Hermione's P.O.V.
Chapter 11: The most memorable date in the world
I woke up from the dream again but this time I was excited. I have another date with Ron! Yay! I quickly got up and raced around getting ready for the day, I have classes then the date! When I was all ready I looked at the clock. 6:00 AM. Ok,
Record screeches,
Wait,
6:00 AM! That's a whole hour away from breakfast! Oh well, I can at least wait in the Common room…
Normal P.O.V.
"Hey Ron, I didn't know you'd be down here this early"
"Yeah, me two, I guess I really looking forward to today"
"Me too,"
"So, what do you want to do?"
"I have no idea,"
"Um, we could play wizards chess"
"What the heck, sure"
"Ok, I currently have lost my set so I'm sure Dean won't mind us borrowing it I mean he never uses it anyway."
"Okay"
Ron went upstairs and came back down with the set.
"Here we are!" When they took it out of the box they were shocked
"I can see why he doesn't use it." Said Hermione picking up a piece that well, my not even be a piece.
"What are these things anyway?"
"Looks like bewitched… LEGO'S?"
"Let go's"
"No, LEEGGOOS" said Hermione pronouncing it "It is a muggle building toys to make models of stuff, I guess he lost his pieces and replaced them with bewitched Lego's. Lets see this looks tall so It probably is a king, this one is shorter but taller than the others so this must be the queen, these must be pawns, um Ron what color do you want to be? Red, or Blue?"
"You first,"
"Ok, Blue"
"I guess I'm red," They set up the board,
"What color goes first? Usually it's white, but we don't have white"
"Hmm, blue is the lighter color so how about blue goes first."
"Okey dokey Queens Knight, Rook 3 (I think that's right, I'm not using a real chess board so bear with me!)"
"Queens Bishops Pawn bishop 4" And if I wrote the rest of the game it would take forever and I'd have to play the game against myself to see who won, so I'm guessing.
"Checkmate!" said Hermione proudly
"I don't believe it! Someone's beaten me!" said Ron grabbing his hair for no reason
"Is there a problem?"
"No, just shocking, I haven't been beaten in 12 years!"
"Whoa that's a long time, have you ever entered chess competitions?"
"No, I wanted to though, since I was unbeatable"
"Just because I beat you once doesn't mean I'll do it again, I'm sure you'll beat those unbeatable chess players wannabe's"
"You know I should do that!"
"Yeah, you should"
"Hey guys!" said Ginny coming down, "How long have you been down?"
"About an hour playing wizards chess." Said Ron
"And I won" said Hermione
"Did he help you?"
"Nope I won fair and square"
"Wow for the first time in history in 12 years the unbeatable Ronald Weasley has been beaten in Wizards Chess."
"Quit rubbing it in!"
"Never,"
"Come on guys lets pick up Harry" said Hermione before Ron and Ginny had a fight
"Ok," they said in unison. They marched to the hospital wing to find Madam Pomfrey waiting for them .
"Hello kids, Mr. Potter is ready," Harry just walked out of the bathroom, good as new.
"Harry!" yelled Ginny "Ron got beaten in wizards Chess!"
"You're kidding me!"
"Ginny Weasley I said STOP RUBBING IT IN!"
"Who beat him?"
"Hermione,"
"GINNY!"
"Lets go down to breakfast, " said Harry,
The four of them went down to breakfast and Hermione and Ginny had a girl talk,
"Ginny, I want Hogwarts to have a chess competition,"
"Why?"
"Ron has always wanted to enter one"
"Oh, we can talk to McGonagall about that"
"Doesn't she use Dumbledore's old office?"
"Yeah,"
"Remember the password?"
"No,
"We can guess it should still be some kind of candy"
"Yeah, lets go after breakfast,"
"Sure, Ginny I wonder why it hasn't snowed yet, it 's almost Christmas too"
"Speaking of which do have Christmas list? We are going to Hogsmeade one last time before Christmas "
"It's tomorrow isn't it?"
"Yea,"
"Then it'll be Christmas eve then Christmas!"
"Lets go see McGonagall,"
They approached the Gargoyle
"Umm, Lemon Drops?"
" Nerds?"
"Ants in your Pants?"
