Hermione looked at her door. "Lavender! Parvati! You scared me!" Hermione relaxed and turned back to her clothes that were laid neatly on her bed. She picked up her skirt and pulled it on. She turned around to see the girls looking at her.
"Well?" Lavender asked.
"Well, what?" Hermione asked them.
"You know what. That scene down in the common room."
"What about it?" Hermione asked pulling a turtleneck sweater over her head.
"What were you and Ron doing outside all that time?"
"I was only outside for a few minutes."
"So, what happened with you and Ron? Did you catch up on what we walked in on this morning?" Parvati added suggestively.
"No, McGonagall found us in about the same position you two did."
"Oh. That's tough."
Ron changed quickly out of his clothes and sat at the end of his bed pulling his shoes on. His luck was terrible. He'd almost kissed her twice. ALMOST. He was sick and tired of almost doing things.
Almost making Quidditch team. Almost acing transfiguration. Almost kicking Malfoy's arse. Almost winning the girl he'd pined over for such a long time.
The door to the dormitory opened and shut and Ron looked over to see Harry enter. "Hi Harry."
"Hullo." Harry said as he took a seat on Ron's bed. "How did things go with Hermione?"
"Huh?"
"She sure was looking for you for a long time. How long were you two together?"
"Only a few minutes. Wait.did you say that she was looking for me?"
"Yeah, didn't she tell you?"
"Yes, but why was she looking for me?"
"Oh, so she didn't tell you?"
"Tell me what Harry?"
"Nothing, Ron. I think she should tell you. I'm just going to keep my mouth shut."
Ron looked back down at his shoes. Harry knew something he didn't and that brought all his paranoid feelings back to him.
An hour later Harry, Ron and Hermione met in the common room. They left together as they did every night since they came to Hogwarts.
Harry sensed the awkwardness between Hermione and Ron and stepped between them. He felt bad for his two friends. They felt so fondly of each other, and neither had guts enough to admit it.
He wished on of them would get the courage to tell the other one how they felt. Before it was too late. Ron almost lost his chance with her once. Viktor Krum. Neither Ron nor Harry knew what happened between the two, and every once and a while Hermione would receive a mysterious letter he and Ron reckoned was from Krum.
The Great Hall was already full by the time the three arrived. They were greeted warmly by fellow Gryffindors as they sat down at the table.
Hermione sat across the table from Harry and next to Ron, as all the boys talked about Quidditch waiting for their plates to fill with food.
Hermione turned to Lavender and Parvati. She listened to their conversation, mentally taking notes about everything that they said.
"Oh, don't look now but, I think Seamus is looking at you Lavender!" Parvati squealed as she looked at Lavender.
"REALLY?!" she turned her head and saw that in fact, Seamus didn't appear to be looking at her.
"I said don't look!"
Hermione shook her head. They didn't know how annoying they were. She almost felt bad for them. She was surprised that they even had friends.
And the fact that they liked Professor Trelawny and that divination was their favorite class made her dislike them even more. They were good at heart; they just drove her nuts.
She decided she couldn't listen any longer and turned to hear the boys' conversation. "Then he used the Wronski feint, and faked them all out!" Dean said as they all laughed.
Hermione yawned and stretched her arms above her head. She'd had a long day, and was worn out. She finished her food, and decided to go back to her room, and get to bed. She would've told someone where she was going, but they all seemed so wrapped up in their own conversations.
Ron watched as Hermione got up from the table and walked out of the great hall.
Hermione opened the door to her room. She changed out of her clothes and put on her comfiest pajamas. She was tired, and need to rest before school resumed the next day.
She turned to crawl into her bed and saw a note resting on her pillow. She walked over to her bed.
Hermione looked at her door. "Lavender! Parvati! You scared me!" Hermione relaxed and turned back to her clothes that were laid neatly on her bed. She picked up her skirt and pulled it on. She turned around to see the girls looking at her.
