Chapter VI
Ginny was looking at Hermione, really confused. "But why he did that?"
"I don't know. I wish I do. And Ron."
"You have to talk to him."
"I tried, I tried yesterday, but he kept screaming at me like mad. He didn't want to listen."
"I think he got mad cause you pretended nothing had happened."
"I was afraid that Ron would do something stupid. Malfoy just have to look at him that Ron punches him."
Ginny smiled. "You should be more watchful."
"What do you mean?" Hermione asked, drying a tear with her sleeve.
"Ron just punches Malfoy when he insults you."
"No, you're mistaken. Ron hates Malfoy, so anything."
Ginny shook her head. "I think you just don't believe your eyes. The problem was not Malfoy, the problem was you. He could not handle seeing you being kissed by another guy. Of course, the idiot didn't realize it yet."
"Look, Ginny, I know that your brother is a little jealous, I mean, he doesn't like my friendship with Viktor, like he doesn't like your dates."
"You're wrong, and you know you are, you're not stupid. Anyway, you have to talk."
Hermione got up and went towards the window. She saw that the Gryffindor quidditch players were leaving the castle. "Ginny, do you have quidditch practice today?"
She jumped from the bed. "Oh, my God! I forgot it. I have to go." She ran to the door. Before leaving, she turned to Hermione. "Change your clothes and come to see us practicing. I bet Ron will be in a good mood, as it is not raining today." Ginny closed the door behind her.
"Ginny, you're late."
"Sorry, Harry." She got closer him. Harry froze. "I was with Hermione. She told me what happened."
"And.?"
"Hey! Will we practice or not?"
They looked at Ron, and then to each other. "Tell you later, Harry, but I asked her to come. Maybe Ron's mood gets better after a quidditch game."
Harry started to look for the snitch, while the chasers where practicing with Ron. A bludger was released and the beaters started to work also. Ron was doing really well, till he saw somebody at the stalls. He knew who it was at the moment he saw it. "Hermione".
"Wake up, Ron!" Dean yelled.
"Sorry." Ron's face went red.
"What distracted you?"
"Nothing. I just. just remembered that I didn't finish my potions lesson."
Dean gave him a strange look, and then returned to his position.
"What is she doing here?" Ron thought.
Hermione didn't know if it was a good idea. She also was angry at Ron, but, using her sense, she decided she'd better try to explain what really happened. After that, Ron could decide what to think. She waited patiently for the end of the practice and walked towards the dressing rooms.
