Potter books, just my plot that I created. Enjoy!
"So, Hermione, how'd you guys make up? Was it just like that? Seems a bit fast to me." Ginny was asking tons of questions, and would not stop. She had just gotten home with her family from supply shopping, and they were up in Ginny's room after eating a nice dinner.
"Well, we're like best friends, and we've been in tons of fights before and made up, this was just another one of them."
"OK, if you say so." Ginny said suspiciously, not quite believing that Hermione and Ron had only made up. "I'm gonna go brush my teeth real quick, be back in a sec."
"OK, Gin, we'll still be here." Melanie was sitting on her bed when she said this. "Unless, of course, our private jet comes and takes us away, then we won't be here." Melanie said sarcastically.
"Yeah, whatever." Ginny left the room, and immediately Melanie turned to Hermione.
"I know that something more happened admit it. It's so obvious, they way you guys couldn't keep your eyes off each other at dinner, don't deny it." Melanie started interrogating Hermione.
Hermione and Melanie had grown a lot closer over the last month, and Hermione considered her as another best friend. She thought that she might be able to tell Melanie what happened since she wasn't Ron's sister, Ron's best friend, or Ron's parents.
"You have to promise, and I swear, you have to really promise not to tell anyone."
"I swear it! Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye." Melanie made an 'x' over her heart as she said this.
"I trust you, so don't go telling."
"I WON'T!!" Melanie yelled out.
"Shhh, don't be too loud. OK, here it goes...Ron and I, well...we're sort of, you know...an item. I swear, if you tell anyone, you are so dead. This is just between you and me...no one else." Hermione was worried...maybe Melanie would tell...maybe Melanie was just putting up an act...maybe Hermione should stop being so paranoid.
"Wow, that's so exciting, ooooo...I'm so happy for you. I swear I will not tell a soul until you let me." Melanie's eyes were gleaming with joy for her friend.
"I'm back and my mouth feels minty fresh." Ginny appeared in the doorway striking a pose that made everyone laugh. Hermione caught Melanie's eye and gave her a warning glare. Melanie just nodded and continued to laugh.
"So Mel," said Ginny taking a seat on the floor with Hermione and Melanie. "How about Harry and you...you two were gone for quite a while when the rest of us stopped at The Three Broomsticks. I'm sensing it was more than just a walk around town." Ginny raised her eyebrows at Melanie.
"Thank you for asking, I was just waiting for someone to say something!" Melanie had the biggest grin on her face; she wasn't good at hiding her feelings for someone. "Well, when you guys went in we decided to take a walk. It was just a walk at first anyways. We were talking about how annoying it was that Hermione and Ron were fighting" Melanie smirked at Hermione after saying this. "And that we couldn't wait to start the school year, when out of the blue he says, quote 'Mel, you know what? I like you...I really like you. I just wanted you to know that.' Then he got all shy and was like, 'But, you know, you don't have to feel the same way, just to let you know.' And I was like, 'Oh my God, Harry! I really like you too.' Maybe not exactly that ditzy, but anyways. So we hugged each other and ran to hide behind a building, and then expressed how we felt for each other with our tongues, if ya know what I mean."
"Congrats Mel! I knew you had it in you!" Hermione elbowed Melanie in the side softly, and they all broke out into a fit of laughter once more.
They were all rolling around on the floor in tears from laughing so much, when they heard someone clear their throat in the doorway. The girls all sat up and wiped their eyes, and eventually stopped laughing. Harry and Ron were standing in the door looking at the girls as if they were crazy.
"Hey Harry!" Said Melanie and motioned for him to come in.
"You come in too, Ron. Don't be a stranger." Said Hermione trying her hardest not to just jump on top of Ron. Ron blew Hermione a kiss when no one was looking, except Mel caught it out of the corner of her eye and smiled at Hermione. Ron came in and sat down in between Harry and Ginny. Harry and Melanie were holding hands, but were still acting awkward as couples usually do at first. Except for the exception of Hermione and Ron, who had been friends for many years before this, and took their new relationship as just another level of their friendship.
