Chapter 4: Harry's Secret found out.
Ron looked up from his food towards his two best friends. His jaw fell at the sight of them holding hands. Hermione giggled, let go of Harry's hand and walked outside to Ginny, who was practicing Quidditch. Ginny wanted to try out for the Beater position.
"Bring the bat back, love!" Hermione shouted to her friend and laughed.
"Right back at you Hermione!" Ginny teased.
Harry walked beside Hermione, handing her his Firebolt. She carefully climbed onto it and chased Ginny around the Quidditch Practice pitch.
"MI MI!" shouted a little girl's voice Hermione knew so well. She looked down and saw Britney, Leah and Nicola looking up at her and Ginny.
Hermione landed gently in front of the girls and hugged them tight.
Harry saw Fred Weasley, one of the Weasley twins, standing in the shadowy part of the garden, grinning from ear to ear.
Harry mouthed to Fred, "why are you grinning like that?"
Fred made a swift motion with his hand, as if telling Harry to follow him. So he did.
"Harry, I know you love Hermione, and I also know you don't like seeing her upset, scared or whatever." Fred told him knowingly.
"Who the hell have you been talking to?! How the fuck do you know I love Hermione?" Harry asked, blushing at his last sentence.
"I hear things." Fred said airily and smiling. He walked away, leaving Harry blushing bright red at how Fred found out about his infatuation with his female best friend.
Ron could've told him. Harry thought.
