Chapter 3: Dating
A/N: I don't know how to spell hogsmaede! Don't sue me! Just leave a review yelling at me hehe.
It had been a few days since they had made the deal. Ron and Hermoine had been doing a good job on not making any suspisions between Harry and Ginny.
*
"Ginny hurry up we have to get to Hogsmaede!" Hermoine yelled up the stairs of the girl's dorm to Ginny.
Ginny and Harry were going to hogsmaede together, and they all had been waiting for Ginny for near 20 minutes. Finally when Ginny had decided to come down they left. Hermoine figured Ginny had probably been upstairs fussing over how she looked the whole morning…she had liked Harry for many years and was very enthused that he had asked her to Hogsmaede.
They headed over to Hogshead and they all ordered a butterbeer.
"That's one thing I love about this place…unlimited butterbeer." Said Ron cheerfully.
"Yeah sure Ron. Because that's all people need in life butterbeer." Ginny replied sarcastically. "But on the other hand you seem to have all you want." She looked at Hermoine and smiled. Ron put an arm around hermoines shoulder and almost hesitantly said, "I suppose you could say that."
Hermoine was getting annoyed although Ron was being so nice…she wished he really meant the things he was saying.
"Ok well Ginny and I are going to go take a walk, then probably head back to Hogwarts…see you guys later." And Harry and Ginny walked out of Hogshead holding hands.
"Well er…what do you want to do Ron?"
"It doesn't matter…do you want to take a walk?"
"Sure."
They walked out of the crowded building, into the fresh air, and began to stroll down the path…heading in no specific direction.
"Its pretty cold for this time of the year isn't it?" Hermoine said as she shivered.
"Do you want to wear my jacket?"
"Oh no... Its ok." But Ron took it off and placed it over Hermoines shoulders any way. He could be so sensitive. 'its just a bet… its just a bet hermoine..oh what the heck…' she thought before she hooked her arm through his and placed her head on his shoulder. Rons eyes widened ' she er…must be doing this to convince Ginny we are really dating' he thought, and that was good enough explanation for him. Even though they both knew Harry and Ginny were no where to be seen. Hermoine wasn't trying to convince anyone,but Ron didn't care…he was quite content.
"Well its probably time we get back , we missed dinner already." Ron chimed as he had noticed they had walked up and down the same street 10 times.
"Yeah of course. Lets go."
*
Soon Hermoine and Ron found themselves in the semi crowded common room of Gryffindor. Hermoine sat cuddled up in the nook of the coach near the fire with a warm cup of Coa-coa, that she had brewed up with a simple spell. Ron sat next to her and stared into the fireplace…simply just thinking, and his only sister Ginny sat on the coach across from them.
When Ginny wasn't paying attention, Hermoine winked at Ron and grabbed ahold of his hand and laced her fingers through his. And they held hands for quite a while…she had to make sure Ginny believed they were going out. And Ron seemed to approve, when he squeezed her hand. Ginny smiled and left, she wanted to give her friends some privacy in their newly found relationship.
Ron assumed she would let go of his hand…but she didn't. She turned and looked into Ron's eyes….
"This is romantic." She said.
"Ginny left…you know? You can act normal."
"I know." She said in a sweet voice.
"Well then I suppose it is er...romantic." he acted like he had never said that word (romantic) before…and I suppose knowing Ron he might not have…yet he smiled when he said it.
He didn't really know what had come over him but the next thing he knew he was leaning in towards her…every second he was an inch closer….he was going to kiss her. Just then someone burst in through the portrait hole…
"Hey guys what's up?" asked a cheery Harry; he had obviously had a nice day with Ginny.
Ron and Hermoine released hands and sat there, their faces crimson
They had almost kissed…good thing Harry had come in… kissing Hermoine would have only made things more complicated…because it was only a bet…just a bet…right?
"Did I miss something?" Harry asked obliviously.
