Jealousy Killed the Cat
By: Sunshine Stacy
Chapter Three: Chris RobinsOnce Ron and Hannah's little relationship came to a finish, it seemed to everyone that things got back to normal between Ron and Hermione. That is, everyone except Ginny and me. Ginny and me have the same theory of what will become of our two friends. And right now wasn't the right time to play matchmaker when we could sense Hermione coming up a plan to get back at Ron.
It wasn't until the middle of October Hermione's little payback came into action. We were all in the library doing our homework when a devilishly handsome bloke came up to Hermione. His name was Chris Robins. I heard a lot of things from the ladies about this guy. How they love his brown hair almost covers his hazel eyes, and there is plenty who think he's a good snog. He was one hell of a keeper too. He was Ravenclaw's Quidditch captain. He also had a brain, but he wasn't as smart as Hermione, not even close enough.
"Hermione?" Chris said, getting my bushy-haired friend's attention. Hermione looked up and a faint blush came to her cheeks.
"Yes?" came Hermione's reply, her voice a little high-pitched. I look over at Ron and see that he was watching Chris' every move.
"Can you…" He glanced over at Ron, nervous that he was being watched, "can you help me find a book?"
"Alright then," Hermione said, a bit of a smirk on her face as Ron made a small grunt, and she disappeared behind a bookshelf with Chris.
"I reckon he wants more than a book," Dean whispered, making sure the two couldn't hear him.
"What makes you say that?" Ron whispered back, trying not to sound bothered.
"Ron, I know at least 20 blokes that would die to even have Hermione give them the time of day. And I'm not talking about her helping us with our homework," Seamus explained. Ron just gave a nod, and started tapping his fingers on the table.
I looked over at Ginny, and she gave me a knowing smile. It shouldn't take too long for the jealousy to hit Ron. After a few minutes, Hermione returned, blushing and smiling.
"What are you all happy about?" Ron asked, a frown on his face. Oh yes, jealousy was starting to come at Ron in full speed.
"Chris asked me to accompany him this weekend on the Hogsmeade trip," Hermione replied, and went back to her homework.
Dean nudged me in my side with his elbow. He proved his point; I guess Chris wanted something more than finding a book.
"And did you accept?" Ron asked, his voice sounding harsh.
"Of course I did. I couldn't just turn him down," Hermione replied, a little annoyed. But I could see a smile spread on her face as her head bent over her parchment to scribble down more notes.
Hogsmeade day finally came. Between the event of the library and today, Ron seemed kind of off a bit. He would be quieter than usual when Hermione was around us, and when she wasn't, he was himself.
Dean, Seamus, Ginny, Neville, Ron, and myself walked into Three Broomsticks and got a table. We ordered a round of butterbeers and started discussing about the new things we saw at Zonko's, and then I noticed Ron staring off to the side. I leaned over a bit to see what he was looking at.
It happened to be none other than Hermione and Chris.
"Hermione must have a thing for Quidditch players, don't you think?" Seamus said, and Ron's attention snapped back to us. Ron gave a questioning look to Seamus.
"Oh, c'mon Ron, even I have noticed," Ginny spoke up. "First it was Krum, then McLaggen, and now she's with Robins." She listed off, counting off with her fingers. "I didn't really approve with the first two, but I think she's hit the jackpot this time."
Ron shrugged his shoulders, and took a sip of butterbeer. He looked back over at the two, and he sprayed his butterbeer all over Neville, and started coughing.
"Hey!" Neville shouted in disgust, taking a napkin and wiping his face.
"Ron, are you okay?" I asked, but I couldn't help but laugh.
Ron nodded his head, and looked back at Chris and Hermione. I leaned over to look towards the direction he was, and saw that the two were in a little snogging session. I looked over at Ginny, and nodded my head towards the two, and a smile spread across her face.
Oh yes, Jealousy finally crashed into Ron at full speed.
A fourth year was walking by with a tray of butterbeers. Ron stuck out his foot in front of the poor boy, and he tripped, sending the butterbeers towards Chris and Hermione, where it spilled all over them.
Ron had busted out laughing as everyone stared, silent. Not a word was said; the only thing you heard was Ron's laugh bouncing off the walls. The butterbeer-soaked Hermione looked furiously over at Ron. Daggers were going straight towards him. She sat up, pulling Chris by the hand, and walked over to Ron, who immediately stopped laughing.
"Ron, seriously, grow up." She said, and walked out of the pub, hand in hand with Chris.
So, as you can already predict, Ron and Hermione had gotten into another row that night.
"YOU'RE SO IMMATURE!" My bushy haired friend yelled at my red headed friend.
"Take cover!" A near by fifth year yelled, and ran under a table. Gryffindors were scrambling all around the common room, racing up to their dorms. Those who wanted to see the row to gossip to others ducked behind couches and hid under desks.
"Well I'd rather be immature than acting like there's a wand stuck up my ass all day!" Ron retorted. I picked up my Herbology book and put it in front of my face. I didn't want to take the risk of getting hit by one of the books Hermione will soon throw.
Hermione's face showed no expression, but her eyes seemed like there was fire glowing in them. Hermione took my Herbology book from my hands, and threw it at Ron, hitting his shoulder. Hermione started walking away to her dormitory, and Ron picked up a piece of parchment, crumbling it into a ball, and throwing it at the back of Hermione's head.
Since that night, Hermione would refuse to talk to Ron, and he started playing pranks whenever Hermione and Chris were alone. Well, when they thought they were alone.
By the first week of November, Chris had broken it off with Hermione. Now, he had said that he fancied Hermione a lot, but he's just tired of Ron always playing pranks on him. He was tired of seeing his hair changing different colors, and tired of waking up every morning with an extra body part.
Hermione became furious with Ron, since it was his entire fault that Chris broke up with her. Ron later apologized and things seemed to get normal again…just for about a week or two.
