Wow I'm on a role!

Chapter 4

"Did you know he was coming?" Ron asked. He had been in a surly mood ever since their encounter with Krum, and now he was taking it out on Hermione.

"No, Ron! I can't believe you think I'd do that to you!" Hermione yelled, tears shining in her eyes.

"Well, you guys were all buddy buddy! I wouldn't be surprised," He replied. Hermione shrieked with rage, and stormed up to her and Ginny's room, shouting things all the way up the stairs.

"YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO RUIN EVERYTHING! I SWEAR, I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING WHEN I SAID I'D GO OUT WITH YOU! EMOTIONAL RANGE THE SIZE OF A TEASPOON! TOTALLY, BLOODY IMPOSSIBLE! I SWEAR!" She stormed into the room and slammed the door behind her as hard as she could; it was a show of how much Mrs. Weasley thought of Hermione as a second daughter that all she said was "Not so hard, dear!" and left it at that.

Ginny and Harry were sitting out in the garden when they heard Hermione slam the bedroom door.

"Oh, jeez. Should we talk to them?" Ginny asked, standing up.

"They'll work it out, Gin," Harry said. Ginny's stomach fluttered when Harry said her name. Even though everyone thought she had, she had never quite gotten over her crush on Harry. She hated the fact that she couldn't hang out with him at school just to keep it on the down low. Hermione knew, of course. Well, she sort of knew…

"Harry, c'mon, we really should go take care of them. We have to make this work now that they're together. I can't have Hermione back with Krum! His accent annoys the crap out of me!" Harry laughed, making Ginny's stomach do a back flip.

"Alright, Gee-ninny. I suppose ve can go and knock some sense into those stubborn lovers." Ginny giggled, hitting Harry on the shoulder.

"I'll take Ron, you take Hermione," Harry said, but Ginny shook her head in disagreement.

"No, we'll give them something that they don't expect. You go to Hermione and I'll go to Ron. Then if that doesn't work, we can switch back," Ginny said. Harry nodded, impressed, and they went their separate ways.

Ginny and Harry were so good at this now, after years of practice, that they didn't even need to take a breath before walking into the couple's rooms.

"Hey, Ron," Ginny said softly, entering his room cautiously.

"Ginny? If you're looking for Hermione, she's in her room. God, I don't know what she sees in that jerk Krum. What does he have that I don't?" Ron rambled, and Ginny smiled. He was so in over his head.

"Because he's mature. She sees that Krum is older, and, quite frankly, you still have a temper like a two year old. But trust me, for whatever reason, she likes you, because if she wanted Krum, he'd come back to her in an instant."

"Gee, that makes me feel so much better," Ron replied sarcastically.

"Then suck it up! Show Hermione that you can be mature. Show her that you can trust her. Go and apologize. You did over-react a little…" Ginny said, getting a dirty look from Ron.

"Fine…maybe you're right. But if you aren't, I'm gonna murder you!" Ron stood, and left the room, leaving Ginny there to be proud of her work.

"Mione? Mione, I have to talk to you, please open the door." Ron pleaded, knocking softly on her door.

"Come in." She sounded mad. He opened the door, and found Hermione on her bed with a book. He smiled, but it went away quickly when she glared at him.

"What do you want? Come to see if you can yell some more at me? See if you can frame me for something else?" Hermione grimaced at him. Ron took a deep breath, trying to keep his temper under control.

"Hermione, I'm sorry. I overreacted. I should trust you more, if this relationship is going to work," Ron said calmly, and Hermione looked at him, bewildered.

"Who are you and what have you done with Ron?" She asked, but smiled nonetheless.

"Forgive me?" Ron replied, and Hermione stood from her bed and threw her arms around him, kissing him lightly.

"Yes, I do," She whispered into his neck.

"Hurry, dears! We're going to miss the train!" Mrs. Weasley was yelling up to Hermione and Ginny, who were still upstairs getting dressed.

"I can't fit into my jeans!" Hermione grumbled, and Ginny looked at her sympathetically.

"Well, they are brand new, so maybe they just have to be worn in before they'll fit properly…" Ginny said, trying to make Hermione feel better.

"Ugh! This can't be right…I just bought these the other day!" Hermione was getting really frustrated. Then, suddenly, it was as though a light bulb went on in her head. She slowly turned to Ginny, and opened her mouth, but then seemed to think better of it.

"Um, Gin? Do you think you could just enlarge these a bit?" Hermione held her jeans out to Ginny embarrassedly. Ginny nodded quickly, glad that Hermione wasn't bumming out about it anymore.

"Oigralne!" Ginny said, pointing her wand at the jeans.

"Thanks, Gin."

"No problem, Mione." Ginny replied as Hermione pulled on her jeans, and tossed her pajamas in her trunk before shutting and locking it.

"GIRLS, COME ON!" Mrs. Weasley's yell echoed up the stairs as they pulled their trunks down the stairs.

"Coming, Mum." Ginny said as they cleared the last step.

When Hermione settled down in her seat in a compartment with Harry and Ron, she thought back to the party. It had been about 3 or 4 weeks since the party, and she should've had her period again by now. Oh, Lord. As soon as she got to school, she'd get a pregnancy test. Everything would be okay.

Uh oh! Trouble in paradise…review!
