That weekend, Harry and Ron were headed out of the castle to go to Hogsmeade, when Dumbledore stopped them. "Harry I need to speak with you."
"Umm... okay."
"And Mr. Weasley, I'll be speaking with you when you come back." Ron nodded and walked outside. "To my office." Dumbledore said.
"I guess I'm not going to Hogsmeade then."
"You might if we get done quickly. Now move along. I'll be there in a minute." A few minutes later, Harry was walking into Dumbledore's office. He stopped next to the mirror. Maybe I could look in it real fast, before he gets up here. He took a deep breath and stepped in front of the mirror. It took a while for something to appear. Harry saw all of his friends, being happy together. And in the background were his parents and Sirius -
"What do you see?" Dumbledore said.
Harry jumped. "Uhh... well it's kind of hard to explain."
"Are your parents still there?" Harry nodded. "And Sirius?" Harry nodded again. "And a few others." Harry nodded.
He pulled his eyes away from the mirror. "So what did you want to talk about?"
"Remus is supposed to be here to talk to you, but I seem to be having trouble locating him." He went behind his desk. "Until then." He motioned for Harry to sit. "How has Occulmency been going?" Dumbledore asked.
"Alright. Snape's not exactly the most pleasant person to be around."
"And have you had anymore blue light dreams?"
"A few."
"You don't look like you've slept in a while."
"It's weird... I wake up really early, like at 3 o'clock, but I can't ever get back to sleep."
"Maybe you should see the nurse."
"Maybe." They waited silently for a while. Harry knew there was no way he was getting to Hogsmeade now.
"Well, I don't know where Remus has gone." He got up and went to a door behind him. "Wait here, in case he comes." But an hour and a half later, Remus still wasn't there. "You can leave now Harry. I don't know where he is. Sorry for wasting your day."
"That's okay. Umm, do you think I can still get into Hogsmeade?"
"Go down there and see if they'll let you. If not tell them you had a meeting with me."
"Thanks." Harry ran down to the entrance to Hogsmeade.

They let him through without asking why he'd missed an hour and a half of the visit. He found Ron in Weasley's Wizard Wheezes.
"It's about time." Ron said
"Remus was supposed to talk to me, but he never showed up."
"Strange... well what do you want to do?"
"How about a butterbeer?" The two of them walked over to the Three Broomsticks. Harry went up to buy, and when he turned back around Ron was gone. He could see Ron's hair outside. "What're you doing out here?" he asked.
"Look." he pointed inside. Hermione was there, with some other boy. "She's replaced me."
Harry handed him his butterbeer and pushed him away from the window. "Let's go. If I don't move you, you'll be staring all day."
"She's replaced me."
"Yeah I heard you."
"But-"
"Don't get too excited. It doesn't mean that she's completely over you yet." They wandered around Hogsmeade, drinking their butterbeers.
"I have to get her back."
"Ron..."
"I have to... but how?"
They walked past Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. "You could ask Fred and George." Harry said. Ron stopped, dropped his butterbeer, and went running into the store. Harry tried to follow, but there were so many people in the store that he soon lost Ron. He decided to wait outside. A few minutes later, Ron came out.
"They said to buy her something."
"Hermione isn't like most other girls."
"I don't care. I'm desperate. They said jewelry always works, but everything in that store is so expensive."
"I'll buy it." Harry said.
"No I couldn't ask you to do that."
"You didn't ask. Pick something out and I'll pay for it." They went to the jewelry store. Harry got the usual gasps from the girls who worked there.
"That's Harry Potter!"
"What's he doing in here?"
"Do you think he has a girlfriend?"
"Harry." Ron said. "Do you think she'd like this one?" He had a gold heart shaped locket in his hand.
"Go for it." Harry said. "How much is it?"
"More than my broom." Harry looked at the price tag. It was 20 galleons.
"Uhh..."
"I'll just pick another one." Ron said. Harry looked at the girls that were giggling in the corner.
"Hold on. I might be able to get it."
"Harry there's no way that either of us have that much money." Harry nodded towards the girls. "It's not going to work."
"Didn't you hear them whispering?"
"Yeah but they'd never give it to you just because you're Harry Potter." Harry picked up the necklace and walked toward the girls.
"Excuse me."
"Yes?" One of the girls said.
"I have a slight problem. See I want to get this for my friend, but all I have is 5 galleons."
The girl took the necklace and looked at the price tag. "Oh. Well..."
"I'll give you ten but that's really all I have."
"Umm... hold on." The girls went into their corner and began talking rapidly. Harry looked back at Ron and nodded. Ron shook his head. The girls turned back around. "Okay you can have it for ten."
"Thanks." Harry gave them the money, and handed Ron the necklace.
"I don't believe it. Did you really have only ten galleons?"
"No, I have more, but I want to buy other things today too."
