Chapter 2

Malfoy, Muggle-lover and Mudblood.

Ok so here's the deal, Hermione and Ron have realised they're love for one another and they're now dating but will it all go as smoothly as planned?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hermione and Ron pulled apart from their kiss and looked at each other and smiled.

"Well that was erm...nice" Said Ron awkwardly, Hermione giggled.

"Yes, it was wasn't it Ronald?" said Hermione while smirking, she looked down at her watch and saw the time was 2 o'clock in the afternoon. "Ron, we'd better go it's 2 o'clock and we've got to be at the carriages by 2:30."

"Er..right, yeah the coaches, got it!" stumbled Ron

"Oh come on you idiot!" laughed Hermione while pulling Ron up by the hands, they walked back to the carriages in silence, hand in hand. Once at the carriages they saw Harry who was waiting patiently for them.

"Aha, here come the little lovebirds! How was your little kissing session by the shrieking shack?" Asked Harry with a smirk.

"How do you know about that!" exclaimed Ron as they all clambered into a carriage.

"You'd better check to see if I've taken my dad's cloak with me before our next Hogsmeade trip Ronniekins!"

"Shut up Harry!"

"Hey I'm only winding you up mate, don't take me so seriously."

Just as Harry finished the sentence Malfoy walked past with Pansy Parkinson, Crabbe and Goyle, when Malfoy realised that Ron was in the carriage they were passing he rose his voice to a near shout.

"Yes Pansy, Goyle, Crabbe and I where simply walking towards the shrieking shack when we saw Weasel and the Mudblood snogging! Imagine it! A muggle-lover and a Mudblood, a MUDBLOOD pansy can you imagine it? I'm just glad he can't hear me now or the ridiculous redhead might do something to me like curse me? Or hit me or even worse Pansy! Smear Mudblood grime over me!"

At that moment Ron dived out of the carriage and onto Malfoy, He and Ron where on the floor, Ron was pummelling every inch of Malfoy's body he could reach, Ron sunk his fist into Malfoy's stomach, picked up some gravel and threw it into Malfoy's face! Ron stood up and kicked Malfoy as hard as he could in the face until Harry had to restrain him. Malfoy stood up, blood poured over his clothes and his once white-blonde hair was covered in red from his blood that had poured onto the floor, Crabbe and Goyle picked Malfoy up and carried him to the next carriage with Pansy Parkinson shrieking with shock of what had just happened. Hermione meanwhile turned on Ron.

"RON! YOU COULDN'T LEAVE IT COULD YOU? I DON'T GIVE ONE BLOODY DAMN WHAT MALFOY THINKS OF ME AND NOW YOU COULD BE EXPELLED ALL BECAUSE OF A FEW INSULTS TOWARDS ME! HONESTLY! YOUR SO STUPID SOMETIMES, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IF YOU GET EXPELLED YOU EDUCATION WILL BE RUINED, YOU'LL NEVER MAKE IT AS AN AUROR, YOU'LL NEVER STAND A CHANCE OF BECOMING HEAD BOY.." shouted Hermione before being interrupted by Ron.

"HERMIONE! DO YOU THINK I CAREA BOUT BECOMING HEAD BOY? IT'LL MENA BEING LIKE PERCY! HE'S A SCUMBAG! AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT HOGWARTS ANYMORE MALFOY WAS INSULTING YOU AND I COULDN'T TAKE IT ANY MORE! I CAN'T IGNORE THESE THINGS LIKE YOU CAN, AND IF I REMEMBER RIGHTLY YOU DIDN'T START HAVING A BITCH FIT AT HARRY WHEN HE PUNCHED MALFOY, YOU JUST TOLD HIM HE WAS WRONG, DO YOU LOVE HIM MORE THAN ME? IS IT BECAUSE HE'S FAMOUS YOU LOVE HIM SO MUCH? OR ARE YOU SHAGGING HIM BEHIND MY BACK?!" screamed Ron

"Oi Ron, don't bring me into this. I haven't done anything!" Said Harry

Hermione however just stood staring at Ron with her mouth open in shock, it was awhile before she spoke again but when she did her voice was in a trembling, weak voice of rage.

"How...DARE...you! How dare you accuse me of sleeping with Harry behind your back, or even sleep with him at all Ronald Weasley! Harry is like a brother to me and you accusing me of sleeping with him willy nilly is absurd! You make me feel like a complete tart sometimes Ron---"

"That's because you are don't think I haven't seen you flirting, you flirt with me, with Harry, with Vicky---"

"He's called Viktor and I do not flirt with Harry! How dare you Ron how dare you! You are the most insensitive, foul, stupid imbecile I have ever had the misfortune to meet Ron! Even worse than Draco!"

"Oh Draco is it now? Getting your leg over with him aswell are you? Getting you Mudblood slime over him!"

Ron had touched a nerve, whether it was the fact he had accused her of sleeping with Malfoy or the fact that he had called her a Mudblood, something had got to Hermione and before Ron could say another word Hermione's palm had collided with the side of Ron's cheek with a load clap. This time when Hermione spoke it was a mere shaky whisper of fury.

"If you ever, speak to me like that again....then you will live to regret it till the day you die Weasley!"

And with that Hermione stormed off to a carriage behind the one she had previously been in.

Ron turned to Harry and said more calmly now.

"What have I done Harry? I didn't mean a word of that! An hour ago it was all so perfect and now I doubt she'll ver want to be near me again."

"Well you can't blame her can you mate? You called her a tart, you accused her of sleeping with Malfoy....with me! And you called her a Mudblood!"

"I know Harry, I'm so stupid."

The week after the Hogsmeade visit had been a long one, Ron had been given detention every night of the week for beating up Malfoy, Harry was ignoring Ron on several occasions because of Ron dragging him into the fight and Hermione was just acting as though Ron didn't exist.

It was the night of Ron's final detention and he was making his way down to the library to help Madame Pince put every book into alphabetical order without using magic when he saw Hermione coming out with several books held to her chest. Ron looked over to Hermione and she ignored him, it wasn't until he called out her name when she was half way to the staircase that she even showed signs of realising she wasn't alone in the corridor. At hearing her name Hermione turned to face Ron and glared at him.

"Wow are you Hermione?" asked Ron quietly.

"Oh I feel as fine as any Mudblood would feel!" answered Hermione coldly. Ron picked up on the emphasis of the word Mudblood.

"Look, Hermione, you know I didn't mean it, why would I? I like muggles and muggle-borns I don't know what got into me!"

"The blood you made Malfoy shed probably!" said Hermione just as coldly as she had before.

"Please Hermione, let me apologise!" pleaded Ron. Hermione gave an angry sort of laugh.

"Apologise? You called me a tart, a Mudblood and accused me of sleeping with my best friend and worst enemy, and you think that an apology will solve it all? Well you think wrong Weasley, you're gonna have to do a hell of a lot to get yourself back into my good books!"

"When will you start calling e Ron again instead of Weasley?"

"I don't know, probably when I've finished with every boy in Hogwarts, ooh Ernie Macmillan hasn't had a go yet, maybe I should go and see him? What do you think?" said Hermione sarcastically.

"Hermione please don't be like that! Hermione listen to me! Hermione!"

But it was too late, Hermione was walking up the stairs towards Gryffindor tower, Ron hung his head low and entered the library where he saw Madame Pince.

"Your first load of books are on the table, I'll be using magic, you won't, have fun!" she snarled, Ron looked over at the pile of books on the table, there where at least 100 books there, Ron groaned and sat at the table.

It's gonna be a long night Ronnie he thought to himself.
