Lavender's Mistake by The Queen of the Pugs
Author's Note: This is a sequel to my other story, Life After Hogwarts: Hermione's Story. I hope you like this one. I was bored, so I decided to write a sequel with the help of a friend, Hermione Elizabeth Granger. Thanks, Hermione. **Smiles**
Ginny could stand it no more. She knew what Lavender had done to Hermione and Ron, and she had to tell someone now. She felt so guilty that she could sleep no more than an hour each night because her mind would keep wandering back to when Hermione and Ron broke apart. ***Flashback, two years ago, three years after Harry, Ron, and Hermione had graduated***
Ginny had heard Lavender and Parvati Patil talking in the girl's washroom one afternoon during her sixth year. She hadn't meant to eavesdrop, it had just happened. Lavender and Parvati were standing in front of the mirror, fixing their hair.
"I wish he'd just like me, Parvati! Why does he have to like Granger so much?" Lavender asked, pouting. Apparently neither girl had noticed Ginny entering the washroom. Ginny stood right where she was, listening now.
"I know what you mean. I mean Granger isn't all that good looking. She's just smart," Parvati rolled her eyes and took out her lip-gloss to apply to her lips. "I don't know what Ron sees in her."
Now Ginny's intention turned into eavesdropping. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Lavender and Parvati were talking about Ron and Hermione's recent relationship. Ginny didn't even breathe while she listening for fear of being caught.
"I have an idea," Lavender said mischievously, turning towards her best friend. "What if I made Ron like me?"
"How can you do something like that? It sounds complicated.."
"I'll make a love potion, duh. It will be a strong one, too. That way, he'll forget all about Hermione Granger."
The next night, at dinner, Parvati was the distraction while Lavender tried to get her love potion into Ron's pumpkin juice. Parvati talked about classes, homework, Quidditch, anything to get Ron's attention away from his juice goblet. Lavender nodded her head at Parvati, letting her know that she was done.
Ron shook his head after Parvati went back to eating her dinner. He reached for his pumpkin juice and took a drink before Ginny got the chance to tell him not to. Ginny's head slammed into the table with frustration. Now what could she do? Ron had already drunk the potion, unknowingly, and would, more than likely fall in love with Lavender.
Some of the Gryffindors looked over at Ginny, but not with much interest. Hermione looked at Ginny questioningly, but since Ginny's head was still resting on the table, she couldn't see Hermione. Ron just laughed at Ginny, as he would, being her brother and everything. ***End Flashback***
Ginny sighed and started pacing. It was around one o'clock in the morning, and she was still tired, even if she was guilty. She tried to figure out whom she would tell first. She would probably tell Hermione first since she was Ginny's best friend. But, what could she say? What would she say?
