I've adapted to this new writing method where I type up the story, or next two stories (depends on if I've gotten my subject yet) the night before I post them. As of now, it is Tuesday at 4:43pm. This is going up sometime after four o'clock on Wednesday! I don't think I'll be able to update on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and most likely Monday. I'm going away for the weekend. Read on -
Only Prettier
We might think a little differently,
But we got a lot in common you will see,
We're just like you,
Only prettier
Hermione had been Ron's one-and-only for almost three years, now, and she was quite proud of it, she was. She enjoyed when he showed up sopping wet at her door on his way home. She thought it was cute when he wore socks around the house. She sensed it meant he felt safe and comfortable around her. She knew she felt the same about Ron. She especially loved when he'd make excuses about being too tired to walk the stairwell to his flat and would much rather ride the lift in her building. She always let him.
He gave her a key to his flat about a year ago, and she gave him hers. She never found use to her key, seeing as though she could easily apparate to him at any time she felt. She decided she'd string it on a chain and wore the small key around her neck. She got a slew of compliments (and a bit of teasing from Ginny and George) for doing so.
It had been three years since the Final Battle, and three years since Hermione had seen many of her old Hogwarts classmates. One in particular… Lavender Brown. Hermione hadn't intended on reuniting with Lavender at all. She honestly despised her very much. Lavender was just never anyone Hermione would consider any kind of "friend."
"Hermione?" the shrill voice woke Hermione from her focus on the two-for-one deal on pasta.
"Of all places, a muggle market?" Hermione whined to herself.
Lavender pushed through the clump of people by in the line for cheese. She wore the same psychotic grin she'd always had. Hermione knew it was no use hiding.
"Hermione Granger! Is that you?" She yelped once more.
"You found me." Hermione sarcastically smiled. She wanted to leave. Now.
"I'd think so! It's been ages! You look the same." Lavender seemed disappointed to find Hermione the way she'd left her so long ago.
Hermione couldn't really complain. She hadn't changed. She didn't need to either. Ron was hers forever. Take that, Lav!
So, now that I think about it, I just might have Friday's story up. Maybe not…
