Thank you for all the reviews! They were amazing.

"Her-gasp-mione!" Ron exclaimed as his head broke from the water.
Hermione dived into the water and swam up to him, "Hello." She said calmly as she rose from the water in front of him.
"You……" he broke his sentence, What was he supposed to say? She looked darn right sexy!
"You look bloody brilliant!" he exclaimed, finally finding the words.
Hermione smirked, "I can say the same about you." She said before turning around and gliding over to Ginny who was stuffing her hand into her mouth, trying to suppress her giggles, leaving Ron in the water only to stare at Hermione go.
"Excuse me." A female voice said coldly, bringing Ron back to earth.
Ron twisted to Noelle who looked at him angrily from the river bench, "I believe you were talking to me." She hissed.
"Oh, right." Said Ron apologetically.
"That's okay, I forgive you." Noelle said, regaining her sweet voice.
Ron nodded and clambered back onto the land. He didn't sit down though; instead he gazed distractedly at Hermione and Ginny who were swimming out of sight behind a big rock.
"What are they doing?" he though out loud.
"I don't know and I don't care……Come sit with me Ron." Noelle said, looking up at him with puppy eyes and holding out her hand to help him down.
Ron looked back to the Rock, then to Noelle, "Awright." He said, getting down.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Fred and George watched the girls swim out of sight. They locked eyes and nodded with evil grins.
"C'mon." George whispered before plunging into the water, Fred followed suit.
The brothers swam under the murky water, being perfectly capable of seeing since they had taken one of their own products that allowed breath under water and sight under water, the product was basically fabricated gilly weed with some flavours added.
They saw the girls go behind some overly large rocks, losing them from sight.
Fred surfaced from the water and paddled up to the set of rocks, cautiously he climbed onto them and peeked over the rim. He saw them, they were giggling.
Fred turned around and beckoned George.
"Did you see Ron's face before he fell into the water? Awwww, excellent." Ginny laughed, shaking her head.
Fred and George exchanged confused glances.
"Oh, do you think I acted a bit…cheeky?" Hermione asked, blushing furiously.
"Hell yeah! Ron didn't know what hit him!" Ginny exclaimed.
"But Ginny, I don't want him to like this person I created out of thin air though. I want him to like me, the real me…"
Fred and George's eyes widened significantly.
"Hermione, he is already in love with you. He just needs a little nudge to realise it." Ginny said, her voice now serious.
"Besides, you know what Bill said? He's just trying to make you jealous with that LovaGal and Noelle." Ginny said reassuringly.
"Bill?" a surprised voice said a bit too loud just above them.
Hermione and Ginny looked up, and were just in time to catch identical faces disappearing.
"Fred, George! Come back." Ginny screeched, leaping from the shallow water and trusting her self forcefully into the deep end to try and catch them. Hermione jumped in after her. Together they chased the twins through the water.
"You cunts!" Ginny screamed while her head was above the water to gasp for some air.
Hermione stopped splashing through the water and screamed to Bill, "Stop them!"
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Bill heard Hermione call out for him so he placed himself in the twins path, who were too busy getting away from the angry girls to hear what they were saying, so they went straight towards him.
They were just about to pass him when he grabbed one arm of each to hold them back. Nonplussed Fred and George looked up to see why they couldn't get forward.
"Bill, you traitor! Ganging up with girls! How could you?" George cried dramatically.
Bill smiled and tightened his grip on their arms.
"Aw, thanks Bill!" Ginny said breathlessly as she caught up with them.
"Yeah." Hermione panted.
"Look! What's going on between you three?" Fred suddenly hissed in an under tone, knowing perfectly well that he would be brutally murdered by nails and high heels if he revealed any of this new information to the others.
"Let's go talk somewhere." Bill whispered, having the slight suspicion of what Fred was talking about.
"Do they need to know more?" Hermione whined.
"Yes!" Fred and George said at once.
"We will talk before dinner, too much people around." Ginny stated, glancing at Charlie, Harry, Ron and Noelle who were glaring at them apprehensively.
"Here." Hermione suddenly said, slipping her silver bracelet that bore the name, "Hermione" of her hand under water and pushed it into Fred's hand.
Fred looked confused and was just about to open his mouth to ask her what she meant with it when Hermione said loudly, "Fred and George Weasley, I'm very hurt by this! That bracelet is very special to me! How dare you take it!"
George played along and said, "We're sorry Hermione we just thought-"
"Well you thought wrong!" Hermione snapped dangerously, grabbing the bracelet away from Fred.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Every one was sitting restlessly around the camp fire, slowly spooning in their onion soup.
Fred and George were shooting furtive looks at Ginny and Hermione who were glaring right back at them.
The talk with them was horrible. Fred and George weren't very receptive to the idea that their little brother had won the heart of one of the smartest, not to mention the prettiest girl that Hogwarts had seen in ages.
And of course, knowing Fred and George, they couldn't help crack a joke.
Hermione felt horribly embarrassed, and although she was trying to match their stares, she felt too ashamed to look directly in one of their eyes.
Mrs. Weasley broke the silence, "I think that we should all go to bed early today. Arthur, Emily, Phillip and I are planning to take you all for a long walk in the morning that will last most of the day. So we want you to be well rested."
They all nodded and continued sipping the soup.
"And Fleur is coming tomorrow so I think that Bill should stay behind by the camp to welcome her." Mr. Weasley informed his eldest son who smiled thankfully.
Silence fell again over the group, and it lasted right up until Molly and Emily (Mrs. Granger) shooed them off to bed. Reluctantly, they retreated away to the tents that were assigned to them.
One tent was for Mr and Mrs. Weasley, the other for Mr. and Mrs. Granger. There was a tent for Ron, Harry, Fred and George, another for Bill and Charlie and the last was for Hermione, Ginny, Noelle and Fleur when she arrived.
Hermione, Noelle and Ginny changed into their pyjamas without talking and crawled into their sleeping sacks before Ginny said quietly, "I'm sure this is going to be a nice holiday."
Hermione detected the sarcasm hidden in her voice. But Noelle, dim-witted that she was, enthusiastically replied, "Yeah I totally agree! And every one is so nice here. Its lovely being with my dear cousin Herms…..and GINNY, my, my, my your family is really…..expanded."
"Yeah, lost of brothers….." Ginny sighed.
"Nice brothers….." Noelle said distantly.
Hermione smirked at Ginny, who only saw shadows of Hermione's face in the dark, but she knew the look Hermione was giving her and nodded with a grin of her own.
