I HOPE YOU DANCE

Chapter 1 – How could you?


"Ronald Weasley! Come down here right now!" Hermione yelled from the bottom of the stairs in the common room,

Ron slammed his door and stormed down the stairs. "And why exactly would I come down Hermione, so you could yell at me again?" Ron yelled back.

"We need to sort out this fight," Hermione said quietly.

"We don't need to sort out anything Hermione; you called me an 'insufferable git' why should we figure this out?" Ron asked.

"Because we need to move on Ron" Hermione answered.

"Well why do we need to move on? Maybe we weren't meant to be friends, maybe were only friends because of Harry." Ron sneered.

"How can you say that?" Hermione asked, picking up her papers off the table, unfortunately, there was a letter address to Viktor at the top, and Ron saw it.

"Writing to your boyfriend Vicky?" Ron sneered.

"He's not my boyfriend, Ron. And you know that." Hermione answered back.

"Sure he's not." Ron said. At that moment Lavender walked up to them.

"Won-Won, could you walk me to class?" She said leeching onto Ron's arm.

He shook her off. "Walk yourself to class." He retorted. He turned back to Hermione, she was standing there starring, tears in her eyes.

"Jealous?" Ron said

"Why would I be jealous of her? Nobody acts that way." Hermione said.

"Hermione, we should be friends anymore, we never should have been, if you weren't in the bathroom when the troll came in, we never would have become friends, argh, I wish you would have died in there" Ron yelled.

"You don't mean that, Ron," Hermione cried. Now there were tears pouring down her face.

"YES I DO YOU INSUFFRABLE KNOW-IT-ALL MUDBLOOD!" Ron yelled. As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he knew he should never have gone there.

Hermione stood there, still. Her face, a ghostly white.

Ron went to reach out to her, tell her he was sorry. But she shook him away.

"Hermione," Ron said quietly.

"I'M SO MAD AT YOU RONALD WEASLEY; I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS EVER IN LOVE WITH YOU!" Hermione yelled, and stormed up the stairs to her room.

Ron just stood there; did she just say she was in love with me? He went to run after her, but the stupid stairs turned to a slide and he fell back down. He turned around to storm up to his room, when he noticed the crowd of people watching, not moving.

"What do you want?" He yelled at them. Quickly they scampered away. Until Harry, Ginny and Ron were left there.

Ron went to say something to the two of them, but Ginny beat him to it.

"How could you Ronald?" She yelled. She was only 5"5, a full7 inches shorter than Ron's 6 feet. But at that moment, it seemed like he was only 5 centimeters tall. "How could you say that to her? She loves you, you prat." Ginny slapped him hard on the face, and stormed by him, running up the stairs to the girls dormitories.

Ron turned to Harry, "Harry-"

"I know you didn't mean it Ron, but really," Harry said.

"I know, do you think she'll ever forgive me?" Ron asked.

"It's Hermione were talking about," Harry replied.

"So it's a no." Ron said quietly. He walked up the stairs to his dormitories and fell on his bed, softly crying himself to sleep.
