This is perfect...and it's not even over.

The first part, Harry going from "hiding from death eaters" to "hiding for Seamus' party" made me laugh for quite a while, how brilliant! Harry is so dark when it comes to jump to conclusions, love it!

And then the akwardness, and trying to behave like usual, the tension, everything was so well written, I really really enjoy it.

Hermione's speech about Harry going after something if it will make him happy was really touching, especially when it's directed to Harry.

Running to part II...

I had a dream that night in which Ron and I were playing naked Quidditch and I caught a Snitch which appeared to actually be one of Ron’s bollocks

Wow - I;ve had that dream!

“I looked around for anything sharp you might hurt yourselves on, and then I left.”

I LOVE this!!!!

I wasn’t worried about being gay, I was worried about bollixing up the most important thing in my life.

Exactly!

“Do you suppose we ought to… try it again?” he said, holding my gaze for a moment, before looking back at my feet.

*flails happily*

And if I had a dream that night in which Ron and I were playing naked Quidditch and I caught a Snitch which appeared to actually be one of Ron’s bollocks, I chose not to acknowledge it the next morning.

The lines like these are amazing. :D

I released a breath I hadn’t realised I’d been holding. “So what did you do?” I asked, apologetically.

“Nothing,” she said simply, as though ‘nothing’ had been her only option. “I looked around for anything sharp you might hurt yourselves on, and then I left.”

I snorted out loud at this. Perfect touch of humor, and quite believe for Hermione.

“Harry, are you as uncomfortable as I am right now?”

“Uh-huh,” I mumbled.

“Maybe we should wait a bit on this. Just, I dunno. Wait.”

“Yeah, okay.” I wondered which was worse, my disappointment or my relief.

OH JEEZ! You suck, Ron. :(

....very good so far, you did a great job on meeting the prompt without having it being your plot.

I had no idea that this is exactly what I wanted in life! THIS is how it is going to happen! Obviously! *flails*

LOL Harry if that happens, put it in the pensieve so you can see it more and more.

“’Course it was! I wanted to talk to Hermione, but she already had lunch plans, didn’t she?”

LMFAO - That's perfect. I love the uneasiness between these two, and the fact that they both wanted to go to Hermione is perfect.

That last sentence is just...damn excellent!

Yes, and then put it in a little jar and send it to me!
