G- string

Ron wolfed down his sausages and made a contented sigh as Hermione gave him a disdainful look.

"It's not going anywhere you know"

"Wha?" he continued to munch.

"Nothing..."

Hermione's eyes flicked towards Harry, and she followed his eye sight to Ginny Weasley on the next table over. How was Ron not picking up on these things ? He's staring right at her! Harry grinned as Ginny said something , and the people near her laughed. Hermione snorted, and Harry looked back at her, meeting her eyes and turning the darkest shade of red. And Ron was still eating sausages.

"Right, well we've got a free period next, and I've got a test in Muggle Studies next week, so I just need to go and get my book from the classroom, and I can meet you in the common room if you want?" Hermione said to the pair of them.

"Gotta walk that way anyway. I've never even been in the Muggle Studies room. Might be nice to have a nosy" Ron said.

"Ron! I hope I can trust you not to mess with anything. If you break anything I'll.."

"Make me treasurer of spew ? Oh ! Wait ! I'm already bloody it" he smiled, letting her know her was joking.

"I haven't been active for that in ages, maybe I should start it up again. You could be second in charge -"

"Nope, treasurer's fine thanks" he grumbled smiling.

They finished there lunch, and Harry held back to finish his treacle pudding, and to watch Ginny some more, Hermione suspected. They were walking towards the second corridor when Hermione asked.

"So Ginny still goin out with that Michael?"

"Yeah.. ruddy git"

"He seems a nice boy" Hermione said.

"So do most boys until-"

"Until?"

"They get what they want"

"Not all boys are like that" Hermione said, looking him in the eye. She was going to say 'Viktor wasnt' but knew where that would lead...

Ron looked away, and grunted.

"Michael seems to like her" she said.

"Hmm? How do you know?"

"Way he looks at her is all..." she said quietly.

The reached the seconds corridor and found the classroom they were looking for. Little did Hermione know how much Ron was worrying at the present moment. The way he looks at her says it all. What if... No, no way ! There's no way she'd know just from the way I look. Oh my bloody sweet Merlin, does she know? About-gulp- me ?

They walked in the classroom, and Ron looked around taking things in. There was a piano on the one far side, a several computers, lots of books, and an array of muggle assortments. Hermione shut the door and looked at his sternly.

"I'm going to the store cupboard. Dont. Touch. Anything."

Which meant of course, that he would.

"Yes maam" he saluted her grinning. Hermione rolled her eyes and walked to the far side of the classroom.

Ron walked over to the piano, not daring to press down the keys. Hermione probably knew how to play this thing. No use in embarrassing myself. Maybe one day, when I've got enough confidence I'll do something like that.

And then he saw something he liked. He picked it up and swung the strap over his shoulder, and sat the object on his lap. He liked it!

Ron pulled a few of the strings, and heard the sounds. Next time he had a birthday , he was going to ask for one of these. He could even seronade a certain someone with it... maybe.

"Right I've got my book, come on I've got work to- what are you doing" Hermione couldnt stop herself from grinning. She actually found it quite attractive.

He was sitting on the stool near the piano, a muggle guitar leaning on his knee. It was even positioned correctly and everything. He had one foot on the rest and the other on the floor.

"Just havin a go" he said. He plucked a few of the strings and a terrible tune vibrated through the air.

Hermione chuckled "Can you play an instrument Ron?"

"Well, no, I mean, not really. My Uncle Bilius had a piano in his house before he died and I used to know a tiny bit, and I'm sure there's all sorts in my dad's shed, but I dunno, not my thing really".

"Want me to show you?"

Ron looked flabbergasted "You can play?"

"Only a bit. A few chords here and there"

"Sure, go on then".

He pulled the guitar over his head, and motioned for Hermione to put her arms up. She complied, and he placed the strap around her, handing the guitar, becoming quite close as they did so. This did not go unnoticed by either of them, Ron blushing and stepping away, as she sat on the stool.

She used her first three fingers, and struck three cords one after another, and soon created a slow, contentful melody. Ron watched as she concentrated. Its funny, he thought. The guitar sat perfectly in my lap, but looks far too big for Hermione. Was kinda cute...

"This is A and E " she pointed to each of them. "Guitar's aren't really common in the wizarding world, no-one in our class even knew what it was"

"The strap gave it away. Instinct I suppose"

"Well I never played before I started here. My mother was into classical music, and my father never was one for musical instruments. I know I need improvement-"

"Yout great!" he said, beaming. And that one smile took her breath away.

"And what's the last string?" Ron asked.

Hermione blushed, and shook her hair over her eyes.

"Erm... it's the G- String"

"The what!" Ron laughed.

"How did I know that would be your reaction?" she looked back up at him, and stopped playing.

"Just a funny name is all. Seamus seems to have a different definition" he grinned.

"Well Seamus is a foul pig. Girl's don't actually wear those you know!" she huffed,and stopped playing.

"Oh? Granny pants for Hermione?" he said cheekily, taking the guitar from her as she struggled to lift it off. She snorted and lifted her arms, and he placed the instrument back in it's place.

"Absolutely not!" she replied indignantly. "I'm not Bridget Jones, Ronald!"

"I'm not even going to ask who that is" he chuckled, but his heart was beating a million times faster. Where the hell had this conversation taken them to? Unbreached topics newly discovered. Something they had both been curious about for years.

Hermione bit her lip "Have you ever...?" she trailed off suggestively.

Ron looked confused, and then looked like a brick had hit him around the face, and he burst out laughing "What are you suggesting?"

"Not suggesting, just asking? As a teenage, it is okay to be curious about these things"

"God Hermione no! They cut you in half apparantley! What the bloody hell type of question was that? And what sort of things?" he smirked.

"You know, just things..."

"Anything you'd like to ask Hermione? Have you not had 'the chat' yet?" he laughed.

Hermione's nostriles flared "That's not what I meant. Can we just drop this conversation now"

"Alright, bloody hell, you brought it up!"

"No I didn't, and anyway, if I wanted to talk about things of that nature, I certainly wouldn't discuss it with you!"

"Why the bloody hell not? I'm just as good a friend as Harry" Ron raised his voice.

"I do have a mother Ron, and Ginny is quite useful too"

"Oh Bloody hell ! Why did you tell me that!"

"Sorry, she just hears the gossip and passes it on is all"

"So she gets around a bit, and tells everyone the gory details. Lovely!"

"I didn't say that! But you wouldnt want me coming to you asking on advice for boys and such would you?" she raised her voice too.

"Absolutley not!" he shouted.

"And why's that?" she bellowed

"Because I wouldn't give it!"

They stood outside the Fat Lady, breathing heavily and looking each other in the eye. Ron licked his lips, and Hermione's eyes flickered towards them, her cheeks blushing when she looked back up to see his face curiously looking at hers.

"Why?"

"What?"

"Why wouldn't you give it?"

"I-" he took a breath in. "I wouldnt have anything to say. I don't exactly listening to the latest gossip".

"Oh"

"Plus... wouldnt want you to go gallivanting off with some stuck up idiot now would I? I'm not going to give advice on a situation that I don't want to happen. Now, are we going in or what?" he turned away from her, and gave the password. He walked through the portrait hole as quick as he could and he left Hermioned standing there in the corridor on her own.

Wearing the biggest smile of her life.
