Chapter 4 ~ Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Disclaimer: You know the deal, JK Rowling created these characters,
not me. Sorry for not writing for a while, school's been terribly
difficult these past few weeks (a.k.a seven million papers due.) OK,
now onto the chapter. I think it's my favorite so far. O, and also
thanks so much for reviewing! Let me know what you think!
SLAM! The door to Hermione's dorm room closed with a noise as loud as
thunder.
"You OK?", Ginny asked, startled by Hermione's rather loud entrance.
"O, I'm fine! Just perfect! Delightful even! OK, maybe just fine. No,
OK? I had an awful day! Possibly the worst day of my life. How did you
ever guess?", she said in despair.
"Well, I me—" but Ginny was cut off my Hermione's quivering voice.
"Avery.... He , he, he's just such a... a, a BASTARD!", Ginny's jaw
dropped. Never. Ever. Not once had she heard Hermione cuss. Rather
Hermione was always the one that preached to everyone to wash out
their foul mouths and put an end to cussing forevermore. But Hermione
just kept on talking, "He just thinks it's alright to tramp around
flirting with other girls, like CHO CHANG! I mean, since when did she
become..." , Hermione stopped for a moment to find the appropriate word
for her emotions. Her eyes lit up as she punched her fist in the air,
"FIT!" But Cho had always attracted the guys, especially when she was
held back a year on account of spending a year abroad in Taiwan with
her family in what would have been her seventh year. Hermione
immediately realized what she said and plopped down her bed with a
thud. At this point, pearl shaped tears were rolling down her face. "
I just, doesn't he like me? Doesn't anybody like me? I mean, does he
think that just because some harpie, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,
disorganized Divination phony preaches to us about experimentation,
and peace, and love that I'm supposed to be OK, with my BOYFRIEND
running around with another girl. I think not! And let me tell you
something Ginny, we are over! I never want to see his beautifully
chiseled chin again! Never, you hear me! And, I ..... I miss him....."
Hermione was wailing now. And Ginny was totally flabbergasted. She'd
never seen Hermione do anything like this before. Well, come to think
of it Hermione had never really had a boyfriend before. But Ginny knew
all too well that if Harry ever did anything like that to her, she'd
be acting the same way, and furthermore, Hermione would be there for
her every step of the way.

It was a Saturday, so Harry and Ron were practicing Quidditch as
usual. They soared through the sky, the twigs of their broom made
whistling sounds as trails behind them. It was a crisp autumn day, and
his face was red from the wind. His tumbled across his forehead, messy
and tossled by the wind. He loved it. This was by far his favorite way
to spend his time. And when Ron was there, it just made it ever so
more fun!
His mind had been racing with thoughts of the date that he and Eden
had for the next day. He had promised to take her and show her around
Hogwart, even though he knew all too well that he and Ginny had a date
at Honeydukes that very same day. But now that he was on his beloved
broom, his mind was empty, clear of confusion, and his heart pounded
with adrenaline.

"Hello, Harry Potter". Eden said in her fluttering voice. Harry
blushed, and buried his now rouged face in his heavy Ralph Lauren
sweater that Hermione had gotten him for Christmas last year.
According to Hermione, "It was all the rage!" in the muggle world.
"Shall we go then?' Harry said in a slight whisper.
"Of course! I'm so very excited. I've heard so much about Hogsmeade!"
Eden said with excitement. Except she didn't pronounce it correctly,
rather she said Hogs-me-aid. Harry laughed at this, and Eden blushed
realizing her mistake. Harry patted her on the back and started
forward. What was I thinking! He thought to himself, but he kept on
walking and she grabbed his hand to slow him down. She looked down and
his hand in hers and smiled an enchanting smile. Harry's heart skipped
a beat. He rubbed her hand with his. It was cold, and her puzzle
shaped ring hurt his hand as it slid through his. But he didn't care.
He didn't know why he was falling for her. He knew all too well that
he already had a girlfriend, and that Ron would kill him if he ever
hurt Ginny. He smiled and looked into Eden's dazzling eyes. Her blue
pea coat matched her eyes and complimented her milky white skin. He
leaned in, staring into her eyes. He felt something special, and
different when he was around her. Their noses were inches apart.
But out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of red hair, and
he knew that feeling wouldn't last for long.
