The Hermione Dance

"Why haven't we told the Headmistress yet?" Ginny asked Hermione a week after the switch.

"I just don't feel right talking deeply with McGonagal. I do think she's very intelligent and wise, but I'm still getting over…"

"I understand," Ginny interrupted.

:Across the Gryffindor common room:

Harry was in an armchair watching Hermione and Ginny sitting at a table whispering while Ron took over a whole couch.

"It's so weird," Harry said slowly," Ginny seems to be sorta resistant of me."

"I don't know about that, but Hermione seems kinda… stupid, especially lask week."

"Yeah, Ginny told me she might be around Hermione a lot more, and she couldn't tell me why."

"Then Hermione yelled, 'Don't do it, Hermione!' then started that long-winded pointless speech on the importance of speaking in third person. Over the past week I've started to develop a resentment for Hermione."

"What's this, Ron? Is your love for Hermione dying?" Harry commented, laughing his head off.

"Are you bringing up last year again?"

"Ell, that scene with Lavender…"

"Don't bring up Lavender. I'm trying to forget the whole thing. Me and Hermione were just closer friends, but now she's kinda annoying. She reminds me of Ginny."

"And Ginny's so absorbed in homework like… Hermione!"

"Harry's eyes suddenly wide as he finally got it. Ron's eyes… didn't.

"Hey, Hermione, could you come here?" Harry called across the common room.

Both of them got up and walked over. When the real Hermione realized her mistake and headed back to the table.

"No, stay Ginny. Stand up, Ron. Let Ginny stand near you."

Everyone was thoroughly confused but did as they were told. After they were in their places, Harry kissed "Hermione" right on the lips. "Ginny" finally realized why she was near Ron as he leapt at Harry. She caught him just in time.

"What are you doing, Ginny! Harry just cheated on you with Hermione in plain view!"

Hermione had a choice. She could indeed admit to Ron and Harry that they had switched lives or they could wait… they had to wait. They had to find out why they switched and how to switch back… after all it could be dark magic.

"Ginny" forcefully shoved Ron to the floor and slapped "Hermione" across the face. "Hermione" stood in shock for a second before pulling "Ginny's" hair.

As "Ginny" preceded to strangle "Hermione" Harry attempted to break them apart. I guess I was wrong, Harry thought.

When they broke apart Hermione was certainly calmer than Ginny. Hermione took a deep breath and turned to Harry.

"After the events that happened I think it's best that we separate for a while. It's just a separation. I won't see any other guys, and promise me you won't see anyone."

"Hermione's" knees buckled, and she fell to the ground. Ron turned pale from the shock of her sobbing.

"What's wrong, 'Mione?"

"I… I just thought that they would be together forever. I didn't WANT them to break up in these few weeks of… of INSANITY!

Harry and Ron exchanged looks. Ron caught "Hermione" just before she attacked "Ginny" and carried her with ease to the hospital wing.

Ron and Harry explained "Hermione's" temporary insanity which wasn't hard to do since she was attempting to escape from Ron while sobbing uncontrollably.

Ginny was left in the hospital wing overnight to calm down. Also, for some reason there were to be no wands in the hospital wing. Something about a dangerous situation…

Ginny was released early morning, but by then everyone had heard of her temporal insanity. Rumours were going around about "Hermione" cracking under the pressure of being a perfect student. People who saw her fit swore she was possessed by Voldemort.

The real Hermione was of course furious at Ginny and embarrassed of the rumours about her… and Ginny. Since she separated from Harry, girls had been trying to swoon over Harry. Harry seemed almost… emotionless. Everyone seemed a little disgruntled against her for Making Famous Harry Potter emotionless and short-tempered.

As Ginny trudged into the common room still kinda whacked out, Hermione, who had been waiting for her, stormed up.

"What's your problem, Ginny! You completely ruined my reputation! Everyone thinks I can break down at any time! They don't want to be around a psycho!"

"Oh! So, it okay that no one wants to speak to me because 'I' made the Famous Harry Potter a famous pain in the ass! How could you break us up!"

"I told him it was just temporarily. You know, until we switch back, that's all."

"Temporarily! You broke my boyfriend's heart temporarily! You're in my body for one week, and you ruin my life!"

"Your life is ruined! Don't you know the school rule of insanity? The first sign of insanity puts you in the hospital wing. The second sign gives you a psychiatrist trained in St. Mungo's (a/n: I have no idea what the hospital name is, please tell me), and the third sign sends you home until you're diagnosed same!"

"Well, in that case…," said Ginny.

Ginny went to the entrance of the girls' and boys' dormitory and yelled for them to climb downstairs. As the group gathered downstairs Ginny stood on top of a table.

"Hey, Gryffindors! Look at me! I'm doing the Hermione dance!" And she preceded to do crazy moves that Hermione might do if she was having a seizure.

Two (unknown) 7th year Gryffindors ran off and soon came back with Headmistress McGonagal. She conjured robes to bound "Hermione" who fell to the ground with a loud thud.

Hermione was mortified at the sight of herself squirming on the ground laughing like a person of mental instability.

"Excuse me," said Hermione as she approached the new Headmistress. "She's just going to get a specially trained psychiatrist, right?"

"Not exactly, Miss Weasley. Miss Granger's a special case. I may have to go beyond the rules."

"What do you mean!"


I don't have any romance yet, but the full blast awkward romance will definitely be in chapter 5... Sorry. The first 4 chapters are pretty general. This may also turn out to be a Ginny/Harry story since they broke up.

Right here I usually put a random question… Quick! Think of a line! Whether it's funny or very serious, please tell me one!

I read all of your reviews, and I'm not allowed to thank you individually, but thank you SO much for reviewing. I do appreciate you all, but I'm particularly excited that legolascrazy17 reviewed before updating one of my favourite fan fictions! I haven't been able to review (I secretly get on the internet and read when I'm not supposed to), but I hope I will later.

Please review… even you want to say that the story sucks… or you like my website (please check it out and sign my guest book).

I LOVE MCR MORE!

Arrivederci
