Hermione Granger was in the Gryffindor Common Room, doing homework with Ron. Unfortunetly, Ron was unable to concentrate. 'Merlin,' He thought, 'she's beautiful...' His face assumed a dream like expression, and his mouth started to drool. However, he was awakened from his state, by a giggle from Hermione. Ron's face immedietly flushed red in embarrassment. "Don't be embarrassed, silly! That's one of the things I love about you!" Ron's gaze fixed on Hermione as she said this. His expression turned from one of embarassment, to incredulous shock. "Y-you love m-me?" He said. Hermione's cheeks turned slightly pink, and she muttered "Yes, Ron, I-i do.."

With that sentence, Ron leaned forward, and captured her lucious pink lips in a soft kiss. Hermione gasped, and her eyes widened in suprise, then closed, as she responded to the kiss.

Slap!

"Oww! Hermione! What did you do that for?" He protested. "That, Ron, was for stealing my first kiss." She then grabbed his tie, and crashed her lips onto hers, kissing him fiercely. "And that," she panted, her cheeks red, "was because I do love you!"

Ginny whispered, "Harry! Did you hear, Ron and Hermione are going out!" Harry just chuckled. "About time then," he said. "About time."
