Ron's Love Letter: Chapter One, Hermione Cancels a Date.

I love you as much as…Mum loves Dad.

"No way!" Ron thought, ripping the top of the parchment off and brushing it aside, starting yet again on a blank sheet that

was getting shorter and shorter.

I love you as much as a vampire loves bl-

"ICK!"

I love you as much as You-Know-Who loved his own sickly existence, the rotten—

"Erm, I don't think insults are very romantic, are they?" Ron asked aloud as Harry walked into the room. Ron was sitting at

his desk during lunch break, attempting to write a love letter to his girlfriend. And what a pathetic attempt it was.

"Not in a love letter," Harry said, glancing at the mess of parchment and ink blots on Ron's desk before settling down in his

own swivel chair, "but I imagine you'd get major points for standing up to Draco Malfoy for her in second year, resulting in

you belching slugs for a long period of time."

"Yech! Don't remind me!" Ron gagged, and the both of them chuckled at the memory.

"Back to work!" Harry exclaimed with a fake sort of cheery voice as the bell signaling the end of break gave a ring.

"Yeah!" Ron replied with just as sarcastic enthusiasm.

Later that day, Ron wiped away a single tear as he read Hermione's urgent owl.

"Dear Ron," It said in a hurried scrawl, "I know I said I could go to Hogsmeade for that festival this evening, but there's a

really big case going on and we need all hands on deck. I promise to let you know next time I'm not busy, and I'll take you

to one of those muggle picture films you want to see. I urge you to go to the festival anyways- have fun and tell me all that

happens! Love you so, Hermione."

Hermione worked as a lawyer for the ministry branch she founded, as well as managing it. Creatures and Rights

Department- commonly called 'CARD', not only protected elves, but goblins and mermaids and any other beast who

wanted it. It was a hard job, and Hermione was always busy. Occasionally – though rarely - she had to cancel a date. Ron

understood, but he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Tonight, he decided to listen to Hermione just this once…
