corridors together. Harry didn't have anything to do, so they assumed he was walking with Ron. It was soon lunch, and everyone had grown so accustom to Cho sitting at their table that she didn't even go over to the Ravenclaw's table first, she just sat down next to Hermione. Ron and Harry showed up just as the plates were filling themselves for a second time.
"Quidditch." Was all Harry said before biting into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
"Ron, you were supposed to be patrolling the halls!" Hermione said.
"I was patrolling outside. Some Fred and George wannabes decided they should egg Peeves on to breaking every glass window in the whole school. I stopped that." Ron said, tearing into a chicken leg.
"Good for you." Hermione said, eyeing suspiciously what Fred and George were laughing at. It wasn't their normal 'I'm-laughing-at-my-own-or-my- brother's-joke laughter. This was their 'someone-is-about-to-be-teased-for- the-rest-of-their-lives-about-this kind of laughter. She glared at them, only to see they were holding the pile of paper she gave them in the weird room this morning.
"Hem hem" She said, pretending to mock Professor Umbridge, but really getting the twins' attention.
"Oh yeah." They said together. Fred rolled it up and put it in his bag. "That meal made me want to be outside." Fred yawned, pointing to his bag so that only George could see as he got up.
"Yeah. Made even me feel like reading." George said loudly, following his brother.
"That book Hermione and I lent you this morning?" Cho said, her eyebrows raising.
"What other books do we currently have in our possession?" Fred said. Hermione and Cho forced a laugh.
"I have to talk to you about that." Hermione said quietly.
"We already found what you were talking about, and we're going to try and find out how he knew about... ok, I'll shut up." George stopped, seeing the look Hermione was giving him. Ron looked back and forth between all four of them.
"Ok, I want to know right now what's going on." He said. "Sit down I'm not done with you. What's up?"
"Hermione and Cho lent us a novel and we're trying to guess the end before we're done." George lied. "She just thought maybe you'd like to read it after us so she didn't want us to say the ending."
"Rubbish. You don't like to read." Harry said.
"You don't have to believe us, it's a really good book." George said and strolled out of the Great Hall with his twin in his wake.
"Rubbish. Absolute rubbish." Ron said.
"Cho, we better make sure no one's causing trouble in the halls." Hermione said and they left.
"Something's up and we'll find out what it is." Harry said. Ron got up. "No, after, I finished my sandwich." But Ron dragged him out, sandwich forgotten on the table.
