Our Complicated Love.

Befriended and..... unfriended?

Hermione walked into the Gryffindor common room, where Harry and Ron were waiting, with a small smile still in her face.

Ron spoke first." Where have you been ? You've been gone for two hours and you didn't even tell us!" 

Any smile that had been on Hermione's face was now gone." I was busy doing what McGonagall asked me to di, and since when do I  have to tell you were I am going?" She thought about what Malfoy had said about Harry and Ron always trying to act like her boss all the time.

" You don't always have to tell us but you could at least tell us when you are going to be long! " Ron said.

" We worry about you, Hermione." Harry said.

Hermione sighed and placed her book bag down. " I know you guys worry and I'm sorry. But I had to do what McGonagall asked but I didn't think it would take that long."

" What were you doing for McGonagall?" Ron asked. This got Hermione nervous. She knew Harry and Ron weren't going to like this.....

" Well I haven't been helping just McGonagall....." She started. Ron nodded." Carry on." he said.

" I have to collect extra work from all the teachers and bring it to Malfoy since we have the teachers and give him a brief over view of the lesson." 

Ron's face turned red. " you have to WHAT!? " He yelled.

" Ron quit down! It's not bad, I've just got to bring him his work!"

" I won't quit down! You shouldn't be spending time with him! " Ron shouted.

Hermione stood up and glared. " You don't get to tell me who I should be spending time with!" She snapped.

The students in the common didn't even pay attention to Hermione and Ron bicker, they were used to it.

" But Hermione, he's a deatheater! " Harry whispered. 

Hermione rolled her eyes. " It's not like I'm best friends with him,. I only have to bring him his homework! " She shouted. 

Ron's eyes narrowed. " Hermione's what'sin your hair?" He asked. " There's fluff in it. "

Hermione blushed. " Well Malfoy accidentaly made the pillow explode and I guess we didn't get all the fluff out." 

Ron's face turned reder. " We? Who is we Hermione?" He asked.

" Would you stop!" Hermione snapped. " I'm done with you thinkong you can always controll me!" She stood up and left the room. She walked into the girls dormitory's and  flopped on to her bed in a huff. Honestly who did Ron think he was ? She eventually drifted off into an uneasy sleep....

The next morning after Hermione dressed and showered she walked down to the Great Hall and sat at the Gryffindor table far away from Ron and Harry. 

" Good morning Hermione. " A female voice said.

Hermione looked up to see Ginny smiling at her. " Oh good morning Ginny. " Hermione replied.

" What's the matter, Hermione?" The slightly younger witch asked.

" your brother seems to think he is the boss of me. " she muttered. " He thinks he gets to know everywhere I go and exactly how long I'm going to be!" Hermione snapped.

Ginny groaned and rolled her eyes. " Trust me Hermione, I know what that feels like! He does it to me all the time! But he does it too people he cares about. And I know he cares about you a  lot ." Ginny revealed.
