Chapter 14
A gentle breeze fluttered the curtains in Harry's room.Hermione stretched out on the bed.There was a warm spot beside her where Harry had slept.He was in the bathroom now.Hermione could see the light around the crack of the door frame.
"Good morning,sunshine,"Harry said,as he walked out of the bathroom.
"Good morning to you,too,"Hermione said,sitting up and rubbing her eyes.
"Ready for breakfast?"Harry asked.
"Yeah,just let me get my books,"Hermione said.
"Mione!We have that,um,what'd they call it,orientation week,"Harry said with a grin.
"Oh,yeah!I forgot.I'm always so used to getting up and going to class,"Hermione said.
"I can tell,"Harry said,his grin growing broader.
Hermione got off the bed and went into the bathroom.
"Harry!Could you get me my wand,please?"Hermione called.
"At your service,"Harry said."Accio wand!"
The wand came to Harry from Hermione's dorm almost instantly.He plucked it out of the air and handed it to Hermione,who was looking at herself in the mirror.
"Straighteni mela,"Hermione said,pointing her wand at her hair.Her hair straigtened out and then curled into ringlets that framed her face.
"Wow!Where'd you learn that charm?"Harry asked curiously.
"I don't remember,"Hermione said.
"Let me try that!"Harry said and got his wand from his nightstand."Straighteni mela!"
Harry's hair did not do what Hermione's had done;instead,it turned into ringlets that just stuck straight up into the air.
"Harry!Let me fix that for you!"Hermione said and walked over to him."Straighteni!"
Instantly,his hair straightened out.
"The 'mela' is what makes the curls,Harry,"Hermione said.
"Oh.Well, I tried!"Harry said,defending himself.
Hermione walked back over to the mirror and studied herself thoughtfully.'Makeup'she decided.
"Cosmetique!"she cried and once more pointed the wand at herself.A bit of makeup instantly appeared on her face.
"Ok,I'm ready for breakfast,"Hermione said.
"Finally,"Harry sighed playfully.
"Harry!You know it didn't take that long!"Hermione said indignantly.
"Calm down.I was just kidding!"Harry defended himself.
"Can we please go to breakfast now??"Hermione asked,"I want some breakfast!"
"Alright,already,"Harry said.
Hermione walked out of Harry's bedroom,followed by Harry.They walked down the staircase into the common room.Ron was sitting on the couch.He glared at them.
"Um,good morning,"Harry said tentatively.
"Harry,exactly WHAT was Hermione doing in YOUR bedroom?"Ron said angrily,his blue eyes flashing.
"I wasn't doing anything.I had a nightmare last night and I crawled into Harry's bed,"Hermione said smoothly before Harry could say a word.
"Is that what happened,Harry?That's it?"Ron said,disbelief written all over his face.
"Yeah.Why would she lie?"Harry said.
"I dunno,"Ron said,"I don't know what possesed me there.It was just for a minute there that for some reason I was angry at you because you seemed so happy and I...only feel like half a person."
"Ron,it's ok.I'm sure that somewhere in this school there is someone for you,"Hermione said, giving him a hug.
"How do you know?"Ron said,curiosity evident on his face.
"I just know,"Hermione said with a secretive smile.
With that,they all walked out of the common room together.Ron with a forlorn look,Harry's face impassive but his eyes sparkling, and Hermione with a knowing smile on her face that she couldn't get rid of because she knew who had a crush on one of her very best friends.

Ginny shot a look over in Draco's direction.He caught her eye and gave her a slight smile.Just a twitch of his lips,really.She saw him grab a quill from someone and scribble something down on a piece of parchment.He quickly tied it to his owl's leg.The owl flew up into the air and soared over to Ginny.It read
Meet me by the pond later.We can go to Hogsmeade together,if you like.
Draco
She flipped the parchment over,took the quill from the owl she hadn't realized it was holding earlier and wrote
I would love to.We have to be careful not to let my brothers see us.They would flip and owl Mum.She'd send me a Howler telling me to stay away from you.
Ginny
Ginny retied the parchment and the owl flew off.It landed by Draco,who removed the paper and read it quickly.He glanced over at her and smiled that smile again.
'Ooh,he's so cute when he curves his lips like that..So sexy,'Ginny thought to herself.
