"What?" Ron's eyes narrowed. "Why didn't you tell me that you went out with some bloke that you just happened to meet in Diagon Alley, eh? He could have been anyone! He could have been the bloody anti-christ and you went out with him?!" Yes, he was overreacting a bit. Ron was fully aware of that. He did his best to keep himself from going red again. But this time? It wasn't because he was embarassed. It was because he was getting a little grumpy with the subject that had erupted between the two of them.
He shrugged. "Not really, no. We chatted a bit through the journals." He took another drink from his glass. Yeah, they had chatted all right. For about two point five seconds. But Hermione didn't need to know all about that, now did she? "Still as friendly as ever, that one. Except more mature. And...grown up."
