Ron walked up the stairs to the dormitory and slammed the door shut. He walked to his bedside and noticed the drawer of Harry's nightstand was opened. He walked over to shut it but decided to have a peak inside. Only his Gryffindor scarf, the knife Sirius had given his last Christmas, the book Hagrid had given him at the end of first year and a diary. Wait a second. What is Harry doing with a diary? Why didn't Harry ever tell me he got one of these things? He wondered if he actually wrote in it as he thought about how his own was buried in the bottom of his trunk unopened since the day Hermione had gotten it for him. Dairies were such a girl thing. Fred and George would flip if they found out I actually had one! He picked it up and began to read the first page

July 11th, Happy Birthday Harry! I thought you might like this to write in. Just so you don't have to keep all your thoughts and feelings bottled up. Just in case you need to get something out that you feel you can't tell Ron and I about. And Harry just remember that you're never alone! I know it may feel like it as you sit at the Dursley's reading this, but your not! You have Ron and I. And you have Sirius. Were always thinking of you and we miss you so much! Love from, Hermione

Ron sighed as he finished Hermione's letter. He was with Hermione all summer and he never knew Hermione had sent him this. Neither one of them had ever told him. He flipped the page to find the first and only entry. Ron looked at the date. Decemer 1st! Ron Looked at Dean's Quidditch calendar and checked the date. Wow that's today he said aloud.

Ron heard the doorknob move. He threw the Diary back in the drawer and made sure it shut. Harry stood in the doorway and Ron grinned at him. 'You can't deny it this time mate, I know you fancy Hermione' He said with an even bigger grin on his face.
