Stuck Together:
Summary: Harry and Hermione are handcuffed together by the twins as a prank, angering Ron. The worst part? They lost the key.
AN: Okay a lot of people were asking things like "Why don't they use magic?" Well I have good reason for it and why they chose Harry and Hermione. I will answer all your questions. Sorry I haven't been updating or reviewing or anything but my internet decided it hates me and wouldn't work for three weeks. But here's this chapter! I tried to write it as fast as I could because of the outstanding amounts of reviews I received! Greedily takes reviews to her cave Hee hee…
Chapter Two:
Fred and George calmed Hermione down and sat Harry and her down.
"Okay now you guys are just going to have to deal with being together a lot now until we find a way to separate you." Fred started off.
"And don't try magic because these have a special charm on them so only one thing, other than the key, will open them, not anything magic can simply conjure up." George finished for him.
"What's that one thing?" Hermione asked.
"That we cannot tell you, you'll have to figure it out yourself." George said. "Now if you'll excuse us, Fred and I have some pressing matters to attend to. Good day." They nodded and went of on their merry way.
Harry and Hermione sat in silence for a while until Hermione finally spoke up.
"Where are we supposed to sleep?" She said weakly. "Boys can't go in the girl's dormitory and the boy's includes, well, the sixth year boys."
"We could 'study' for a long time every night in the common room until everyone goes to sleep and sleep down there… But we'd have to be sure to wake up before everyone else."
"I know! Why don't I just put the invisibility cloak over me! Then none of the boys would see me." Hermione snapped her fingers looking rather pleased with herself.
"What're we going to do about your room though? The girls will surely notice you aren't going up there."
"Not really, I'm quiet and tend to go to bed far after them and wake up before them so they'll be none the wiser." Hermione quieted down her voice a little, sounding a bit ashamed not even her roommates could recognize when she had come or gone.
"Okay sleeping is set up… I guess we'll have to walk to all our classes together or something so no one sees these" He held up his hand which was connected to Hermione's. "It'll be easy once we're in class… I dunno what're going to do about classes we don't have together though."
"We'll have to see Dumbledore. I'll explain our problem and perhaps we can get a time turner… When your in my classes you'll wear the invisibility cloak and vice-versa with me." Hermione started to trail off and think of ideas in her head.
"What about showering and other… Toiletries…? Harry asked carefully.
"Oh my gosh! I was so wrapped up in school I completely forgot we will have to shower and get changed! Harry what are we going to do?" She sat down and looked rather upset at the last sentence.
Neither Harry nor Hermione had realized until this point what had just happened. They were stuck together for and unknowledgeable amounts of time. This was something Hermione actually hadn't read in a book before. The very thought shocked her. Harry was sitting quietly with Hermione beside him trying to think out the situation when he heard a small whimper and a sobbing noise come from beside him.
Hermione had rested her head on her one free hand and now tears were flowing freely from her eyes.
"Harry, what're we going to do? Everyone will surely notice. What will we do about Ron? He will realize we have to stay near each other, he's not that daft."
"Then we'll tell him, he is our best friend he won't make fun of us."
"So you're telling me Fred and George got you two together for unfathomable amounts of time?" It was late at night and Harry and Hermione were explaining their situation to Ron in the common room. "So at the end of this either you'll hate each other or be closer than ever…"
"Nonsense Ron, everything will be exactly the same at the end of this. We just need to find a way to get out of these without a key." Hermione said and looked at the clock. "We should go to bed; everyone should be asleep by now. Luckily we don't have classes tomorrow. We can talk to Dumbledore tomorrow."
Hermione, Harry and Ron climbed the stairs to the boy's dormitory but Ron went in before Hermione and Harry so he could get the invisibility cloak. He silently handed it to Hermione who swept it over top of her. You couldn't even tell Harry had a handcuff on one arm. Ron went to bed rather quickly and closed his bed hangings. Harry gestured with his arm to his bed, and he felt an invisible force pull him to it.
Hermione fell asleep almost instantly, Harry however lay awake feeling incredibly lucky to have a sleeping girl next to him. He had almost fallen asleep when Hermione moved around and accidentally snuggled up to his chest. The invisibility cloak fell off her head letting Harry see her beautiful face. Harry soon fell asleep after that.
AN: Yeah I know I said they'd be longer but the thing with being away from school is you have a lot of work to catch up on. I have around three projects and two tests to study for. So you'll have to make do with this. But the more reviews I have to more motivation and faster postings… hint hint, nudge nudge
