Gone And Coming Back

Chapter 10

Recap- Ron gave a sad laugh. "Actually I thought the book was stupid. But…Hermione Granger, the friend Ginny was probably talking about I presume?" Ron asked and Hermione nodded eager to here more. "Damn did she love that book. That girl must have read it a thousand times. Smart one she was, always a bookworm, it used to annoy me a lot. But then I realized it was her."

"Really… She must have been a great friend then." Hermione replied and was trying to see how far she could push this.

"She really was. I miss her a lot. I remember in one of our years, I was madly in love with her…."

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

"..She didn't even notice, when I had liked her for more then two years, I guess that was the problem with falling in love with your best friend, that they only see you as a friend." Ron said and gave a weak smile.

"Wow. Did she ever find out in all that time? And how did you get over her and move on to Lavender?" Hermione asked, still pushing it, but she just had to know.

"She never knew, I was going to send her a letter confessing but Fred and George found it and they sent it to Lavender instead. That's how Lavender and I got together, I would have never imagined that one of the prettiest girls in our year would go out with me but she did. I was outside wondering what happened to my letter, because it wasn't where I left it, and as I sat under a tree here comes Lavender but she was not her usually bouncy self. She slowly walks over, sits next to me, holds out the letter and starts talking about how touched she was."

"Did you tell her it wasn't for her?" Hermione asked really interested in this.

"I didn't have time. After she says she's touched she explains that as much as it saddens her she just doesn't like me and it could never be. So two months go by and I wonder how she got the letter instead, when I find out Fred and George sent it to her. By that time Hermione was going out with some ravenclaw so I just went back to secretly loving her."

Hermione remembered that time, she only went out with the ravenclaw for two weeks though, he wasn't really her type. "So how did you and Lavender get together then?"

"Well, a few months later she came to me one night and said she really thought about me all the time and that she couldn't get the letter off her mind for the time that had past, and that slowly she started to like me. I couldn't just tell her that I didn't like her so I told her to meet me in the common room that night and I took her to the kitchens, and we talked and I started to like her, and since then, it just grew. and then I realized what I felt for Hermione was just an illusion I was so lonely that I only thought I was in love with her."

Hermione was relieved

"I just hope she's happy and I hope one day we will see her again." Ron said and smiled.

"Do you think she's married?" Hermione asked interested in how he imagined her living these days.

"Hm. Well, she was always over obsessed with work but I suppose she might have settled down with somebody."

"Ginny was telling me names of guys Hermione might have liked and then she said what she thought Hermione would think of them. So I'm curious to know what you think of them. So when I say a name tell me if you think Hermione would be happy with them." Hermione said and Ron nodded. this was her chance at something.

"Oliver Wood"

Ron wrinkled his nose. "No, she never was a fan of his obsession over quidditch."

"Percy"

Ron groaned "the only other one who was as enthusiastic about homework and prefect duties as her. But no, she sometimes thought he was a jerk when he was against my family in fifth year."

"Dean Thomas"

Ron didn't make a face this time. "Well, I know she went out with him for a month in seventh year, but nope, they didn't belong together."

"George" Hermione said, eager to here this one, Ron became a little nervous. "Tell me the absolute truth! Do you think you would mind if they were together? Do you think they would be happy? Don't let my dating George influence your answer."

"Well,..." Ron started uncertainly, "they did seem to get along quite well. I don't think at Hogworts she was always fond of his pranks but sometimes when she came to my house over the summer, like when we were in sixth year, and Fred and George were visiting, George would ask to speak to her alone for a while. I never knew what that was about."

Hermione knew of course, they wanted her to help them figure out some prices and expenses for their shop.

"Hm. well Ron its been a pleasure talking to you and having a drink with you but I really must get going now. I do have to tell George something rather important. Hope to see you soon though." Hermione said as she stood and Ron did the same.

"Well, it was a pleasure talking to you and I am sure I will see you in a few days." Ron said and him and Hermione departed.

'This is so confusing' Hermione thought, so Ron was in love with Lavender so Hermione could admit it was her. She knew better though, she knew Ron temper, and jealousy, she knew that he would be thrilled to see her, but very angry that Harry knew before him.

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

Meanwhile while Hermione was out with Ron.....

George sat on the couch and watched the television that Hermione had brought, living as a muggle would be hard without magic, but living without television was just awful! George hated to admit it, but he was becoming like his dad, he was fascinated with this muggle device, not just fascinated, obsessed. Some shows were very interesting, some soap operas were a little overdone though. Honestly, in real life when does A guys girlfriend go out with her friends, and while the guy is home alone, his ex girlfriend suddenly is at his front door? It just didn't happen that often, though it might happen. That was never going to happen to him though.

Yet suddenly as soon as Jerry Springer ("A rather interesting show", george mused") There was a knock on his door, he looked at the clock, Hermione couldnt be back so soon! There was another knock, and George slowly walked over and opened the door...
