One More Chance
Disclaimer: I don't own anything other than this story and its plot. Everything else is the product of the brilliant J.K. Rowling.
Author's Note: This is my first Ron/Hermione story and it was inspired by PinkyTheSnowman or better known as PrettyTeenWitch and the movie 'The Best Man' sort of. Maybe it was not the plot of the movie, but scenes from it. Anyway, I hope you all like it because I wrote it just for you!!!
Chapter 1: Oh my love
"Oh...oh...oh god Ron!"
"Damn, Mione...you feel so fucking good...oh...oh shit!!!" Ron shot his load into Hermione's quivering body and sighed contentedly.
"Ron, Ron get up! Come on we're gonna be late!" Harry hit Ron in his face with a pillow.
"Merlin, Harry, what the hell did you do that for. I was having the best dream. Mione and I were –
"Oh, I heard what you ad Mione were doing. Something that will happen only in dreams. You know haw she feels about sex. She's waiting for marriage."
"Yeah, I know. Thank Merlin we're getting married in two days. I know how important it is to her that we're virgins on our wedding night but sometimes it takes all my strength to not throw her over my shoulder and go somewhere and shag her senseless. She's so...irresistible." He puts on shirt instead of showering. They're late as it is.
Harry finishes tying his shoelaces. He was always wondering how Ron would take monogamy. "Come on mate, I don't tell you about me and Ginny, please don't tell me about you and Hermione.
"Ok, ok Mr. Holier-than-thou." Ron yawned and ran his fingers through his long orange-red locks. "And why the hell did you wake me up this early? What are we late for?"
"Ron you've got to be kidding me. Don't you remember? You, me, your fiancée, my girlfriend...we've got reservations for Scorpio's at 8?!"
"Well it's only 7:56" he said looking at his watch. "We can apparate; we've got plenty of time. DUH!"
Harry sighed loudly. Only Hermione could deal with Ron after he'd just woken up. "Scorpio's is in France remember, we're in England. Even though we can apparate it would take awhile. Merlin, you are impossible."
"No, you are. You have to be the only person I know who can turn an answer for a question into a lecture. Ha!!!"
"Oh, really. Well I'll have you know, you are the only person I know who can have a half hour nap into a full night's sleep. Come on Weasley, our ladies are waiting for us."
The apartment that Ron and Harry shared rang with a deafening crack as the twenty year olds apparated.
They arrived at Scorpio's at 8:00 sharp and saw their significant others sitting on a bench in front of the restaurant. Ron could see Hermione animatedly smiling and talking to Ginny. She was wearing a white dress with ruffles that hung high above her knees. Her hair was in soft loose curls and it fanned around her face giving her an angelic look.
"Mione" he shouted. Just looking at her brought back the memories of his dream and he instantly got an erection.
Hermione looked up from Ginny and saw her soon-to-be husband standing a few feet away grinning at her. He looked so handsome. He was wearing black pants, jacket and a blue tie and shirt the color of his eyes. She loved how he grew his red hair long. It touched the bottom of his neck and fell down into his eyes in soft wisps. "Hey, you" she said softly. She jumped off the bench and into his arms.
Ron kissed her and ran his arms up her sides. "You look so beautiful. Come on, let's go eat."
"Ahem. Ron did you forget someone?" reprimanded Ginny. "Namely your other best friend and your sister."
He looked at her with a smirk "Of course not Gin, hello." He gave her a hug and a kiss on her cheek before turning her over to Harry.
"Hi!" Ginny kissed her boyfriend of almost one year.
"Well Ron would you look at that" said Hermione. "Took you guys long enough to get together."
"Well I'm so sorry Hermione that some of us didn't fall in love with each other when we were still in school like you and Ron."
"I know." She laughed and her stomach growled. "Oh wow. I'm really hungry; let's go inside before all the food is gone" she joked.
Inside the restaurant
After being shown to their table, Ron pulled out Hermione's chair and quickly kissed her before she sat down.
"Oh God! Will you guys please cut it out? You're about to be married, you didn't just get together! Fight or something!!" Harry said sarcastically.
Ron was still kissing his love through Harry's speech but pulled away from her for a second to respond "Look Mr. Potter, nobody says anything when you're snogging Ginny every hour, on the hour so leave me and my wife-to-be alone!" He turned his body back towards Hermione and kissed her again. He then pulled away and stared into her tawny brown eyes with love and adoration "I can't wait to marry you baby. I love you with all my heart."
Hermione looked at him and smiled. "I love you too Ron."
All of a sudden, a glass of red wine fell onto Hermione's dress and its owner looked at the people situated around the table.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry" Lavender Brown looked up and opened her mouth as if she were stunned. "Ron...oh hah hah Harry and Ginny...Hermione. Oh, would you look at that. I'm sorry that got all over your pretty little dress, didn't it?" She smirked.
Hermione stared at Lavender in shock for a moment before getting up from the table and running to the back with the tears in her eyes running down her face.
Ginny was outraged. "What the hell is your problem, Lavender? You don't even apologize?! Of course not because you did that on purpose!!" She slapped Lavender across her face.
