Hermione and Ron walked around the lake twice before breaking the silence.
"Well--um--It's a lovely day," Ron noted. Hermione sighed, somehow this whole scene went a bit differently in her head.
"Woah!" Ron exclaimed falling into Hermione. She pushed him away startled.
"What was that about?"
"I--something pushed me!"
Hermione rolled her eyes, "Oh honestly Ron stay away from the fire whiskey!"
"But--it--something was there!" Hermione pierced her lips together walking ahead of him.
"Idiot boy.." she muttered to herself. As soon as the words escaped her lips she felt a tight tug in the back of hair.
"Ow! Ron!" She gasped turning around.
"What?"
"You almost ripped my hair out that's what!"
"I did not!" Ron shouted back. He walked closer to her when he abruptly fell flat on his face. He stumbled back up facing Hermione.
"Something very strange is going on.."
"The only thing strange here is you." she commented walking away from him.
"Oh so I just tripped myself for the fun of it!" Ron exclaimed trying to catch up with her.
"Please! You fell Ron."
"I--I felt a leg Hermione! Something tripped me!"
"This is getting really ridic--" Hermione stopped turning around to face him.
Wheels started turning in her head. Somebody was trying to mess with her.
Then at that moment Ron was pushed on top of Hermione and they were both sent rolling down the grassy hill screaming their heads off. There were two muffled laughs at the top of the hill. Harry removed the invisibility cloak.
"That was priceless!" Harry said breathlessly, "The look on Ron's face!" Ginny laughed with him.
"I hope we pushed them off the right hill." Ginny muttered still laughing.
"You did," Harry said turning towards her, "I can see Luna and Neville running away from the willow tree Hermione and Ron are headed towards."
"They are going to be so mad, "Ginny giggled. Harry smiled staring at her.
"What?" she asked innocently.
"I-Can I kiss you now?"
Ginny blushed nodding her head slightly. Harry slowly leaned down and genlty pressed with lips to hers. Ginny's stomache did a a violent flip giving her soft butterflies. This was so much better than she ever thought it could be. After this was over, she'd have to remember to thank Hermione.

"Ronald get off of me! I'm not a sled!"
"Oomf, You're the one who wanted to-ouch- climb up the bloody--ow!--hill!"
"Ron the tree!"
"Ah!" They screamed together colliding into the tree. Hermione grunted rubbing her head and standing up on her feet. Ron attempted to stand up, but fell back down dizzy from all the rolling.
"What the bloody hell was that?!" he exclaimed
"That, "Hermione said exasperated, "Was Harry using his invisibility cloak."
"Why would Harry do that?" Ron laughed, trying to take a step towards her, but his feet wouldn't budge. Ron looked down panicking. "Why--why can't I move?"
Hermione tried to move too but couldn't. She looked up to the branch of the tree and her eyes widened in horror. "Oh no."
"What? What oh no?" Ron squeaked looking up too. "Is that--Is that mistletoe?"
"Charmed mistletoe." Hermione said sighing. "We're stuck here," she stated bluntly.
"What the bloody hell do you mean 'we're stuck here'?!"
"Exactly what I said, we're stuck here."
"But.."
"Oi Hermione, Ron! Got yourself in a sticky situation there don't ya?" Fred and George called walking over to them.
"You!" Ron said darkly, "You two did this!"
"Suprisenly no," George, or perhaps Fred answered, "This was all Ginny's little plan."
"Ginny?"
"Yes, came to us she did. Asked for one of our tampered mistletoe."
"But--but it's not even Christmas!" Ron squeaked, "It's the middle of March!"
"And now we're back to we're stuck here," Hermione cut in.
"Now, now miss granger.." Fred, or maybe George said smirking, "I think we both know what you have to do in order to get out of this mess." Ron's ears went bright pink, they were almost glowing.
"Do you mean to say that we--that we have to.."
"Kiss," the twins said smiling.
"Pucker up those lips little brother." George or Fred said teasingly.
