Finally Talking

This is set after the battle when all is calming down; Ron and Hermione have been silent about their kiss ever since it happened but are excited to explore that side of them and Hermione is nervous about what they might uncover. Ron has been sexually frustrated for the past two years; Hermione had given him quite a few hard-ons, and he was excited to see if she returned those feelings.

"Hi, Hermione can I talk to you for a second." He paused and replied to her look that said 'well go on then.' "Privately." She seemed to understand and got up onto her feet.

"Sure." She replied with a smile. She followed Ron up to his untidy room and they sat on his small, but comfortable bed. Hermione could see how nervous he was and knew it was important so got a little over excited; though she tried to hide it.

"Hermione, erm; I just wanted to say that I-I like you, n-no scrap that I love you." He crashed his lips onto hers and she moaned down his throat.

When they broke apart, she said slightly startled. "Ron, I've waited so long for you to say that! I love you too." Glad she had returned his feelings he pressed softly this time onto her lips and she deepened it and slid her tongue into his willing mouth. It was the best feeling he had ever felt, knowing that this was not Lavender but Hermione, the girl he loved and she was gorgeous. Those few seconds of closeness made him see that he could never leave Hermione again.

When he pulled back she mumbled the word 'no' and tugged on his T-shirt indicating she didn't want to stop. She had obviously felt the same. As the kiss deepened they fell back so they were laying down. There was a knock at the door. They instantly broke apart and sat up.

"Come in." Exclaimed a taken aback Ron.

"Sorry to intrude but mum wanted me to bring these up for you." Bill said as he put the clean laundry on the edge of the bed before looking at their guilty faces. "Have you been... No... You couldn't have been..."

"No" they both replied simultaneously, yet with slight guilty smirks on their faces.

"OK" bill said as he closed the wonky oak door leaving the two alone once again.

"You're an amazing kisser as well as being gorgeous. You just get better and better you do." Ron said in total shock at what he had just felt.

"Me gorgeous. No." She replied in disbelief. "You're the amazing kisser with all the experience, I only kissed Victor before you." She started to blush.

"Oh you did now; did you." It was evident he was being playful. She nodded. "You are gorgeous and you know it. You're beautiful too." She blushed even more now and he could see it. He could see how happy she was and so lent over and whispered quietly in her ear you're more beautiful than any veela. She beamed from ear to ear and blushed so much you could have compared her to a tomato.

"Well you're so handsome I can't take my eyes of you. You take my breath away."

"Like this?" He lent in again and did take her breath away, when she recovered and opened her eyes she realized how excellent a kisser he actually was and that she had never felt so relaxed and happy.

Ron on the other hand still thoroughly enjoying the experience felt rather uncomfortable as his cock had appeared to have hardened and he had no intentions on cumming whist fully dressed in his jeans in front of Hermione. He had had a realization though he was snogging Hermione granger. Actually, proper snogging her and enjoying it as well. He felt like shouting in victory but suppressed the urge to continue the kiss.

When, at long last, they broke apart. Ron suggested that Hermione go downstairs as he needed to do some tidying and that he'd be down in a minute. As she left she kissed Ron on the cheek and said, "See you later."

Ron needed to get rid of the stiffness in his crotch; after doing so started to tidy up and set it up all nicely to surprise Hermione.

Ginny asked Hermione "where have you been its been half an hour? And where's Ron?"

"Ron's just tidying his room and I'll tell you where I've been but we'll have to go somewhere more private."

"Ron's tidying his room, I'd like to see that. But yeah fine we can go in my room." Ginny raced upstairs intent on knowing Hermione's whereabouts for the last thirty minutes.

"Okay, so ME AND RON KISSED! Again." Hermione almost screamed in excitement. Ginny looked more intrigued than excited. "and he told me he loved me."

"Wait so did you just kiss once, twice I need to know the details. But please keep them short and sweet this is my brother we're talking about."

"We did some serious snogging Gin. And uhh it was so worth waiting for." Ginny's face turned sour but she soon recollected on her own experiences.

"Ok? When me and harry kissed for the first time it was quick and over way too fast; but he's made up for it."

"Yes, I remember; he didn't have to make it so public though; right in the middle of the common room."

"Yeah, well there was some serious snogging down by the lake after that." Ginny smirked as she remembered.

"Yes, I remember that as well, me and Ron took a walk up to the astronomy tower at the same time." As Ginny's face turned once again into suspicion but Hermione replied. "Oh you're filthy, nothing happened he wanted to spy on you two, and we were only there for two seconds anyway."

"You shouldn't have been looking anyway." She promptly wacked Hermione with a pillow and they laughed.

(Shouting) "Can you girls come and help me lay the table for dinner." Mrs. Weasley called from the bottom of the stairs.

"Ok, we'll be down in a sec." Ginny replied.

After dinner Hermione followed Ron to his room and her jaw dropped as she stepped inside. It was spotless, and there was a double bed where Ron's single used to stand. The room was filled with candlelight, like a date.

"Hermione are you going..." The end of Ginny's sentence seemed to fizzle away as her jaw dropped too at Ron's efforts. She left when he appeared out from the bathroom.

"You like it then?"

"Like it, I love it thank you and yes, yes a thousand times yes I will move into your room." She hugged him tightly and they shared another momentous kiss. It was Hermione's dreams come true. She had Ron and that was all she needed.

"Do you want me to turn around while you change?" Ron asked; he wasn't sure and so paused.

"No, its fine I love you and you love me you can watch me change if I can watch you."

"OK" He was nervous, he had only glimpsed what he could in all the years they had known each other.

She took her top off and unhooked her lacy pink bra to reveal her breasts. Ron's face stared in awe, she was so beautiful. She slipped her vest on and moved to her jeans. She undid the zip and pulled them off, she gripped the side of her underwear and pulled it off too. Ron's face turned from awe-stricken to star struck. She put on her pyjama bottoms and sat on the new double bed filling half the room.

"Your turn."

Ron seemed to awake from a deep sleep at this point, it would be the least he could do after she had mesmerized him. "Yeah, sorry must have drifted off."

"Without sleeping?" Hermione replied sarcastically.

"Yeah." He began to change ripping off his shirt to reveal rippling biceps and a six pack to die for - well according to Hermione anyway. He approached his jeans next; undoing the zip and sliding them off the same as Hermione had done minutes before. After dropping his pants to the floor, he was now standing completely naked in front of Hermione and she was impressed. Her gorgeous man was standing in front of her giving himself to her and her alone. She was in heaven.

For a couple of glorious seconds then it was over as he pulled on his pyjama shorts and joined Hermione under the duvet.

They lay side by side, hand in hand for minutes that seemed like hours. Neither of them wanted to express what they had thought of each other and soon after agreed they would keep that information to themselves.

"Ron, I was thinking we should keep us a secret, just until the right time. What do you think?"

"Yeah I like that idea, it means I don't have to share you with anyone." Hermione smiled at this thought. She had now turned to face him and the urge was unbearable he just looked so hot without a shirt on. She had to kiss him. He had beaten her to it.

They made out for a few minutes before realizing how tired they both were. Hermione turned around so they wouldn't get distracted and they could cuddle. Ron had both hands around her middle and Hermione could feel how erect Ron was getting so said:

"Night Ron, I love you."

"Love you too" Ron replied before peaceful silence kicked in and the two of them were as happy as two people can possibly be.

A week went by in a flash with the arrival of harry. He was pleased to be sharing with Ginny and you could hear all sorts of noises coming from their room at given times.
