Author's Note: I don't own any of these characters, please thank our queen JK Rowling for creating this world. I just want to thank you guys ahead of time for reviewing, because it really makes me excited to write and it lets me know if you guys like where I'm going with this. Here's Moment 1!
The warm rays started peaking through the windows of the common room. Ron and Hermione sat next to each other on their favorite squashy red sofa in silence. Ron sat awkwardly with his hands in his lap while he looked at every square inch of the room, except at Hermione. She was doing the same thing as he was, but she was biting her lip. They each would glance at each other, but not make eye contact. Both of them were thinking about the same thing- the kiss.
Their silence that lasted through the night, while they each sat at opposite ends of the sofa. They hadn't said more than a few meaningful words to one another, since Harry defeated Voldemort. But, each of them didn't know how to bring it up. Hermione was the first to break the silence, "Ron," she said at just above a whisper.
He looked at her carefully. He didn't know what to do, but trust her because he had no idea what to do next. Hermione held out her hand, looking for Ron to reciprocate. He followed her lead and grabbed hold of her hand.
She loosened her grip on Ron's hand because it was rather clammy, "Ron, I think we need to talk about things." This was all she could muster.
Ron raised his eyebrow evaluating the situation, he coughed and trying to play it cool he said, "Er…yeah, I think we should too".
Hermione noticed that Ron inched a bit closer to her, she moved closer to him. Neither one of them broke eye contact with each other. She felt her face growing warm. She tried not to focus on Ron staring at her. "Do you know what I want to talk about?" she asked nervously.
Ron nodded hesitantly, "I think so". His eyes wandered from hers and he counted the freckles across the bridge of her nose, and his eyes fell upon her lips and he froze.
"I just wanted you to know that I've wanted to do that for a really long time," she said blushing.
He snapped out of his trance, "Really?" he asked excitedly.
Hermione's smile brightened, "Yes, Ronald, I've wanted to do that for years, really."
Ron let out a deep breath of relief, "Hermione, you have absolutely no idea how long that I've wanted to do that."
They both inched closer together and breathing quickly, until Ron went in for their second kiss. It was sweet and soft. Hermione looked him straight in the eyes and he understood that they were together. Ron wrapped his arm around her and she rested her head on his shoulder. They fit together like two pieces of a puzzle and they felt all the tension vanish. And Ron finally felt like he was truly number one.
