Chapter 4
"Ron" Hermione asked quietly. Then she yelped as Ron lifted her off the floor and spun her around in a circle.
"Hermione. Oh Herm I missed you"
"I missed you too Ron!" Hermione pulled back from the hug to get a good look at him. He still had the same red hair, and freckles all over his face.
"You look great Ron" she smiled up at him, but was surprised when she saw him looking her over.
"And you look." he trailed off as he looked at her again. "Hot!" he gave off a low whistle and she blushed while laughing a bit.
"How have you been? And why did you stop writing to me? And calling me?" He said crossing his arms looking at her with narrowed eyes.
"Oh, I wouldn't be one to talk Ronald" she poked him hard in the chest and then raised her right eyebrow at him.
Ron laughed and then pulled her into a hug again, "God how I missed you. Even though you always bossed me around."
She shook her head amused at him. "Well Weasley I, have to go to the washroom, go to the table in the corner over there. You'll find Lavender and Parvati, I'll be there in a minute."
"Yes ma'am!" he turned around and walked over to the table, while Hermione made her way to the rest room.

"So my idea is, people say diamonds are forever right?" Harry looked at the two girls in front of him sneering and his boss who looked interested.
"Well we say diamonds are for everyone." Harry finished and saw a satisfied look on his boss's face, so he turned to the girls smugly.
"I like it!" Warren said.
Hannah gave an exasperated sigh, "We don't" she spoke for her and Luna.
"If diamonds were for everyone then they would lose their status. And status is which causes everyone to buy them in the first place. You would know that if you understood women, which you don't"
Harry gave off a laugh of his own. 'Argh!' he thought turning his hands into fists under the table. He always got frustrated with Hannah, but he had to be careful in public that he does not break anything. Although it would not be that odd because he was in the wizarding world.
"Don't worry Harry, no men does"
"But women fall in love with diamonds. If a guy has a diamond she'll be after him in a second."
"I am not talking about a women in lust Harry" Hannah replied to his statement pointedly. "A women in lust wants chocolate. A women in love wants diamonds."
"I am talking about love. I mean head-over-heels lets grow old together love! I mean I love women" Harry said spreading his arms.
"So you're saying you could make a women fall in love with you? Or with diamonds Harry?" Luna asked.
Harry looked at her smugly, and then smirked. "Both"
Hannah laughed, "I would love to see you prove that Harry."
"All right. I will. I'll choose a women, and I'll make her fall in love with me, and if I do, this project is mine."
Harry turned to Warren to look for his approval.
"All right Harry, if you bring this girl to our party that Mr. and Mrs.Dealour are holding, and she's in love with you by then. Than this project is yours."
While Harry and Warren were talking, Hannah caught a glimpse of Hermione Granger coming out of the restroom. 'How to lose a guys in ten days huh?' Hannah thought then smiled evilly.
"All right Harry, how about we choose a girl, right now, in this restaurant"
"All right, who's the lucky chick?"
"How about the blonde babe in the corner?" Luna suggested.
Harry looked over and there was a lady with blonde hair pulled in a ponytail, she was really heavy and she was gulping down a beer.
"Be nice ladies."
"Okay what about that brunette over there?" Luna point to someone sitting at a table close to theirs.
Harry turned to look, and their was a really skinny girl with greasy looking hair.
Hannah took this as her chance to point out the winner. "No, her" she pointed to Hermione Granger.
Harry turned to look and his jaw dropped.

"So you three are living together?" Ron asked Hermione, Parvati and Lavender.
"Yep" they all replied with a smile.
"Ron are you here by yourself?" Hermione questioned.
"Nope I'm here with, Oliver, Dean, Draco and Justin" he paused, "and Harry"
Hermione felt her stomach lurch and the mention of her other best friends name.
"Harry's here?" Hermione couldn't contain her excitement and pulled Ron up.
"Yeah he's here, come on" he grabbed Hermione's hand and lead her towards his table.
Hermione was feeling nervous. She was going to see all her old classmates. 'Do I look all right?' she thought nervously. 'Did Ron say Draco?' Hermione shook her head. She didn't care. She was a little preoccupied trying to figure out why she was feeling nervous to see Harry, she shook off the thought when they arrived at the table.
Harry looked up and saw Ron and holding on to Ron's hand was Hermione. His eyes lit up. 'It really was Hermione. My Hermione. My best friend Hermione. and I'm supposed to make her fall in love with me' Harry thought the last part with uneasiness as he got up and practically tackled Hermione to the floor.
Hermione felt so safe and warm as she threw her arms around Harry's neck and breathed in the sent of him. Oh she would never get enough of hugging Harry.
Harry felt like he was finally home. Holding Hermione was home to him. Suddenly the uneasiness of making Hermione fall in love with him turned into a very excited and lovely feeling.
Lavender and Parvati were greeting everyone, and all their old classmates.
"Hey Pav, you think Hermione found one?" Lavender pointed to where Harry and Hermione were still hugging.
"Who? Harry?" Parvati replied bewildered.
"Well yeah, I mean their best friends, so if Hermione drives him away secretly, I mean Harry won't get mad at her. He would probably just realize that they are best friends and that it won't work out between them, that'll be the excuse."
"Yeah but won't Harry be the least bit curious why Hermione would act the way she is going to?"
"They haven't seen each other in seven years Pav. People change."
Parvati nodded agreeing and then looked back at Harry and Hermione. She shook her head back and forth, "Dram, drama, drama"