Lavender was about to hit Ginny back when Harry stepped in front of her and said "Do not touch my girlfriend." His voice was low and calm which meant he was very angry. "And I don't know who you think you are but you will stay away from my best friends. You tried to break them up when we were at Hogwarts but it didn't happen then and it is not going to happen now, so leave them alone.
He and Ginny left the table and went to the back after their friends. Lavender smoothed down her dress and rubbed her face which was shining red with a handprint imprinted across it. "That's where you're wrong Harry. I'm going to get Ron and there's nothing you, Ginny or especially Hermione can do about it. I'll make sure of that." She then left the restaurant, plotting.
Ron had not been listening to Ginny but had run after Hermione. At the back of the restaurant, he saw a waiter walking past him and said "Excuse me sir, I'm sorry to bother you but have you seen a young woman with long brown hair and a white dress come pass here?"
"Yes, I did. Just now as a matter of fact." He smiled at Ron courteously.
Ron was immediately relieved. She hadn't left the restaurant. "Good, where exactly did she go?"
"She went to the ladies room."
"Okay. Thank you sir." He ran to the bathroom door and started banging on it. "Mione...please come out. I don't think Lavender meant to do that. I think it was a mistake."
"A mistake" said a muffled voice "That was not a mistake. She meant to do that, that's the kind of person she is...oh why did this have to happen tonight. I wanted tonight to be perfect. ... Do you know how expensive this dress was? It cost me two week's salary just to get it.
"Mione, why did you pay that much for a dress? I would have paid for it, you know that." Ron and Harry were very successful Quidditch players for Puddlemere United. Ron was delighted to buy his parents a new home and his and Hermione's new house was being built and would be finished in a couple of months.
"I wanted to do this myself Ron. You always pay for everything even when you don't have to. This was something I wanted to do for you. Put on a dress I knew you'd love and spend some time with your and our friends before we get married. This night was supposed to be magical; nothing was supposed to go wrong but it did. So now I just want to go home.
"Love, are you sure? We can fix your dress. We can do magic you know." He tried as a last resort.
"Yes, Ron, I'm sure. I'd rather much spend some uninterrupted time with you." Ron looked up from where he was sitting on the floor and saw her standing in the bathroom's doorway.
A smile broke out on his face. "Oh really, what would we be do- Ginny" he said when he saw his sister and Harry run up "Where's Lavender?"
"That little bitch is gone now. Hermione are you okay?"
Hermione had just finished scourgifying her dress. "I'm fine now but we're gonna head out early okay?"
Harry and Ginny smiled at each other and Harry said "Okay...you guys behave okay and Ron you have to be home by 7 tomorrow."
"Alright, I'll be there on time. See you guys later." Ron walked up to Hermione, enclosed her hand in his and apparated to his apartment.
"I'm sorry the place looks like this but what can I say, guys live here" he said as he rushed around the living room tidying up as much as he could.
"It's fine Ron, your place always looks like this. I'm used to it by now" she said with a bit of cheekiness in her voice.
Ron walked over to her and put his arms around her waist. "But in two days, this will be our place and baby you're the neatest person in the world. You can't stand a mess."
Hermione laughed and gave him a big kiss on his cheek. "Shut up you big git...and order a pizza. I'm starving."
"Oh, Mrs. Weasley, aren't we being forceful!" He turned her around and ran his hands down he back lightly but roughly grabbed her arse.
Hermione reached and kissed him. "Not...until...Friday."
Ron kissed her harder and lifted her off the ground into his arms. He laid her down on the couch and rubbed his body against hers. Ron's hands were everywhere. In her hair, on her breasts and on her arse.
When he began to stroke her from inside her panties, she pulled out his hand and stopped kissing him. "Ron...wait...I ca-...I can't do this yet."
Ron was kissing her neck, her shoulders and any part of her face he could reach.
"Ron, I mean it stop!" Hermione forcefully pushed him away and jumped off of the couch.
"I'm sorry Hermione. I just got a little carried away." He looked down to the ground his face red with shame.
Sighing, Hermione sat down next to Ron, who was sitting upright, and said "Ron, I don't blame you. You're a male in the prime of your life and I'm not satisfying you."
"No, Mione" he began to protest.
"No, Ron, it's true and it's not fair to you. A part of me wants to make love to you now because it's getting harder and harder to say no and because I love you. But I want my virginity to be my wedding present to you. It would be a lot more special that way to me."
"Hermione, stop! You don't have to explain anything to me. I understand how important this is for you and I promise I'll wait as long as I have to."
Hermione looked uncertain. She turned so she was facing him and took his hands into hers saying "Are you sure you want to wait?" She nervously bit her lip.
He smiled warmly and softly kissed her lips. "Positive. I'll wait for you forever."
Ron pulled Hermione onto his chest and leaned back on the couch. All was silent between them as Ron rubbed the small of her back.
"Thank you" she said quietly. "You're welcome" he replied just as softly.
A couple more minutes of silence reigned until Hermione broke it by saying "I'm hungry!" impatiently.
Ron laughed warmly and kissed her on her forehead.
