Chapter 2 – The First Lesson
Ron was having the worst week of his entire life. For starters he wasn't allowed to play Quiditich, but he could watch. He thought that it was a good idea until Harry started looking for a new keeper. They started out bad. Jason Cantwell, a third year Slytherin, was knocked off his broom by the quaffle when he went to save the goals. Ron thought it could only get better from there. How very wrong he was. Crabbe tried, and when he dove for the quaffle he rammed his head into the side of the goal post. To make matters worse, when Goyle tried out, he got on his broom, only to fall straight off. Apparently Goyle's to heavy so his broom snapped in half. By the end of the night Harry had stormed off in frustration. Ron slowly got up and made his way back to the Slytherin 7th year rooms. He changed into his pajamas bottoms and crawled into bed.
"Morning Mr. Weasley." Linkel, the house elf said. "Wake-up Mr., Weasley."
"Argh", Ron groaned.
"Up Mr. Weasley." Linkel said.
"No", Ron answered.
"Yes, now up." Linkel said.
"Saturday, no class." Ron said.
"Tutoring." The house elf replied.
On the way to Professor McGonagall's classroom, Ron couldn't help but curse everything in sight. He hated doing schoolwork. His own schoolwork. Now he was being forced to tutor the same brats he'd tormented since they walked through the doors to Hogwarts.
Ron was sitting in one of the many seats in Professor McGonagall's classroom trying to get the kid to learn charms. Unfortunately Ron wasn't the best at charms. More like the worst.
"So, if you stood ten feet away, and the other person stood twenty feet away, would the same charm reach the place at the same time or different?" Ron asked the kid, Jarod Philordry. "What do you think?" Ron asked Jarod.
"Man, I think this is bullshit." Jarod said as he stood up and left the classroom.
"That makes two of us." Ron muttered quietly.
Finally after what seemed like ages, the tutoring lesson was over. Ron quickly packed his bag, and rushed out of the room. He was hurrying to the dungeons to meet up with his friends, when Hermione Granger walked up to him.
"Hey," Hermione said.
Ron just stared at her.
"Would you like to buy some raffle tickets? They're in supports to but us some new text books." Hermione said
"No." Ron answered shortly.
"So I saw you in there with Jarod. Sometimes it helps to have a different approach.
Ron didn't answer.
"Ok, are you going to visit Colin Creevey?" Hermione asked.
Ron didn't answer.
"I take that as a no, you do know they moved him out of ICU, and into his own room."
"Is this your idea of small talk or something?" Ron interrupted. "Because if it is your social skills need some work. No one forced him to jump."
"It's called peer-pressure." Hermione stated.
"And how did you know that? Read it in one of you precious books?" Ron asked looking at the humongous pile of books Hermione was carrying.
"Please don't pretend that you know me." Hermione said after awhile.
"Oh, but I do know you, we've had all the same classes since first year. Why you're Hermione Granger, you in Gryffindor, which isn't exactly the reject house, but is definitely in self-exile territory. You have exactly one cloak. You like reading in the library, and oh yes, you like tutoring the younger students for fun. So how's that sound?" Ron asked.
"Fairly predictable. Nothing I haven't heard before." Hermione said.
"You don't care what people say about you?" Ron asked bewildered by the thought.
"No." Hermione said sweetly, and turned the corner and disappeared.
Ron stared after her for a few minutes. Then shook his head and carried on towards the dungeons.
Ron slowly made his way to the music room, where the auditions for the music concert where being held. Blaise was with him.
"This is bullshit." Ron said.
"I just can't wait to see you in stage make-up." Blaise said.
"This year's spring musical is about a story of burning passion and blazing Tommy guns. Written by our own Lavender Brown, and music by Hermione Granger. It follows the rise and fall of Viktor Krum, as he tries to become a pro-Quiditich player." Professor Thompson exclaimed. "Ah, Mr. Weasley, better late then never. Please take a seat."
"Sure," Ron muttered and took a seat.
"Well, lets see then, Hermione Granger, will be our Julia, the mysterious bar singer." Professor Thompson said. "And Parvati Patil will be our Anna,"
"Congratulations." Hermione told her friends.
"And Ronald will be our Viktor Krum."
"What!" Ron exclaimed. "No. No, see I didn't plan on acting or anything."
"When did you know Viktor?" Parvati asked.
"Know what?" Ron asked reading from the script.
"That we were in love." Parvati said.
"If this is love, baby, pour me another glass." Ron said amused by the words he'd just read.
"Mr. Weasley, are you trying to be bad?" Professor Thompson asked.
"Um, no. It just comes naturally." Ron answered smartly.
A few people snickered at his remark.
"Alright everybody lets go to the end."
Review Please!
So here are my comments to my fabulous reviewers:
Hermione-Leia Skywalker-Potter: yes I too think that this is my best story yet. And what fun meeting am I supposed to go to? Oh, is it the one with Christopher Poalini?
omg jenny It's your best story yet. It's excatly like AWTR just in HP SO good. I love how you hav Ron, Harry and Draco friends. Up date soon. PS have fun meeting you know who
realfanficts: I hope different in a good way! So I will explain how Harry, Ron and Draco all became friends… they were put in Slytherin! so they soon became friends, I've put them in Slytherin, because as you know, with the movie A Walk to Remember, that Landon and Jamie were in two different social groups, so I decided to put the boys in Slytherin and keep Hermione in Gryffindor. Sorry for the confusion.
O.K., this is certainly different! If possible, could you eventually explain how they became friends in the first place after Harry snubbed his offer of friendship on the Hogwarts Express?
