Harry woke up the next morning to find Ron's snoring had reached climax. He tried to roll over and cover his ears with his pillow but it didn't even seem to soften the snores.
Harry got up and went into a shower and put his clothes on. He walked down stairs to find Ginny sitting by herself. "Morning Gin" Harry said cheerfully. Ginny looked up and smiled. Harry took at seat next to her. "How come your brother always finds a way to wreck my year?" Harry asked. Ginny looked up.
"What you talking about Harry?" Ginny asked puzzled.
"Never mind" Harry answered. Ginny shook her head and went back to what she was doing.
"How'd your little chats with Hermione go last night?" Harry asked trying not to seem like he was dying to know what they were discussing, now that Ron liked Hermione too. Ginny's eyebrows rose, "Nothing justabout boys why are you so interested Harry?" Ginny asked, trying to get an answer out of Harry. Harry struggled for a moment. "No reason just don't want you corrupting my Hermione" Harry said happy with himself.
"You're Hermione?" Ginny asked tilting her head.
"Yes my Hermione, who knows what crazy stuff you've gotten into her head.
They both turned at the sound of someone behind them, it was Hermione.
"Good morning guys, why are you all up so early?" Hermione asked yawning.
"Well I had some business to take care of" Ginny explained.
"And Ron snoring reached breaking point" Harry smirked. Hermione laughed. Ginny started to pack up her things,
"Well I have to go get some things done, I'll see you guys at breakfast" Ginny grabbed her stuff and walked through the portrait door.
"Wonder what stuff she has to take care of?" Harry asked.
"Who knows" Hermione answered. Hermione yawned again, "So Mr. Potter tell me about Ronald's snores" laughed Hermione, "I do feel sorry for you" Hermione said.
Harry smirked, "Well Ron's reached this point in his lungs where they can't hack it and have let it rip, to be honest" Harry went on.
Time passed about hearing about Ron's snores, Hermione's talks with Ginny, what they did on the summer and other stuff. Ron woke up and headed down stairs. His first sight was Hermione's hand on Harry's as he told her about the Dursley's and what terrible stuff they put him through. Their eyes were locked with each others, and their body language was far to comfy for Ron's liking.
Ron made a grunt, which got the two's attention, Harry quickly removed his grasp with Hermione's hand.
Hermione noticed this and felt a little hurt inside. "Hey mate" Harry said, but all Ron could think about was 'mates don't steal each others crushes' Ron shook that thought off and sat down between the two. Hermione and Harry both moved over, awkwardly. The trio sat with each other, with Harry and Hermione both dying to be alone with each other and Ron dying to be alone with Hermione. Time passed with them all discussing their summers. Finally other Gryffindor students started to wake. Lavender came down the stairs smiling happily. "Hi Ron" She said sweetly, Ron smiled, "Err…. Hi Lavender" She walked by him, smiling deeply at him. A grin appeared on Hermione's face, she knew what lavender was doing, as she had tried it many a times with Harry, and seemed to work a charm. Ron got up and called after Lavender. Leaving Harry and Hermione alone, Harry looked at Hermione smiled and moved in closer to her. "So… first day you scared?" Harry asked.
"Harry when have I ever been scared of learning" Hermione answered, knowing she would possibly get a reaction off Harry. Harry rolled his eyes, "Bloody hell Hermione, I saw that one coming" He said. Hermione smiled, "Am I that obvious?" She asked. They both laughed, when Ginny walked back through the portrait door, to find Dean in her path. They both watched on as Ginny and Dean flirted with each other. "He likes her" Harry said, "But you can't say anything" Harry said softly. Hermione looked up, "good cause she likes him too" Hermione said, "And don't you say a word Harry Potter" Hermione said putting her finger to his mouth. Harry looked down at Hermione's finger on his lips. He grabbed it and tied her up with her hands, crossing them over each other to create a very hard bind to get out of. She had given up the instant he touched her hand, she sat leaning against his chest in the bind, When she felt Harry's breath against her. "Give up?" He asked.
"Never" Hermione replied, Harry let her go slowly. They stared at each other for a split second, when Harry's hand met Hermione's cheek, "You've got an eyelash" Harry made up just to touch her. His hand rubbed against Hermione's cheek. But Ron talked to Lavender spotted this, and ran over and interrupted this intimate moment. Harry and Hermione both sighed angry with Ron's time.
