Chapter 2
IN THE COMMON ROOM
"What did you now, you great prat?" Ginny yelled to a horrified looking Ron, who was on the couch next to Harry.
"Me? What are you on about Ginny?" asked Ron, still looking scared as hell. "Why did you pash Lavender?" asked Ginny going red, "Because she's my girlfriend!" said Ron angrily, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "But why Ron? You love Hermione not that Lavender, Harry told me so!" said Ginny, who had stopped yelling. Ron turned to Harry, "Oh crap, um, Ron it wasn't my fault Ginny made me!" said Harry quickly.
"I did not you big baby, anyways that's not what we're talking about. Why are you going out with Lavender? You love 'mione," said Ginny sadly. "I DID like Hermione, but know that she hates me & I have to move on & now I'm with Lav!" said Ron. "Fine, but don't expect Hermione to wait around for you forever!" warned Ginny, "C'mon, I'll get Hermione & then we will cya in the Great Hall for dinner, ok?" said Harry. "Ok, cya Harry," with that Ron & Ginny walked out the portrait & down to the great Hall.
Harry began to walk up to the girls' stairs, but, being Harry Potter, he forgot that the steps turned into a slide when boys tried to go up there. So after some hard thinking, he went & got his broom & flew up the stairs. (literally). Good old Harry lost his smartness then after a suitable amount of time found it again.
GINNY'S DORM
"Hermione?" came Harry's voice from behind the door. "Harry? Hello, what do you doing here?" asked Hermione & as she opened the door & let Harry in. "I, Potter the Great, am here to see if your coming to grace us with your presence at dinner," ask Harry, trying to act up himself & failing miserably. "Oh, and to see if your ok," he added quickly. "I'm fine. As for your other question, I don't see why not. Anyways my new friend Pat is getting sorted soon," said Hermione smiling at the thought of Pat. "Ok, let's roll, who's Pat?" asked Harry, as he flew & Hermione walked down the stairs to the common room, where Harry quickly threw his broom on the couch.
As they walked into the Hall Hermione concluded her story about Pat & they went & sat (much to Hermione's dismay) opposite Ron & Lavender. "So? How is everyone?" asked Harry awkwardly, trying to make conversation. "Great! I have the man of my dreams!" Lavender said, more to Hermione than Harry. 'More like man of MY dreams' thought Hermione angrily to herself.
"Students, Teachers & Everyone else," began Dumbledore, "We have a new student attending our school, please make welcome, especially the students in your sixth year, PATRICK O'SHAUNASEY!"
A loud applause erupted in the Hall as Pat walked on stage, bowed & sat on the 3-legged stool. Then as usual McGonagall put the sorting hat on his head. About 2 minuets of total silence later, the Sorting Hat yelled triumphantly, "Gryffindor!" and Pat, ever so gracefully, stumble to the Gryffindor table & sat down on the other side of Hermione, and nudged her. "I had my fingers crossed," he whispered to her, as she grinned at him, as everyone began to eat.
"So, what brings you to Hogwarts, Pat?" asked Ron, after everyone was introduced to Pat. "Well, I wanted to go to a co-ed school, I can't live without chicks," replied Pat, winking at him. "Testify! Ouch!" yelled Harry who shortly after received a nudge in both ribs from Hermione & Ginny who were sitting either side of him. "Yeah, the girls here are great, well most of them anyways. My lovely GIRLFRIEND Lavender. She's is one of 'em great girls," said Ron glaring at Hermione then turning to Lavender & full on pashing her.
Right on cue- Hermione began to choke on the lamington she was eating, Pat being the quick-thinking, hothead his is (in slow-motion for effect) leaped behind Hermione & slapped her on the back. As he slapped her the piece of lamington Hermione was eating flew out of her mouth & into Ron's dessert which was like, three pieces of cheesecake. Ron pushed it away from himself. "Now we're even for you bumping into me earlier today!" Pat said triumphantly.
"Sorry Ron," Hermione managed to cough out then she turned to Pat, "Thanks Pat!" choked out Hermione, "Hermione it amazes me how far you will go to get me to notice you. Most girls who like me usually come forward & say so, not choke on their lamingtons, but yet again, you get extra points for originality! And for getting it straight into Ron's food!" said Pat jokingly. Everyone laughed & Hermione just blushed.
A WEEK OR SO LATER
It seemed that Pat was a very likable guy, everyone was friends with him & he had become close friends with Harry, Ginny, Ron & Hermione. And also it seemed after the 'lamington' incident Hermione & Ron were on thin speaking terms again.
It was a Friday afternoon and everyone was in their last class for the day. Ginny was in potions, Harry & Ron were in divination & Hermione & surprisingly enough Pat were in Ancient Runes.
'When's the bell gonna go?' Pat thought, then as if on cue the bell went. "YES! It's the weekend! WAHOO," yelled Pat getting up & running to the door. "PAT!" yelled the professor.
Pat turned around to see the whole class staring at him. "What?" Pat asked no one I particular. "Pat, that's the bell for the start of class not the end," giggled Hermione. "Oh, I knew that I was just testing the Professor," said Pat returning to his seat next to Hermione & added "Well done, Professor you past the test," said Pat trying to cover up his idiocy with a joke. It worked, everyone began to laugh. "Thank you for that assessment Mr. O'Shaunasey. Is it alright with you if we begin our lesson now?" asked the Professor, "Yes of course, carry on," replied Pat.
