"Stop it Ron. Just stop it now. I know that you have problems with Draco, and I understand that. But you’re judging him for what he was, not what he has become. And that’s not fair." It was an effort for Hermione to keep her voice even, and her hand clenched around her wand under the table. She didn’t know why – there was no way she could cast a hex or jinx or anything at Ron over Draco. She was too afraid it would irreparably damage their friendship. And as much as Ron was being a complete arse, he was still Ron. He was still one of Hermione’s best friends in the world. He ignored her.
