What I said in my previous message about Ron's feelings towards Hermione
goes well for her too !

For example, when Harry and Ron are both in danger (which happened quite
a number of times), she quite often seems to be more relieved to find
Ron still alive and well than Harry. She cares about Harry of course,
but really not as much as she cares about Ron. And that's probably why
she gets so upset over that Scabbers/Crookshanks thing : it's Ron who's
angry at her, not Harry. After all, she didn't care as much when Harry
got furious after they took away his Firebolt because of what she'd done.

But she, too, cannot admit her inclination : he's not exactly the Perfect
Student, he's not too good-looking, he doesn't respect the rules the
way she tries to do (well, less and less as time goes on...), etc...

But the way she reacted when he actually realized she was a girl and asked
her to the ball really shows how much she resented *him* in particular
for not having done it sooner.

talked about - sweet revenge)
