Sweet Temptations
Chapter 5: Thinking is Always Useful.
Hermione was sitting on top of the Astronomy tower roof, she knew it was off limits but at the moment she didn't exactly care if she got caught.
She was thinking about her and Ron, and why Ron had to be so insensitive sometimes. That part of Ron really got under her skin. But it was obvious to anybody that they were in love, but neither of them had realized it just yet.
She was staring at the forest when she was sure that she saw a couple of trees go down. She stood up quickly, but then laughed quietly to herself as she realized it was only Grawp. The wind had started to pick up and she had forgotten to bring her cloak with her. She shivered slightly as a breeze came through. She wasn't really hungry and it was getting late so she decided to head back to Gryffindor Tower. Hermione hoped that Ron and Harry had settled their differences and they were back on good terms with one another.
Hermione was walking down the stairs of the Astronomy Tower when she ran smack dab into someone as she rounded the corner of the staircase. She ended up falling straight into the persons' arms. When she looked up, mouth didn't seem to work rite and she was only able to say one word.
"Ron," she breathed.
"The one and only," Ron laughed quietly.
Hermione punched him softly in the stomach. "Why are you here?" She asked him.
"Looking for you," he responded.
"And how did you know that I would be here?" Hermione asked still in Ron arms as he slid to the floor.
"Err, Harry tipped me off," Ron replied sheepishly blushing a little.
It took Hermione a few seconds to contemplate what Ron had just said. She mentally reminded herself to thank Harry later for using the Marauder's Map. Maybe he wasn't as stupid as she sometimes thought he was. 'Well,' she thought. 'Thinking is always useful.'
Hermione had lost all track of time as she sat in Ron's arms not saying anything but just enjoying each other's company. She eventually began to slip into the world of dreams.
As Ron felt Hermione's breathing even out and her heart rhythm slowing down, he gently picked her up in his arms. Ron then walked back to Gryffindor Tower hoping not to get caught by any of the teachers.
When he got back to the Tower, he laid Hermione down on a couch in front of the dieing embers of the once blazing fire. He ran up to his dormitory and grabbed a couple of blankets for Hermione. He came back down with the blankets and gently placed them over Hermione. He tiredly walked back up to his room to get some much needed rest.
Harry woke up at 6 o'clock the next morning. He had decided that he would go running around the Quidditch Pitch in case he ever was in need of running a long distance. When he came down to the Common room, he saw Hermione lying on the couch asleep and he smiled to himself. It seemed for sure that Ron and Hermione had made up and they were no longer at each other's throats.
Madame Hooch had told Harry that each time around the Quidditch Pitch was 2 miles. (Sorry I go by miles and not kilometers…..I am American.) Harry was surprised he was able to run twice around the track before getting a stitch in his side. He walked back to the school hoping there was still food left from breakfast. Because he wanted to grab a bite to eat before class and he also wanted to see Ginny. When he didn't see her in the Great Hall, he got worried and hoped that she hadn't gone and hidden or something like that.
Harry went and showered and then got changed and got his stuff ready for potions. Harry seemed like he was on cruise control, because he had gone through Potions without even thinking about what he was really doing.
Afterwards Harry figured that he should he should that more often considering the fact that he managed not to screw up his potion to much. Harry walked out of the dungeons and toward charms hoping to talk to Ron for a couple for minutes before class.
"Hey mate," Harry said as he saw Ron sitting next to the charms doors twiddling his thumbs doing nothing.
"Hey," Ron replied, but they got no farther in their conversation as Professor Flitwick strolled up to the door with most of the class behind him.
"Excuse me Harry," Professor Flitwick squeaked.
Harry stepped aside as Professor Flitwick unlocked the door for Charms.
"Today we will work on the long range summoning charm." Professor Flitwick squeaked as he climbed up onto his stack of books.
"The long range summoning charm incantation is similar to the regular summoning charm incantation. The incantation for the long range summoning charm is-," but he got no further as the door opened reveling Ginny Weasly standing there with her hands on her hips.
"Yes, Ms. Weasly is there something that I can help you with?" Professor Flitwick asked kindly.
"Professor McGonagell wishes to speak with Harry." She stated matter of factly.
"Well then Mr. Potter go ahead, and take your books with you. I would like for you to practice the charm on something from your home, I will have Ron teach you the incantation and wand movements." Professor Flitwick said quickly.
Harry followed Ginny for a while and when he realized that they weren't headed towards McGonagell's office he spoke up.
"So why did you want me to follow you?" Harry questioned inquiringly.
"To do this," she replied silkily as she pushed him roughly against the wall and kissed him hard.
