Chapter Ten

"Ron, where are you going?" Harry said running up to Ron.

"Don't play dumb." Ron said angrily.

"What?"

"I heard from a reliable source that you have been dating Hermione. And just pretending that Seamus and Hermione are dating so that you don't make me feel bad."

"Who told you that?"

"Seamus."

"Seamus?"

"Yeah."

"He's a lying scumbag."

"Oh really? Hey Angelina, who's dating Hermione?"

"Seamus. But Hermione seems pretty tired of him. Why?" Ron closed his eyes.

"Sorry."

"It's alright."

AS the next day came Ron noticed Hermione being a little more irritable around Seamus. This put Ron in a very happy state. He smiled at Seamus and Hermione, he even spoke to them, which was shocking, even on his standards.

"Well Harry I think happiness is here to stay." Ron said smiling.

"Hopefully. You were a real git before."

"Harry, aren't you going to ask why?"

"Why?"

"Seamus and Hermione broke up today."

"No. Really?" Harry said sarcastically.

As the next few weeks passed Hermione turned back to her own self. Hanging around with Ron and Harry and flirting with Ron.

"Listen me and Ginny are going to Hogsmeade together this Saturday. Why don't you and Hermione tag along."

"Are you sure? Okay." Ron smiled and walked off.

"Hey! Uh, this Saturday Harry is going to Hogsmeade with Ginny and I was wondering if you wanted to go…with me?" Ron asked shyly.

"Sure. I'll be there." Hermion laughed.

"Great." Ron said enthusiastically. As Ron left Ginny walked up to Hermione.

"I think you owe me an apology."

"Why?"

"I was right. You do like Ron." Ginny smirked.

"No I—"

"Don't lie."

"Maybe…a little but…."

"I knew it, I knew it!"

"Don't rub it in."

"Listen Hermione, at you're wedding I hope to be the Maid of honor."

"Ginny, it's just a date."

"What? You're going on a date with Ron?"

"You didn't know? I am going with you and Harry as well."

"Then how do you know it's a date?"

"Well, I don't."

"Then I wouldn't count on it." Hermione frowned. "I'm joking. It probably is a date."

"But you don't know."

"I'll be on a date with Harry when we go Saturday."

"Well then it might be a date after all."

"Count on it."

"You told me not too."

"I change my mind." Hermione laughed, and said goodbye.
