(I like H/H but don't want Hermione to die)  I just can see some big 
wedge coming between them in book 6.

JKR seems to have placed several wedges between them already in OOP 
without needing to physically harm Hermione or Ron at all.

The first and most significant wedge is Ron becoming prefect instead 
of Harry.  Hermione's glee when she sees Harry holding the badge and 
thinking that it was Harry that became the prefect was brilliantly 
shown by JKR in her shrieking reaction and the simple line "Me too, 
Harry, me too!" 

The sheer joy  she expresses in those five words is amazing. She is 
VERY disappointed when she finds out that it is Ron instead of Harry. 

In addition, by Harry not becoming prefect, Ron and Hermione are 
forced to spend more time together and are separated from Harry on 
the train. An additional development resulting from the prefect 
selection is Harry becoming closer to Ginny, Neville and eventually 
Luna.

We'll see...
