"Who is the one who loves me, 'Mione?" Ron asked as they watched the stars in the sky.
"It's…"
"Ms. Granger!"
Hermione's head shot up from her desk. Everyone in the room stared at her in shock. She could see that even Malfoy and his cronies were surprised.
"Professor Binns, I'm sorry but what are you asking?" Hermione asked politely, trying to regain some of her dignity. The class gasped in shock.
"The great Hermione Granger doesn't know what's going on?" Malfoy asked smugly as he regained himself. Hermione glared at Malfoy as Harry looked ready to hex him.
"We were discussing…" After class, Hermione was awakened once again this time by Harry.
"Hermione, it's time to go." Harry said smugly as she quickly sat up. She gathered up her papers as Harry sniggered.
"Will you stop?" Hermione asked as she gathered her things and cleaned off the spot of drool on her History book.
"I don't know, Hermione. I'm really enjoying this. I mean you've been falling asleep all day. Last time you caught Ron and I doing that you totally gave us the silent treatment after hitting us each with your Hogwarts O' History book."
Harry noted how Hermione's eyes light up at the mention of Ron's name. "So how long have you visited Ron?" Hermione looked up at Harry incredulously.
"I don't know what you're referring too" Hermione said stiffly even though this had been going on for two weeks. Harry grinned.
"Oh I think that you do, Hermione." Harry said casually as she walked with him to lunch. "I mean you've been seeing him for awhile now…"
"When did Ronald tell you?"
"Earlier today" Harry admitted grudgingly as Hermione smirked at him. "He wanted you to visit him again before the Quidditch Match but I told him that you'd be too busy watching me." Hermione laughed through the butterflies that grew in her stomach.
"Well that's right but who says that I'll be watching you" Hermione teased lightly. Harry looked at her shocked. "What?" Hermione asked patiently.
"You seem a lot happier lately, Hermione." Harry said cautiously. Hermione blushed lightly. "I think that you and Ron both are feeling the same way."
"Obviously not" Hermione said as the smile fell from her face as she saw Lavender up ahead. "Or Ron would've dumped Lavender by now besides they see each other everyday." Harry shook his head.
"Actually whenever Lavender comes in, Ron is 'asleep'." Harry informed Hermione, instilling more hope into her heart. "Ron detests her but he doesn't know how to break it off with her because as we all know, he's a git and totally unexperienced." Hermione smiled at that and Harry took her hand. "Don't worry, Hermione, Ron is going to dump that snogging 'scarlet woman' soon. Anyway Mrs. Weasley told me during Christmas that she likes you better than Lavender." This made Hermione smile as Harry hugged her brotherly as they made their way to lunch. Hermione's sensibility was starting to slip more and more at the mention of Ron but Hermione didn't mind it. Not one bit.
