Last Time:

"More than anything" While this was going on both of them had been moving ever so slightly toward the other without even thinking. As the last words left Georges mouth he leaned down slowly and captured her lips gently and lovingly with his. This all would have been perfect if not for--

"What the fuck!?"

Lauren just stood there staring at the scene that she had just witnessed in disbelief.

Hermione jumped out of George's arms as the reality of it all crashed down upon her. She wasn't supposed to be with someone that her best friend wanted. I was against the rules. And she could see the hurt that was in Lauren's eyes because of it, although that hurt was fast being replaced by anger.

"You little bitch! I thought you were my friend how could you do this to me!? You knew damn well that I liked him and here you are kissing him anyway! With me here none the less!" Lauren spat out, her eyes flashing with hurt, jealousy, and anger all at once.

"I-I never meant to hurt you Lauren. George, well when he kissed me-I let go of all the feelings that I had been denying Lauren. I didn't want to deny them anymore Lauren, I couldn't. I'm sorry..." Hermione replied softly as a single tear ran silently down her face. When George saw this he silently took her hand in his as the only way he could comfort her right now.

"You think that that fixes it, 'I'm sorry'!? You know I liked him and you did it anyway, I don't think I'm sorry is gonna cut it." Lauren said her eyes never leaving Hermione's face.

"If it were just a crush Lauren I would give it all up for you. No questions asked. You have to know that. But for the first time in my life I think I'm falling in love and well, even if losing you is the cost of it I think I have to give this a shot."

"You-You love me?" George asked, speaking for the first time since they kissed while looking deeper then anyone ever had into Hermione's eyes.

She nodded silently feeling the warmth and love that seemed to surround him. She wanted to stare into his loving hazel eyes forever but she slowly turned back to Lauren who had a very confused look on her face.

"Lauren, look you are one of my best friend and you know that I would never intentionally do anything to hurt you. But I feel like I owe it to myself to finally try and let love in." Hermione stated in a slightly calmer voice, hoping that Lauren would try to understand and forgive her.

"I-well-Hermione..." Lauren stuttered, trying to decide if she could be happy for her friend or just angry at her for stealing George away from her. Without making up her mind she abruptly turned around and walked away from the corner thrat they were standing in. As she left Hermione saw the confused look on her face and the usual swing in her hips was gone.

As Lauren got out of view the tears started to stream down Hermione's face as she let out a small sob.

"This is all wrong," She started through her sobs, "You're not supposed to find love and lose your best friend at the same time!" She couldn't have said more if she wanted to because the tears had become too much to talk over.

"I know honey, I know." George whispered comfortingly as he pulled her into his arms.

For a while her head was firmly pressed against George's chest. But after a while he could hear her breathing return to normal and he pulled her back slightly so he could see her now tear stained face.

"I love you." he whispered as he wiped away the remaining tears from her delicate face.

"I know, but I think I need to go home now." Hermione told George.

"Well I'll go with you then." George replied, clearly worried about her.

"I'll be fine." She said trying to reassure him. "I'm sure there are people her that you need to talk to anyway." She said "I'll see you later" She added as she swiftly leaned up and kissed him.

George watched as she slowly made her way through the people talking briefly too many of them. 'She loves me too...' George thought blissfully not believing his luck as he watched her before turning around to go and talk to Fred.

"Gred! Long time no see!" Fred exclaimed as George walked over.

"Forge I thought we had stopped using those names." George said laughing. "And you would see me more if you would ever come to work." He added in a would-be stern voice.

"Well you know me; I have other things to do. Plus I do almost all of the advertising for our company."

"That you do, I will admit it." George said with a laugh as he thought of all the promotional parties Fred went to for WWW.

"So you finally got your girl?" Fred asked slyly.

"What do you mean finally?

"I'm your twin, I've known for months that you head were over heels for her. I was just upset that you never told me!"

"Oh, well sorry about that. Isn't she great though?" George said proudly with a broad grin on his face.

"I wasn't aware that you were such a bad kisser though that girls cried after they had kissed you." Fred stated teasingly.

"Shut up!"

They stood there for a couple of moments in a comfortable silence as the grins on their faces slowly faded.

"So, we'll be out there with the people we've grown up with." George said with the upcoming battle on his mind.

"Yeah, it's a weird thought isn't it? I mean seven years ago we couldn't have imagined this at all."

"You scared?" George asked knowing the answer.

"Of course. But I'm more scared of losing our family and friends and stuff, you know?"

"I feel the same way..."

(Only minutes before)

As Hermione made her way threw the crowd she stopped at many of them for the standard, "Hey, How are you" but she wasn't really in the mood to have an actual conversation with anyone. So she was soon to the door that they all knew led to the Apperation Room.

As she stepped in the slight stench of magic washed over her. She couldn't imagine her life without that smell and it comforted her every time. She took a deep breath and was soon gone with a pop.

Hermione reappeared moments later in my kitchen. On her kitchen table was the rolled up Daily Prophet that she hadn't even had the chance to unroll before she left her house for the meeting. Now she sat down and slowly unrolled the piece of paper. When she saw the front page her jaw dropped.

Escape At the Ministry

Recently captured Death Eater Lucius Malfoy

has escaped from the Ministry's grasp while he

was being held at Headquarters before being

transferred to Azkaban. Many suspect an inside

assist. Watch for further news on this

outrageous discover of the Ministry's failed

defense.

--Jackie Jones

All kinds of thoughts swirled through Hermione's head as she read this unusually short article. 'Wasn't Ron in charge of guarding him?' 'Is it possible that he was the inside assist?' At times like this even the best of friends had doubts of the others loyalty, as sad as that may be.

She knew that it was too late to find anything out tonight and she also knew that she needed a good nights rest, so she resolved to get up early tomorrow and go ask Dumbledore about this disturbing new event.

So with a heavy heart and a full find Hermione pulled back the scarlet comforter and lay down in bed. Not getting to sleep for another hour at least.

A/N: Wow to tell you the truth I don't know where that came from but a new plot jumped into my head and I decided to go with it. Hopefully I wont take so long to update next time but between homework school and swim team I really don't have a lot of time but I'll try. You know the drill...REVIEW!
