Chapter 10.
Hermione was looking for Ginny. She wasn't going to tell Ginny what Harry had told her, but she decided that Ginny still needed talking to about the way she had been acting around the guys just lately. Even though Ginny had assured her it was just friendly fun, Hermione didn't buy it and was sure it ran deeper than that.
Hermione knew that Ginny had left early from the dorm that morning and wondered why. Hermione headed down the spiral staircase into the common room. No still no sign of Ginny. Maybe she had gone for an early breakfast, a break from all those boys perhaps? Hermione decided this was her best bet and started towards the Great Hall, She didn't have time to wait for Harry and Ron if she wanted to talk to Ginny alone.
The vast Great Hall was quite empty apart from the majority of the teachers and a couple of early bird students who looked half asleep and near enough falling into their breakfasts. But Hermione was troubled to find that none of these students were Ginny Weasley. Oh well Hermione thought, I'll just have some breakfast and see if she turns up.
About fifteen minutes later the Hall was beginning to fill up of sleepy students. Hermione saw Harry and Ron walk towards her. "Hi Harry, Hi Baby" Hermione said, leaning over to kiss Ron as he took a seat beside her. Harry imitated vomiting. "Have either of you seen Ginny" Hermione asked. "No" Ron replied at the same time as Harry said "Why?" Hermione didn't even answer Harry, she just gave him a look that said: I promised I wouldn't say anything!
As Harry, Ron and Hermione were leaving the Great hall about ten minutes before lessons, Hermione spotted Ginny walk into the Hall. Hermione told Ron and Harry that she would meet them in lesson and rushed through the swarming crowd at the entrance and went back into the Great Hall.
"Hey Ginny" Hermione called as she got near. "Hi Hermione" Ginny replied smiling. "Ginny you haven't been avoiding me have you?" "Don't be silly whatever would make you think that?" Ginny asked. "Well it's just that I haven't spoken to you much lately and I noticed you left the dorm really early this morning" Hermione replied. "Well I just wanted a nice walk. Of course I haven't been avoiding you, you're my best friend!" Ginny exclaimed. "Well ok but I do need to talk to you. Will you meet me on the Quidditch pitch at break please?" Hermione asked. "Sure" Ginny said although, looking rather puzzled "I'll see you then" "Ok Gin Cya" Hermione called rushing off towards Lesson.

Hermione didn't have far to walk she had just had Herbology in the greenhouses. Ron had been a little disgruntled when she said she had to be somewhere, but a long kiss had remedied this and he had walked off with Harry grinning like a loon. Besides, Hermione thought this gave Harry and Ron a chance to spend dome time together, as they hadn't been lately. Hermione smiled pondering that if Harry and Ginny did get it together then she and Ron wouldn't have to worry about spending more time together.
On the way to the pitch Hermione bumped into Cho Chang. "Hey Cho" "HI Hermione" "Look I heard what happened between you and Harry" Hermione said. "I'm sorry it didn't work out" She finished. "Yeah it was a shame but I now think Harry was right. We really will be better off as friends I think." Cho replied. "I'm glad you feel that way" "Thanks Hermione, tell Harry I said hi." "Sure see you around Cho" "Bye" Cho called as she walked off smiling. Maybe she has her eye on someone else now Hermione thought.
Hermione hugged her Robe tightly around herself to prevent the biting wind from getting at her. She saw Ginny waiting by the stands for her. "Hey Hermione" Ginny said as she got near. "So what did you want to speak about?" "Don't moan but it's about this boy thing" Ginny groaned but let Hermione continue. "I don't believe that its just company you are doing this for, Hass it got something to do with Harry? Because you've admitted you still like him, and I can't help but think there's some kinda link to all of this." Hermione said. "Ok, Ok, you got me" Hermione went to reply to this but Ginny cut her off. "Don't say anything until you have heard my reasons" Ginny said. Hermione nodded.
"Ok well that night you and Ron weren't around Harry was telling me about his feelings for Cho. Then a day or so later he told me he liked someone else, and that girl had used to like him, of course I thought it could be me" Ginny looked at Hermione to see if this was new news to her. It appeared so by her expression. Ginny Hermione just didn't buy it and was sure continued "So I decided I had to know if it was me or not, that's why I started hanging around with guys to see if Harry got jealous. He did look a little angry sometimes, but not as much as you and Ron got, so my little plan didn't really work." Ginny finished.
"Well that clears up a lot" Hermione said. She decided to give Ginny the same advice as she had given Harry, then she could sit back knowing they both like each other, and watch them get Together, and neither of them would be none the wiser. I can play matchmaker, Hermione thought.
"Ok Ginny obviously that plan obviously isn't working. I happen to know that Cho is completely out of the picture now - " "Did Harry tell you that?" Ginny cut in beaming "Did he tell you who he liked?" She also asked Hermione.
Hermione was expecting this and didn't want to lie to her friend, but she also wanted Ginny and Harry get together by themselves, like she and Ron had. They wouldn't know she had given them a little push!
"Yes Harry told me he is over Cho, but he didn't tell me who he likes. He just said she's an incredibly beautiful girl" Hermione replied surprised at how brilliant this was working. "Anyway Ginny I think you should tell Harry how you feel at least he'll know then and, I have a feeling it may be you, although Harry never said" Hermione finished quickly.
"I just might Hermione, I Just might, Now come on lets go inside I'm freezing" Ginny said pulling Hermione towards the castle.
Things are definitely looking up; Ginny thought Harry doesn't like Cho anymore! I may just get what I've been wishing for, for four whole years!
