down the hall. Harry and Hermione were holding hands and
Ron was practically attached to Hermione at the elbow.
Hermione was glad they were all friends again, but Ron and
Harry were feeling mega jealosy. Ron was mad because Harry
had stolen Hermione from him. Harry was jealous because he
was worried Ron would steal Hermione back. Hermione,
standing between them, couldn't detect this as they headed
towards the Great Hall for break fast. As soon as she sat
down, an owl dropped a magazine on her empty plate. She
picked it up, curious, and saw it was *Witch Weekly*.
Smiling and waving on the front cover was Mrs. Weasley,
Ron's mom.
"Ron! Look! It's your mom!" Hermione shouted excitedly,
drawing attention from the passing student.
"Where?" Ron asked worredly, "I hope I'm not in trouble
again!"
"Look! She's he-" Hermione was interupted as someone
snatched the magazine away from her.
"Wow, Weasel. D'you think your mom was paid to do this?
She certainly looks happy. Maybe they paid her a whole
Galleon! God knows you could use it. And, what's this
I've heard? Potty's going out with the Mudblood? And,
Potty *stole* the Mudblood from Weasel! Is it true?"
Draco Malfoy, their archenemy, had walked by at that moment.
"Shut up, Malfoy, you jerk." Ron hissed at him. Ron
might've become friends with Harry and Hermione again, but
he was still touchy on that particular subject.
"I guess so, then. Weasel-" Malfoy looked stunned as ROn
interupted him.
"MY NAME IS RON WEASLEY!! THEIR NAMES ARE HARRY POTTER AND
HERMIONE GRANGER!!!" Ron bellowed at Malfoy.
Malfoy looked extremely surprised. It was obvious he had
never been interupted before.
"AND, MALFOY, YOU ARE A SLIME-BALL GIT! LEAVE US
ALONE OR YOU WILL BE SORRY!!!" Ron continued.
"I-I'll be s-sorry? W-Weas-*ley*," Malfoy struggled to say
Weasley instead of Weasel, "Y-You're the one wh-who'll be s-
sorry!" Malfoy stuttered, then walked away.
