18Luveroffanfic: (Yawn) I'm bored. I could give you more meds.
Harrypotterfan2011: I have a new game to play. How about you take the meds?
Luveroffanfic: Caitlin, Caitlin. I'm already hyper and I'm not insane. Like you.
Harrypotterfan2011: I'm insane. Well insane this. (slaps Mel on the back of the head)
Luveroffanfic: OWWW! What you'd do that for?
Harrypotterfan2011: Because you are a complete…
Luveroffanfic: That's it. Take your meds.
Harrypotterfan2011: No.
Luveroffanfic: Don't make me call the S.W.A.T. team.
Harrypotterfan2011: We don't have a swat team.
Luveroffanfic: O.K. Don't make me call Grandma.
Harrypotterfan2011: What is she going to do? Make me take drugs.
Luveroffanfic: Good point. Anyways let's just do the story.
Joyfulsara: You already got your reply so don't expect anything. We just like to mention all of our reviewers.
RoleplayersRule: We think it kind of is like Ron to swear but we appreciate your review either way and we await your… um… ideas.
Cool-people-suck: You're turning into us with all the drugs. But happy pills are awesome anyway. Thanks for the review. Read more and have fun. Btw lovely name. I'm assuming that just refers to preppy popular jerks.
Option 2: Love him. (Part one.)
2nd person POV (Innocent bystander POV)
Ginny sat at the end of her best friend's bed, having sunk weak-kneed when she heard what her best friend was about to do. "Are you sure you want to do this Hermione?"
"Yes… but I'm still freaking out here," Hermione said pacing the length of dormitory.
"Will you stop pacing? You're making me nervous. And I'm not even doing anything."
"Would you prefer me to be ripping a pillow to pieces?" said Hermione nervously.
"Keep pacing," said Ginny. "Well if you're sure you want to do this-"
"What am I supposed to do? Keep it bottled up inside my whole life. I mean I have to tell him sometime. And I'd prefer to get it over with while I'm still young and he's still single. It'd be kind of awkward to tell him when he's married," Hermione said, shuddering at the very thought.
"Good point," Ginny said. "Well whatever happens, I'll still be your friend."
"So you're going to come and support me," Hermione said, glancing at her friend.
"Are you mad? This is going to be awkward enough without his little sister there." Ginny shook her head. "He doesn't want me in his love life. Besides, if it works out both of you won't want me there anyways. No, I'll have more fun with Harry."
"Wait. Fun, how? Doesn't he fancy Cho?" Hermione said, stopping her pacing momentarily.
"Well… I'm trying to get us together. So fun would be… umm…" Ginny said, going scarlet. "Enough about my love life. How are you going to tell him?"
"How? Well I just figured I'd…. honestly Gin I have no idea. Didn't think that far ahead."
"You didn't plan ahead. That is so unlike you. I guess being nervous makes you lose your… ummm… organizational skills." Ginny smiled.
"Shut up! This is bad enough without you're jokes. Honestly, you're as bad as Fred and George. Well close enough," Hermione said, exasperated.
Ginny bowed, smirking slightly. "I'll take that as a compliment."
"Well if you're not going to help, go out and try and get Harry interested in you," Hermione said, now starting to get angry.
"OK OK, Hermione. Calm down. I'll help. Just don't blow up at me," Ginny said calmly.
"How should I tell him?" Hermione asked, calming down slightly.
"Well there are 4 ways to tell him. 1. Just go up and kiss him and explain later. 2. Explain and kiss later. 3. Write him a cheesy love note and wait until he kisses you. 4. I'll tell him and you can wait nearby and kiss him after."
"Why does every option have me kissing him?" Hermione said exasperated.
"This is my brother Hermione. He needs be kissed by someone else than Aunt Muriel. And he wants to kiss someone other that our Aunt. Besides he likes you," explained Ginny.
"If he's kissing me, he damn well better like me," Hermione said.
"Hermione Jane Granger, did you just swear?" Ginny asked, in mock astonishment.
