Summary: Hermione Granger is on a mission of conquest and her target is one Harry Potter. Just some nice smut for you folks, HP/HG

HPHGHPHGHPHG

Hermione awoke the next morning felling exhausted both emotionally and physically. Hermione groaned as she arose from her bed, which caused her roommates to stare at her.

"Mione, what is wrong with you? You normally love morning!" Lavender Brown expressed with great interest. Another roommate, Parvati Patil was wondering the same thing.

"It is nothing Lav, I swear, I just had another bad night."

"Dreaming of Harry again were you? Man, if I dreamed about him, I would never want to wake up! Well that is until I could look at the real thing."

"Sweet Jesus Parvati, back off the hormones a bit! Besides, Hermione has already claimed him."

"What, I have not!" Shrieked Hermione, wondering if anyone had seen her and Harry kiss last night.

"Oh shush Hermione, Parvati and I both know that you like him, so we would never dream of stepping on your toes to get to Harry."

"Speak for yourself Lav, if Mione does not want him, I sure as hell do." And with that Parvati rushed out of the room and headed for breakfast. Hermione groaned. Had she just made things worse for herself by not saying that she liked Harry? Now Parvati might try and make a move on Harry! She groaned again.

"Do not worry about her Mione. Well know that Harry feels the same way about you." Lavender said in a comforting tone before leaving Hermione all alone. Hermione sighed and started to get dressed.

Wait, what? They knew Harry felt the same way about her? Well why didn't they share that information! Great Merlin's ghost! It would have been nice if Hermione knew that information before hand.

Hermione quickly got dressed and headed down to the Great Hall for breakfast. As she entered, she saw that Parvati wasted no time. She was sitting right beside Harry and was obviously flirting with him. Hermione was frozen in shock. Was that Harry flirting back? What the bloody hell? He loved Hermione, what was he doing allowing Parvati to touch his arm like that? That was supposed to be her! Lavender, seeing Hermione's reaction, ran over to her and guided her to the table and sat her down away from Harry. Hermione was disgusted with herself and him. How could she have been so wrong about him, it made her blood boil. She was so wrapped up in her thoughts that she did not even acknowledge Lavender and Ron sitting down on either side of her.

"Man, she has it bad! How come I never noticed this before? I am blind!"

"Ron, shut up. Besides, I think that Mione is just now realizing her feelings for him."

"Okay, enough swooning over my other best friend, eat up Mione."

Hermione, still gazing at Harry and Parvati had not even heard Ron and Lavender speaking to her. Ron, getting tired of being ignored, gently elbowed Hermione, and that seamed to do the trick. She snapped her eyes off Harry and turned to the source of impact.

"Ron! Hey, when did you get here?"

"About five minutes ago."

"Oh, sorry."

"That is okay, I understand." When Hermione gave him a confused look, Ron decided to tell her that he knew. "Look Mione, I know about you and Harry okay."

"What, how do you know? What did you see?"

"Umm, I saw nothing, but I know Harry. He loves you, and I know something must have happened between the two of you last night because he did not sleep at all last night and he is in such a bad mood. He only gets like that when it involves you."

"Oh." Muttered Hermione. Okay, so Harry did love her, according to Ron, but then why was he acting like that. Pushing her away and accepting Parvati's advances? She wanted answers, but she had no idea how to get them. She picked at the food that Lavender had put on her plate, but she really did not want to eat. She wanted to jump over this table and hex Parvati into the next decade. No one would miss her, I mean she did have an identical twin after all. One Patil was enough in her opnion.

Once breakfast was over, the Gryffindors made their way to their first class, Care of Magical Creatures. Ron walked next to Hermione the entire time just to stop her from jumping over and getting Parvati. Harry was doing a damn good job of pushing Hermione away thought Ron. Harry had told him this morning what had happened between himself and Hermione. When Harry told Ron why he wanted to push Hermione away, Ron immediately understood, but still thought that Hermione was worth the risk. Ron was torn between his two friends. Should he stand by Harry, even though he was being an idiot, or should he stand by Hermione, who was in apparent misery?

Over the next few hours, Ron observed his friends, trying to gather as much information before he made his decision. He saw that at every available moment, Parvati was all over Harry. Harry was not stopping her from touching his arm or fawning over him, but when Ron looked at Harry's eyes, he could tell that Harry was not captivated with Parvati. There was not love in his eyes, but rather a deep sadness. He was noticeably not happy. So why didn't he stop Parvati? Ron knew why, he just did not understand it. Ron knew that Harry wanted to push Hermione away, distance himself from her, but Ron also knew that Harry loved Hermione more than anything. Harry had told him that himself, so why do this to himself? And more importantly, why was he doing this to Hermione. All day, Hermione had been melancholy, stealing glances at Harry, but never approaching him. He had clearly been avoiding her, and that had hurt her even more. Ron knew what she must be thinking: Why is he doing this, does ne not love me, did that kiss revolt him? Ron felt so bad for her, she was in pain and it was all Harry's fault. Hermione did not even have all of the information so she did not understand, and Ron had all the answers but he still didn't understand.

