"Morning Mione!"
"Morning Draco!" Hermione got up off the couch and gave Draco a soft kiss on the lips.
"Let's go to breakfast, I'm starved!" Draco stated and they left the common room.
On their way down to the Great Hall, Harry and Ron spotted them. Hermione and Draco didn't notice until Ron said something to them.
"Look who it is! Ferret boy and his play toy." Ron scowled.
"Ron, I am not his "play toy" I am his girlfriend." Hermione corrected haughtily.
"Sure..." He replied in a snotty tone.
"Come on lets go, looks like we havent gotten a reason to be around her anymore." Harry grabbed Ron's arm and pulled him towards the great hall.
"What? You're the one who was way too overprotected; you wouldn't let me have a life of my own!" Hermione half screamed back.
"Do you even know why?" Harry answered back, walking further and faster with Ron.
"No, why?"
"Because."
"Nice answer!" Hermione started to turn to Draco.
"I wasn't finished!" Hermione faced Harry.
"Well? Go on!" Hermione said impatiently.
"Because, well ummm.."
"Because he's in love with your Hermione!" Ron said in a rush interrupting Harry who was blushing. "Nice job mucking that all up Mione."
Just then Harry ran up to the Gryffindor common room. Hermione was speechless. She didn't know what to do. She couldn't think.
"Happy now?" Ron asked.
"No, what, wait. wow." was all she could say.
"Now you know. I'm leaving." Ron turned to leave but he felt someone's hand on his arm.
"Wait!"
"What Hermione?"
"I'm coming with you; I need to talk to you and Harry."
"What about him?" he gestured at Draco.
"Draco can go to the great hall without me." Ron started up the stairs.
"Sorry Draco." Hermione mouthed.
"It's okay." He mouthed back. Draco walked into the great hall while Hermione went up the stairs.
In the Gryffindor common room, Hermione waited on a couch. Ron was getting Harry. It seemed like forever, but finally the door to the boy's dormitory opened and Harry and Ron came out.
"Harry!" Hermione said while walking over to him.
"Sorry about before." Was all Harry could spit out.
"Look I wish we were still friends, but I guess not." Hermione told them.
"Well we can still be friends." Harry said looking hopeful.
"Well only if you can trust me more, and trust Draco with me." Hermione stated in a calm voice.
"DRACO??? Since when are you on first name basis?" Ron screamed.
"RON! He is my boyfriend!" Hermione yelled back.
"Oh right." Ron's cheeks went red and they all started laughing.
The day of the dance
"Hermione?"
"Yes Draco?"
"Why did you tell lavender and Parvarti?"
"Well, I don't know."
"And that is how Potter and Weasley knew a couple weeks ago?"
"I guess so."
"So when do you want me to get you for the dance?"
"Well it starts at 7, so how about 6:45?"
"Perfect, see you then!" Draco left and went into his room.
"Finally!" Hermione mumbled. She ran up to her room and went through the magic door to the Gryffindor common room to get Ginny.
Back in Hermione's Room and Ginny in the bathroom
"Ginny hurry up!"
"Sorry Mione, the dress is hard to put on!"
5 min. later
"Hermione, you have to put make-up on, you would look perfect!"
"Ginny, no not ever will I put that junk on my perfect face!"
"Oh come on, just this once... please????" Ginny begged.
"NO!" Hermione yelled back.
"Please?????" Ginny said looking hopeful. "I won't put a lot on!"
"Fine!" Hermione finally gave in. "One problem though, I don't have any make-up.
"You don't need any, I can do it magically."
"Okay... hurry up with it though!"
"Magenkata!" Ginny said while pointing her want to Hermione's face.
Hermione had black mascara on, smokey black eye shadow, a touch of blush, and just enough lip gloss. It matched her dress perfectly. Hermione looked over at Ginny.
"Wow Gin, you look great!"
"Thanks you too, do you think Harry will like this?"
Hermione remembered Ginny didn't know Harry was in love with her. Harry had asked Ginny before he told Hermione.
"Of course he will. He will think you are the most gorgeous girl there!" Hermione said even though she knew it wasn't true.
