Opposites Attract-George Weasley Love Story *COMPLETED*

Chapter 9- Honest Feelings

EBONY'S POV

"Cormac now isn't the time" I don't think Hermione meant for it to come out as harsh as it did but it still didn't seem to faze him,

"Come on why are you all the way over here?" she rolled her eyes,

"Cormac I'm trying to talk to Ebony right now-"

"-About what? Girl problems? She can handle herself fine, or if you want I can stay here with you two while you talk" she huffed and shook her head,

"No Cormac this needs to be just between Ebony and I-"

"-Well Ebony can wait Hermione, I wanted to spend some time with you tonight, you were the one who asked me to be your date so I don't understand why we're spending so much time a part" he winked towards her and we both gagged, how is this guy so liked?

"And besides" he took a step closer,

"I was hoping we could have some EXTRA special time together after this party is all over; just the two of us if you know what I mean. I do have my own dorm after all-" Smack! Hermione cut him off with a hard slap to the face; he stumbled back a bit as he gripped his face; I covered my mouth with my hand and tried hiding my smile; Hermione is NEVER the type of person to do that type of thing but with the way Cormac was talking I don't blame her,

"Hermione why would you do that?" she rolled her eyes and crossed her arms,

"Cormac don't you think that you're EVER going to get anywhere like that with me let alone at all; I don't like you like that and quite frankly I think you're the most obnoxious person alive. I don't know what makes you think that you can talk to people like that but let me tell you I'm not going to tolerate it" his eyebrow quirked,

"Now if you don't mind Ebony and I were discussing things that you don't need to listen too" Cormac laughed a little and took a step forward; his hands now to his sides,

"Why would you invite me to this party if you didn't like me?" Hermione didn't say anything so I stepped up,

"Ever heard of inviting someone as friends? That's what Harry and I did" I crossed my arms and Hermione smiled at me in thanks,

But I don't think Cormac believed me,

"No, the way Hermione talks to me it seems like she doesn't like me at all, so there's obviously another reason why you invited me" Hermione and I looked at each other while his eyes narrowed at us; how come he has to be smart at figuring stuff out now? I thought he was always stupid?

"Did you invite me just to say that you had a date? To show someone that you had a date? Who is it?"

"Cormac I think you're over thinking this-" he took another step forward and this time I stepped in front of Hermione; blocking her from Cormac.

Suddenly, as if Hermione was looking at someone Cormac followed her stare until he looked right at Ron and Lavender as his eyes narrowed even more,

"Really? Weasley? You like Weasley? And because he doesn't like me you decided to use me to make him jealous?" I sighed as my shoulders slumped; why was he suddenly so smart? Hearing no response he lightly growled as his fist clenched,

"Mclaggion you don't need to get hostile-"

"-Move out of the way Ebony" I stopped when for once I heard how angry Cormac actually was; but I stood my ground and didn't move.

"No, you need to leave Mclaggion, I'm not letting you get anywhere near Hermione" suddenly he grabbed my upper arm and tried to shove me to the side but I wasn't budging.