IN THE COMMON ROOM
"It was soooo funny, Pat's a total moron!" said Hermione after she'd told Harry, Ron, Lavender & Ginny about Ancient Runes. "Hey, I'm right here you know! And just so everyone knows the truth DOES hurt!" he said pretending to wipe a fake tear off his cheek & receiving a quick laugh from the group.
"I'm sooo bored!" groaned Ginny about 5 minuets later. "Lets do something then," said Ron, "But what?" asked Lavender, putting down The Witch Weekly she had been reading. "We could play 'Truth?' you know, you ask someone if they've ever….. Let's just say sworn at church? Then they have to answer truthfully & it just goes on & on until we fall asleep or get sick of it," Pat suggested, then Harry groaned "I was gonna suggest that."
"Ok then Harry, you can start," said Hermione, "Thanks 'mione, I will. Ok, Uh… Ginny, have you ever…. Eaten the last brownie & blamed it on someone else?" asked Harry. "Of course, who hasn't?" Ginny asked smiling. "Ok, my turn… um, Lavender have you ever cheated on a boyfriend?" interrogated Ginny, Lavender muttered something. "Sorry what was that Lav?" asked Hermione sweetly. "Yes, but I didn't mean to it just happened!" said Lavender defensively. "Ok, moving along," said Ron. "Hermione? Do you like anyone sitting here, if so who?" asked Lavender slyly. "Yeah, I like everyone he…" Lavender cut her off. "No! You know for someone who's supposedly really smart, your pretty thick. I mean like, like," "Oh…um... yes…it's…." she muttered a name, "Sorry, Who?" asked Ginny. Hermione took a deep breath, "Pat," Hermione half-lied quickly (she liked Pat as a friend but she wasn't about to proclaim her love for Ron at the moment), looking at the ground. Pat who was sitting next to Hermione, turned & said "'mione, I like, like you too! Feeling Christian?" he asked. "What does that mean?" she asked, "It means are you feeling helpful," Harry said, "Yeah, why?" "Will you be moi's girlfriend & help me mend my heart?" he said joking about the last bit. "Of course I'd love to be your girlfriend," Hermione said smiling. "Coolies, now Harry," "Saw that coming," muttered Harry. Hermione continued as if he hadn't interrupted her. "Do you like our young Miss Weasley?" asked Hermione, "Yes I do," said Harry proudly. Everybody looked him strangely they obviously weren't expecting him to be honest. "Umm, ok wasn't expecting that," said Hermione looking back & forth from Harry (who looked love struck) to Ginny (who also looked love struck) to Ron (who looked a bit angry) "Gin, will you be my girlfrie…" Ron cut him off.
"REWIND! Harry you have to ask the father before you ask out his daughter, or the older brother, who is me," said Ron, "ok, Ron, may I please ask your lovely, gorgeous, hott, sexy sis.." started Harry, "Fine just don't go all mushy-wushy around me," said Ron blocking his ears as if Harry had said something that was illegal. "So, Gin, whadda you say?" asked Harry grinning at her, "Hell yeah, you sexy, hott…" "STOP! On with the game," yelled Ron looking disgusted. "Ok, Ron. In our fourth year did you have a crush on Fleur?" asked Harry. "Yeah, but she was part veela! I couldn't resist," at this explanation & a blushing Ron nobody could help but laugh.
"Ok, who's left? Aha Pattie boy, have you ever been speechless around a girl?" ask Ron, "ME? Hello you're talking to Pat the Ladies Man. And yes I have, in the muggle school I went to this really, really geeky chick asked me out & I was totally speechless & I ran for my life, she was pretty fast but I ran into the dude's bathroom & I was safe. I left the school a week or so later 'coz I was scared if I saw her again she'd hunt me down." said Pat laughing.
"Am I the only one who is really sick of this game?" yawned Ginny, "Well, I going to bed, who else is coming?" asked Harry. "Me" muttered Pat, Ginny & Lavender in union. "I might stay down here & finish this book, sweet dreams everyone" said Hermione picking up the book she'd discarded earlier. "Alright, night 'mione," said Harry, giving her a brief hug. Everyone parted up to their dorms. "Coming Ron?" asked Harry, when he realized Ron was still sitting to the floor. "Nah mate, I think I'll just hang a bit longer with Hermione, I'm not that drained," said Ron grinning. "Ok, night Ron," "Night mate," said Ron getting up & sitting next to Hermione.
"Hey Hermione, I never got a chance to properly apologize to you, last time you ran off, sorry" said Ron, "That's alright, forgive you," said Hermione not looking up from her book. "Hermione," "What Ron?" asked Hermione angrily, looking up from her book. "Hermione, do you really?" asked Ron, looking deep into her eyes for an answer. He found it. "Yes Ron, I truly forgive you. We've been best friends ever since we met, as much as I try I can't stay mad at you, you git," said Hermione smiling, getting up & giving Ron a hug. After like, 5 minuets they realized they were still hugging, they broke apart quickly. "cough Hmmm so," started Hermione, "Yeah," ended Ron. They both grinned, 'I'm so stupid, I love him so much, why did I pull away?' Hermione thought mentally kicking herself, for pulling away. 'God, she's hott, I love her so much,' thought Ron (Typical boy!). They stood there for awhile then Ron realized he was still staring at Hermione.
"I'm going to go to bed, night Ron," she said smiling. "Yeah, me too, night Hermione," he said as they both headed to the stairs, with a final smile they disappeared up the stairs.
