Hi everyone! Thanks so much for staying with me. School just began and classes are crazy so my computer access has been limited however I've been jotting notes and forming sentences in the spare time I have, so here we are. I plan to get in writing a few more chapters hopefully by tomorrow then those will be posted shortly! J

Once again Harry potter belongs to JK Rowling and the movies belong to Warner bros. Additional content is mine. Adios! 3

Confusion Ch.3: Facing the Facts

Hermione stood by her fireplace, trunk in hand, ready to floo to the Grimmauld place. The Weasley's had connected her fireplace a bit earlier. This was it. A short while ago her parent's had been called to the office for an emergency. Bradley Bingen, a client, had fallen down some stairs and lost four grown teeth. She paced back and forth and grabbed a handful of floo powder with the free hand. She stood in the fireplace and as she announced the Grimmauld Place, she was engulfed in green flames.

RHRHRHRHRHRHRHRHRHRRHHRHRHRH RHRHRHRHRHRHRHRHRHHRHRHRHRHR HRHRRR

She watched fireplace after fireplace pass by as she was on her way to the Sirius'. Suddenly she lost grip of her own and she saw the burrow living room coming into view. She saw her trunk fly through and hit the ground. She also saw a certain red haired boy sitting on the couch. He jumped a bit when the trunk hit the ground but before Hermione knew it she came rocketing out of the fireplace and was landed on the ground….well almost on the ground. Instead she was near the ground, in the arms of the now kneeling Ron Weasley. He had caught her. Not sure of what to make of the exchange Hermione cleared her throat loudly. This seemed to take him back to reality and he awkwardly shifted out from under her body. He helped her up then went and sat back down on the couch, looking to her expectantly.

Just as quickly as he had sat down he stood up. Now the two were just facing each other, staring into the other's eyes. They both seemed to not want to be the first to speak.

"Ummmm…I don't quite know what to say…" began Hermione solemnly. For the first time in their many years of friendship Ron walked up to Hermione, and wrapped his arms around her. For a while they stayed in this embrace, and then to her amazement and fear, Ron began to cry.

"Mione" he spoke aloud for the first time that day

"Mione, I just don't know what to do. I'm bloody losing my mind. Mum's a wreck and Harry's been avoiding me. For no well reason. Suddenly oh his scar hurts and where does that leave me? They're all so busy on making sure he's alright. They're all so focused on the order. I just….I j-just don't know."Once again they were held in this strong embrace, sending each other waves of strength. However, Ginny decided to walk through the door right at this moment. "Hermione! Oh…sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt this uhhh moment. So I'll just be off to let you guys errr….get to it then. Hermione come find me once you've taken care of business…"

Slowly Hermione looked up, meeting his eyes. She summoned all her courage and some feeling to want to hex Ginny to bits at the moment and spoke to him.

"Ron. You're not alone anymore. I'm here. I'll get you through this. We'll get through this together." Her barely concealed blush staying on her face.

"However, I think I should go greet your sister. Come find me later, okay? I mean it" He nodded a small smile spread across his face. She quickly leaned over and kissed his cheek softly before she departed. She couldn't see his ears turn read as he caressed his cheek and said "bloody hell" with awe.

Okay so I have to end it here for now it's originally only half of he chapter I wrote but my computer is spazzing and not allowing he other half to download. So that should be up tomorrow Thanks! Please r&r it'd mean a lot! Also tomorrow is 9/11 the anniversary of the world trade center attack. Please keep those who suffered losses in your hearts. You are all in my prayers. RIP Ray 3 I'll never forget you or any other brave people that day. Stay patriotic!
