"Ummm... sure Ron" Hermione said in confusion.
Ron but a big smile on his face and toke her hand in his. Hermione and Ron walked out onto the dance floor and started to dance. Harry was watching Ron and Hermione in happiness. Did he like Hermione just as a friend?
When the song ended Hermione smiled and asked him if he wanted to go sit down. Ron had a sad face but said okay. When they got back at the table Harry was already gone. Hermione sat down with Ron and started scanning the dance floor and spotted him dancing with Leslie. This could be trouble!
"Hermione..." Ron said nervously
"Yeah"
"Umm, do you like Harry a lot? You can't keep your eyes off him" Ron said.
"Ron, I like him as a friend! Same as you, that's why it was awkward for me when we were dancing" Hermione said.
"Oh, okay. I felt the same way." Ron said looking relieved.
Hermione gave him a smile but was wondering whether she should tell Ron about Leslie, after all, he could be a big help.
"Ron, can i tell you something?"
Ron nodded and Hermione told Ron everything that she heard.
Ron put a brave face on and said in dignity," I know what to do"
When the song ended Harry left Leslie because she had to "go to the bathroom." More like she had to tell her friends what was happening. When Harry went to the table where Hermione was sitting she asked him a question.
"Would you like to dance Harry?" Hermione said smoothly.
"Ummm...I'm not sure because..you know...Leslie will..." Harry said.
"Oh, well, Leslie is already dancing with someone else..." Hermione said.
"No she isn't"
"Look Harry!"
Harry looked onto the dance floor and saw Leslie take her hands into... RONS! Harry looked at Leslie and Ron dumbstruck.
"So, what do you say?" Hermione said once again.
"Ummm.. sure.. but why don't we take a stroll outside?" Harry said.
"Whatever suits you" Hermione was smiling very big.
When Harry wasn't looking she winked at Ron and he winked back.
