A/N: Okay I've got the second chapter typed and the third is being written. This chapter should get all of the Ron/Hermione shippers' attention. Oh and by the way, I forgot to add in the first chapter that there will be a twist, but I don't think it will show up until the latter part of the story. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters or anything related to the Harry Potter series. (Although it would be nice if I did.)

Dinner

"Ron, love, it's dinner time!" Mrs. Weasley called from the bottom of the staircase.

Not able to resist food (especially since Ron heard his mum was making potatoes), Ron came out of his room. He was up there for hours pondering why Hermione would do what she did to him. He decided, as hard as it may be, to remove it from his mind while at the dinner table.

Trying to put on a cheery face, Ron came over to the table. To his dismay the only seat left was next to Hermione. Maybe forgetting this will be harder than I thought. Ron sat down and began to pile as much food onto his plate as it would hold. Hermione gave him a skeptical look. Ron pretended not to notice. He could tell Hermione was trying to gain his attention, but he avoided any eye contact and began eating.

Everyone else at the table was happily in light conversation. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were talking about wedding details with Fleur and Bill. Fleur seemed to think the ideas of Mrs. Weasley were absurd and seemed to have much input every time Mrs. Weasley took a breath.

Next to Bill was Fred who, of course, was next to George. They seemed to be in deep conversation and were whispering so softly that someone would barely be able to hear them on extendable ears.

Ginny sat next to Hermione and was trying to talk about Arnold's, her pygmy puff, eating habits. Hermione didn't seem to register what Ginny was saying at all, but instead was stealing glances of Ron.

"Hermione? Hermione! Are you listening? I need your advice!" Ginny said with an annoyed tone.

"Oh sorry! What were you saying?" Hermione replied, coming back to her senses.

Ron didn't care to hear Hermione's views on Arnold's diet and found himself lost in thought about what Hermione said earlier. Maybe I'm jumping to conclusions! But she was so clear! Plus she was talking to Ginny. Why would she tell Ginny something like that if it wasn't true?

"Ron, could you pass the potatoes?" Hermione questioned.

Ron said nothing and shoved the bowl of potatoes next to Hermione's plate.

"Ron, are you alright? You seem a bit tense," Hermione asked looking worried.

Ron found no way to keep from responding without Hermione knowing something was wrong, "No, I'm quite relaxed. Not tense at all." Ron could tell Hermione didn't think he was telling the truth and began to look suspicious. Before she could say anything Mrs. Weasley started conversation with her.

"Hermione, dear, are you excited for NEWTS? I remember when I took them. Those were fun times. It's when I started dating Arthur. He was quite cute then. We would take walks by the lake and stay late in the common room."Mrs. Weasley seemed to become lost in her memories. Mr. Weasley turned bright red. (Hermione could see where Ron got it.)

"Actually, Mrs. Weasley," Hermione started, "I'm quite nervous for NEWTS. I've started studying for them since school ended. I've been reviewing all of our old text books and have been doing some extra reading next to that."

Mrs. Weasley gave Hermione a smile showing how proud she was of her," Ron, did you hear that? Hermione has already started her studying."

Ron muttered a small "yes" and again started stuffing his mouth.

"Well, Ron did you start studying? Its would be a good idea," Hemrione started already knowing that Ron hadn't touched a book since he got off the Hogwarts Express.

"No, I haven't actually. I'm surprised you have time to fit it into your busy schedule." Ron was obviously referring to the fact that Hermione was seeing someone earlier this summer. Of course no one knew what he was talking about.

"Ron I have no idea what you're talking about!" Hermione huffed.

"Oh, I think you do!" Ron said his patience decreasing. "You know exactly what I'm talking about! You saw Krum this summer and had a grand old time! I know you did!"

"Ron, what are you saying?" Hermione bellowed. At this time all of the attention at the table was directed towards Ron and Hermione. "I didn't see Viktor this summer at all! I don't know where you get your information! Sometimes Ron!"

"Oh, so it was McLaggen then, wasn't it? I should have known!"

"Ron! How could you. I did nothing of the sort!" Hermione turned to face Mrs. Weasley who seemed to be pretending nothing was going on. "Thank you Mrs. Weasley, but I think I'll be going to bed now." She gave one last look to Ron and stomped up the stairs. Suddenly a door slammed and everyone was silent. Ron was fuming.

A/N: Okay, another chapter and I thought it was pretty intense. Thanks for the two that reviewed! I really appreciate it! The next chapter is written and needs to be typed. Please review! I love to read constructive criticism and compliments!
