Hermione was completely outraged at Ron's behavior. She couldn't believe how rude he was! And to top it all, she had to make up with Brad.
She entered her Muggle Studies classroom and immediately found Brad, sitting next to him.
"Hello," she greeted him with an imbaraced smile; "I'm sorry about earlier…" she began.
"Oh no worries, I'll just make sure I'm not…how'd he put it?... 'batting lashes' with you anymore."
Hermione was taken aback at his rudeness; "Brad, he's just jealous…" she began.
Brad snorted as a few other people walked into the class room.
"Fine," said Hermione, gathering up her carefully laid out books, "If you're going to be that way, maybe Ron really was a better choice," she said, and stalked off to the back of the class room.
She angrily sat down; what was wrong with everybody anyway? No one was exactly getting along this year.
"Welcome to muggle studies," Professor Sinistra said, standing behind her desk. But Hermione barely heard her.
