A/N: okay I'm a lot happier with this chapter than the last one I might fix the first one up because I didn't get the effect I wanted to apparently. This is an experiment I just wanted to try writing differently from someone else's point of view. Thanks to Wesker888 and Bonnie Radcliffe. Glad you enjoyed it but I know it could be better so thanks for the criticism Imperial Princess. And last but not least the Ginny/Gillian thing was on purpose, the idea is that the narrator doesn't know much about Ron's sister and they got the name mixed up. Really I'm one of the biggest fans and no matter what I might say in this story I LOVE Harry Potter and his two best friends!

The Row Hangover.
Today should be a very interesting one concerning the affairs of the 'Meant-to-be-together-but-refuse-to-admit-it' couple a.k.a Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger and their unknown audience.
Whenever a pair of friends has a fight, the next day they have what I like to call 'the row hangover'. Some snap at each other for the whole day. Others pretend that nothing happened at all and they go about life pretending everything's normal (this particular hangover has been observed to linger around the masculine and emotionless males). Then there are those who immediately break out crying and collapse in each other's arms barely managing to say their apologies (usually the emotional females in their senior years at school).
But there is no way that Weasley and Granger's hangovers would be anything like these. They don't deny that they had a fight, they don't want to start another fight by continually throwing insults at each other and they definitely don't forgive each other so quickly. No they'd rather do the normal thing – the cold shoulder.
Hopefully this should bring a couple of pleasant days of peace where the pair refuses to talk to each other. Or it could swing the opposite way and the days tension could finally snap after dinner and they could blow at each other again. But let me assure you that never will they be considering the feelings of increased boredom brewing in their fellow Gryffindors.
We're down at breakfast. I'm sitting a fair way from the couple but I can see what's been happening. Potter is sitting between the pair of them looking very annoyed but trying to ignore the stony silence between his two friends. I feel really sorry for Potter actually, he's had to put up with a lot. I wonder what he thinks about his two best friends. Maybe we could organise for him to get them together. I'll think about it. Well, nothing much is happening so I'll update you later if there are any further developments. Peace out.
Well folks, my hopeful predictions of a pleasant evening tonight have 'blown up in my face', as my dear friend likes to call it. My more gloomy second prediction however, has come quite true.
Granger was indeed giving Weasley the cold shoulder, and vice versa, but unfortunately, it seemed too difficult for her. I heard the last straw was when Weasley handed Granger a pile of dragon dung instead of essence of newt for a potion ingredient. But that specific source of gossip is rather unreliable (you wouldn't really expect a nosy second year Ravenclaw to know would you?).
Anyway Granger is ranting on about how Weasley hasn't seemed to forget that night when she went to the Yule Ball with the famous Quidditch player instead of him. They might constantly bite each other's heads off about mild problems but - ah, this is the heart and soul of their arguments - this could be the night! Excuse me for a few minutes I need to dash over to Dean Thomas and give him some money. Not to worry I'll tell you if it has gone anywhere.
A/N: So what did you think? Like it or hate it? I haven't written like this before remember so go easy. There's one more chapter after this so look out for it its called 'The sneeze which ruined it all' yes it is a good name thank you lol and then I'm stuck I'll need help for ideas. Sorry it was pretty short but the next one should come soon so don't worry!