"Butterfinger?" Malfoy bumped into Ginny
"Watch it you airhead!" The gargoyle moved
"What did I say?" asked Ginny
"Airhead is a muggle candy." Said Hermione
"Oh," They climbed on the steps and went up to the office. They knocked on the door, it opened,
"Professor?" asked Hermione
"Yes, Miss Granger?"
"I was wondering if we could have a wizards chess competition?"
"Not a bad idea, how's Christmas Eve?"
"Great, Thanks Professor!" So they left and went to classes' blah, blah, blah. Soon sign up sheets for the contest appeared on the bulletin boards of Hogwarts.
"Hermione! Hogwarts is having a chess competition!" Said Ron being ecstatic
"Go ahead and enter!"
"You bet I will."
"Come on lets go to potions" said Hermione after Ron put his name on the sign up sheet.
Potions:
"Five points from Gryffindor for no reason whats so ever it just makes me feel good." Said Snape
Suddenly Hermione felt breakfast coming up. She barfed in a caldron- blue barf.
"Ten points from Gryffindor for vomiting in a caldron!" yelled Snape, then he sees that the vomit is blue of all colors, "I suggest you go to the hospital wing Miss Granger." Hermione nodded,
"I'm going to take a sample of this with me so Madam Pomfrey can test it." Said Hermione putting some of her vomit into a vile and left for the hospital wing.
"Class today we're going to make Veritaserum- get to work" continued Snape
Hermione got to the hospital wing.
"Madam Pomfrey?"
"Madam Pomfrey?"
"MADAM POMFREY!"
"Good heavens what is it?"
"Well, you see, I vomited in Potions, and it was blue." Said Hermione handing the vile to Madam Pomfrey
"Hmm, I'll have to test this later, have you eaten anything weird like a potion or poison of some kind? And are you pregnant?"
"Well, no, and no but I did eat a blue raspberry turnover this morning, I thought it was stale though. And I am certainly NOT pregnant because I'm not married you know and plus I've only had a boyfriend for a week or so!"
"I see, well, let me check your temperature. Hmm normal Hmm, you seem fine, it may just be food poisoning Have you been nauseas or dizzy lately?"
"Well, a little not much, I've had many headaches."
"Hmm, well I'm clueless, the nausea and dizziness and headaches could be allergies, and the vomit food poisoning, I think your allergic to blue raspberry's and there was something weird in them. I have had some other cases with food poisoning from those turnovers but I think you may have allergies I could be wrong though. I'm going to give you this potion, which will hopefully help you feel better. If anything gets worse let me know. You may go now."
"Thank you," Hermione left and ran into Ron in the hall way
"Hey,"
"How did it go?"
"She thinks it may be allergies and food poisoning but she's really not sure. She gave me a potion which will probably make me feel better."
"Are you sure you want to go tonight? I mean do you feel fine?"
"I'm positive, I'll meet you there at six like promised. I need to get ready see you later."
"Yeah see you"
Hermione put on those nice jeans that Ginny forced Hermione to wear, and a v- neck blue sweater. She wore a light denim jacket with light make up. She met with Ron and he made her close her eyes.
"Ok, step over this and put your hands here."
"Ron, is this a broom?"
"You ready?" asked Ron behind her with arms around her gripping the object
"Ron answer the question is this a broom." Then she couldn't feel the ground
"Ron! This is a broom it's got to be! Unless it's a port key but, but!"
"You can open your eyes now" Hermione did and she gasped, at first she thought she would be scared, but she was over looking on of the most beautiful sights she has ever seen. She was overlooking a beautiful sunset over the forest, the fear left her, and she was in Ron's arms technically, because had to steer the broom.
"I've never seen anything like this in my entire life." Said Hermione awestruck
"I know it's one of the best views. " He flew them farther away to a nice little spot under an oak with a perfect view of the sunset and the soon to be appearing stars. With a dinner picnic basket awaits them.
"You did this?"
"Yes, with no help at all. Kind of a way to show how I like you and thanks for all you taught me. I'm starting to get more O's now."
"Yeah, " they settled down on the blanket lying on the grass, with another blanket for when the weather gets cooler. The meal consisted of chicken legs, mashed potatoes, rice, pudding, and lemonade in cute plastic wine glasses, it was very delicious. It was pretty silent, but it was because they were admiring the beauty of the night sky coming upon them. It was also special because Harry and Ginny weren't spying on them for they didn't know about the date.
