They reached the portrait hole,"Kumquat",said Harry. The fat lady rolled her eyes and the portrait opened,"Shouldn't you be at lunch.",she said.
Harry and Ron sat down on the couch,"Well my friend, I didn't think it could happen. I thought I knew it wouldn't. The Maurader's are splitting up yet again and there's nothing we can do.", said Harry.
Ron got up and headed out of the common room, "I'm going to the lavatory."
Harry nodded and stared out the window. Hermione came down the stairs with silent tears running down her face, "Is he gone?", she asked.
Harry shook his head to come out of his trance but Hermione took it as a "no". She started to go back upstairs.
"Wait, Wait, he's gone.", Harry said.
Hermione came back down and sat next to Harry and wiped her eyes with her tissue.
Harry looked at her, "Hermione, I'm sorry that Ron read you're letter.So, erm.... you love Viktor? You know you were leading Ron on alot."
Hermione glared at him, "I never asked Ron to look at my letter. If he let me finish he
would've seen that I was going to say I LOVED Viktor, I don't anymore. He didn't want alot of things that I did for our future. He wants to be and stay being an international Quidditch player which means traveling and I really don't like traveling."
Harry was confused,"Then you don't love anyone?"
Hermione shook her head but before she could continue Ron stormed into the room, "I want explanations right now or I swear Hermione I won't hold back on throwing you out the window! Tell me why you let me kiss you! Tell me why you've been leading me on when you love someone else!"
Hermione got up out of her seat and faced Ron, "It's none of your business who I talk to in my own time!"
Ron ran up and stood about an inch from her face,"Hermione, why don't you tell us anything anymore! You could've told us if you were going to run away with your boyfriend! I bet he was going to throttle us in our sleep so he didn't have any competition!"
Hermione stared him down, "If...I...had...been...allowed...to...finish...my...letter...you...would've...seen...That I love you!!!"
She ran for the girls dorm and slammed the door. As Ron fell back onto the couch in amazement, Harry began to laugh hysterically. The Gryffindors came back from lunch and Christina and Liz came in. Christina sat down in an armchair, "What's so funny? I need a good laugh."
Harry told her about Hermione's letter and Ron and Hermione's arguement.
Christina looked shocked, "Oh my goodness,that's not funny. Poor Hermione."
She ran up the the girl's stairs. Ron tried to talk to Liz but she ignored him after hearing about his and Hermione's fight.
Ron sat next to Harry again, " Everyone's against me."
Harry shrugged his shoulders as he looked over his potions homework, "Well it was your fault. You shouldn't have taken her letter. She would've told you sooner or later."
Ron shrugged and picked up his bag, "We better head to Potions."
Harry nodded and put away his homework and picked up his bag, "Yeah,lets go."
