The Midnight Ball

A/N – OMG! I am so extremely sorry for the wait, I just figured out the computer thingie, and I am going to post the next four chapters slowly, because I always wait for reviews anyway! Heehee! And, Ron and Hermione are going to take a while to REALLY get together, and I have no idea how long it is until the ball, a pretty long time though.

I will just thank my reviewers instead of like talking because that takes up a lot of time!

Thank you to-----

Yay! Chapter 6 – Writers Block

From the last chapter – Hermione put on her robe and walked out to the room, "Ron, I-"

"Ron, I know that it was a mistake, and I don't blame you for anything but..." She covered her eyes and ran out to her dormitory.

'What just happened?' Hermione thought as she flopped down on her bed, 'Did Ron just see me---no, it couldn't be—wait, yes, it did happen, and I don't know about it and I think maybe I am taking our relationship too fast, I don't know about what will happen if we like kiss, no like REALLY kiss.' Hermione sat on her bed, thinking and looking at her maroon sheets until finally, when it was very late, she fell into a deep sleep.

------DREAM-------

Ron stood in the doorway of the bathroom and watched Hermione lay in the tub with her eyes closed and as she was humming softly she opened her eyes.

Hermione screamed and Ron was about to leave but he turned into Ernie and it happened all over again. Hermione was helpless as he walked in and started again.

----REAL----

Hermione woke in a sweat and glanced at the sheets tossed and thrown around, damp from her heavily wet body.

So she got up and started pacing the room deciding what to do.

She decided and got up, collected some things and walked to the Head Dorms.

"Hullo?" She said as she reached the room.

No one replied, but, because of being so tired, she fell asleep on the couch.

She awoke early, in spite of her midnight walk down.

She dressed, freshened up and went down to the Great Hall for breakfast.

----Harry and Ron's Dorm-----

"Wake up Ron!" Harry shook Ron violently until he woke up.

"What?" Ron threw off his covers and glared at Harry. "Couldn't you tell I was trying to SLEEP!"

"Yeah, but we have fifteen minutes until we have to get down to breakfast and I need to take a shower so get your stuff done and clean up your stuff in the bathroom so I can get ready!" Harry replied trying to stay calm.

"Fine!" Ron got up and got ready and went down to breakfast without Harry.

---Normal---

5 minutes after sitting down next to Hermione, Harry came in looking refreshed and clean. "Hey Mione!" He sang happily, "How was your night?"

Hermione just looked at him and glared, she was still kind of tired and grumpy, and also thinking about the dream.

Harry looked worriedly at Ron and they both shrugged, as they didn't know what was wrong with Hermione.

The trio ate breakfast in silence and they strode off to their first lesson, History of Magic.

Harry and Ron slept and Hermione took notes.

When they were walking out of class they looked eagerly at Hermione.

She saw them staring and snapped back at them, "What are you staring at, and No, I did NOT take notes for you." She cried and strode off the Care of Magical Creatures and left Harry and Ron behind, stunned.

"Bloody Hell" Ron gasped.

"Woah, after she walked out of our dorm, I thought she would'a slept it off but woah that was just not really right at all." Harry gasped, surprised at Hermione.

They had a successful class and went to lunch, still not talking.

After lunch, Hermione went to Arithmancy and Ron and Harry went off to Divination.

"What is up with her?" Ron said as they entered Trelawny's room.

Harry shrugged and the lesson started...

As they walked out of the double lesson to Potions, they ran into Hermione walking from Arithmancy. "Mione, what's up?" Ron inquired tentatively.

She glared again and walked to Potions faster, and once again, left Ron and Harry behind her.

Hermione got to Potions, sat and started to think, 'Oh my gosh am I being freaking RUDE! I don't know how to do this, because I never had, I just don't want them to think that I don't want them to be my friend, that isn't it at all. But I just need to get away, maybe brush up on my books.'

Harry and Ron got to Potions, and they had a boring lesson and Harry lost 30 points for Gryffindor.

It ended and the crowd swept them off to Dinner.

At dinner, Hermione had something to say, "Ron, Harry, I need to talk to you."

"Okay..." They both said in unison.

"Yeah, well I just need to like, not hang out with you for a while." Hermione struggled to say.

Ron's eyes bugged out at her, "Why?" He asked.

She sighed, "Memories..."

A/N – Yes, this chapter sucked but, I have writers block and I will not update soon, but in less than an week. Thank you again for all my reviewers.
