Contemplating Confusion

by ©SimbiAni™ and SweetieK

Summary: A joint effort between two dream-dazed fans, one who can't get enough sappiness, and one who has a tendency to surround herself in drama. In this episode of our adventures, Hermione realizes she has a crush on both Ron and Harry. How will she come to terms with this new issue, and who will she choose? No specific year, and complete AU.

Warnings: This fic is not to be taken seriously. It is the result of a non-HP-writing fan (well, who admittedly dreams HP though) reluctantly bribed into RP-ing HP with a drama princess. Although this has been edited to fic form (meaning, minus all the zany chat inbetween each other's posts), you must still expect to encounter lots of randomness, sillyness, grammatical errors, repetitiveness, loss of sense of time, probly OoC-ness too, and extreme lack of plot. Once more, this fic is here purely for your amusement. You have been warned. Enjoy! Hopefully it brings a smile to your face, hehehe...

Chapter Five:

Figuring Fancies

Hermione sat down next to the fence by the Shrieking Shack and watched her friends. If they kept talking to her about that.. she would be forced to tell, which she didn't want to do.

Ron looked at Harry questioningly. Was this what he thought it was? Great, he knew it was happen sooner than later! Harry knew that Ron had a crush on 'Mione! And that's probly why she was being so difficult- annoyed at Ron (yet again) so being so dense as to not have told her sooner... Gosh, he could hear her now... 'Well I did used to like you, but you waited so long to admit if you had feelings for me... I've moved on!' Bugger, why was he such a moron?

Harry opened his mouth to say something. They were about ten feet away from the Shrieking Shack now, having wandered into the woods during their ponderings. Harry braced himself for what he was about to say. "Ron... I know we've sorta had this silent pact going for about 5 years now... but... I think we have to finally talk about it."

Ron looked confused. "Pact? Silent?"

Harry nodded distractedly. "Yea, that we would never consider dating Hermione becuz it might break us up as friends... you know? Rember?"

Ron's eyes went wide and he mumbled, "Oh? yeah, yeah..."

Hermione saw Ron's eyes get wide, even though she was pretty far away. She bit her lip. Hopefully Harry was telling Ron. That would save her from doing it.

Harry continued. "So, you get what I'm saying then? I think... I think she's... liking someone that is gonna affect us... in some major way. And that's why she isn't telling us nothing. She's either... embarrassed or something..."

Suddenly Ron gasped. "It's MALFOY, isn't it? That would explain why she's always so eager to- to- stand up to him!"

Harry choked back a laugh. "Oh honestly, Ron, you don't think-... could she?"

They both seemed very much in doubt now! They had to talk to her as quickly as possible...!

Hermione heard Malfoy's name. Uh-oh. This was only going to get worse and she had a feeling it was going to get that way soon.

Ron started fuming yet again. "Grr, I'm so gonna destroy him if he even goes near her... 'Cant believe she'd fall for the prat Malfoy, grr..."

Harry was breathing, trying to think, and be the rational one here. Well, where had Hermione walked off to anyways? Gah, what did it matter if Ron was too hyped up to talk to her calmly, he'd just scare her off. Okay, first mission- relax Ron. Hah.

RP Disclaimer: Hermione is all SweetieK. Harry and Ron though, are SimbiAni's sappy expressions. Other chars' usage are varied, depending on whose RP turn it was, hehe.

Movie/Book Disclaimer: JKR and WB etc own the books and movies. I make no money off this zany sappiness, none at all. Honestly.
