The ride home was silent as ever. Even the music didn't bring talking. Hermione stopped in front of the video rental place. She got out of the car and everyone followed. They went into the video store and started wandering around looking for a good movie."How about this one?" Ron asked holding up a D.V.D with a bunch of colorful bears on the front not to mention it was upside down and in Spanish. Hermione started laughing like crazy. Ginny and Harry came over to see what was so funny. Harry started laughing along with Hermione but Ginny looked confused.
"Ron-" Hermione started trying to catch herself from laughing. "-Ron that is a kids movie! It's called Care Bears. And it's in Spanish!"
"Where does it say that?" He asked.
"Right here!" Hermione walked over and flipped it over showing Ron the case with bears and that it said Care Bears in Spanish. His ears turned pink from embarrassment.
"It looks different upside down!"
"What about this?" Hermione held up a D.V.D. "It's called With Out A Paddle."
"Ok!" Harry said.
"Sure!" Ginny exclaimed.
"What's it about?" Ron asked.
"You have to make this difficult don't you?"
"That's my job!" Ron smirked sarcastically. Hermione playfully slapped him. "Ow!" Ron rubbed his arm.
"Aw, are you ok?" Hermione rubbed his arm for him.
"I don't know? I might have to go to St. Mungo's!" Ron said. Harry and Ginny quietly slipped away un-noticed leaving them alone.
"I doubt it but just to make sure," She leaned up and kissed him on the cheek, "There! Better now?"
"Yeah I think so but you might have to make it even," Ron pointed to his other cheek.
"Fine!" Hermione kissed him on his other cheek lingering there for only a second. Ron held his breath in as she kissed him. He didn't think she would do it again. They were silent for a minute staring at each other. Ron stared into Hermione's energetic chocolate brown eyes as she stared into his lively blue ones. Hermione broke the stare. "So do you feel better now?"
"I think I'll live!" Ron joked. "So want to get that movie?"
"Yeah!" She looked around for Harry and Ginny but they weren't there. She searched above the racks of videos and saw them three isles over making out.
"Eww not in front of me please!" Ron covered his eyes and they parted.
"Sorry!" Ginny exclaimed. Harry didn't say anything but turned and followed Ginny to them. Hermione walked over to the counter and paid for the video rental. They walked out of the video store and into the car. It was still sunny so Hermione pulled her sunglasses back over her eyes and started the car. "So are we going swimming now?" Ginny asked eagerly. Hermione looked at her watch seeing that it was only 2:30.
"Yup!" Hermione replied turning down her street.
"Gin, how are you going to decide what bathing suit to wear?" Harry asked.
"Well I will put them in color order I guess, or maybe newest first! Or maybe-"
"Never mind I don't want to know!" Harry sighed. Hermione pulled into the driveway and turned off the car. They took out all of their bags from the trunk. She led them around the back of the house this time. In the back there was a pool in the middle of a few lawn chairs. The pool had steps leading into it and several ladders for each height. The pool ranged from 2ft to 6ft. By the pool there were several pool equiptment and cleaning stuff. She led them through a sliding door into her kitchen.
"Ok let's go change and meet down here in 10 minutes!" Hermione cheerfully headed up to her room followed by Ginny. Ginny put the bags on her bed and started rummaging through them. Hermione fell on her bed and stared at the ceiling but only seeing Ron's face.
"Do you think I should wear this one?" Ginny asked Hermione.
"Yeah sure Gin!" Hermione replied dazed.
"You didn't even look!" Hermione sat up and looked at the blue bathing suit Ginny bought in one of the other stores they went to.
"I think that one's cute you should wear it!" Hermione looked through her bags and found her turquoise bathing suit. They both got changed and went down to the kitchen. Hermione grabbed some sunscreen off of the counter as Ron and Harry came down the stairs. Hermione's mouth fell open as she saw Ron without his shirt on. He was built. He had on navy blue swimming shorts and she could see how muscular he was. She didn't realize how long she was staring.
"Hermione!" She turned her attention to Ginny.
"Yes," She tried to make it look like she was paying attention this whole time but it didn't exactly work.
"Uh… do we have towels?" Ginny responded.
"Yeah I'll go get them!" Hermione headed down the stairs her cheeks as red as ever.
"Believe me now?" Harry asked Ron.
"What are you talking about?" Ron looked oblivious because he wasn't paying attention to what happened because he was staring at Hermione in her bathing suit. Harry just rolled his eyes as Hermione came up the stairs with 4 towels. She gave Ron a blue one, Harry a green one, Ginny an orange one, and kept a pink one for herself. They walked back through the glass door. They each chose a lawn chair and dropped their stuff on it. They each put on sunscreen and walked to the edge of the pool.
"Is it cold?" Harry asked dipping his feet in.
"Why don't you find out!" Ginny screamed pushing Harry in the pool. He fell in making a big splash.
"That wasn't funny!" Harry shouted surfacing over the water. "Help me up?" Harry held out his hand and Ginny took it.
