Authors Notes: Well, I bring you chapter three. You'll be seeing a lot more Ron and Hermione in the following chapters. So, this fic will be good for both Harry/Ginny, and Ron and Hermione fans because we all know those couples rule! In my opinion anyway.

Sorry it's been awhile since the last update. Been busy. Hope this was worth the wait.

Chapter Three: Hermione's Arrival:

"Welcome Hermione, oh it's so good to see you again!" Mrs. Weasley said as she saw Hermione enter the Weasley home. She gave the young girl a hug.

"It's good to see you again too." replied Hermione with a smile as the two parted from the hug.

"I hope you're trip was all right dear." Mrs. Weasley told her.

"It was fine." assured Hermione.

Mrs. Weasley was going to continue talking to Hermione, but she was stopped when she saw Ron and Harry rush past her, and go to their friend. Harry embraced her, and Ron went to but he ended up giving her a handshake instead. Harry eyed Ron, and Ron just told him: "Don't bother with it." Harry just nodded in agreement.

Hermione then told them: "I love staying here with you two. It's always so much fun, and interesting."

"Yeah, no kidding." Ron replied as he eyed Harry.

Hermione saw this, and asked: "Should I ask?"

"It's nothing." Harry said.

"Are you playing the repeating game again Harry?" asked Fred as he and George joined the others to greet Hermione.

"What is he talking about?" Hermione asked.

"Well," said Mrs. Weasley, interrupting the kids. "I guess I'll go cook some dinner and get out of your way. Mr. Weasley and Percy should be coming home soon so I'm sure they'll be hungry too."

The kids watched as Mrs. Weasley left and head into the kitchen. When she was gone, Hermione asked once again: "What is Fred talking about?"

"Nothing." George said mocking Harry.

Harry glared at him. "What?" he asked. "That was what you were going to say wasn't it?" Fred laughed at his brother's comment.

"I have good idea how about you shut up all ready!" Harry was getting tired of their picking.

"Okay. Okay. Walking away now." said Fred. He and George made a quick dash to their room.

Hermione laughed and replied: "Well, I see things are all ready interesting around here."

"Gee, what gave you that idea?" asked Ron with an eye roll.

"So," Hermione said, changing the subject. "How is Ginny doing? The last I heard she was not doing too well."

"Well... uh... It's hard to explain..." said Ron turning to Harry.

Harry was about to reply but Ginny came down the steps. "Hermione!"

Hermione, like everyone else saw a difference in Ginny. She smiled. "Hey Gin, what's been going on? Can't get an answer from the boys."

"A lot!" she told her. "Come on! You'll be staying with me in my room which is good because I have some things I need to tell you about."

Hermione watched as Ginny eyed Harry. "Oh, okay, let me get my stuff her." She had brought a few things with her for her stay at the Weasley's. Ginny helped her with her things, and the two went upstairs to Ginny's room.

Ron and Harry watched them leave, when they were gone Ron asked: "Okay, are you sure there is nothing going on between you and my sister?"

"Yeah," Harry assured him. "I keep telling you this."

"I know but it just seems... Oh, just never mind." Ron replied. "Anyway, want to play a round of Wizards Chess before we are run over with the girls?"

"Sure." he answered, and the two went to go play.

Ginny and Hermione were now in Ginny's room. Ginny was helping Hermione by putting her things away. "It really doesn't matter where you put them. Just don't forget anything when you leave."

"I won't." Hermione said as she put away some of her clothes. "So, now what do you have to talk about?"

Now, Ginny wasn't one of Hermione's best friends. That title was all ready given to Ron and Harry, but Ginny was her friend, and Ron's sister. She didn't minding spending this time with Ginny. She had a feeling Ginny wouldn't mind talking to another girl since she always seemed surrounded by boys.

"You seem happier since the last time I saw you." Hermione pointed out as she continued to put her things away.

"Yeah, I know." said Ginny with a smile.

"What happened?" Hermione asked.

"Well, let's just say you can thank Harry."

"What do you mean?"

"There was a storm the other night right, and I couldn't have a sleep because... I couldn't sleep." Ginny said, trying not to give too much of her troubles away. She didn't want to worry or scare Hermione. "I went down to the living room, made a fire, and stayed awake. Then Harry came down and sat with me. He gave some comfort..."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Hermione thought about this. It did sound like something Harry would do, but she didn't think he would comfort Ginny. After all she had a crush on him for the longest time, and Harry really didn't do much to show any feelings in return. I have a feeling that's going to change. Hermione thought. She then let Ginny finish. "Then what?" she asked.

"Well, the other day he and I were helping mum with the cleaning, we had kitchen duty, and well for some odd reason... I... Um..."

"What?!"

"I kissed him on the check." Ginny finally finished.

"You did what?!" asked Hermione again.

"Yeah," she replied, going red in the face. "Now, I really don't know what's going to happen with this. I think I might have made it worse."

"I don't know Gin," Hermione said. "Who knows? All you can do is wait I guess."

"I know and that's the hard part." said Ginny.

"Well, how about we go see what the guys are doing?" Hermione suggested. "We're done with putting my stuff away."

"You do that. I think I'm going to see if mum needs any help." with that said, the two headed downstairs.

Hermione had a feeling Ginny was now trying to avoid Harry because Ginny was starting to get scared, and she was right. At least at the moment.

To Be Continued...

Authors Notes: (continued): Told you there would be more Ron and Hermione. The scene I put in the beginning of the chapter about Ron going to give Hermione a hug came straight from the movie. I couldn't help myself. I loved that in Harry Potter 2. As for Ginny and Harry's fluffy scenes, don't worry they're coming up. Got to save the best for last you know. Well, please review. Until the next update...
