A/N: Thank you to all that read the first chapter. I appreciate it. :D!!

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Harry Potter.

Hermione rushed into Ginny's bedroom. Ginny was on her bed, phone in hand. She's on the phone?!

"Hermione is something wrong?" Ginny asked, taking the phone lowering the phone slightly. She appeared sober. She must've taken a hangover potion.

"Yeah, totally." She said, taking a deep breath.

"Are you sure?" She asked, worried.

"Yeah. Of course. Ginny, who are you taking to?" She asked out of curiosity.

"Jena Hopkins. You know the girl that works with me at the Prophet?"

"Oh, right…right." She said, leaving and closing the door behind her. If she's talking to Jena Hopkins, than Harry is probably in his flat. That was close. Hermione thought, leaning against the door her hand on her chest relieved.

She didn't realize that Ginny was just about to open the door. When she did, Hermione fell backwards onto Ginny. Who fell backwards since she didn't expect Hermione to be up against the door.

"You ok, Hermione?" Ginny asked, surprised to see her friend on her.

"Ginny, I didn't know you were going to open the door!" Hermione said, getting up.

"What's going on, why are you acting so weird? Did Ron do something to you on that date or what?"

"Date?! It wasn't a 'date', and nothing's wrong. I just wanted to check up on you, that's all." Hermione said, walking to the living room trying to think of another way to call her little "outing" with Ron.

Ginny followed her; she wasn't going to drop the subject so easily. "So what do you call it exactly?"

"We just went out to have dinner and a cup of coffee afterwards." Hermione said, sitting on the sofa.

"So what happened, anything juicy?" Ginny said, dropping her tone of investigator to a giddy school girl.

"Nothing out of the ordinary. We went to a restaurant, ate dinner," She blushed remembering he bold move, "and decided that a nice cup of coffee would do us some good after dinner. Then he brought be back and that was all." Then she remembered another thing, "Oh yes. Mrs. Weatherbee says 'Hello'"

"Wait what?" Ginny was thrown off by the last comment. "You saw Mrs. Weetherbee out when you were with Ron?"

"No. She heard when Ron was saying goodbye to me and she wanted to see what was going on." She said, blushing again.

"Did she catch doing something, you know…"

"NO! Ginny how could you ask that? I would never do something inappropriate, especially with Ron!"

"That's exactly why you aren't dating Ron officially! Yes you go out with him like tonight, 'as friends', but when are you going to go out as a couple? Ron doesn't know that you're CRAZY about him! If he did, trust me he would be on you like Lavender and every guy that give her their time of day!"

"Ginny, don't say that too!"

"It's true, ever since she broke up with Seamus I've seen her with five different guys and they broke up a month ago." She said, defensively.

"Even so, that gives you no right-"

"I heard she's thinking of going back to Ron." She said, sneakingly.

It was like someone accidentally pushed a glass of water fall off a table and the crash was the only thing you could hear for miles.

In a deadly whisper, Hermione asked, "What did you just say?"

"Yup," she said plainly, "She was trying to figure out if Ron had any prospective girlfriends around."

"Just office gossip." Hermione said, trying to lighten the pang of pain she sudden felt.

"Nope, more than that. Jena was telling me just now. Lavender knows that she and I are friends and well Lavender thought that she can get information because of that." Ginny said, simply.

"You are joking right?"

"Hermione, you have to take the first move. Ron won't do it. That's the only way that you can keep Lavender away and any other girl." Ginny said, she knew that she had struck a nerve.

"We'll just see about that." Hermione said, getting up from the sofa and marching up to her room, slamming the door behind her.

"Oooohhhhh!! This is going to get good!" Ginny got up smiling then she Flooed to Harry and Ron's flat.
