"What is going on?" I yelled interrupting Harry and Ron arguing. Hermione and Avery were sitting on the couch looking scared. Avery looked like she had just been crying.

No body replied at first but the boys had stopped yelling at one another.

"Is somebody going to tell me?" I stood between them all now.

"Ask your brother. I'm sure he'll have no problem talking bad about me further." Ron scoffed and tried walking off but Harry stopped him.

"I wasn't talking about you Ron. And you aren't leaving until we figure this out." Harry told him.

"Since nobody else is going to tell her, I will." Hermione got up. "Ronald was angry at the two of you. Apparently he has been for a while."

"You make me sound like I'm the bad guy Hermione!" Ron yelled.

"You kind of are." Avery got up as well defending her friend.

"Harry caught him talking about you... and Draco so he-" Hermione tried continuing.

"What does Draco have to do with this?" I stopped her.

"You're in love with the enemy! Do you realize the problem here?" Ron asked me.

"Leave her alone Ron." Harry came up behind me and held me protectively.

"Can I finish my story?" Hermione crossed her arms angrily.

"Sorry." Harry apologized.

"Sorry Hermione." Ron offered her a small smile.

"Harry started creating a scene and Avery found them and made them go to the common room where I came in. This has been going on ever since and now you're here." Hermione finished.

"Ok so tell me more about the argument then." I turned to Harry.

If what they were saying is true, I don't want to talk to Ron. I have no interest in it.

"I caught Ron talking to Seamus about how you and Draco were bound to fail and how he's probably just using you so I stepped in. I started yelling at him for saying those things about my sister but he didn't apologize. He kept talking. Didn't you Ron." Harry antagonized him further.

"Harry you're not helping!" Avery said what I was thinking.

If this is how things were going to go, I was never getting to sleep.

================================

For the next twenty minutes, the five of us stood in the middle of the common room yelling at one another.

"Can you lot shut up?" Seamus poked his head around the corner.

"Fuck off." Avery rolled her eyes at him. We were all super grumpy at this point and we were all still in our formal attire.

"No you have all been screaming for almost an hour. I'm pretty sure the entire house of Gryffindor can hear this." Seamus snapped back.

"Sorry Seamus." I apologized tiredly in hope that he would just leave us alone.

"Go to sleep will you? You guys look exhausted." He noticed.

"Thanks." Harry smiled sarcastically.

"And if it makes anything better, Ron didn't really mean anything he said. He's just been super stressed lately and when he saw Natalie and Draco, he picked on them. Night guys." Seamus walked back up the stairs and went to sleep.

"Thanks Seamus." Ron called after him.

"This true?" Harry asked. Ron nodded sheepishly back. "Why didn't you say that?"
