Hermione walked down from the Gryffindor Girl's dormitory happily, carrying her bookbag which looked like it would burst from being overstuffed with heavy textbooks. "Morning Ron, Harry." she said giving them a smile as she sat down at the table.

"Morning Hermione" Harry said staring into the fire, as if Sirius's head would appear there any second. "What are you so happy about?" Ron said looking at her. "Nothing that concerns you Ron!" she said snappishly grabbing a quill and some parchment.

"Touchy must be Krum" Harry said absent mindedly. "I mean um did I say Krum I meant umm..see you in the Great Hall" Harry said walking quickly out of the common room. Hermione glared at Harry as he left. "Your still talking to him Hermione!" Ron shouted. "Yes so what if I am, I'm allowed to talk to anyone I please." Hermione said angrily.

"So what does he want Hermione, for you to come meet his rich family in Bulgaria!" Ron said still shouting. "Ron will stop!" Hermione said blushing. "You know what fine..Victor is coming to Hogwarts!" she yelled. "For what...you?" Ron retaliated. Hermione was blushing furiously now "If it was it's none of your business!" she shouted and with that she walked out of the common room.

Ron followed Hermione and they arrived at the Gyffindor table in silence. "Victor Krum..ugly git" Ron mumbled as he sat down beside Harry. They both had taken the "I'm ignoring you till you can't stand it approach" as Hermione opened her Daily Prophet and disappeared behind it.

Harry rolled his eyes and sighed..he couldn't stand forced conversation. "What kind of last name is Krum anyway" Ron mumbled on. "Harry can you asked Hermione to pass me the crumpets please?" Ron said glaring at Hermione. "I've had enough of you!" Hermione shouted, that everyone turned and looked at her..she blushed. "Me..what did I do all I asked was for a simple passing of food." Ron said innocently.

"Guys will you shut up!" Harry said irritably. They were all in such a fuss they didn't notice a young man walk up behind Hermione..but the whole Great Hall certainly did. "Hermi-no-ninny!" Hermione turned around. "Victor!" she got up and hugged him.

"Oh my goodness look at you!" Hermione said, the now 20 year old Victor had grown more taller and more muscular. "Look atz you, you look wonde-ful!" He said happily. "Your english sounds better she" said. "Harry and its iz.." he said looking at Ron. "Ronald Weasley" Ron said uncaringly but Hermione could tell he was excited.

"Rightz the red he'ded boy, Hermi-no-ninny haz told me lotz about you!" Victor said. "Really" Ron raised his eyebrows. Dumbledore walked down to greet Victor..."Welcome back to Hogwarts is there anything I can do to help your stay here more enjoyable." "Iz there anyway I can stay in the Gyffin-diorz Common Room." "Yes that can be arranged." Dumbledore said his eyes falling on Ron's frown.

"Ok this is all of Gyffindor tower except for the Girl's Dormitory of course" Hermione said smirking. "Tis iz very nize" Victor said looking around. "Oh cheer up Ron." Harry said as he and Ron sat playing wizard chess. "He's all over her Harry, look at him, I'm Krum internation quidditch player look at me I can't speak english very well !" Ron said still mumbling.

"What time is it?" Harry said a little panicky. "Almost noon, you alright?" Ron said looking at him strangely. "Of course why wouldn't I be" Harry said calming down. They were interrupted by Hermione's laughter.."Oh Victor stop..I'm not really that smart." Ron frowned.

"Just face it mate your jealous" Harry said simply. "What have you lost it Harry why would I be jealous of Vicky over there." said angrily. "If you don't see it now..your completely blind Ron" Harry said getting up after winning to Ron something he'd rarely accomplished.
