A HermioneXGinny Story

Chapter five

While sauntering through Hogsmeade, Hermione kept thinking of auburn hair and dark brown eyes. God, she was becoming so infatuated with her, so absorbed by every single detail Ginny seemed to possess. "I could buy her something", she mumbled to herself and tried to think desperately of something Ginny liked. She glimpsed through every shop window, her eyes furiously searching for the perfect gift. Finally, she decided upon getting her a silver ring she found particularly beautiful. She would hide it beneath Ginny's pillow and she would find it there and ask herself who could have got it for her. She would certainly wear it, Hermione was sure of it.
"Hermione, have you got a boyfriend? Whom are you buying this ring?", Ron interrupted her thinking process. "No, I haven't got any boyfriend", she replied hoping to imply indirectly that she wouldn't be thrilled about further elaborations on this topic. "Just asking", he said. "Let's get a cup of hot chocolate", Harry suggested in order to alleviate the tense atmosphere. Grateful for this kind of distraction, Hermione and Ron followed him into the café.