"It 's beautiful,"
"Yeah,"
"I've never seen it like this before."
"Me neither, this is much more breathtaking"
"I got lots of shopping to do, for the Hogsmeade trip tomorrow."
"Me too. Hey are you entering the wizards chess competition?"
"No, I want to watch you beat the world and so I won't beat you again so you don't get humiliated, plus I not a big chess player."
"Ok, if that's what you want."
"It is,"
"SO what are you planning on getting for everyone, but don't tell me about mine I want a surprise."
"Well, I'm getting Ginny a book on 1,001 ways to attract a guy,-"
"Hey! She's my sister you know!"
"The thing is she'll probably get that same book for me, continuing on, I'm going to get Dean a book on Wizards chess, I figured you would get him a new set."
"Your darn right, no more Lego's for him."
"And I'm going to get Lavender and Parvati Hair and makeup books, Harry, I'm going to get him a Auror training book, and a new book about famous Quiddich players which he is in it too being the youngest Quiddich player ever."
"I'm getting Harry one of those weird things for people to hide in to dress. That poor soul still dresses under the sheets!"
"Really? I thought he finally got over being shy over that!"
"Nope, the same old Harry"
They enjoyed the rest of the evening looking at the stars. Then an alarm rang to let them know curfew is coming soon
"I guess we better be heading back to Hogwarts."
"Yeah," Ron said a spell and the picnic disappeared. They mounted the broom and took off. Hermione was so much relaxed, for now she could look down without a worry.
Ron walked Hermione back to the common room.
"Thanks, Ron, so much now I'm not afraid of heights anymore." They kissed, Ron licked Hermione's lips asking for entry. Hermione granted it. They played tongue tennis for awhile but the alarm went off again saying that you had five minutes to get to your beds. They broke apart.
"I'll see you later Ron,"
"Ok, bye" They went into their dorms. Hermione saw Ginny still awake.
"Hermione Jane Granger where were you? I've been looking every where and you return just in the nick of time of curfew!"
"Well, MOTHER I went on another date with Ron."
"Another date? With out telling ME of all people? Does Harry know? What happened? Are you two over?"
"What are you so worried about? Ron is not that much of a klutz as you think he is. And Harry, doesn't know until probably now"
"well, tell me all about it."
"Ok, well, we met up in the Quiddich field, and he made me close my eyes, I knew he was helping me onto a broom, I asked, but he just said stuff like 'Are you ready?' and well I was on a broom we took off, then he told me to open my eyes. I did and I thought I'd be terrified, but the fear just left me. I saw the most beautiful sight of my life. The sun setting over the forbidden forest. It was beautiful. Ginny he took away my fear of heights! That's one of the best things any one can give me right now. We landed under an oak where a picnic awaited us. That was good too. We saw the stars and then an alarm rang telling us curfew was coming. We got up mounted the broom again and flew back to Hogwarts. In the common room we kissed again only this time it was French! But the alarm rang again so we had to go. And that was it."
"That was amazing. Are you sure he didn't have any help?"
"Nope he did it all by himself."
"I'm envious, why doesn't Harry take me out on a date like that? He never French kissed me until our 7th date!"
"Well, Harry is a shy type of guy we better get to bed. We got Christmas shopping to do tomorrow!"
"Yeah, night Mione!"
"Night Gin!"
In Harry and Ron's Room:
"Ronald Whatever you middle name is(I think it's Arthur but I'm not sure) Weasley! Where have you been?"
"Well, DAD I went out on a date with Hermione."
"Wh- wha- WHAT? Without telling me?"
"Yes, "
"Why? Did she end it with you?"
"Hell no! We French kissed in the common room when we were saying good bye!"
"Oh,"
"Anyway, I helped her get rid of her fear of heights"
"What did you do?"
"I had her close her eyes, put her on my broom and I flew us up had her open her eyes and she didn't scream, we saw the best sight ever! The we landed and had a picnic dinner, which went well, we flew home kissed. And now I'm here telling ya, I'm going to bed while you think this over because I have shopping to do tomorrow and I'm not going to miss it. Night Harry"
"N-n- night Ron"
