Chapter 20
Everyone was sat around the kitchen table in The Burrow. Hermione was the only one standing. Ron was as far away from Hermione as possible, and everyone had noticed this. Everyone was still talking and Hermione couldn't get them to be silent.
"EVERYONE BE QUIET!" Mrs Weasley shouted. They all immediately stopped.
"Okay." Hermione started. "You should all know the real reason I broke up with Ron." She paused. "Ron." She looked directly at him. "You should know more than anyone else. I'm sorry I didn't tell you yesterday." She wasn't quite sure how to put this, so she just spoke. "So, I found my soul mate too." Everyone, apart from Mrs Weasley and Harry gasped. Then, they started talking, asking questions, all at once.
Mrs Weasley shouted again. "BE QUIET." She stopped shouting when everyone was quiet. "Stop asking questions and let her explain."
"The first question would be: who is it? It's Luna. Luna Lovegood is my soul mate." She was terrified and she didn't know why. "And secondly, we seem to be an exception to the myth. This is the second time in a thousand years, with Harry and Draco being the first. No one else noticed before I did. We don't know why, all we know is that it is happening. We are going to hopefully find out more tomorrow though." She explained. "Right, any questions now?"
Surprisingly, Ron was first to ask a question. "When did you work it out?" He asked, quietly.
"Not long ago, Ron. Maybe a few weeks ago, but I still wasn't sure." She felt bad for Ron anyway.
George was still very childish. "So that's why you were with Ron. Because he's so much like a girl that you couldn't tell the difference." Then, he felt Ron slap him round the back of the head, before storming out. Harry couldn't help but laugh his head off.
Mrs Weasley shouted at George. "WHY WOULD YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT, GEORGE? YOU KNOW HE'S HURT." But, really, this didn't help. He and Harry just kept laughing until Bill put a silencing charm on them both.
"Thanks, Bill." Said Hermione.
"He's too childish for his own good, sometimes." Charlie said.
Soon after, Hermione and Harry left. They went shopping to buy ingredients for Hermione to cook dinner, then, they returned home.
