Everyday From Right Now: TEASER

I figure that Tuesdays are still the best days for me to do Teasers. So here we are for Chapter 12:

”Ginny told you about the ‘No dress robes’ rule?” Ron noted.

”Yes,” Hermione said, coming close to him...

.....She sat on the edge of the bed above Ron, not wanting to get her skirt dirty, her bare legs dangling beside him. Ron suddenly gained a new appreciation for the lack of robes and had to focus very hard on focusing straight ahead, lest he be tempted to look anywhere else.

”You look nice, though,” he said quickly, his ears beginning to tinge that familiar pink. Had it been this hot in his room the entire time?

Hermione smiled down at the top of his head. “Thanks.”

They were quiet for a moment, each thinking of something extremely different.

Two things to clarify: This is the last chapter before the funeral...and this chapter causes my K+ rating to jump up to T. But I think very highly of my readers. We're all mature and we can handle it, yes? (And before I'm accosted: the rating won't go higher than T. No matter what.)


Sorry I didn't get around to (at least one of) the deleted scenes I mentioned. I'm hoping to do that this weekend though, maybe Sunday.

Just so you can see where I am in life: I have two tests tomorrow, one a midterm. I have to outline a paper due next Tuesday. Wed. night I have a meeting to go to and I just found out I got an executive board position for another club, and we meet on Thursday. Oh, there's also a football game this Sat, and next Wed. kids are coming trick-or-treating in our dorms.

I'm going to definately get you to Ch.13. But then I think I need a break so that I can catch up with some chapters. Maybe just an extra week. We'll see though, it just depends on how crazy things get....

See ya Friday with Ch. 12.