Okay, this is SO stupid, I am going to have to interfere here, thought Ron. Harry and Hermione's friendship will never survive this, there are too many strong feelings here. And if Harry kept on hurting Hermione like this, Ron was sure that their friendship would not last either. Ron could no longer just stand by and watch Harry hurt Hermione, he had to take action.

After diner that night, Ron gently pulled Hermione aside having decided that action needed to be taken.

"Hermione, this needs to stop."

"What are you talking about Ron, I have not done anything."

"Exactly. You have just watched Harry all day, but you have done nothing. You are plainly in love with Harry, but you just watch him push you away. Why Mione?"

Hermione sighed. "Ron, you do not understand, hell, I do not understand what is happening."

"Well find out Hermione! You love him, he loves you, so do something about it!"

"I already have Ron, we kissed last night!" Shouted Hermione, then blushed when she realized what she had just revealed. Ron spoke before she had a chance to retract what she said.

"I already know about that."

"What! Did you see us?"

"No, Mione, Harry told me this morning that he kissed you."

"He what? What did he say? Did he tell you why he pushed me away? Why should I go after him, he is the one that pushed me away!"

"I do not think that it is my place to tell you Hermione..."

"Ron! You know? I mean, you actually know? He told you? Why can't he tell me?"

"Harry told me why he is pushing you away, yes, but I do not understand it. You need to get him to open up Hermione, force him to tell you. I know he loves you, he told me this morning, but he is scared."

"Scared, of what?"

"Hurting you. Look Hermione, it really should be Harry telling you this, not me. You have to force him to open up, get him to talk to you. And let me tell you, if I have to put up with another day of this, I will disown you both!"

With that Ron walked away leaving Hermione alone in the corridor. Okay, so Harry does have a reason, and he told Ron! That is just not fair! I deserve to know, not Ron. And that git, why didn't he just tell me what Harry said! Okay, this must be pretty serious if Ron threatened their friendship.

I have to get Harry to open up, I need him to open up. He can pretend that he does not love me all he wants, but several people today have told me that Harry loves me, so I know he does. So why push me away? He is afraid that he is going to hurt me! Well he is already doing that, so what is a few more times? Hermione decided that she would get her answers one way or another. So what if she got hurt, she just had to know! And if Harry did not tell her, she was going to have to hurt Ron. She decided that she was going to get her answers, she was once again a woman on a mission, and some silly girl like Parvati was not going to stop her again.

HPHGHPHGHPHG

When Ron entered his room, he walked right past Harry. They had not talked since this morning and Ron wanted to keep it that way. He was so disgusted by Harry at that moment. Could he not see how much he was hurting Hermione? Well Ron did not get his wish because Harry called out to him.

"Hey mate, where have you been all day?"

"I was consoling the girl you love you git."

"What, Hermione? What is wrong with her?"

"You idiot! You kiss her, you leave her confused, and then you give all of you attention to her roommate! What do you think is wrong with her!"

"I did not give all of my attention to Parvati! She was just there all day, and you and Hermione were no where to be found so I had to talk to someone."

"And it just had to be a girl who was fawning all over you? Good one mate."

"Hey, who are you to judge me Ron, You have no idea what..."

"Shut up Harry!" Interrupted Ron. "Who an I to judge? I am your best friend, but I am also Hermione's best friend. You are hurting her, and you do not have to be!"

"But I would hurt her even more if we were together, don't you see that?"

"No one knows what the future holds, not even Trelawney. You love each other, that is more than enough. I think that you two have a love that people only dream about, but you are too stupid to see that."

"I know that Ron, but I cannot let her get that close to me! I just can't okay!"

"Fine Harry. Keep on telling your self that, but we both know that that answer is not gonna subdue Hermione. She has the right to know why you are pushing her away. And I swear to god, if you do not tell her soon, I will, because I cannot deal with all of this teenage angst!"

Ron did not give Harry time to respond. He headed straight to his bed and pulled the curtains closed effectively ending their conversation.

Merlin, what have I gotten myself into? Thought Harry. How am I going to face Hermione tomorrow? I really have been an ass, but I had to do it for her own good, but I did not want her to hate me! Harry groaned out loud and headed towards the bathrooms. Maybe a nice hot shower would take away some of his stress, but probably not.
