A/N: Hey guys! sorry the chapter took so long! I have a tendency to write plot holes without knowing it. Please feel free to tell me about any plot holes if they come up, and I'll be sure to fix it. Thank you! - H.R

"Well, I see dinner has arrived"
At dinner:
The two redheaded twin waiters were handing out the food, coming to Hermione last.
Hermione was about to thank them when she felt her two hands being grasped and kissed.
"Well well Granger, fancy meeting you here. George and I have been talking about you."
"More like arguing, really."
"Fred, George, this isn't really the best tim-"
"You see, Granger, turns out there's a ball happening at the end of the week. Ferret told us the plans, and it will be set up very similarly to the Yule ball."
"Yes I know, what does that have anythi-"
Fred spoke up
"Would you like to do me the honor of the first dance, Granger?"
"Actually, Fred. I was going to ask the same thing. Surely Hermione likes me best. She did talk to me more at the burrow in our 5th year." George smirked as Hermione deadpanned
"You were having trouble at po-chemistry"
She was promptly ignored
"Well, she held my hand during DA practice"
"...you needed help with a patronus"
Again, she was ignored
"Remember her birthday in our 5th year? She was looking for me everywhere that day asking about my whereabouts"
"You blew up a cake in my face!"
"Well she-"
"BOYS!"
The twins cringed when they heard her prefect voice. They slowly turned around and saw that all attention was on them, and flinched when she spoke up
"If you two don't stop fooling around right now, I will tell Angelina and Katie...and being pregnant and all, they won't be happy" she said with a bit of amusement in her voice
The plan done, Fred and George decided that two former Quidditch players who were also pregnant weren't worth angering. Despite the shudders that ran down their spines, they smiled.
"Well Granger, think about that dance will you?"
"I'll be sure to tell Katie!"
With that they scurried off, leaving the table's occupants dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, Victoria was furious. Hermy the bookworm didn't deserve to have two tall, not to mention handsome men argue for her, even if it looked like they've known her for a while. She decided to kick her off her high pedestal once and for all...but how?
