Hermione slipped out of her bunk and moved like a sleepwalker toward Ron, her eyes upon his pale face. She stopped right in front of him, her lips slightly parted, her eyes wide. Ron gave a weak, hopeful smile and half raised his arms.

“Ouch—ow—gerroff! What the—? Hermione—OW!”

“You—complete—arse—Ronald—Weasley!”

She punctuated every word with a blow: Ron backed away, shielding his head as Hermione advanced.

“You—crawl—back—here—after—weeks—and—weeks—oh, where’s my wand?”
