Hermione P.O.V

It's time to shake it off, and really start teaching.

I've had enough of Ron and his silly games.

After returning back to my bedroom, I observed my scrapbook once again, only to stop at the picture of myself at the Yule Ball. I couldn't believe I actually gave myself to Viktor like that.

I sighed and put the book away, deciding that sleep would do me more good than thinking about the past.

After turning out the lights, I closed my eyes, falling into a deep slumber.

"Lumos." I sat up in bed and rubbed my eyes.

"Who is it?" I reached for my wand and saw a figure standing in my room.

"Relax. It's just me. I came to get my stuff, I'm getting my room tonight remember?" Ron said and lowered his wand.

"I'll just be a minute." He mumbled and before I knew it, his stuff was gone.

So was he.

I fell back into bed, my brain fully awake.

How long was this fight going to last?

I shook my head and put my wand back onto my side table.

It'll pass I told myself and fell back asleep.

I decided to skip breakfast in the morning, much to the displeasure of my stomach. Focusing on my lesson plans and my students was the only thing on my mind. I made my way to my classroom and pulled out a health bar. It's something I discovered while at university, they really were great to keep around.

"Hermione?" I looked up from my papers to find him standing at the door, a serious look on his face.

"What is it Ronald? Hurry up, my class starts in a few minutes." I glared at him and watched as he slowly walked in.

"I just wanted to know why you weren't at breakfast." He mumbled.

"I was here, planning my lessons. You know, doing my job." I coldly said and watched ad he rubbed the back of his neck.

"It's not healthy you know. Mum used to always yell at us back at the burrow whenever we missed breakfast." He finished and chuckled.

I remember when she'd flip out over anyone of her kids (or guests), missing a meal. That woman worked terribly hard.

"Yeah. I had a little something to eat though so if you wouldn't mind leaving that would be much appreciated, Mr. Weasley." My glare was as icy as it would get, and I watched him swallow and slowly back out.

"Y-Yeah. Looks like you have a few students here anyway. I'll just be on my way." He walked out the door and I took a deep breath.

"Stressed?" I looked up to see Selina standing above me.

"If only you knew. Now sit down, we have a class to begin." She rolled her eyes and reluctantly took her seat next to Richard. As soon as the class was seated I stood up.

"There will be absolutely no disruptive behavior in class. Especially today, I am simply not tolerating it. I will not hesitate to assign an essay, so I highly suggest all of you watch yourselves and your mouths before deciding to act in an unacceptable manner." I stared down my students as I flew threw my speech. My eyes landed on Selina and Richard, and I watched as they squirmed a little in their seats.

"Now, on with the lesson…" I pulled out my wand and directed the rest of class.

After class I decided to start my paperwork, when I heard a knock on my door.

"Ms. Granger?" I looked up and smiled, finding McGonagall standing there.

"Please come in professor." I stood up and watched as she walked up to me.

"I thought I'd simply inform you that Hogwarts is going to have another dance. No Yule Ball, because this is strictly for Hogwarts students. However, I'd appreciate it if you'd help chaperone." She finished and I mulled over the thought for a minute.

"It is still a ball Ms. Granger. If that's what you were wondering." She answered my mental question.

"Alright. It sounds like a good time." I smiled and watched as she returned it.

"Much appreciated Ms. Granger. I will talk to you later about the details." She finished and walked out.

A ball? Lord knows the Yule Ball turned out in disaster for me. Maybe this is different…yeah. Maybe now that I'm a chaperone instead of a student, I can actually relax and enjoy it. Instead of worrying about Ron and Viktor.

I finished the rest of my classes in the same strict demeanor I took with Selina's class, and it definitely paid off. I have never had better behaved students before this day.

I should probably eat dinner tonight, strictly to get some food in my stomach.

Once I took my seat in the Great Hall, I noticed that Ron wasn't there.

"Looking for me?" I turned around to find him.

"You wish." I snapped and started eating.

"Someone's in a mood. Although I'm the one who has the right to be in the crap mood. Not you." He said once he sat down and I glared at him.

"Don't give me that. I don't need your bloody attitude." He icily quipped and started eating.

"You are the one who slept with Viktor. Why are you in a mood? I didn't do shit." He stared at me.

It suddenly hit me.

He DID do something.

"You slept with her." I said and watched his face turn to confusion.

"I slept with who…?" He asked and my fists clenched.

"Lav Lav." I put on a disgusted face and watched as he remembered.

"How did you find out about that?" He quickly asked, his blue eyes turning to worry.

"Ginny." I simply replied and saw his face turn red.

"Damn sister." He grumbled.

"So there. You slept with that annoying, vile girl. At least Viktor was good looking." I saw his face turn to disbelief.

"I can't bloody believe you. If we weren't at dinner I'd be screaming. It happened in sixth year!" He whispered.

"Exactly Ron! Viktor and I had our 'moment' so to speak in fourth year! Enough of this childish behavior! Alright, you know what? I'm just done. I've had enough of our silly games. This is fucking ridiculous." I finished in a harsh whisper and left the table.

"Hermione wait!" He ran out after me.

"I'm done waiting Ronald! Grow up!" I shouted and stormed to my room, my blood steaming hot.

I'm so sick of this.

I know…it's not super long. But damn did Hermione blow a fuse huh? I love everyone who read this because I love writing it and I love you guys for showing support. I'd appreciate a few more reviews though. Please.

Review!
