The Halloween Ball was only a week away and both Ron and Hermione still did
not have someone to go with. Harry, had a date, a Gryffindor named Diana,
and Ginny was going with Neville.
Hermione was running down to Gryffindor common room remembering that she forgot to do her Charms homework, so she rushed down to one of the tables in the Common Room and began do her homework while Ron, and Harry were playing a game of Wizard's Chess, in which Harry was losing very badly at. "Awe, Why do you have to be so good in Wizard's Chess, Ron?" Harry asked him after losing very badly at it. "Because I've been playing for years, and I know how to cheat! Not that I did or anything..." he added seeing Harry raise an eyebrow at him. Hermione meanwhile was still working on her Charms homework. "Oh...this is just too easy!" she said already half way done with it. Harry's Date Diana walked inside and picked up a book near Hermione : Hogwarts, A History "ooh, May I borrow this, Please Hermione?" she asked wanting to read it again. "Sure, Diana..." she said finishing her homework. "there, all done..." she said putting her finished homework away as Diana sat in an Armchair near Harry reading the book.
Hermione then looked at Ron wondering if he has a Date for the Ball, and if he does then who. And while Hermione was starring at Ron, he was thinking the same thing about Hermione. Harry, starting to get real bored got up. "Hey, Diana, Do you....erm...want to go for a walk or something?" He asked wanting to do something since he was so bored "Sure, Harry" she said putting the book down on a near table, They then walked out of Gryffindor Tower and walked away, which Meant that Hermione and Ron were all alone in the usually very busy Common Room.
Ron stood up and walked over to Hermione "Hey, Hermione, do you have a date for the ball yet?" he asked out of curiosity. "No, not yet, what about you, Ron?" she too asked out of curiosity hoping that he didn't. "Nope ..." he replied staring at her wondering what she would say if he were to ask her to go with him. "well, I was wondering if you would....erm...like to g-"he was cut off by someone running into him " whoa! Ginny! Watch where you're going!" he said helping her back up.
"Sorry, Ron, I just got a letter from mum who wanted to know if either you or me have gotten a date yet..." she said looking at the letter.
"Well, neither of us does." He said knowing that Ginny would definitely not have a date. "What do you mean neither of us?" she said with an eyebrow raised at him.
"Well, It's not like you have a date, Ginny" he said sitting down "Well, as a matter of fact, I do, Ronald!" she said starting to get a bit Angry at him. "What! You can't! "He said standing up. "Of course I can! Just because you don't have a date yet does not mean that I can't have one!" she said getting really angry with him. "Yes it does! Well, Who is it then!"
"Nembill" Ginny muttered. "Huh? I can't understand you when you're mumbling.." Ginny took a deep breath "Neville, alright? Neville asked me so I said yes." "Neville?" he said sitting down again feeling relieved "yes, Neville" Ginny said walking up towards the Girls' Dormitories.
"Good, Neville is ok for her. If she were to go with anyone else.... I would-" "Have a big tantrum," Hermione said sighing. "No! I would.... I don't know," he said shrugging "I just know it wouldn't be good..." He said standing up looking at his watch "Well, I'd better get to bed.." he said looking at Hermione "see you in the Morning then.." He then walked up towards the Boys' Dormitories. Hermione got up and heading to bed as well.
The next morning Hermione woke up early, got dressed and then headed down to the Common Room, There were Only three other people in there: Neville, Dean, and Ron. Hermione walked towards the portrait heading down for Breakfast. Ron got up and followed Hermione "hey, are you going down to Breakfast?" he asked her feeling really hungry like usual.
"Yep, I sure am." She said walking down the stairs that headed to the Great Hall. "Mind if I join you?" he asked walking beside her. "Not at all.." she replied walking down another flight of stairs.
Ron was feeling the urge to ask her out to the Halloween Ball; after all it's only six days away. Ron then stopped walking and just stood there. Hermione must have noticed this because she then stopped too and walked back up to Ron "What's wrong?"
"Oh...erm...Nothing...nothing at all..." he lied. "There must be something wrong, you don't just walk and then all of a sudden stop in the middle of it for no reason, or is that a hobby of yours?" she asked standing next to him.
He shrugged "I was just thinking" he said watching a portrait of a Cow eating some Grass and an Old Lady looking for the Cow, since she had lost her glasses she couldn't find the cow.
"Uh, Oh, Ron don't be doing that! You'll hurt yourself!" she said feeling very hungry. Ron laughed lightly "Ok, hermione I have got to ask you something, If I don't I'll go crazy!"
"Alright then, ask away" she said looking up at him. He took a deep breath "here it goes....willyougototheballwithme?" he said in one word and very fast too. Hermione had a rather confused look on her face "what?" she said not understanding him. "Will....You....Go...To The Dance With Me?" he said slower.
Hermione just stood there open mouthed. "Hermione?" he said waving his hand in front her face. "Huh? Oh...umm...." She smiled "I would love to Ron" she said still looking at him.
"Oh, I knew you'd say that, well I had to try anyway-wait a minute, did you say Yes?" he said not believing his ears.
"No, I said that I would Love to." she said still smiling a bit. "Really?" he said smiling.
"Yes, Ron, I would absolutely love to go with you." She said starting to walk to the Great Hall again still smiling. Ron followed her smiling real big. Hermione walked into the Great Hall and sat down across form Harry at the Gryffindor table still smiling. Ron sat down next to Her also still smiling. "What are you two so Happy about?" Harry asked pouring himself another bowl of cereal. "Nothing really..." Hermione said putting a pancake on her plate and pouring some syrup on it. Ron still smiling mouthed to Harry " We're Going To The Ball Together!" he said putting some Bacon, Eggs, and a waffle on his plate. "Weally? Wow, wat's weat!" Harry said with a mouth full of Cereal. "I know..." Ron said digging in. Hermione looked at Ron and smiled then finished eating.
