Ron and the Total Babe
Here is the next chapter. I hope I didn't take too long. After this one tho, there will be a lot of drama, so stay tuned!
Chapter 2 - Breakfast and Invitations
Harry and Ron arrived at the table to find everyone already seated. They took the only available seats, across from Hermione. Ron looked nervous. Actually, nervous was an understatement, as his face was as red as his hair. He sat down and took deep breaths.
"You just need to calm down Ron. It's not like she knows." whispered Harry.
Avoiding Hermione's gaze, he helped himself to two plates full of food, to avoid conversation.
"Good morning guys!" said Hermione.
"Good morning Hermione." said Harry.
Ron didn't look up. Hermione gave Harry a puzzled look, but Harry just shrugged his shoulders.
"Oh- Ron, can you pass the syrup please?" Hermione asked.
Ron picked up the bottle but spilled it as soon as he saw what she was wearing. Her and Ginny were planning to take a swim, and she was in a bathing suit. A red bathing suit. As the contents spilled all over the table, everyone sighed in annoyance.
"SORRY, sorry, I'll clean it-" started Ron.
He stood up but he quickly sat back down, his eyes going wide.
Harry looked over, and choked on his pumpkin juice. Ron quickly excused himself from the table, and ran back to his room. Everyone gave Harry inquisitive looks. Harry excused himself as well, and walked up to Ron's bedroom. He found Ron on his bed with his head buried in his hands.
"That was the most humiliating thing that has ever happened to me."
Harry didn't have anything to say, so he just sat down next to Ron. What felt like five minutes later, they heard a knocking at the door.
"Can we come in?" asked Hermione, Ginny standing next to her.
"Bloody hell- I-Im not here I went for a walk." said Ron, dashing for his closet
"Come in." said Harry, after a few moments, making sure the closet door was closed.
"Hey Harry!" said Ginny. "We wanted to know if you guys wanted to go swimming with us? Wait where'd Ron go? I could have sworn I heard him in here?"
"Nah, he went for a walk" said Harry, suppressing a smile. "But we'd love to."
"Lovely." said Hermione. Meet us by the lake in ten minutes."
After they left the room, Ron burst from the closet, looking mortified.
"I can't-I can't go swimming with her. Whenever I see her, I just think of…"
"Ron, just try to think of something else. Whenever you look at her, think of….think of your Aunt Muriel."
"Yeah, yeah I'll do that."
As they got ready for the pool, Ron kept constantly reassuring himself that he would be fine.
"Yeah, it was only a dream," he mumbled. Harry also picked up something along the lines of "Aunt Muriel, yeah, Hermione, not a big deal." When they were both ready, Ron looked a lot more confident, and they walked down to the lake.
oooo! Just to clarify, Hermione was wearing a red bathing suit in Ron's dream too. But if you read closely, you would have noticed that. Also, Ron sat down quickly after dropping the syrup, because he was *hard as a rock*. I hope reading this wasn't confusing. Reviews would be greatly appreciated!
