A.N.: Thanks to all my reviewers! I really appreciate it. I Dream, I AM
doing a Draco/ Ginny sequel, but I need to finish this one first, ok? Umm.
does anyone know how to italicize, make writing bold, or underline words?
If you do, could you please tell me how? This chapter took so long to
write! Thanks for being so patient! Thanks to all 16 reviewers (byebye,
hermandron4ever, the-fly-screen, HP fan four, Tom Felton's babe,
bluskittlez, Anna, I Dream2, Princess Story Writer, Penny, Nit-Wit Chang,
Theresa Barajas, and Zidane-and-Cloud, mike, Hermione_gurl787) again!
Chapter 4: Hermione's spell
Hermione's jaw dropped in disbelief. "Ron, you can't! You could get killed! Or worse, expelled!"
Ron raised a hand to silence her. "I know what I'm doing, Hermione. I've wanted to do this forever. I accept," he repeated.
Draco smirked as he walked out the door.
"You can go to your dormitory now, Mr. Weasley, Professor McGonagall said as she bustled into the hospital wing. "Madame Pomfrey has informed me that you may leave."
Ron was relieved. After half a day in the hospital wing doing nothing but studying his spells for the duel, he was ready to go to the common room. "Yes professor," he said as he gathered his things. McGonagall shooed him out the door when he was done.
He basically ran to the common room. The portrait swung open, revealing a room full of students studying spell books. They all looked up at Ron as he walked through the small opening. Applause, cheers, and whistling filled the room. It was louder than the quiddich match!
"What in the world is going on here?" Ron asked when the noise stopped.
"Study Party! Harry told us about Malfoy's little challenge, and we thought we could give you a boost on your spells. We read up on the spells and teach them to you so you know spells and we get free food!" Fred replied.
"Uhh. OK," Ron said, stunned.
"And now that you're here, we can go to the kitchens and get food to make this a REAL party," said George as he and Fred ran out of the room. "OK. Let's hit the books," Ron said as he pulled out his copy of 'Simple But Extraordinary Spells For the Average Witch or Wizard.' Soon after, the twins were back with all kinds of luscious looking foods. Neville Longbottom tried a creampuff and was turned (momentarily) into a girl ("Weasley work at it's finest," George said after nearly choking on a pumpkin pastry). Everyone avoided the creampuffs after that.
Ron was interrupted every five minutes to learn a new spell, all helpful, but none were near as helpful as the spell Hermione taught him.
Hermione hadn't been to the party but came down to help Ron. Ron had his hair green, as he had one of the Weasley Wizard Wheezes.
"Ron," Hermione whispered as if she didn't want to be there. "You know I don't approve of you dueling Malfoy-"
"So you came to try to convince me to do otherwise?" Ron snapped, irritated at the very thought.
"-But," Hermione continued, ignoring Ron's rude interruption. "This is a spell where a wand is of no use."
Ron was dumbfounded. What kind of spell was it if it didn't require a wand?
"This spell was taught to me by the muggles, Harry, and you. But lately, it seems as though you've forgotten it. It's faith, Ron," Hermione said.
"Oh Hermione," Ron breathed, but she had already fled to the girls dormitory.
Before the girls came into the room, Hermione cried herself to sleep, thinking of all the danger Ron had gotten himself into.
