Chapter 4

When they finally settled down they sat down to eat breakfast. Ron looked over at Hermione and felt the weirdest felling in his whole entire life.

'She's cute! No she isn't! CU- SHUT UP!! She's just Herm!' Ron thought

Hermione caught Ron staring at her and said:

"Ron what are you staring at me for?" she asked

Ron blushed

"Nothing really I'm just- I'm just staring at-at-at your chair!" he said

"Yeah right" said hermione

"It's true!" said Ron

"Ron stop flirting" said Harry teasingly

Ron looked harry coldly but blushed. They finished breakfast and went up to their rooms.

After a while Hermione and a snowy white cat came in to Ron's room

"Hi Herm, Shanks" said Ron

Harry looked at the cat with a confused expression on his face.The cat purred and lied down on the floor

"Herm, did ya get a new cat?" asked Harry

Hermione laughed and said:

"No it's Shanks"

"She's an animagus?" asked Harry

"No she's an Emortheon," said Ron

Harry looked so confused you'd die of laughter

"An Emortheon is somebody that could turn into someone when they wanna but when they turn into their animal they have a silver star on their forehead" Ron explained

The cat turned back into Shanks and said:

"Yes and can annoy people when they want to" she said looking at Ron

"No" said Ron

"Yes" said Shanks

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

Hermione rolled her eyes while Harry snorted.

"Hey can you two shut up? It's kinda annoying you know" said Harry after a while

"Told ya I can annoy!" said Shanks

The day of going back to school came. They got on the Hogwarts express as usual and looked for an empty compartment. Then finally they found one.

"I've been waiting so long for this" said harry

"Why?" asked Ron

"Dunno I have a feeling that this will be a good year, I mean a better and peaceful year without any Death Eaters you know" Harry said shrugging and noticed that Ron and Hermione were staring at each other, Harry grinned and caught Shanks's eye.

Shanks cleared her throat and said:

"Ron, Herm want some sweets cuz I don't think you two wanna be disturbed so er... maybe I could buy some" said Shanks awkwardly

Ron and Hermione blushed, got up immediately and looked away. They bought sweets, ate them and put on they're school uniform. When they arrived they got off, went into a carriage and headed to the school.

"God I'm hungry" said Ron breaking the silence

"Ron, if ya didn't notice you're always hungry" said Shanks weakly

"Why is everything so quiet?" asked Hermione

They shrugged and stared out of the windows or at each other (ron and hermione).

Next day

'What a day! Double Care of magical creatures, Double Charms, Double Transfiguration and Double history of magic A none potions, double day!'

They all laughed

'Yeah a nice improvement for the 6th year's right?' said a voice behind them

They turned around to see Fred and George behind them

'Did you hear? The next Hogsmeade trip is next week so we're gonna buy things from Zonko's and we're gonna play a prank on all of u since we dunno who did the prank on us' said Fred

They all looked at each other worried
