myself. I am so glad the weekend is here! Only and hour and a half till I
am out of work, WAHOO!! Here is 3.
Chapter 3: The Heartbroken Red-Head
Hermione appeared in the Weasley's sitting room and without any warning, saw a head of blonde come at her, "LUNA NO!!" Hermione ducked quickly and turned to see Luna land hard on the floor. She had lunged at Hermione, fist ready.
"What the hell is wrong with you Luna?" she looked from the blonde to Ginny who was holding Luna back. Ginny was having a hell of a struggle when Fred ran into the room and was helping her.
"This is all your fault, Granger. He left because of you!" Luna shouted at her.
Hermione was stunned, "Look I don't know what you are talking about. I just got here from a rather enjoyable honeymoon in Paris with my HUSBAND! This has nothing to do with me." Hermione felt anger surge inside of her. Luna was accusing her of being the reason Ron left. She quickly said something she knew she would regret, "Maybe your loony ways just drove him crazy and realized he was making a huge mistake!"
"Hermione!" screeched Ginny, Fred contained his laugh.
"Just let me go! I want to get the hell away from her!"
Reluctantly, Ginny and Fred released Luna. In a quick second, Luna apparated out of sight.
"Why did you say that?" asked Ginny.
Hermione looked at Ginny in shock, "Are you kidding? Did you see what she just did, she is insane!"
"And this is news?"
"Fred, get the hell out of here!" shouted Ginny. She glared at her brother and he left with a hearty smile.
"Ginny, are you going to tell me what's going on?" asked Hermione as she folded her arms in front of her.
"You sure you want to here it. I know you aren't one for gossip, especially if it's about you."
Hermione breathed hard, "Ginny, I just left a very handsome man, who just happens to be my husband, in a very extravagant hotel suite in the most romantic city in the world. All for someone whom I thought was my friend, only to arrive to her trying to attack me. I think I deserve some sort of explanation."
Ginny looked at her friend with impatience and then sighed, "Alright sit down."
Hermione glared at Ginny, "I would rather stand thanks."
"Damn it Herm, sit down!" shouted Ginny as she pointed at the couch.
Hermione was a bit startled by her friend. She had never heard Ginny shout at anyone that harsh, "Okay," and she plopped onto the couch.
Ginny followed and sat next to her, "Well, I guess it started on the train ride back to London after the wedding. Ron was very quiet, and for Ron this is very strange," Hermione nodded, "Well, first I asked if he was alright and he just said he had a stomach ache. So we shrugged it off, knowing he drank enough butter beers to fill the Grand Canyon."
Hermione tilted her head, "How do you-"
Ginny raised her hand, "A book, alright, now are you going to let me finish?" Hermione nodded, "Alright, this right off should have told us something was wrong. Ron never drinks that much in front of mum and dad. Well, a bit later, he was still sulking so I asked Harry to talk to him. He went and sat next to him, and then they left the compartment. I looked at Luna, and she just looked, well, upset. I had never seen her like that before, ever."
"Did she know what was wrong with him?" asked Hermoine.
"Now, I know she did. But, Harry and Ron came back about a half an hour later. Ron looked even more upset. And Harry looked stunned. When he sat back down next to me I asked him what was wrong. He looked at me and kissed me, he said 'you'll find out soon enough.'"
Ginny stood, "We left them at the train station. As they walked away, Ron took Luna's hand, so I just, you know, kinda forgot about it. Until, of course Luna was pounding on our door at five o'clock this morning. She stormed in past Harry, ranting and raving about how she hated you and she always knew he never got over you."
Hermione eyes were wide in shock, "Ginny, did she tell you what he said?"
"I got her to calm down and I made her some tea. That is about when I owled you. I brought Luna the tea and told her to explain everything. Basically Hermione, they got home and Luna said he just flipped out. Started throwing things across the room and cursing. She was scared, she didn't know what to do. At one point she heard him say under his breath, 'I've lost her, I lost her to Draco fucking Malfoy.'"
"Ginny?" Hermione looked at Ginny with desperation. She was speechless, "I- I didn't know. I thought he only said that because of all that had been going on, I didn't-"
Ginny raised her hand again, "I know Herm. That is what I thought too. Guess we were wrong, huh?"
Hermione nodded slowly and the girls sat in silence for a bit. Ginny broke the silence, "Ron had left while Luna was asleep. She woke up to find him gone. That is when she came straight here and Harry went looking for him. I haven't heard from him since."
--------
Draco was stirred by knocking at the suite door. Thinking it was Hermione he stood quickly and walked towards the door, "Who is it?"
No one answered, just another knock, "Who is it?" He looked in the key hole, he stepped back and opened the door, "What are you doing here?"
---------
A/N: Don't hate me! I started this on Friday and just got back to it. I warned you guys! Anyway, bet you think its Ron at the door huh? Guess we will see! Please R&R! Thanks!!
