A/N: Thank you for your sweet comments. It reminds me why I love writing.

Hermione and Ron stared blankly at Lavender's unconscious body.

Ron was the first to speak, "First this bitch wants to ruin my life, now she's all over my hallway!"

"Ron, don't be so harsh. Maybe she had her reasons." Hermione couldn't believe she was coming to Lavender's aid.

Ron round on her, "What do you mean by that? Would you even do such a thing?"

"Of course not!" Hermione said defensively, "I just think that we shouldn't judge her." She went to Lavender, "Come on. We can't leave her lying around, people will think we killed her."

Ron reluctantly helped Hermione put Lavender on the sofa.

An hour passes and Lavender still didn't move. What they didn't know was that she was feigning her state to listen on their conversation. She wasn't going to give up so easily.

Ron and Hermione didn't bother to wake her up. Ron was fuming still.

"So," he said, watching Lavender, "how did you get the letter again?"

"Hmm?" Hermione was reading a lone book she found in the back of the armchair she was now sitting on. "Oh. I guess she was drunk when she mailed it. She must've been too loaded to realize that she was writing down my address rather than Pervati's."

"I see." Ron said, still looking at Lavender. "I feel bad for her."

Hermione looked up. Lavender found it hard not to move.

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked quietly.

"She used to be so happy when we were at school. Where did she turn?"

"I guess that she felt a connection with you that has made her believe that she truly loves you." Hermione then noticed something. Lavender had opened her eyes but suddenly closed them. So your faking it, are you?

Hermione walked up to Ron and put her hand on his shoulder. "You are so sweet. To think of what she could have done to you. To me. And still you worry about her?"

Ron blushed, he didn't know if it was because of her close proximity or her words. He just felt hot all of a sudden.

"Well…" Ron started nervously. Hermione stopped him.

"Don't say anything. Do everything." She come closer to his lips and slowly kissed him. Ron wrapped his hands around her waist while she around his neck. She peered at Lavender who was now half up and gawking at them.

Hermione gave a low moan, which Ron returned. They stopped to come up for air. Ron looked at Hermione and said, "I-"

"Don't say anything Ron. Not a word." She breathed.

"Ahem." Lavender was up now. Ron let go of Hermione and walked up to her.

"I see you've come back." It looked like the sudden bliss of kissing Hermione was gone, "I'm not going to ask you why you did what you did or what your were thinking of doing. All I have to say is that you have to forget me because I love someone else." He motioned to Hermione.

Hermione wanted to say something to him but knew that this was between him and Lavender.

"Ron I truly love you." Lavender said, coming closer.

"No you don't. I would put my bet on Seamus. Right?" He asked expecting an answer.

Lavender shifted a little.

"You two broke up, but you could get back together. You see me as the rebound. The one you truly love is Seamus. It's very clear when they two of you are in the room, you know." Ron said, trying to make realize this.

"Really?" Lavender said this as a little girl asking her daddy if he was going to hold his promise of coming early from work.

"Yes, Lavender. Why don't you try to work things out with him and you will be so much happier. Trust me." He said, the sharpness leaving his voice.

"I'll think about it." Lavender seemed like she wasn't really there but in a far-off land.

"Good. Everything will be alright." Ron followed her out the door.

Lavender kept walking, not bothering to say goodbye.

Hermione looked at Ron in awe. He looked back at her while closing the door.

"What?"

"You are amazing!" Hermione threw herself at Ron and began once again to snog him.

There was a faint pop outside of the door. The couple parted and opened the door thinking it was Lavender once again.

But it wasn't. It was a beaming Harry.

"You're back!" Ron said, embracing his friend.

"Yeah. I really needed it." He said while hugging Ron. As they parted they walked into the flat. He hugged Hermione, who knew that Ginny must've decided to go directly to their flat in case Ron was home.

"So, anything new?" At this Hermione and Ron started to laugh. "What's so funny?" Asked a confused Harry.

"You wouldn't believe it if we told you." Hermione said sitting down.

A/N: Was it to corny?
