Chapter 10

The common room was empty at this time of night. Everyone must be asleep. Ron headed up to the seventh years boys dorm. He walked in carefully trying not to wake anyone up. However all the boys were still awake.

"You're back late." Harry snapped which made Ron blush with anger.

Ron cleared his throat and stood up tall, trying to regain his confidence.

"Thank you mother." Ron muttered. "I was with Savannah." Ron said, recieving some eye rolls from Harry and Seamus.

"Big suprise there." Harry mumbled and Ron glared at him, while Dean and Seamus exchanged looks.

"I also talked to Hermione." Ron added.

-- This statement had recieved looks of shock as well as Neville's fake snores to recede.

Harry broke the silence, "What did she say?"

"Malfoy. Malfoy and Hermione are now together." Ron said with clenched teeth.

Silence.

"Bloody hell, I lost my chance." Seamus muttered.

"You've got to be kidding me!" Neville yelled and Ron shook his head.

Harry clenched his teeth. "You know what, Ron? Hermione would probably never be with that ferret if it wasn't for you!" He yelled.

Ron thought about Harry's words for a moment and his voice cracked, while trying to find something that Hermione did want to be with Malfoy for. He shook his head and climbed into the bunk.

"I'm through with Hermione anyways." Ron said.

Laughter could be heard throughout the entire boy's dormitory.

"Whatever you say, Ron." Neville said chucking a pillow at Ron's head.

After a while silence was all you could hear throughout the entire 7th year Gryffindor Common Room.
