*In the Great Hall.*

Harry: Hello, Hermione!

"Um... Hi?"

Ron: What's wrong?

"Nothing. I just- I thought you weren't talking to me?"

Harry: We're just happy to have you back, that's all!

"What are you talking about? You turned on me! Not the other way round!"

Ron: Hermione, you were dating Malfoy! What did you expect us to do?

"Oh, I don't know. Be happy for me for once in your life?!"

Harry: Ok, I admit that we weren't very nice about it, but you have to realise that it's MALFOY.

"And your point is?"

Ron: He's been nothing but horrible to you since our first year!

"People change, Ronald!"

Harry: Can we just forget this ever happened and go on with our lives?

"Pleasure."

Ron: Good! Now that we've gotten that out of the way, could you help me with my Charms essay?

"If by 'help' you mean 'do it for you', then no."

Ron: Please, Hermione? I'm desperate!

"Ugh! When is it due?"

Ron: Tomorrow...

"Tomorrow?! Honestly, Ronald!"

Ron: Sorry! I've been busy lately...

"Of course you have been..."

*Later in the library.*

Ginny: Hey, Hermione...

"Hello."

Ginny: What are you doing?

"I'm doing your brother's homework for him, why?"

Ginny: Just wanted to make sure that you weren't doing anything important...

"Okay?"

Ginny: Hermione, I'm really sorry for the way I've been acting. I wasn't mad because you were dating a Slytherin, I was mad because you weren't dating Ron...

"What do you mean?"

Ginny: Well, I was kind of hoping that the two of you would get back together...

"Why?"

Ginny: He's a better person when he's with you and... I know that you still like each other...

"I'm sorry, Ginny, but I doubt that Ron and I will ever get back together."

Ginny: I know, I was just hoping... Will you please forgive me for the way I acted?

"Of course! You're one of my best friends!"

Luna: I see you two are getting along again!

Ginny: Thankfully!

Luna: Hermione, Draco asked me to give this to you...

*Luna gives Hermione a letter.*

Hermione,

I'm not giving up on us that easily. I know you still love me and I won't rest until I have you back.

You are my forever. I am always yours.

Ginny: Does he seriously want you back?

"Apparently..."

Luna: Well, I'm not surprised! You were the best thing that has ever happened to him.

Ginny: You're not going back to him, are you?

"I- I can't..."

Luna: Why not?

"Beacuse... They'll kill him."