"Fine!" She said. He pulled her in and she screamed before falling in next to him. Ron and Hermione were doubled over laughing at them.
"Wanna jump?" Hermione asked Ron.
"Sure!" He grabbed her hand and they jumped. They went underwater and came up. Hermione brushed her bangs away from her face.
"So what do you want to play?" Hermione asked shivering, underwater.
"We could play chicken?" Harry suggested.
"What's chicken?" Ginny asked.
"You get on someone's shoulders and then you try to knock the other person off of someone's shoulders!" Hermione informed them.
"Ok!"
"Sure!" Ginny started to get on Harry's shoulders. Hermione looked at Ron.
"Turn around so I can get on you shoulders!" He said to her.
"Ha, ha! Funny!" She replied.
"Here get on!" He plugged his nose and then went underwater so she could get on his shoulders. She got on his shoulders. He stood up and steadied himself. He faced Harry.
"One, two, three!" Hermione screamed as they started to wrestle each other down. Hermione almost had Ginny down but Harry reached up and started tickling Hermione on her sides. She fell over and brought Ron with her too. "CHEATERS!" Hermione screamed as she came above the water.
"You never said there were any rules!" Harry laughed.
"Like you even play by the rules Potter!" Hermione took her hand and splashed him.
"Hey!" He splashed Ron. And then Ron splashed Ginny. There was a big splash match going on now and no one could see anything. Hermione quickly swam to the edge and climbed out. She quickly walked around to the edge where they were.
"Watch out!" She screamed and jumped in making a big splash.
"That's it?" Ron challenged as she came above the water.
"Think you can do better?" She challenged right back.
"You bet!" He pulled himself out of the pool and walked over to the edge. Hermione couldn't help stare at his body-soaking wet, as he got ready to jump. He took a breath and jumped in making a bigger splash than Hermione's.
"I guess you've out jumped me, but what does that prove?" Hermione said sarcastically. Harry and Ginny moved to the 4ft section leaving them in the 6ft section.
"Oh, so you think your funny?" He asked her.
"Yes as a matter of fact I do!" She said proudly. He disappeared underneath the water and Hermione looked around. She didn't see him. "Ron? Ron? Ahhhhhh!" She screamed as she was being thrown in the air by Ron who threw her as he popped out from underneath the water. She landed and made an even bigger splash than Ron.
"Now that's what I call a splash!" He laughed.
"Not…funny!" She said splashing him.
"I thought it was!" He splashed her back. There was a splashing war going on between them now. Harry and Ginny got out of the water.
"Ready?" Ginny whispered, "One, two, three!" Harry and Ginny jumped in after them. Ron and Hermione screamed and swam away from the jumping couple. They played another round of chicken and splashing war until 6:00 when they decided to get out. Hermione ordered the pizza before going to change. Hermione ordered 2 large pizzas one plain cheese and the other everything. She went upstairs to find Ginny sitting on her bed giving her a mischievous grin.
"What?" Hermione asked.
"I saw you staring at him!" She said.
"I don't know what your talking Hermione brushed off.
"Whatever! Can I take a shower?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah I'm going to go get the pizza," Hermione said. Ginny grabbed her stuff and went to the bathroom. Hermione changed back into the clothes she was wearing before. She pulled her hair into a messy bun and grabbed her purse off of her dresser. She walked out of her room and down the hall. She stopped at the door to the guest room. Before she could think she softly knocked on the door. She didn't think anyone could here her so she got ready to walk until Ron came to the door wearing only his khaki shorts. She held her breath in.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Uh… I was going to get pizza and I wanted to know if you wanted to come?" She released her breath.
"Yeah hang on a second," He grabbed his shirt off of the bed and pulled it over his head. He walked toward the door.
"Oh, Harry downstairs in the kitchen there are stairs that lead to the family room there is a shower down there in the bathroom if you want. Ginny is in the one up here."
"Thanks!" Harry said. Ron and Hermione descended the stairs and walked out of the front door. They got into Hermione's mini cooper.
"So we're going to get pizza right?" Ron broke the silence.
"Right!" Hermione pulled out of her driveway.
"What kind of pizza did you get?"
"Well I know your favorite is everything! So I got that and cheese." Hermione said.
"Thanks!"
"No problem! Oh, we have to stop at the store so I can get some soda and popcorn."
"Ok! So did you have fun in the pool?"
"Yeah Mr. Show off!"
"What do you mean?" He asked innocently. Hermione meant that he was showing off his body but didn't tell him that.
"With your splashes!" She said.
"That was not showing off!"
"What was it then?"
"I don't know!" Hermione then pulled into the parking lot for the grocery store. She got out of her car and he followed her. "So are you ticklish?"
"No!"
"That sounded like a lie and we lost on chicken because you were! Was it right here?" He started tickling her sides.
