'Ron' Hermione exclaimed backing away, he seemed unfazed by Hermione's reaction however and began to talk.
'Good Morning Sleeping Beat�.' For a fleeting moment Hermione thought Ron was going to say Sleeping Beauty but then realising what he was about to say Ron faltered, luckily he managed to quickly compose himself.
'I mean sleepy head' he finished lamely. Hermione decided to pretend she hadn't heard him.
'What time is it?' she asked stifling a yawn.
'Ten' replied Ron once again grinning.
'Your parents wanted me to wake you up before they left for work, so there's someone to make sure me and Harry don't go blowing things up.'
'Ahh, they got the wrong Weasley' replied Hermione stifling yet another yawn.
Ron smiled back, Hermione hopped out of bed and noticed Ron was looking at her with a curious expression on his face.
'Hermione' he said inquisitively 'since when have you been a Chudley Cannons fan?' It was only then that Hermione realised she was wearing a large orange Chudley Cannons t-shirt and nothing else. Hermione embarrassed by her Pyjama's said the first thing that came to her mind.
'Oh' she said laughing 'it reminds me of the wizarding world.'
Well, it wasn't exactly a lie, the t-shirt did remind her of Hogwarts and all the things she left behind every holidays. However she would never tell Ron the truth - she wore it because it reminded her of him.
'Right' said Ron giving her a strange look, Hermione turned away from Ron and headed to her wardrobe but before she could reach it Ron said spitefully 'How would your boyfriend feel if he knew you were wearing a Chudley Cannons t-shirt, what were they all sold out of Bulgarian ones?' Hermione was about to snap at Ron when she stopped herself. She didn't want to get into a fight on Ron's first full day here and so she instead sat down on the bed opposite Ron, much to his surprise.
'Please, Ron don't start' she said pleadingly.
'Viktor and I are just friends like me and Harry, if we were something more I promise you would be the first to know.' Ron was staring at her at first she thought he was deciding whether to believe her but then she realised her mistake, she had said 'friends like me and Harry' not 'friends like me and you.' Hermione silently cursed herself, hopefully Ron hadn't noticed? She looked up and saw something that made her stop thinking about it entirely. Ron was grinning, yes it was unmistakeable his whole face was lite up. Hermione blinked just to be sure she wasn't imagining things and what happened next nearly made her faint. Ron stood up, still grinning, said 'of course I believe you Mione' and walked out of the room whistling, leaving Hermione to speechlessly watch after him.
