A/N: Okay nothing much to say here but here is the next chapter. I will be sure to update every day since I write chapters fast so don't be shocked.

Hermione walked in the common room to see Ron sitting on the couch and surprisingly sitting on the couch. She had just finished her meeting with McGonagall which he thought she was just talking about what happened. "Hey Ron. Why are you still up? And doing your homework?" she asked as she took a seat next to him on the couch and giving him a smile.

"Well it is a weekend so I can stay up and homework, to give me something to past the time until you got here so now I can stop," Ron replied as he closed his books and put them away quickly before looking at Hermione. "Plus I wanted to talk with you about what happened. I want to know what Draco did and stuff."

"Ron," Hermione moaned as she shook her head and looked at Ron. "Ron, this isn't really a topic I want to talk about. Draco said horrible, horrible things to me," she said softly as she tried to keep herself calm.

"I know Hermione, but it is better to let everything out. Plus I want to get him back, no one hurts my friend like that," Ron told her as he moved closer to her and gave her a smile. "Please Hermione, just tell me."

Hermione let out a sigh as she looked at Ron and then looking at her lap. "Ron, Draco was calling me things that I am really not. They are the most horrible words a guy can call a girl, muggleborn, muggle, or just a regular witch."

"I understand that part but I want to hear more about the beginning part," Ron said softly, respecting the fact that she probably didn't want to bring those names that Draco called her. Knowing Draco they where probably very bad and nasty.

Hermione let out a small sigh and pulled her legs up onto the couch. "Ron, do you have all night. All the things he said to me where about you and me."

"Go on Hermione, I'll stay up as long as it takes. Plus, it is nice to let this all out and known to someone, someone who understands what it is like to be tormented by Draco," Ron said softly as he gave her a smile. He was telling the truth, he would stay up and listen to her as long as it took to tell him everything.

"Ron, did someone take the real you and switch you with someone else?" Hermione asked. This really wasn't like Ron but she was very happy about this side of Ron but she kind of wondered what happened to the Ron she knew.

"No one Hermione, I am still me. I just want to be a help. I've matured over the summer, we are at war after all," Ron told her with a smile and chuckling a bit. "Now, go on and tell me about what happened, I am here to help you to the best of my ability."

Hermione smiled gently as she made herself comfortable on half the couch but left some room for Ron to relax too. "Well let's see… I was just walking to class when Draco made a comment about how I had courage to walk the halls alone which I haven't really figured out yet. I always walk through the halls alone sometimes so I wasn't very sure what in the world Draco meant by that but he is a bastard so who cares," she said softly and then laughing weakly.

"Wow Hermione, some language there," Ron said as Hermione called Draco a bastard. He had never heard a bad word come out of her mouth once since he had known her. It was kind of odd but very entertaining.

Hermione gave Ron a look before laughing gently. "Is it really that big of a surprise to you? You must have known I had this sort of language locked up somewhere in my," she told him with a smile.

"Yeah but I never though I would get to hear any of it," Ron told her with a small chuckle. "Now continue."

Hermione gave him another look before taking in a deep breath. "Well then he asked me what happened to my 'Weasel boyfriend' aka you. I wasn't really to sure about that either since we aren't even together like that. He asked me if you got fed up with a mudblood like me."

"Hermione, how can that word even come out of your mouth. That is the foulest name that they give muggleborns and I don't like it," Ron protested as he looked at her. It was a wonder to him how she could even get that word out of her mouth at all.

"With a lot of trouble Ron, trust me," Hermione said quietly as she looked at her feet for a moment before moving her eyes back to Ron. "But what about everything else I said? Doesn't it bother you that Ron is talking about us like that when we are just friends and all?"

"Well sure but it isn't so bad just yet," Ron said softly and giving her a soft smile. "Just keep going. I just wanted to know how it was you could call yourself such a name like that."

Hermione shook her head softly before she continued on with what happened. "Well then after I replied to him which doesn't matter much he said you should become my boyfriend then dump me and he would be laughing his head off if it happened. I think that is just horrible though. Breaking up isn't something to laugh about no matter what especially if the two really like each other."

"Hermione, if we ever did get together I would never dump you. Any bloke would deserve to have you as a girlfriend," Ron told her softly with a warm smile, trying to hold back his Weasley smile from her for the time being. "How do you know such much about couples though?"

"Ron I have other friends besides you and Harry. I also have cousins who go through this sort of stuff," Hermione said softly as she blushed lightly. "Do you really think that any bloke would deserve a girl like me?"

"Definitely Hermione, you are pretty and smart, what more could a bloke ask for?" Ron asked as his Weasley smile came out though he tried to keep it back but he just couldn't anymore.

Hermione could feel her knees weakening and she was thankful she was sitting down at the moment or she would have fallen to the floor or fainted. Why did the Weasley boys have to be so cute? Especially Ron and that Weasley smile always worked on her. "I-I really don't know since I'm not one," she tried to say in a calm quiet voice.

"I know, it was a rhetorical question," Ron told her with a small laugh. "Just go on Hermione," he told her softly.

"Well after that he was threatening to put you under a spell and make it happen. I told him I wouldn't let him get away with it and he asked me what I could possibly do to stop him," Hermione said softly and then letting out a deep sigh. "That was the end of it since then he whispered the most horrible word in my ear then and I lost it and hit him," she told him softly and starting to chew on her bottom lip.

Ron smiled lightly and gave her an understanding look. "Thanks for telling me Hermione and for sticking up for me some," he said softly and then stretching out on the couch a bit.

"It was no problem sticking up for you but telling I am not so sure about," Hermione said softly and then getting up from the couch. "We should get to bed. We are Head Boy and Girl after all which means we have to get up early and stay out late so it is best we get as much sleep as we can."

"That's the one thing I hate about being Head Boy, waking up early," Ron groaned and then getting up out of her relaxed position just as he got comfortable. "Good night Hermione."

"Good night Ron," Hermione said softly before she walked up to her room and then heading straight to bed for the night.
