I glared across the table at Ron who is a filthy rat who deserves to die alone. He shoves 6 more pancakes in his mouth. How can he eat? The man must be a robot if he's not feeling any guilt for spying on me and Ginny last night. "You all are so quiet! Are you all ok?" Mrs. Weasley calls from the kitchen where she's making more pancakes. "We're fine! Just enjoying breakfast!" I yell back. Ron looks at me and swallows his last pancake, "mum? Are you making more pancakes?" He asks. "As we speak darling!" She responds. "How could you?" I whisper yell not wanting Mrs. Weasely to hear. He looks at me, innocence in his eyes. I could kill him right now. "I was curious alright?" He says. "No. Not alright. You are so- ugh!" I roll my eyes. Mrs. Weasely brings out the pancakes. "Mrs. Weasely I'm going to get ready if that's ok." I say and she smiles. "Of course dear! You're basically family." She exclaims. I smile and get up. I walk up the stairs and change out of my pjs making sure to put the clothes in the laundry basket. I put on my skinny jeans and I grab my favorite red Tshirt that's inside out. I walk outside and try to flip the Tshirt right side out. And of course Ron's standing right by Ginny's room with... Oh crap. Harry. My eyes widen as I scramble to put on my Tshirt but Ron is obviously being a perve and thinking dirty thoughts. "Ron!" I yell. His face turns bright red. "I-umm- I can explain." He mumbles. "Have you EVER heard of PRIVACY?!" I shout. "It's not my fault you walked out in your bra!" He says. "No you're right it's my fault for going to brush my teeth and think I have any respect from anyone!" I say and storm back in the room and I slam the door behind me. I over hear part of Ron and Harry's conversation outside the door. "That was interesting..." Harry says. Oh my gosh I'm doomed to be forever alone. Harry will probably never talk to me again. I slump down on the wall and hold my head in my hands. Then there's a knock on the door. "So help me if its you Ron-" I start but he walks in. "I'm sorry Paige." He says looking down at me. Harry stands outside the door. Obviously encouraging Ron to apologize. "You're right, you deserve respect and privacy." He mumbles. I roll my eyes and then he says it, something that I was actually surprised to hear, "you're like my sister and you're one of my best friends. I don't want you to be angry. I'm really sorry." I'm stunned, I could tell that wasn't apart of Harry and his agreement. He opens up his arms for a hug and I hug him. He's probably as close to a brother as I'm going to get, so I'll try not to make him angry too much. "It's ok." I say and pull back. Harry stands there awkwardly and waves at me. My heart skips a beat. He looks way hotter then he did before the holiday. "Hey Paige." He says smiling and goes in for a hug and I hug him too. "Hi Harry." I say. We pull away and i can tell I'm probably blushing. "Anyways...." Ron continues, "you up for swimming?" He asks. I sigh. I can't say no. That'd be the one thing I'd never say if it involved Harry. "Sure." I say and smile. "I'll meet you guys down there."
