Sighs
Chapter 14
A/N: Well. Finally. I know, I know! It's Short too! I'm SORRY! Longer next time.
Warnings: Massive amounts of fluff. I'm not too sure how well I can write fluff, so there may be some angst. But mostly fluff.
Now. On to the story.
------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey you two, break it up ey?"
Ron.
Master of Timing.
He was met by a rather shaky "Hey Ron" and a watery "Hi."
"Gee. Don't get up to thank me all at once."
It was then that the two on the bed noticed the HUGE tray of food Ron was carrying.
"Wow. That's a lot of food."
"Yeah Ron, what did you do? Empty the kitchens?"
"Ha, Ha, very funny. NO, I did NOT empty the kitchens…well, not ALL of them. And besides, Dobby insisted. He said I could finish whatever you two didn't eat. I think that was a compliment."
Harry and Hermione laughed. It felt good to laugh.
"So," Ron queried tentatively, "Is everything alright?"
Harry and Hermione looked at each other and nodded.
"We're fine."
Ron looked a little skeptical; 'fine' was a rather vague word. But if they weren't fighting, then it was better.
"Good. Now. I bet you're both hungry. Eat up and I'll tell the others that you're ok. Both of you. EAT! Dobby threatened me with no food for a week if I didn't get you two to eat. So eat! NOW!"
With that, Ron left to find Draco, Ginny and Ron.
Leaving Harry and Hermione alone in the Hospital Wing.
As they munched on their food, they talked. They talked about things they hadn't talked about in months: Quidditch, books, chess, pranks, teachers, homework, NEWTs, the past. Nothing was closed for discussion. They caught up on months of news, and if one could see emotions and friendship, they'd have seen the threads connecting the two mend and weave themselves together once again.
They were interrupted from their meal as Ginny came in a threw herself at the duo. Ron and Draco were a little more restrained, Ron giving Harry a hug, a manly hug, but still a hug, and Hermione a kiss on the cheek. Draco shook Harry's hand and clapped him on the back, and, when Hermione hugged him, he looked a little embarrassed. But it was ok. Everything was returning to normal.
Almost, anyway.
"So. When's the shagging going to happen?"
And so Draco was almost given a concussion by two girls. He managed to avoid it by falling off his chair with laughter. Ron was next with his comment.
"Soon I believe. I mean they were practically there when I looked in on them."
Ron wasn't as quick so he ended up on the floor laughing his head off by means of two pillows.
Harry kept his mouth shut, but still received a pillow for his struggles.
"Hey! I didn't say anything!"
"No, but you were thinking it! Don't even try to deny it! Boys! Bah!"
"Fine. You want to play rough?"
With that, the greatest pillow fight in history began. When Madame Pomfrey came back in, she could barely see through the feathers.
"Mr. POTTER! Mr. Malfoy! Mr. Weasley! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"
All five froze. That was her 'I'm going to hex EVERYONE INTO NEXT YEAR!' voice.
"OUT! OUT! ALL OF YOU OUT! YES EVEN YOU MR. POTTER! I WILL NOT HAVE YOU HARRASING MY PATIENTS! OUT!"
With that, the greatest pillow fight in history was over. Ginny was allowed to stay, only because she didn't have a pillow in hand when Madame Pomfrey came through the feathers.
"See you guys later I guess. I hope she'll let me out soon!"
And that, as they say, was that.
A pillow smacked Harry in the back of the head as he walked out, which was followed by a "We win!" All three boys smiled ruefully as they walked away. Girls. Can't live with them, can't live without them. And can't win against them.
"Hey Weasley! I challenge you to chess!"
"Oh for crying out loud!"
"You're on!"
Things were back to normal.
Almost.

A/N: Short. I'm sorry! I'm not good at teh fluff. The fluff. Whatever. More next chapter. And don't worry. This IS an H/Hr ROMANCE fic. So, as Malfoy said, the shagging will happen. ^_^