"Yes I did," said Hermione without blinking.
"OK. I thought I heard it. Just checking," Ginny said, smiling.
"Ohh! You're hopeless, Ginny," Hermione said.
"That helps my self-esteem," said Ginny with pretend hurt in her voice.
"Never mind. I'm going to go tell Ronald now."
"Which choice did you pick?" Ginny said curiously.
"That's for me to know, and you never to find out," said Hermione.
"Well that sucks," Ginny said. "I give you all those options and I don't even get to find out which method is best for me to use on Harry."
"I'm going through a romantic emotional crisis and all you can think of is how to snag Harry. Thanks Ginny. You're so helpful," Hermione said sarcastically.
"That's what I'm here for 'Mione. Now you go and tell Ron and if I don't see you holding hands in the common room tonight, I will tell him," Ginny threatened.
"Well, what if he just doesn't want to hold hands," Hermione said. She was thinking how nice it would be to hold hands with Ron.
"Hermione, again, this is my brother. He will want to hold hands or at least be in some physical contact of some kind. He needs to be in some physical contact with a girl or he will go mad," Ginny explained, as though this were the most obvious thing in the world.
"O.K. I got it. I have to be in some physical contact with your brother or he will be told… never mind," Hermione said uncomfortably. "I'm going to tell him now." But she didn't move.
"Hermione, you can't tell Ron from up here," Ginny said, suppressing a laugh.
"Shut up and give me a push," Hermione said hysterically. Ginny steered her down the stairs and into the common room.
"Now there he is," Ginny said, pointing at Ron who was sitting finishing an essay for Snape. "Just go and tell him."
"I can't. He'll hate me for life. I'm just going to wait for him to say something," Hermione choked. Ginny grabbed her arm and pulled her over to Ron.
"Ron, ask Hermione how she's feeling?" Ginny said.
"Why the he-" Ron began but Ginny cut him off with a painful elbow in the ribs. "OWW! All right, all right. How are you feeling Hermione?"
"Can't… breathe… having… a heart… attack… not… going… to see… 16," Hermione gasped.
Ginny said, "Oh stop being such a drama queen Hermione. It's not that bad."
Ron was looking very confused. "Are you trying to kill Hermione or is this just some new comedy act that you two are preparing for?"
Hermione sunk onto the couch in a dead faint. Just then Harry entered the portrait hole. "RON! What'd you do to her?"
Ron jumped to his feet growing angry, "What did I do to her? What did I do to her? I have absolutely no idea."
Hermione stirred. Ginny half jumped on her. "Hermione, get your damn butt off that couch and tell my idiot of a brother what you planned to tell him and if you don't I will tell him."
"Tell me what?" said Ron confused.
"Just shut up Ron. I'm in the middle of a rant," Ginny yelled at him. She was attracting the attention of everyone in the common room.
"Ginny," Harry said awkwardly, "Whatever Hermione has it in her right mind to tell Ron, she might want to find somewhere else to do that. Since all of Gryffindor tower knows that Hermione wants to tell Ron something very important."
"Tell me what?" said Ron a little louder.
"Great. Now he knows I want to tell him something. There is no backing out of it now. Thanks a lot Ginny," Hermione said sarcastically.
"You're welcome," Ginny said, smiling sweetly. "Now tell him before I completely lose it and tell him myself."
"Harry, "said Hermione, smiling even more sweetly than Ginny, "Would you mind taking this complete imb- I mean sweet little girl away before she can cause anymore of a scene in here?"
"No problem at all," Harry said, somewhat confused. "Let's go Ginny."
"Ron-" Hermione began, but then noticing that half the common room was still staring at them, she stopped abruptly. "If I wanted an audience for this I would have sold tickets. So unless you're going to pay to watch the show, turn your attention elsewhere."
From nearby, Fred and George threw a couple galleons at them. "Very funny. You can't watch, but I'm keeping the money. Thanks." And with that she grabbed Ron's hand and pulled him from the common room.
