Disclaimer- Ok so my lawyer says suing someone for eating their own lollypop is not a legitimate clam but couldn't you have at least given me the bottom of the lollypop stick. I could have made a fire with them and warmed myself up because it is freezing down here. But then you probably aren't thinking right again because before the doctor told you not to think after you brain surgery. And its probably good seeing a before that you didn't even know that I didn't own anything!

Chapter 3

In Which Hermione Talks Too Much And Discovers a Diary

Or

Ron? Sexy?

Ron heard the familiar voices of Hermione and Krum, and he couldn't help but wonder what they were saying. Even though he knew it was wrong, he ducked behind a large statue of a man holding a wand, as they approached…

Ron found himself face to face with his sister. They both blinked twice.

"Ginny, what are you doing back here?"

"Ease dropping, just like yourself."

"I am not ease dropping!"

"Then why are you behind this statue?"

"I err… just didn't want to be told off by Hermione for not helping her with the first years," Ron said in a very unsure tone. Ginny knew he was lying.

"Fine lie to me, just shut up, I want to know what they are saying cause Hermione sucks at girl talk, she doesn't give enough juicy details," Ron made a disgusted face at the thought of "juicy details" and was very glad that Hermione never shared any of those things with himself and Harry. The both grew still as two people came around the corner.

--------------------------------

"So, Why didn't you tell me that you where taking an internship in your last letter?"

"I wanted to surprise you."

"Oh."

"So, what do you think?"

"About what?"

"About me being back at Hogwarts."

"Well I wasn't expecting it."

"I still fancy you."

"We haven't seen each other in two years, how do you still know?"

"Well we wrote from time to time and you don't seemed to have changed, except gotten smarter and prettier." From behind the statue Ginny and Ron peered out to see Hermione blushing. Ron felt a little angry, but he didn't really know why.

"Well a lot has happened, I mean Voldemort killed people I really cared about and just so much has gone on. Even now that he is gone for good he is still affecting everyone especially Harry. I am already behind in my classes I mean I only read my charms textbook two times. I am just not that same exact bushy haired 4th year girl you knew."

"So your saying you would say no if I asked you to Hogsmead?" Ron thought, say you would say no, please, Krum is below you.

Whether Hermione fancied Krum no one knew (not even Hermione), but she replied with a cunning answer, "You are my teacher, it just wouldn't be proper, although it isn't written in the rules. (Which of course Hermione knew by heart) I think that the Dumbledore and the rest of the higher authority in the castle would not be pleased about it."

"You're probably right, but we could date in secret." Ron was repulsed, this was why he didn't like Hermione being alone with Krum; he wanted her to lie and was trying to push her into dating him. Ron fought the ideas of giving Krum a bloody nose.

"Krum you really don't know me. I don't do things behind my friends back, and if Ron knew the whole school would know." Ron thought, hey, what's that suppose to mean?

"Well tell me if you change your mind." Hermione nodded.

--------------------

When Hermione went around the corner Ginny turned to Ron, "See Ron, she fancies you she just turned down Krum."

Ron stood up frustrated and began to walk away, angrily he said, "Hermione turned him down cause she is smart, not because she fancies me. Why don't you understand? Your so bloody arrogant!"

Ron had calmed down a bit by the time he found his way to the prefect lounge, however, he was still muttering under his breathe about Ginny. Indeed today had been a bad day; the only redeeming fact was seeing Hermione again, because he was her best friend of course. Harry spent the summer at the burrow after declaring that he was moving out of the Dursleys' after halfway through the summer. Ron sat down in an armchair next to Hermione, and a few seconds later a grinning Ginny sat a few seats away from them with Luna. The two girls were chatting with a Ravenclaw about a peculiar plant that she had received from Neville for her birthday over the summer. Dumbledore entered the room in emerald green robes.

He cleared the voice and everyone grew quiet. Hermione watched contently, quill posed to take notes, "This year the prefect program has been modified, along with your regular prefect duties, which I am sure were discussed on the train. Everyone will be given individual projects to complete. The projects will be specialized to help each prefect to strengthen in areas they might be struggling in," their was a soft groan from many students, however Hermione was grinning like a maniac. "The projects will be assigned at random times throughout the year, and Hermione you don't need to worry, you will have plenty of time when it is assigned to complete it. Now I am sure you are all very tired so please quickly find your way to your beds."

---------------------------

The prefects drifted off into bed. Hermione found her way to the 7th year's girl's dorm, Parvadie and Lavender were surprisingly still awake. They both were gossiping, while painting their nails matching shades of blue. Hermione changed into a large shirt and a pair of flannel pants that she used as pajamas. As she began to unpack and refold everything she listened to the two girls gossip.

"Lavender did you see Dean staring at that girl in Hufflepuff? It was all to obvious that he's got a thing for her."

"I know I can't believe she didn't catch him watching! I think she has her eye on Seamus though."

"No, I think she thought he was hot last year."

"You might be right, but I thought she caught Seamus snogging that skinny blond 4th year in Slithern."

"Seamus has no taste in girls, she was such a slut."

"He is damn fine though."

"Oh, speaking of fine Ron's hair is getting really sexy, the way it is all shaggy."

Hermione crinkled her nose, she could have sworn that Ron had just become afraid of people giving him haircuts after the twins had tied him up and cut his hair the summer before. After that no one could blame him.

Parvate noticed Hermione's face and exclaimed, "Hermione don't tell me you haven't noticed how hot his hair is! Now that I think of it he kinda has a nice body too, so tall and he is defiantly starting to get built from that Quidditch."

"Well of course he is tall, but sexy?" Hermione said not at all sure she wanted to discuses Ron being sexy, I mean this is Ron.

"Parvate, I don't think Hermione is into the sexy rebellious type. So Hermione do you got your eye on someone?"

"Not really."

"Come on there has to be someone… How about Krum? I saw you two walking together. He is definitely still stuck on you!"

"He is my teacher!"

"So what?!"

"Its just wrong on so many levels."

"Whatever, how about Harry then?"

"Ya, he is kinda cute, but Ron is definitely hotter."

"You too are as crazy as Ginny, they're both my best mates."

"Come on don't tell me you haven't had, had naughty thoughts about them?"

"Naughty thoughts? This is Hermione we are talking about." Hermione finished putting her things away and bid the other two goodnight before shutting the curtains on her four-poster bed. To her surprise she found a blood red bound book. It was her diary that she had started the first day of Hogwarts, of course their where long gaps of time she had not written in due to her loads for homework. She had lost it sometime at the end of last year and apparently one of the house elves had found it. She smiled and opening the book and began to read her own neat curvy artistic writing.
