Four Way Connection

Part 2 - At the Burrow

Lunch Time

Hermione's POV

'This is going to be hard. I wonder if I'll be able to keep my feelings inside after the next week of 'dating' Ron. I hope so, I've been doing it for 6 years now. I obviously haven't been doing a very good job though, Harry and Ginny have picked up on it.

Oh well. I'll just figure something out. I can always read the whole time. No, thats not good. I'm going to have to act like a girlfriend would. Well, that wont be very hard. I'll just act like I have wanted to for the past 6 years.

Ok I have to stop talking to myslef!'

"Hermione! Honey? You're going to be late! Are you ready to leave?"

"Um ... Yeah, I think so." I tell my mum, who has just walked up to my open door.

"Ok, good. Come on. Your father and I would like to have a quick talk with you before everyone comes to pick you up."

A talk? About what? They know they don't have to remind me of my manners. Why would we need to talk?

When I get downstairs my dad looks at me with this odd experstion. "Hermione sit down please."

I look at him for another moment before sitting down next to him of the sofa. My mum walks over to a chair and sit across from me.

"Honey, we know your growing up." Uh oh! They're going to give me the talk! The one they give me every year. The 'we - know - your - growing - up - and - we - want - you - to - know - we - don't - like - that - your - going - to - sleep - over - the - Weasley's - house - because - they - have - to - many - young - men - there' talk!!

"Dad! Don't worry. Nothing will happen! I don't like any of them in that way!" I tell him, trying to ignore the little voice at that back of my head screaming 'You're a lying little girl! You know you've liked Ron since 1st year! Why do you lie to your parents every year?'

My dad sighes, just like every other year and says "Oh we know. We're just being over protecting agian. Have funny."

I hate lying to them. It makes me feel like an ungrateful child. What else can I do, though?

My parents get up and leave and I walk over to the little table on the other side of our living room, my book is sitting on it. I pick it up and go back to sit on the couch.

I start reading and tune out everyone around me until someone grabs the book out of my hand. "Hey Mione! Why is it everytime I see you you have a book in your hand?" Ron! Thank God!

I smile and pull him down next to me and give him a big hug. I've started hugging Harry and Ron a lot more than I did when I was younger. Of course, I hug Harry because he's my brother, but I hug Ron because I love being close to him ...

Someone from behind is stiffling a giggle. I look up and find Ginny and Harry holding hands next to the fire place.

"Mione, help me! They've been attached by the hand since they saw eachother!" I look at him and then at Harry and Ginny. I know I'm dying to hold his hand but I can't. Instead I walk over to Harry and hug him.

"Hey Harry."

Then I give Ginny a big hug . I whisper "Ginny! You guys know you're driving Ron up the wall?"

They smile and say "Yep! Isn't it great?"

"No. I'm going to have to be around him while he's grumpy!" I tell them as I look back at Ron.

Ginny giggles and whispers "I'm sure you can distract him for a bit!"

I look shocked. Why do they have to know I like him!

I walk back over to Ron. "Oh well. I guess it's you and me." I say as Ginny and Harry Floo back to the Burrow.

"I don't mind." Ron shrugs as he takes my hand and leads me over to the fire place too "Good bye Mr. and Mrs. Granger."

"Bye! Have fun."

And with that we left for the Burrow.

I hate using the Floo network. My head is always so dizzy once I get out of the fire place. I walk over to the tiny sofa close by. My eyes are closed and my head is still spinning.

"Mione, you're going to have to open your eyes sooner or later and since I think you've got beautiful eyes I'd rather it was sooner." Ron? Why is he saying this? Luna's probably near by.

I open my eyes only to find Ron sitting next to me on the sofa. "Happy?" I ask him as I look around for Luna.

"She's in Ginny's room right now." How does he do that? How is it he always knows what I'm thinking?

"Who?" I ask him innocently.

"I know you're looking for Luna. She's in Ginny's room. Oh and before you go find her - " he says just as I'm about to get up and walk over to the stairs "Mum wants to talk to you first."

"Why does she want to talk to me." I ask him as I walk into the kitchen.

"Oh my! Hermione dear, how are you? I just heard the good news! I'm so glad! Oh! Arthur and I have been waiting for this day to come since the day we first met you!" Mrs. Weasley is now hugging me. I think my blood has stop rushing through my veins.

Finally! She has let me go, "oh thanks, Mrs. Weasley." And I walk back up to Ron.

"Hey sweetie!" He says. Yeah right! Sweetie my foot! How could he tell his mother we were dating?! "Ok! I know what your thinking. But I didn't tell her! Ginny did." He tells me.

Ginny? Why would she do that? "Well now we're going to have to explain this whole mess to your family!" I tell him.

"Well, we can do that once Luna's left. For now just go with whatever they say." He looks me in the eye. Damn! I can't stand it when he does that! It's like he's looking inside of me! I can't do this.

I look away "Alright, fine. But as soon as she's gone we're telling them the truth!" I tell him as Ginny and Harry walk into the room.

"Is that lipstick on your cheek, Harry?" Ron points out.

"Erm ... yes." He starts rubbing at his check.

"Oh, and who's lipstick is it?" Ron walks up to him. I know he thinks it's Ginny's so I grab his arm and move infront of him.

"Ron" I warn him.

"It's not mine you prat!" Ginny pipes up. "It's mum's! She was just happy to see Harry!"

I see him relax a bit. I think it's really sweet that he cares so much for his little sister.

"Oh, alright. So now everyone knows huh?" He walks over to the sofa again, taking my hand in his and pulling me down next to him.

I like the feeling of being close to him, even if it is just sitting on the sofa.

"Erm, yeah." Harry answers and Ginny starts coughing to cover up her giggles.

"Ron, maybe Hermione and I should go get Luna. She must be lonely all by herself." Ginny says, once she stops coughing.

We walk upstairs, leaving Ron and Harry to talk.

"Hermione, it looks like your enjoying yourself!" Ginny comments.

"Oh be quiet! You know I like him. You can stop teasing me now!" I whisper.

We walk into Ginny's room and find Luna sitting on the floor reading a book of some sort.

"Oh Gin! You guys are back?" Luna looks up.

Ginny nods and says "Yep, Hermione's here as well. You remember her, right? Ron's girlfriend."

Hmm, that sounds really nice. Ron's girlfriend. I'm smiling and I know Ginny has noticed.

"Oh, yes. I remember you." She walks up to me. "You'd better be careful. One mistake and you could lose him." She says and then she walks out of the room.

"She's really beginning to bug me." I mumble.

"Hermione don't worry, Ron likes you! Not Luna." Ginny hugs me.

"Thanks Gin. Lets go."

As we walk downstairs again I here Luna, "So I was thinking after lunch we could go swimming. Wouldn't that be fun?"

Ron looks up at me as I enter the room. "Yeah it does. I can't wait to see Mione in a bathing suit!" Then he winks at me.

I can feel my cheeks turn red. I look at Harry who is looking from Ron to me and then to Luna who looks like she's about to explode. Harry, who is now holding Ginny up because she can't do that herself, due to the fit of silent giggles says "Well, if you guy's are going swimming Gin and I will come too.

Just then Mrs. Weasley calls out "Lunch is ready everyone."

We all walk over to the table silently. Harry and Ginny pull up a chair next to eachother while Luna makes a run for the spot next to the chair Ron is dragging out.

I'm not going to let her sit next to him! She'd better watch out!
