Sorry, I Took So Long
~ ~ ~ ~ G
Hermione, Ron, Harry and I had woken up that morning, and gone through our usual routine. Nothing out of the ordinary had happened. We were now in madam Romeraze's studio, waltzing around in our little circles. Ron and Hermione for some reason or another were not talking, smiling, or even looking at each other. Harry and I were discussing what in the world could have happened to them. While we were doing a line dance, Hermione didn't seem to be into it as much as usual.
When we were walking back to the Leaky Caldron, I walked with Hermione so I could talk to her.
"Hermione, are you alright?" I asked her.
"Yes, of course. Why do you ask?" Hermione lied.
"You're an awful liar," I stated.
"I know, but can we talk about it somewhere else?" she pleaded.
I could tell that she was on the verge of tears. After running up to tell Harry and Ron to go on without us, I took her to an ice cream shop. I had enough money to get a huge bowl with every type of chocolate ice cream they had. I brought the bowl over to where I had Hermione sitting.
"Now, taking as long as you need to, I want you to tell me what happened between you and Ron," I commanded.
Hermione sat there for a minute, and then took a spoonful of ice cream and ate it. She had a little more ice cream before she started talking.

Mmm, do you have any idea how good chocolate ice cream tastes when you're mad a Ron? It was so wonderful, that I had to stop myself so that I could answer Ginny's question.
Finally, I said, "I don't know."
"What?" she asked confused.
"I don't know what happened between Ron and me," I said again.
"You don't know what happened between you and Ron?" she asked.
"Yes, that's what I just told you," I said exasperated.
And then, out of nowhere, I started crying my head off. Ginny rushed over to my side of the table, and put her arm around me. That made me sob harder. We sat there for about half an hour with me crying, and Ginny trying to comfort me.
When I had calmed down enough to do anything, I took a huge spoonful of ice cream and shoved it into my mouth. This forced Ginny into a giggle fit, which started me laughing, too. The owner of the place probably thought we were nutso. Which we were at the moment.

Girls are nutso. I don't get what their problem is. One minute they'll be perfectly happy, and the next they'll be chewing you out for something you did wrong, and you can't figure it out. Let me explain what I mean.
Today, I haven't done anything what so ever to Hermione, and yet she is way mad at me. What have I done wrong? Someone please explain her to me.
When Harry and I arrived home, he immediately took me to our room.
"What happened between you and Hermione?" was the first thing that came out of his mouth.
"How would I know? She's the one that's mad at me for some unknown reason!" I exploded in Harry's face. "She's the one that has to be right all the time! She's the one that won't accept me for being a stupid idiot that can't remember anything!"
"Never thought I'd here that come out of your mouth," Harry joked.
"Well, it's true, and I can't do anything about it."
"So, you really don't know why she's mad at you?"
"No, and it's been bothering me all day."
Harry decided to let the subject drop, and we went outside to practice some Quidditch. Harry took a ball and started tossing it at three trees that looked similar to the goals on a Quidditch field. I flew over to them, and practiced blocking the throws. Eventually we spotted Hermione and Ginny coming home, and while I stayed in the air, Harry flew down to greet them.
When Harry landed, I saw Ginny whisper something in his ear, and then take Hermione inside. Harry flew back up, and explained that he was going to talk with Ginny for a while, and that maybe I could try to talk to Hermione. Then he landed, and went inside.
I stayed in the air and flew around the clearing for a while, then I landed, went inside to do anything, but be alone out there. Inside, I saw Hermione sitting at the table, and hurried up to my room.

"Ginny, what did Hermione say about her and Ron?" I asked.
"She said that she didn't know what happened between them," Ginny answered.
"Ron said that he didn't know why Hermione was mad at him," I stated.
"So, both of them don't know why they are fighting?" Ginny asked.
"I guess so."
"This is ridiculous! We are trying to get them together, and they can't even fight about something in particular. Ahhh! We have to do something about them."
"O.K. So, what do we do?"
"We have to get them together in the same room for an extended amount of time, until they resolve their differences, and become soul mates."
"English please."
"Put them in the same room until they get along."
We came up with a plan, and decided to put it into action that night.
~ ~ ~ ~ H
"Hermione, will you come here, please?" Ginny asked me.
"Sure, what do you need?" I asked.
"Just come here."
I went to her room, and sat on her bed. Then, Ron walked in. I stood up, and was about to leave, when Ginny walked out, closed the door, and locked it. There I was, locked in the same room with Ronald Weasley.
"Ron, go away," I said.
"And, where am I supposed to go?" he asked.
"Go huddle up in that corner, and put a blanket over yourself, so I can't see you."
He did just that, and I was extremely surprised that he was listening to what I said. I went back to Ginny's bed, and laid down on it, until I fell asleep.
~ ~ ~ ~ R
I felt like an idiot sitting under that blanket, but I thought maybe if I did everything that Hermione told me to, them I might get on her good side again. I heard her lay down on Ginny's bed, and didn't hear anything else for about fifteen minutes. I turned around to see what Hermione was doing, and found her asleep. She's beautiful when she sleeps was the first thought that went through my head. The next one was, I wish she wasn't mad at me, then I could be next to her.
I turned back around, and put the blanket over my head again. I fell asleep that way.
