A/N: another chapter as promised thanx to everyone who left a review, I have no idea where the common rooms are so I just made them up.

Hermione woke up early her pillow drenched in the tears she had shed the previous night, she woke up and got dressed, her trunk had been moved from the Gryffindor tower, and she took a deep breath and went downstairs. The common room looked different than it had the previous night, Instead of the red squishy chairs they had a navy blue colour, she went to a hole that was behind a statue she climbed out the statue and looked around, wow directly in front of her was the photo that marked the room of requirements.

"You know you may want to move to let other people through" A girl behind her said pushing Hermione out of the way.

"Sorry" Hermione said and walked away until she got completely lost.

She sighed; this day was going to be bad.

-

Ron woke up looked around and screamed, then suddenly came to his senses remembering the previous night, he scanned the room looking for another ex-Gryffindor, Dean and Seamus were on either side of him, and he smiled.

Dean had grabbed his wand and now had it ready and aimed at Ron's bed, Seamus had sprung out of bed and had his fists clenched.

"Calm down guys" Ron said

"Huh," Seamus said unclenching his fists.

Ron shook his head and walked out of the common room he found himself face to face with the picture of fruit that was hiding the location of the kitchen.

From there Ron remembered his way to the Great Hall, he saw Hermione sitting at the Ravenclaw table looking very with drawn, Harry sat a few places down from Hermione he sat at the Hufflepuff table and helped himself to some breakfast.

While he was eating he received his new timetable, first up was Herbology, Ron sighed but smiled when he saw which house he was partnered with, Ravenclaw Hermione he thought.

-

Ron hurried down to the green houses and bumped into Hermione on the way, Hermione smiled and Ron grinned back.

"Hey, how are you?" Hermione asked

"Good, good," Ron replied,

"Cool, anybody you know in your house?" Hermione asked

"Yeah, Dean and Seamus, you?" Ron asked

"Harry, Parvati and Lavender" Hermione replied

"This is terrible, Fred and George are lucky they escaped last year" Ron said

"Yeah" Hermione said

Ron held out his hand and Hermione took it and they strode off to Herbology. They arrived just as Professor Sprout arrived. Herbology went well when it was over Ron checked his timetable, Potions he groaned as he read who he was with Slytherin.

-

Ron hurried to the dungeon in which his timetable stated, when he arrived there he scratched his head in confusion, his class wasn't in this dungeon he ran along the line of dungeons until he finally saw a class in one, he rushed in,

"Ten points from Hufflepuff Mr. Weasley class started exactly 7 minutes ago come on sit down now." Professor Snape said as Ron burst into the room. Ron looked around for a seat and saw that the only one available was in the front row next to Neville.

He dumped his bag next to the desk and got started on the potion that Snape had written on the board. Soon his potion was the same as everyone else's a hot pink colour. Ron concentrated on his potion, hmm, why haven't I ever concentrated this hard before, he thought.

Snape came around to Ron's cauldron and reluctantly said "Not bad Mr. Weasley" which scared Ron; he never got any compliments from Snape. Finally when the bell went he went to get a flask and stowed away his potion gave the flask to Snape and left.

-

Ron had a study in the next period so he went to the library, when he walked in he saw the back of Hermione's bushy brown hair with bits of frizz going everywhere.

"Hey" He whispered

Hermione smiled "Hey, do you have a free period now too?"

"Yep, thankfully, Snape just gave me a foot long essay on moonstones." Ron said complained

Hermione giggled and received a glare from their librarian. "Don't forget that essay Professor Sprout set us"

Ron smacked himself on the head with his hand, he had completely forgotten about it.

Hermione giggled again, "meet me here again tonight with a draft and I'll edit it for you" she said.

"Ok" Ron agreed and got to work on his essay.
