The dinner was elaborate, full of meats, vegetables, sauces and there was even a muggle dish called fondue! Ron was too busy stuffing his face to notice that Fred offered Hermione the seat next to him. Fred had a girlfriend but he just loved to piss Ron off.
"Oi Hermione" he whispered, "Pretend I am really funny or something. Can you do that Hermione?"
"I did grow up in a muggle family" she said. Fred didn't get it though. Hermione laughed a little bit. Ron looked up and saw Hermione giggling and Fred smiling at her. He could feel his anger levels almost hit their peak. Fred winked at Ron and that almost sent him over the edge.
"What's wrong Ron?" Mrs. Weasley remarked, noticing her sons red face.
"Nothing mum. Nothing" Ron said glaring at Fred and continuing to stuff his face full of chicken. Hermione was almost sick because of the amount that was in his mouth. It was revolting!
"So, what was that with Fred?" Ron quizzed Hermione.
"Why don't you ask Fred?" she said, walking into the room she was sharing with Ginny. Ron moved on to Fred.
"Fred. What was that with Hermione?" he hissed.
"Dude, take a joke!" Fred hissed back, a smirk playing over his lips, "I can't believe that you don't know" he said.
"Know what?"
"Hermione isn't into you" George said.
"Well, who's she into then?" Ron asked, a little panicked and a little bit jealous.
"We don't know. You should ask your little sister. She seems to spend a lot of time with Hermione" Fred said. That almost sent Ron to the edge. Fred knew that Ron had taken it the wrong way.
"Dude, they aren't together. I just mean that she might know who she is into" he said, a little bit scared. Hermione laughed a little bit to herself and closed the door. They had done exactly what she had asked Fred and George to do.
"Good night Harry" Ginny said.
"Good night Ginny" Harry said. She walked up to him and kissed his cheek before walking into her room. She left Harry standing there wishing he had plucked up the courage to kiss her right there and then. But his conscience got in the way, again. She sat on her bed. Hermione was rolled on her side, facing away from Ginny.
"Just kiss him" Hermione said, "You know you want to". Ginny got off the bed and opened the door.
"Harry" she said, he was walking up the stairs. She walked up to meet his gaze. He went to open his mouth to say something but she kissed him.
Ron mumbled to himself angrily as he walked up the stairs. He looked up and saw Harry and his sister kissing on the stairs in front of him. He coughed impatiently. Ginny and Harry broke apart and walked down the stairs to let Ron go up.
"Have fun. Just don't wake me when you come in. Actually, you might not be able to" Ron said. He was suicidal.
"What do you mean by that?" Harry asked, worried about his friend.
"Just, don't turn the light on when you come in" he said. He planned on using his belt, tied to the ceiling to hang himself. If Harry didn't turn on the light he wouldn't see Ron hanging from the ceiling. But he had to strategically place himself so that he wouldn't freak Harry out as he walked in or something. The wardrobe.
"He sounds suicidal" Ginny said. Not fazed.
"What do you mean?" Harry said.
"Distract him. I have to get rid of his belt and get mum to super lock all the doors. Go" she commanded. Ginny ran all the way down to her mother.
"Mum, he's suicidal again" she said.
"Oh dear me. I will bolt everything. You take all the wands in the house and all the belts as well. We need to talk him out of it" she said, not fazed either. Ron just did this sometimes. When they spoke about it he usually said it was because of Hermione even though it wasn't. This time though, it was.
