Chapter 5

The next morning, Hermione woke up in the girls chamber, not quite sure exactly how she got there. What a wonderful night... Fred was very... romantic. He must have practiced those moves! It was just pure happiness... Hermione thought to herself. "Ginny?" Hermione whispered as she nudged Ginny. "Mmf... w-what, H-H-H-Hermione?" Ginny sleepily replied.

"Did anyone notice I was gone?"

"N-no, I don't think so. What were you doing? George said that you were with Fred, then laughed about the big pile of toad droppigns that had fallen on Neville."

"I was... doing.... something... fun with Fred."

"Huh?"

"Ginny... he's your brother. You may not want to know what we did."

"C'mon, Hermione, tell me!!"

"No."

"PLEASE!"

"You asked for it... alright, we did something that... involved taking our clothes off."

"Uh... OH! OH MY GOD!! EWW, HERMIONE!! EWW!! HE IS MY BROTHER! I WISH YOU HADN'T SAID THAT! EWW!"

"Told you."

"Ha... have fun?" Ginny snickered.

"Well, ya," Hermione replied, "C'mon, lets get dressed."

"Mpmh. K." Ginny sleeplily muttered.

"What happened between you and Justin?" Hermione inquired. Ginnys face went pale. She started sweating and rambling about something that she had for breakfast, before Hermione slapped her and asked her what the heck was wrong with her.

"N-N-Nothing, Hermione. Nothing" Ginny whispered.

"Ginny, your scaring me!" Hermione nearly screamed.

"Come on, let's get changed..." Ginny sighed.

"O... ... Ok." Hermione said, still staring at her with worry.

Hermione and Ginny got dressed in casual clothes, as school was cancelled today because of a quidditch game. Hermoine was in a red and blue polo t-shirt, with a pale blue miniskirt and black sneakers. Ginny wore a V-neck ruby sweater, and low rise jeans. Hermione and Ginny went down to breakfast, but neither of them could eat anything. After breakfast, Hermione decided to go outside and watch the quidditch game. Ginny had to go for a detention with Snape, so Hermione walked over there alone. Before she took ten steps outside, however, Justin stopped her.

"Where's Ginny?!" He demanded, slightly breathless, and looking very pale.

"At detention with Snape... are you OK?" Hermione answered, slightly worried.

"Yes... I just need to find Ginny." Justin panted, already heading for the door. Hermione decided that it was best not to worry about Ginny know, and that she would force Ginny to tell her what was wrong tonight. When Hermione reached the stadium, she immediately recognized Luna Lovegood famous lion hat, which was roaring, so that meant Gryffindor must have gotten a goal. "Luna!! Save me a seat" Hermione tried ot shout over the roar of the crowd.

"OK, HERMIONE!" Luna shouted back. Hermione sprinted up to the empty seat beside Luna, and contented herself with watching the game.

"Ah, Hermione, before I forget, have you seen my clothes? Someone stole them, and I've been having to borrow clothes from my friend, Padma." Luna stated as Gryffindor just got a goal, which put Gryffindor in the lead with 120 points, and Hufflepuff with 50.

"No, sorry Luna, I'll look out for them, though." Hermione sighed, realizing that this was the fifth time this year Lunas clothes had been stolen. Luna shook her head in a show of thanks, and resumed watching the game. Fred and George had just managed to whip a bludger at the hufflepuff seeker, which stopped him from getting the snitch and gave Harry a chance to grab it. Harry finally go the snitch after a suspenseful five seconds, and the whole Gryffindor side erupted in cheers. Hermione and Luna scrambled down to give Harry congratulations, and when they got down there Fred grabbed Hermione and kissed her passionately. Hermione ran her fingers through his fiery hair, and they continued like this for a few minutes, before Luna coughed quietly behind them.

"Ha, ha, sorry, Luna" Hermione blushed, embarrassed.

"It's fine." Luna said, oddly looking annoyed.

"Come on, Hermione, George and I are throwing a party in the common room. We snuck into the kitchen and got some food." Fred whispered, smiling. Hermione let Fred lead her to the common room, where the party was already in place. She and Fred danced around for a bit, before Fred realized he had a detention and had to go. Hermione milled around a bit, slightly woozy from the firewhisky Fred had convinced her to have, until—

"Ron?" Hermione asked, her jaw almost reaching the floor at what she saw.

"Yes, Hermione?" Ron asked, slightly irritated.

"Who's... THAT?" Hermione gasped.

"I am Fantasia. I arrived here a few months ago. And Ron tells me you are Hermione. Pleased to meet you." Fantasia greeted Hermione, before starting to dance with Ron again. Hermione was slight perplexed that Ron had managed to date the new, popular, beautiful slytherin girl, and she had not even heard about it. Hermione decided that she hadn't been with it the last couple of days, since she was too preoccupied with Fred. Suddenly, Hermione had to go to the girls' room. Realizing how late it was, she decided to sneak to the lavatory and took one of the familiar shortcuts. After walking a bit, she turned a corner and saw Luna snogging someone. Squinting her eyes to better see who it was, she saw---

"FRED?!"
