Hermione wasn't going to let it be soured for Ron and Cho though – no, she was determined that her own problems weren't going to cast a cloud over their day. She would act completely and utterly normal and ecstatically happy for Ron and Cho. It was ridiculous and self-indulgent to spend today dwelling on the fact that Draco didn't want to give her what Ron and Cho were getting to experience today. It was self-pitying, pointless, and didn't change a thing, she told herself firmly as she showered almost angrily, scrubbing herself pink and clean and dragging a brush viciously through her hair.
