At dinner that night they were to announce that they were boyfriend/girlfriend and they only hoped that everyone would be ok with it. so at dinner they arrived hand in hand. They made Mrs.Weasley drop her fork, Ginny chocked on her water and Ron all out laughed."what is so funny ron?"asked hermione "just the fact that you two probably don't know that your holding hands"
he said laughing "Of course we know ,you git,we were gonna wait until after the meal but since we got everyones attention ,we wanted to announce that we are going out together now"Hermione said "yeah and I just wanted to announce what the risks are,i found out at the ministry that there was a prophecy about me and voldemort"he paused for gasps ,murmurs of fear "and the prophecy said this,Either he will die at my hands or I will die at his"now everyone was frantic mrs.Weasley was near tears, Ginny was crying Ron looked petrified along with everyone else at the table. Everyone looked frozen like that so Hary tried to lighten up the mood "That's it no more news we can eat now"he received alot of "i'm not hungry"s from everyone at the table so harry and Hermione sat down and ate by themselves."I think we should apologize for hurting them so much"they both said at the exact same time."your right"they said again at the same time.
The next few days were past still by themselves, mostly talking about school and friends and things like that they were both extremly at ease with each other and that was a very good thing but Harry still felt guilty for what he might be putting her through.It was now the end of the summer it was the 30th of august and they were going to platform 9and three quarters soon to soon for the boy's liking but as it was for Hermione she was happy to go see some of her other friends.She and Ron were still prefects and harry was made one too althought no one could beleive that Dumbledore actually bent the rules for Harry(they hadn't realized that he was special to Dumbledore).
They were now boarding the Hogwarts express when came the voice of a certain blond-haired slytherin "Oh look mudblood has a boyfriend"he said as he saw that she and Harry were still walking hand in hand "Go away you slimy ferret-boy"Harry said"oh is potty standing up for his mudblood girlfriend???awww how discusting"
They all started yelling and the conductor came and split them up ,they all made their way to the prefects carriage.Where they got all their duties and rules and such things after that they went into an empty compartment Harry and Hermione sat all cuddled up on one side while Ron sat alone on the other.Suddenly the train stoped and everything went black,they heard a voice that scared them all into oblivion.They heard Voldemort, who got his aim all wrong,(he wanted to hit harry)when he used the killing curse,the lights came on just in time to see Ron getting hit square in the chest by a flash of green light and fall to the ground dead.Voldemort disapparated seeing as he missed his target.Meanwhile, Harry and Hermione were crouched down by Ron's body's side Hermione crying,Harry cursing and barely fighting back the tears.Under his breath he was speaking to Ron "Come back mate, I can't lose you ,your my best friend. I just lost Sirius ,now you ,somethings got to change.Come back as a ghost please Ron so that we can see you again."Hermione was whatching him with tearfull eyes she knew that this would be hard to get over but she knew that it would ruin their year."Harry ?"she said"yeah 'Mione*sniff*"he answered "I love you and I want you to know that I'm not going anywhere"
"i know 'Moine don't worry 'bout me,we should get some help, i don't think it's healthy to look at his d-d-d-dea-dead body,do you?"
"I guess it's not but I-I-I m-m-miss him already and he just left how
are we gonna go through this year??""I don't know but I feel I should have helped him or something"he said "I'm serious Harry there's nothing that you could have done"she said taking his head onto her shoulder and hugging him.They were both crying when they got help and they didn't stop crying for a while .The train hadn't known about the attack which made everything harder when Ginny came around."hey "she said cheerfully"where's Ron?"
she asked nicely,she frowned when Harry and Hermione started to cry."what's wrong?"she said feeling sad,mad and frustrated"it's R-R-Ron he's-s-s-s n-not here ,he wont come b-back, he's d-d-dea-dead"Harry said crying."What???you-you-you've got t-to be k-k-k-kid-kidding"Ginny said crying"n-no I-I wouldn't ki-kid about something like this"Harry said still rubbing his tears from his eyes with his hand."when we get to school I'll owl mum to tell her"Ginny said"OK here you can use Hedwig"harry said handing her Hedwig's cage."thanks"she said giving him a forced smile.
Back at the school no one was laughing everyone had heard about Ron. The slytherin's were being about as nice as they could,they weren't laughing but they were still smirking at Harry and Hermione who everyone else were giving there pity to.But they didn't care they asked Dumbledore if they could talk to him before the start-of-term feast "So we were wondering considering the happenings on the train if we could eat by ourselves and maybe with Ginny Weasley in our common room"asked Hermione to Dumbledore "Miss Weasley has been sent home for a month to take care of personnal problems,as for you two you will be allowed to eat in your private common room for prefects"he aswered.Harry and Hermione open their mouths in shock because of the death of Ron ,they had forgot about their own common room.
he said laughing "Of course we know ,you git,we were gonna wait until after the meal but since we got everyones attention ,we wanted to announce that we are going out together now"Hermione said "yeah and I just wanted to announce what the risks are,i found out at the ministry that there was a prophecy about me and voldemort"he paused for gasps ,murmurs of fear "and the prophecy said this,Either he will die at my hands or I will die at his"now everyone was frantic mrs.Weasley was near tears, Ginny was crying Ron looked petrified along with everyone else at the table.
