Ok, I know Harry was pretty stupid in the last couple chapters, and might be in few more, bur I swear he doesn't stay like that through the whole thing and he gets pretty ok during this part… lets just say Harry has mood swings. The parts in bold are from Harry's point of view. Oh, and I think I said that F red and George lived in The Burrow earlier in the story, well they don't, I messed that up to.

And now, without further addeu:


Flying Feelings

Two days rolled by, and it was getting no easier for Ron and Hermione to pretend to be a couple. It was turning them against each other, and they knew it, they only wished that they could stop it.

"We could break up" Hermione said tentatively one day.

"That wouldn't work." Ron replied, groaning.

"Why not?"

"They wouldn't believe it!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Hermione! My family wouldn't believe us if we broke up, and then were suddenly best friends again! And I really don't want to stop being your friend because of something that I did out of… of… well, I don't know what it was, but something I probably shouldn't have done."

"Yeah, well I don't want to stop being your friend, but if we keep this up, we're going to destroy each other because neither of us wants to be doing this! I mean, I'd never really date you! That would-" she clamped her hand over her mouth "That came out all wrong!"

"It's that bad 'dating' me?" there was genuine hurt behind it, which he tried to keep hidden. Not a lot of girls had ever been willing to go out with him, and it hurt that Hermione, his best girl mate, so blatantly said that she would never go out with him.

"Oh Ron! I'm so sorry! That really wasn't how it was supposed to come out!" Said Hermione, trying desperately to fix her mistake, "It's just, you know how weird this is, and it's hard!"

"Yeah, I know."

"Ron, Hermione! Can you come down here for a moment?"

Ron groaned, "Mum." Then he yelled down the stairs, "Can it wait Mum? We're kind of in the middle of something!"

"Alright, I'll send Fred up to tell you!"

"Ok!" then quieter he said, "Oh yeah, send Fred, that's so much be- AHH!" he yelled as there was a loud crack and Fred apparated into the middle of the room. "You could walk you know!"

Hermione giggled, "You haven't gotten used to it yet Ron?"

Ron glared at her, "Well it's not like they still live here, not that anyone could tell the difference, because they're always here and-"

"When you two have come up from wherever it is you're drowning each other, please note that your dinner thing is at 6:30 tonight" and with that, Fred disapparated, leaving a very disgruntled Ron and Hermione alone again.

"Great!" Hermione said.

"More fun!" Ron joined in, "But what can we do?"

"You know I didn't mean it, earlier, right?"

"When?" Ron asked, even though he was pretty sure he knew.

"When I said I would never go out with you."

"Oh"

"I'm really sorry! I didn't mean it at all and… well…"

"What?" he looked up and saw that Hermione was blushing furiously.

"Um, well, it's not all that bad."

"What isn't?"

"Kiffin choos" she mumbled inaudibly.

"Sorry, I didn't catch that."

"Kissing you" she stared fixedly at the floor.

"K- kissing m- m- me" Ron stuttered in his attempt to repeat what she had said while her words sunk in. Then a huge grin replaced the confused frown he had worn a moment ago, "You like it!"

"Er, well, maybe a little."

"Well, you aren't the worst kisser in the world yourself." She blushed even more furiously than before.

"Well then, maybe-"

"Wait, before you say whatever it is you're going to say, I should tell you-"

"Ron!"

'Perfect timing' thought Ron, out loud he said "What Harry?"

"Help!"

"Can it wait?"

"No!"

"Alright, I'm coming! Look, I'll tell you later Hermione, ok?"

Hermione looked slightly disappointed, "Okay, go help Harry." Ron smiled at her and ran down the stairs, following Harry's voice.

"Harry, what the bloody hell did you do to yourself?"

"It wasn't me! It was that little sister of yours!"

"Ok, what did Ginny do to you?"

"Stole my glasses, that's what she did!" Ron tried to repress his laughter as he found Harry stumbling around Fred and George's old room, trying to find Ginny, who was nowhere to be seen. Laughing, he found Harry's glasses on top of a glass jar that sat on one of the higher shelves in the room and handed them to Harry. "Thanks mate" the blind bloke said gratefully.

"Yeah" Ron said, kind-of reluctantly.

"Hey mate, what's up? You seem kind of down."

"Oh, it-it's nothing. Just something with Hermione."

"You really like her, don't you?"

"That's the problem, I don't! But, I think she thinks I do, and I think she likes me!"

"And since when are you an expert on women?"

"Since Hermione and Ginny became them!"

"Wait, you guys really aren't going out!"

"Congratulations Harry."

"Sorry"

"Yeah well, I just wish you would have believed us in the first place."

"Again, sorry. But, if you don't like Hermione, then who does strike your fancy?"

"Well…"


ok, please don't stop reading because of what Ron said here! This is a R/Hr fic, I swear, never loose faith in that!

airhead14- hehehe, whoops, you're right, my bad. It should say: "I never really thought that I'd ever kiss Ron, especially not in these circumstances!"

kessemm: Angelina and Dean got there by magic or something; they showed up while the twins, Ginny and Harry were watching Hermione and Ron earlier, in the second chapter I think.

Magnolia Lane- don't worry, after the next chapter, there's going to be one from Ron's point of view because of what happens (foreshadowing here), but that might happen later in the story… oh well, chapter after next will be from Ron's point of view no matter what, and you'll see how he feels about all this.

Inquisitive me- thanks! It's awesome that you like it! Hope it stays that way!

Padfoot's-Luvr- thanks to you too! Hope you like this chapter!

Hali- yeah, don't worry, they warm up. I think they did a little bit in this one actually…. The awkwardness of the situation has just made them a little tense, they'll definitely get better, at least for a while…

Thank you guys all so much! This is the first fanfic I've ever written and your reviews mean a lot to me! The dinner really is next, I meant it to be in this one, but it got kind-of long, so it'll be next chapter.
