Summary: AU where whenever you lose an item, it ends up in your soulmates' possession

You, Hermione, Ron, and Harry trudged your way back up to the castle. The breeze whipped through your hair and your eyes were filled with the vibrant green of the grounds. It was April and the four of you were trying to enjoy your one day off as much as possible. The last weeks had been filled with studying for exams, mountains of homework, and late nights in the common room. You had just finished a fun day at Hogmead and with your money bags considerably lighter the four of you made your way back to Hogwarts for dinner.

Hermione and Ron were taking the lead, bickering about something or other, leaving you and Harry to take up the rear. Not that you were mad. The two of you were deep in conversation about the upcoming Defense Against the Dark Arts exam and you barely even realized that you were entering the Gryffindor common room until Hermione said,

"Come on y/n, I have to talk to you about something." Wishing a quick goodbye to Harry and Ron, you followed Hermione up to your shared dorm. Shutting the door, she turned to you and said,

"I know you fancy Harry."

Your eyes widened at her proclamation, "What... no!! Plus, he's never shown up with anything I've lost, so there's no point" you added, reasonably.

"You haven't lost anything though," Hermione said, a slight mischievous tone. You rolled your eyes, but she was right though. You have very few valuables, so it wasn't like you were just going to go around forgetting about the things you had. You brought your hands up to crack your knuckles when you noticed something.

"Hermione..." you said slowly, "where is my ring?" She looked at you, her smile poorly concealed.

"It might have fallen off in the Three Broomsticks... and I took it," You scrunch your eyes in disbelief. The nerve of this girl.

"And what did you do with it, Hermione," you asked, taking a deep breath in preparation for her response.

"Um..." she was looking everywhere but at you, "I threw it." Your eyes widened and your hand shot up to cover your gaping mouth.

"You... WHAT?" you yelped.

"I threw it!" Your head fell into your hands and you were fighting the urge to start screaming.

"Hermione. If Harry Potter isn't my soulmate then that ring could be ANYWHERE."

"I will pay for it if he doesn't have it!" she quickly spat out.

"Fine... but he won't have it... AND I DON'T LIKE HIM!" you called as you left the room.

You made your way down to the Great Hall for dinner, chatting with Neville about his transfiguration homework. The mixed sound of voices and silverware filled your ears as you neared the entryway. As usual, the many smells of the food-filled your nose as you stepped into the hall, your mouth watering. You and Neville sat down at the Gryffindor table, Harry and Ron already sitting across from you. Harry was deep in conversation with Ron, so you didn't say anything, but Harry broke his eye contact with Ron to catch yours, giving you a bashful smile. It filled your stomach with butterflies and you fought the blush that was creeping up your neck. You scolded yourself for having such a strong reaction to such a small gesture but he was just so adorable.

You felt bad for outright lying to Hermione about your feelings for Harry but you weren't about to expose yourself if she wouldn't admit that she fancied Ron. You had had feelings for the boy for years, but he always had eyes for other girls, Cho Chang for example.
