"Well, I never thought about it." Draco admitted.

"Didn't you think it was peculiar you stashed the ring away but as soon as Valentines Day came you suddenly remembered it?" He prodded farther.

"Um… no"

"It's too much of a coin incidence, don't you think?"

"I guess…"


"That ring is very beautiful."

"Huh," Hermione looked up from the guys that were alive within the ring only to see her reincarnation once again before her. "Oh, thanks. Draco gave it to me…"

"…for Valentines day." Iris finished for her.

"Yeah, how did you know that?" Hermione set the ring beside her on the window seat.

"Aidan gave me that ring on Valentines day too." Iris sat down in the air and then with a flick of her wrist she was sitting down onto a velvet covered lounge chair.

"Oh…"

"Yes, in fact, that ring," She said as she crossed her legs at the ankles leaning slightly forward toward Hermione. "Is the reason I started to fall in love with Aidan."

"Because of a RING? Sorry, go on." Hermione looked down at the ring amazed that this little trinket could make someone fall in love.

"It was so beautiful when he gave it to me. I was so surprised. Aidan was the biggest prick ever."

"Sounds exactly like Draco"

"You have NO idea."


"That ring does a lot more than just tell the girl you like her. It's magic."

"So? I deal with magic things all the time. What is it charmed or something?" Draco lay back down on the bed. I don't have time for this.

"No. I mean like a wand is magic, the ring is magic."

"What are you trying to say?" Draco sat up. Dude, this guy is psycho.

"That book I gave you, it only works if you or one of you has the ring on. The ring symbolizes her trust and your love. The spells only work if you have those two things."

"Oh. Has she put on the ring yet?" Draco looked him in the eye, waiting for the answer.


"I almost have but right when it is on the tip of my finger my mind yells for me to stop."

"Ah, you don't trust Draco do you?" Iris closed her eyes, already knowing the answer. When Hermione spoke she mouthed the words.

"Why should I? He doesn't exactly give me a reason too." Hermione noticed. "Why are you doing that?"

"Oh, sorry." Iris opened her eyes and looked into Hermione's. "Its just that I said that exact phrase when I was asked if I trusted Aidan. So you won't ever trust him?"

"Never."

"Oh, really?"

"Don't 'oh really' me. You know Aidan, not exactly the first person you jump to catch you when you are falling now is he?"

"Actually…."

"Don't answer that."