"Shut up!" Ron scolded. The twins just laughed racing back towards the castle.
"She is so dead!" screamed Hermione violently.
"Don't worry Hermione you won't be that bad."
Hermione glared at Ron, "Excuse me?"
"I'll go easy on you," Ron said leaning down to kiss her. Hermione stopped him by punching him square in the nose.
"Bloody hell!"
"Well!" Hermione huffed, "I'm sorry if I can't look as gorgeous as someone like Fleur, but that does not mean I am a bad kisser!!"
"Well maybe if you had more experience.." Ron squeaked still holding his nose.
Hermione's jaw clenched, "What makes you think that I don't have experience?!"
"Well for starters when someone wants to kiss you, punching them in the nose isn't the best response."
"Well if that someone really wanted to kiss me then that someone shouldn't have made me out as some ugly girl that doesn't know how to give a good snog."
"I never said you were ugly."
You implied it."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not."
"Did too."
"I did not! You're a very pretty girl!!"
"Did ..What?" she asked completely shocked.
"I.." Ron sighed, "Please don't make me say it again." Hermione couldn't help the slight smile that played on her lips.
"You really think I'm pretty?"
"Well, yes." he said blushing madly. Hermione gleamed with delight jumping into his arms and kissed him hard on the lips.
"Hermione.." Ron muffled through her lips.
"Mm hm"
"You're bruising my already bruised nose."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Do you think Ginny's plans going to work?" Luna asked breathlessly running away from the willow tree.
"I hope so, " Neville answered beside her, "That stupid mistletoe cost me seven coins!" Luna laughed quietly retreating back to her normal walking pace.
"Look there's Ginny and Harry!" she said pointing to them in the distance, "Should we wait for them?"
Neville shrugged, "Sure."
"Drink up me 'earties, yo ho!!"
"Did--did you hear that?" Luna asked softly.
"Hear what?" Suddenly Draco's head popped out of a near by bush.
"Ahh!! man-eating bush!" Neville screamed reaching for his wand.
"Neville wait!" Luna exclaimed, but it was already too late.
"What the bloody hell did you do to me Longbottom?!" Draco screeched stumbling out from behind the bush, with Parvarti close behind him.
"Ah!!" Darco screamed, "I'm covered in flowers!" Luna held back a laugh.
"S--sorry, I thought.." Neville stuttered
"I really wish you'd stop doing that."
"Doing what?"
"Thinking." Draco sneered.
"Oh Draco," Parvarti giggled, "They're bueatiful!"
"Really? Well uh--there for you!" Draco exclaimed, "Happy 5 hour anniversary!"
"Awe Draco that's so sweet!" she paused, "It's a lot better than that Pirate poem you were trying to sing to me.."
"But you said you loved pirates..I thought that.."
"No silly I said I loved Pirated dvd's, my muggle cousin gave them to me over the summer."
"Wait you're a mud-blood?!" Draco spat appalled.
Parvarti folded her arms across her chest, "Is that a problem?" she sneered.
"Uh-problem?" Draco stuttered, "No no problem--I don't care if you're--if you're that." Parvarti squealed excitedly grabbing Draco's hand. "Dad's going to kill me," He muttered under his breath as Parvarti dragged him and his flowery body over to her giggling friends.
"Luna, have you noticed anything..strange going on at Hogwarts lately?" Neville asked, as Draco and Parvarti disappeared in the crowd.
"Just the usual." Luna said sighing, "I blame it on the Toglytoms, there quite the little beast you know."
"Huh?" Neville asked confused, but by then Ginny and Harry already caught up with them.
"Why is Draco covered in flowers?" Ginny asked the two as they headed back towards the castle.
"The spell was supposed to cover him in spiders," Neville corrected. Harry laughed loudly, Neville glared.
"Shouldn't we go get Ron and Hermione? We have to be back in the common room soon." Luna said urgently.
Harry glanced over towards his friends looking disgusted at the sight. Ginny smiled, "I think they're a little too preoccupied if you know what I mean."
THE END!!
