Chapter Thirteen: Caught Off Guard

Hermione backed up into the stone walls of the corridor, with Jasmine closing in on her. Jasmine raised her fist and smiled wickedly.

"There's nowhere to run, Hermione. I've got you right where I want you." Jasmine punched at Hermione's face, but Hermione was ready. She ducked just before Jasmine's fist made contact with her face and-

THUMP

Jasmine punched the stone wall, hard.

"OWWWWW! Bloody hell!!!!" Jasmine screeched as she clutched her hand. She didn't notice Hermione whip her wand out. When she looked up, she saw Hermione pointing her want at her heart.

"You know? I wouldn't try that again. I might have to hex you." Hermione hissed.

"You wouldn't dare." Jasmine said, now backing away from Hermione. For every step she took, Hermione followed menacingly.

"Oh, but I would."

"Let's put wands aside. Let's see who the real woman is here."

"Ha....ha......ha...no." Hermione laughed sarcastically.

"Look Granger, you'd better watch your back."

"Really? You'd better quit spending so much time lying on yours."

Jasmine looked livid. "I'm not the one who fucked Victor Krum, now am I." She sneered. That was the last straw for Hermione.

"STUPEFY!!" Hermione yelled as she stunned Jasmine. Worried that someone may have heard or seen them, she ran to the library as fast as she could. After all, she did still want to get work done, even if she was risking detention. She didn't care, though. It was worth it. After all, Jasmine was the one who started it.

Meanwhile, Jasmine was laying, stunned, on the cold floor of the corridor.

**************************************************************************** ***

A few hours later, Ron was coming back from Quidditch practice. He had been improving for some time now. It was comforting knowing that he was good at something, for once. Last year was the most dreadful year when it came to Quidditch. But that was almost forgotten by everyone, now that he was one of the best keepers at Hogwarts. He'd come a long way from being absolutely horrible, to being spectacular in just one year. His thoughts drifted from Quidditch, to Hermione. She was probably still in the library. The library was just about to close, and if he knew Hermione, she would stay until the very last second. He wanted to go surprise her. Then he could walk her back to their common room and earn himself a kiss. Or maybe even a light snogging session. He smiled at the thought.

When he turned the corridor, his eyes fell on the person that he never wanted to see again in his life. Jasmine was laying, sprawled out on the floor. She was clearly stunned by someone. But who?

He couldn't leave her there, even if they hadn't even spoken since the night they broke up. So, he revived her. "Enervate." He said as he sighed.

When Jasmine got her barrings, she looked up at him. "Thank you, Ron. I don't know how long I've been here."

Ron giving in to curiosity, "Who did this to you?" He didn't see the evil glimmer in her eyes. "You'd never believe it if I told you." Jasmine said, trying to play innocent.

"Who?"

"It was Hermione. She cornered me! I was just walking down the corridor alone, and she came up behind me. She said that I had ruined her life and she wanted me to pay! Before I could do anything, she stunned me!" Jasmine lied, through fake tears.

"What?! Hermione would never do that!"

Jasmine stood up, closing some of the space between herself and Ron. "Yes she would. She's a horrible person. Why did you get rid of me, for her? Look what she's capable of! She hurt me, and I didn't do anything wrong. I for one, would never do something like that." Jasmine said as she smirked inwardly.

"Look, I know Hermione, she wouldn't do something like this."

Jasmine looked at him with languid eyes. "Ron, let me tell you something." She said as she closed the spaced between them completely. "She would, and she did. You shouldn't be with her. You should be with me." Jasmine pressed her lips against his.

Ron just stood there. He was utterly shocked, and yet, at the same time he wasn't. He knew what Jasmine was like. She was trying to seduce him, but it wouldn't work. He was with Hermione now. He tried pushing her away gently, by putting his hands on her shoulders. But it was no use. He tried pulling away, but she pressed in further. He pushed her off of him, but she came back to him, stronger each time. During his struggle of removing the leach that was Jasmine, he didn't hear the footsteps approaching.

The next thing he knew, someone was screaming and he was being hit over the head.

It was Hermione.

"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS GOING ON HERE??!!" Hermione screamed.

"Wait-Hermione, it's not what you think!!!" Ron pleaded.

"Yes it is. He doesn't want you anymore. He wants a real woman." Jasmine sneered.

"Shut up, you bloody whore!" Ron yelled at Jasmine. He rounded on Hermione. "Please listen to me! It's not what you think!! Jasmine attacked me! I tried to push her away, but-"

Before he could even finish his sentence and try to explain himself, she was gone.
