Skeletons in The Closet

Chapter Two: Revelations

Disclaimer: Me no owney anything, except my plotline, obviously. Notes: I'm going to write more than I did before on this section. The story is set while the Fab Gang are in they're third ear (The Fab Gang being Ron Harry and Hermione. Work out everyone elses years for yourselves.)There are themes of teen gay-ness in the story, but absolutely NO smut...cuz ew. Just the feelings they have about each other, thats it. Yes, Harry and Ron and Ginny etc do appear in the stroy, but for now I am focusing on Hermione, cuz she's very cool. And now for theOscar Speech bit: I would like to thank J.K for giving the world H.P in the first place, Loran for getting me into fff.net, and um, thats it. Alsoanyone who has read or reviewed the first chapter. Oh yeah, in my first chap i typed 'discerining' by accident instead of 'discerning'. I can spell, honest.

*Revelations*

A couple of hundred miles away from Sussex, where Hermione Granger lived, a dark-haired girl flicked off her computer screen, smiling to herself. She walked over to her desk and picked up a quill. "Well, who'd of thought it?" She asked of her large barn owl. "Who'd of thought I'd have somebody in love with me? I can't believe it." She thought, grinning away. And such an unexpected person, too. The girl finished writing and read it over to herself. *Dear Kame, How are you doing, over there in China ? Things are so boring here. I wish I'd up and left, like you. Still, I suppose fourth year will be interesting. I've got talking to some people from school over Instant! Messenger. Cedric Diggory, Padma Patil and some Gryffindors, too. I actually wondered whether Harry Potter would have an email adress, but turns out he doesn't. I talk to one of his friends a lot and she says he lives with his Aunt and Uncle, and apparently they're proper evil to him.

Her name's Hermione Granger. She's in third year when we go back, but she's way too smart for that year, if you aks me. And for Gryffindor. I really like her. In fact, we've kind of started dating. We haven't met up, because she can't. Plus she hasn't told her parents that shes gay or bisexual or whatever. Leaves me thinking about when I told you and you helped me through it. I really miss having you around to talk to. Be careful, and don't do anything stupid. Like get killed. Yours, Cho xXx*

Yes, thought Cho as she rocked back on her chair. Things were going to be pretty interesting when she got back to school.
******** Hermione again(A/N:After she's told her parents her thing. Up in her room, thinking about it.) My parents sat. They stared. I cleared my throat. "So, um are you okay with that? I thought you should know, first. I just had to tell someone, because it was getting me down, and I'm not saying that I'm a lesbian, because,well-you know, Ron, but i have had these kind of..of, well-feelings-towards girls, and, you know what? I;m going to shut up." They carried on staring. It must be a shock. My conventional, normal, average parents, who've always encouraged normality and sticking with the majority ("That's how you get to the top, darling.") But now, up in my room, it angers me to think about it. Who wants to be normal? Nornal gets you nowhere. I didnt get to be top of my year being normal, did I? And they weren't complaining then. They did complain about Ron and Harry at first. In fact, when I got my first letter from Dumbledore after my first year, they told me that I should keep out of things. I was furious. We'd saved lives! Now, I think they probably think that about me. That I'm being silly. Cho tried to prepare me for it, but even she said that she couldnt predict their reaction.

I sighed, and turned over in bed. Only a week to go until the beginning of term, anyway.