"So, you guys finally made up! It's about time! With you two moping around all the time, it was depressing!" Ginny said to start a conversation going.
"Yeah, I'm relieved, it was the longest feud we've ever had...it was horrible!" Said Hermione.
"I couldn't have been able to stand it any longer...I just can't fight with 'Mione like that, it just gets me into a slump." Said Ron.
They all kept talking like this, laughing, and remembering all the good times they had had that summer, in spite of the Hermione and Ron fight, when all of a sudden.....
BANG
Everyone jumped and screamed. Melanie leaped into Harry's lap and curled up into a ball. Ginny and Hermione huddled against each other, and Ron fell backwards.
"What was that?" Ginny said shakily, as everyone recovered from the shock.
"I don't know, but..." But Harry was soon cut off as they heard Mrs. Weasley begin screaming.
"FRED! GEORGE! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU TWO! TESTING YOUR RIDICULOUS PRANK CANDIES AND SUCH! LOOK, YOU RUINED HERMIONE'S NEW BROOM. ARE YOU PROUD OF YOURSELVES!?!?"
Hermione didn't listen for anymore. She jumped up and ran from the room and hurried down the stairs with everyone staring after her. She reached the living room, gasping for air. Fred and George's faces were blackened, and their eyebrows were burned off. They were shrinking back towards the wall as their mother continued to yell at them. But Hermione's attention was drawn somewhere else. Her Firebolt lay on the floor in a million pieces, the straw was still burning.
"What did you do?" Hermione said in a small voice. Tears were already starting to swell in her eyes, her parents had gotten that Firebolt for her, and she had only gotten to ride on it once. Mrs. Weasley stopped yelling and came over to hug Hermione.
"Go on! Tell her what you did boys, she deserves to know what you fools did to her new broom. Tell her now!" Mrs. Weasley said furiously.
"Yes mum." Said Fred in barely a whisper.
"Well, you see 'Mione, we were trying out our newest joke product. It's called 'Student's Revenge'. It's an apple, and you give it to a teacher you really hate, and as soon as they bite into it, it's supposed to explode, but not this bad. We're really sorry...we didn't mean for this to happen. Fred bit into it, and it slipped from his hands and rolled across to the floor, and then it stopped next to your broom. We went to go pick it up when it exploded." George finished and looked at the ground; he couldn't stand looking Hermione in the eyes.
"I don't know how you guys do it! You always ruin EVERYTHING!" Hermione yelled with tears streaming down her face. She turned to storm out of the room, but ran into Ron, Harry, Melanie, and Ginny standing at the doorway.
"Come on 'Mione. We'll take you back to the room. They don't deserve to be in the same room as you." Ron said and put his arm around a sobbing Hermione and led her out of the living room and up the stairs, with the rest of the group following behind them.
Ron led Hermione to her bed once they got to the room and tucked her in. He bent over and kissed her on the forehead, which made Hermione feel a lot better, and she stopped whimpering. Then Harry came and kissed her on the cheek and gave her a hug.
"Night 'Mione." Harry and Ron said in unison. Then Ron said, "Try to get some sleep, we can go supply shopping tomorrow, it'll help keep your mind off it."
"Thanks Ron. You're a great friend. I love you guys." Hermione said and waved the boys out the door.
"OK 'Mione, I'm going to turn the light off, just forget about Fred and George and enjoy the rest of the summer. It's stupid to worry over one thing forever. We'll have loads of fun, I promise." Ginny said.
"Yeah, what Ginny said, and I think you're better than pouting around all summer. I'm sure you have someone to help you recover." Said Melanie, and winked at Hermione.
"Thanks you two. I'm feeling tired anyways. So, good night."
"Night."
"Night."
And with that, Hermione pushed Fred and George out of her mind, yawned, and fell into a deep sleep.
"So, Hermione, how'd you guys make up? Was it just like that? Seems a bit fast to me." Ginny was asking tons of questions, and would not stop. She had just gotten home with her family from supply shopping, and they were up in Ginny's room after eating a nice dinner.