"No!" She shrieked and ran into the store. They stopped once in the store because people were looking at them funny. Hermione led him to the soda section. "What kind do you want?" She asked still clutching her side in fear that he would start tickling her.
"I don't know I've never had soda before."
"Well then we have to get sprite, coke, root beer, and Dr. pepper." Hermione handed him two bottles of soda and took the other two. "Come on we should get some pop corn and chips."
"Pop- what?" Ron followed her. Once they left the store they each had at least three bags full of junk food. They got back to the car, putting the food in the trunk. Once they got in the car and Hermione started the car Beverly Hills by Weezer came on.
"Oh! I love this song!" Hermione turned up the volume on the radio as she pulled out of the parking lot. Ron watched her sing to the song and bob her head. He laughed. "What?"
"You will never cease to amaze me," He said making her blush his ears turned red because he couldn't believe that, that came out of his mouth. She pulled into the parking lot for the pizza place so their conversation was cut off. They went inside and picked up the pizza and put it on the back seat and started driving home.
"So I amaze you?"
"Well yeah I mean you are like the smartest girl I know and your original, individual, and unpredictable."
"Thanks!" Hermione smiled and blushed. They talked about Hogwarts for the rest of the trip back to Hermione's house. Ron carried the pizza in his hands with some of the bags while Hermione carried the rest. She didn't let him use magic for that. They walked through the back into the kitchen. Ron put the pizzas down and started helping Hermione put the food away.
"I wonder where Ginny and Harry are?" Ron said. Just then they heard giggling from the next room. "You know what never mind! I don't want know!" Hermione laughed and Harry and Ginny walked in.
"Hi!" Ginny said cheerfully. Hermione went to the cabinet and took down four plates and four cups. She poured soda and served pizza. They all took their seats at the table. After dinner Ginny and Harry offered to clean up. Ron and Hermione headed upstairs.
"So where's this other shower?" Ron asked.
"Downstairs through the door in the kitchen and then down some more stairs." Hermione informed him.
"Thanks!" He walked into the guest room. Hermione went into her room and got her stuff to shower with. After showering she walked back to her room to pick out some pajamas it was 8:00 now so they would probably start the movie soon. Hermione picked out a pair of blue shorts and a big white t-shirt advertising her parent's dentistry. She brushed her hair and put it into a ponytail. She then went to lie on her bed. Hermione couldn't stop thinking about Ron. "You never cease to amaze me!" He had said that to her. He also said that she was original, individual, unpredictable and the smartest girl he knew. Just then Ginny came into the room.
"Hey!" She went over to her trunk to get some pajamas.
"Hi!" Hermione replied. "So what were you and Harry doing when we came in?"
"Oh, we were just watching the telervision," She took out a pair of light purple shorts and a matching tank top out of her trunk, "We were just messing with Ron. It's fun." Ginny started changing into her pajamas. When she was done they went down stairs to get the food ready.
"Here put these in the bowls," Hermione handed a few bags of chips to Ginny pointing to the bowls next to her. Ginny did that. Hermione took the popcorn out of the box and put it in the microwave. She started to take a bottle of soda out of the fridge when the popcorn stopped. She put the soda on the table and went over to the microwave. She took out the popcorn and put it into another bowl. She grabbed four cups. Ginny and Hermione carried all of the food downstairs where the bigger TV was. They set it up on the table and put the movie in. Then they went to go get the boys. Hermione led the way to the guest room. Once they got there Hermione knocked on the door a little harder than she did before. When no one came she opened the door. Neither Harry nor Ron was there. Ginny and Hermione looked at each other confused. They descended the stairs and went into the living room. Harry and Ron were on the couch watching TV. Ron was staring at it amazed.
"They don't use any magic?"
"Nope!" Harry answered with a laugh.
"Hey!" Ron exclaimed standing up, after seeing them. Hermione saw him wearing a blue t-shirt and blue and red striped boxers.
"Ready for the movie?" Hermione asked him.
"Yeah!" Harry exclaimed standing up too. He was wearing a white t-shirt and green and white-checkered boxers. He took Ginny's hand and they walked into the kitchen Ron made a sound that sounded like an angry grunt. He then focused his attention on Hermione.
"Shall we?" Ron asked holding out his arm for Hermione.
"We shall!" She put her arm through his and they followed Ginny and Harry downstairs to the basement. Harry and Ginny took a seat on the loveseat downstairs. Ron and Hermione took a seat on the couch and Hermione played the movie. Hermione had a good time watching Ron's amazed expression during the movie. Ron enjoyed watching Hermione laugh during the movie. Ron was shocked that she was sitting with him for that long. He thought that maybe she would get annoyed with him or something and move to the chair. Hermione seemed to be thinking along the same lines that she was too close to him and that he would move. Toward the end of the movie Ron noticed that Hermione fell asleep on his shoulder. He turned his head careful not to wake her up. He noticed Harry and Ginny asleep to in the same position. He tilted his head on hers and fell asleep too.
