Chapter 2

Ron sat next to Seamus while Harry and Hermione were in their dorms packing their bags to attend their first classes. Harry had Potions while Hermione History of Magic.

"You know Seamus I think this bet is gonna be too boring!" Ron was saying "ever heard of sabotage? eh?" Seamus looked at ron shocked. "Are you serious? How can you do that with your own best friends?"

"I wasn't planning on doing it. I just gave an idea to you" Ron left after saying this and left Seamus wondering.

He met Harry on his way to the great hall and Hermione joined them after a while.

"Hey Ron! Harry!"

"Hi Hermione" both of them said together.

Harry and Hermione were behaving normally as if nothing happened, as if their was no argument; no bet but deep inside Ron knew that their bet was still on.

"So what happened? You know your bets right?"

"Of course I do"

"What about you Hermione?"

"Same here, I'm gonna go now I have..." she hesitated "work"

Ron and Harry left for their classes too.

...After an entire day...In the evening...

Ron sat next to both his friends quite bored with their bet, one week to go and only one day passed by. 'Sabotage'. His brain told him. Their was no turning back.

"Hey Hermione you know harry won't back down with this bet why don't you do something?"

"What can I do?"

"I don't know try to make him lose the bet"

"I won't cheat" she said and then Ron returned and turned to Harry.

"Hey Harry you know Hermione won't back down with this bet why don't you do something?"

"I am thinking about it" he said and Ron thought his work is done and then refrained from continuing this topic further "ok".

A while later Harry ran up to his dorm got down some books and started speaking to Ron about them.

"Ron I can't seem to which direction to flick my wand while transfiguring the cup into a rat. I think its the upward direction right?"

"No its the..." Hermione spoke but stopped herself in the correct time.

"Yes Hermione what is it?" Harry spoke politely "You can't remain silent I want to hear what you have to say! No its the what?"

"its the fire that is troubling me" she spoke

"What?"

They both this time exchanged looks and this time Hermione turned her face and spoke to Ron in a whisper. "Hey I have an idea I need you to help me."
