Summary: Ron gets bit by a bug and Hermione has to look after him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I can't believe we are doing this" said Hermione as her and her two best friends walked through the forbidden forest.

"We have to Hermy if we don't then the centaurs will never like humans again" said Ron.

Hermione blushed at her pet name. It was no secret between the girls that Hermione had a huge crush on Ron. The only girl that didn't know was her.

"Yeah Hermione we have to do this it's important" said Harry.

They herd hooves coming towards them and she sunk back into the boys. She was relived when Ron put a hand on her shoulder.

"What are you doing here" asked bane in a menacing voice.

"We came to call a truce between the centaurs and humans" said Harry.

"NO get out now" screamed Ronan

"Now see sen." Hermione was cut of as bane went up onto his hind legs and screamed "NOW"

That was enough to scare them into running away. They ran as fast as they could through the forest.

"ARGH" screamed Ron as he fell to the ground.

When Hermione herd his cry she spun around and screamed herself. Ron was covered in what looked like worms with lots of legs. She stood him up and brushed the worms of him. She hoped that they weren't the poisonous wormepedes she had herd of.

"Ron are there any in your cloths" she asked when she was sure they had all gone.

Ron who had been in a state of shock till then snapped out of it and started screaming. He ripped of his shirt and started clawing at his skin.

"Ron calm down there's nothing the." Hermione stopped short when she saw a lump in his skin making its way to his neck.

"STAY STILL" screamed Harry whipping out his wand.

"No Harry you might hurt Ron" she said shakily.

"We better get him back to school" said Harry more calmly.

* * * When they arrived at school they started to make there way to the hospital wins when suddenly Ron stopped dead in his tracks.

"Whets wrong Ron" asked Hermione putting a hand on his shoulder.

Suddenly Ron collapsed onto her. She put her arms under his then they took him to the hospital wing.

* * *

"whets wrong with him?" Hermione asked madam pomfrey.

"The bug is in his brain" she said solemnly "it will take a week to come out of him and he will need someone to be with him at ALL times. It is best if it's the same person all the time"

"Ok Harry you will need to look after him" said Hermione.

"I can't! We have a quiddich mach against slitherin in three days and we need to practice"

"Looks like its you then miss granger. You will need to sleep in the same bed as him and you can not leave him alone for more than 20 minutes." She demanded. She looked at Hermione's horrified face. "He will be normal Ron but he won't be able to speak. The bug might get emotionally attached to you. He might have mood swings. So be careful" she added.

Suddenly Ron stirred and they all looked down on him. He opened his eyes sleepily and said "huh"

"Miss Granger albus has informed me than you and Mr Weasley will have your own room as boys can't go up into the girl's dormitories and we can't put you in with all those boys."

"Ok" said Hermione gloomily.
