So this is the first of many Ron and Hermione one shots, some are short and some long, it is probably best to look at each of them separately although some could be considered in the same universe, please review and if anyone wouldn't mind beta'in then please let me know in a review or PM, thanks :) Enjoy!
Love Potion
Hermione glanced at Ron, her so called best friend, who she had just finished, having another raging argument with, why did he under her skin the way he did, he infuriated her. How dare he call her a know it all, when that exact know it all had helped him pass all of his owls the previous year, and who was he to say that she shouldn't write to Viktor because 'he only wants one thing', he had no right to say who she should and should not be friends with, because that's all that herself and Viktor were; friends.
Harry and Ginny were sitting on the sofa next to the fire, they had just finished consoling Hermione and Ron respectively after their fight and were now finally enjoying time to themselves, when Lavender and Parvati, approached. Great, just what I need, a couple of bimbo's looking for the latest gossip about Harry, Ginny thought. The two sat down it front one them with a serious look on their face that neither Harry nor Ginny knew they were capable of. "We have a way to solve your problem," Lavender said.
"What problem?" Ginny asked confused bracing herself for the answer.
"We have a way to get Ron and Hermione together once and for all," Parvati said.
"Go on," Harry said despite Ginny's glares. However they both listened intently to their plan.
"You can't do that," Ginny said after she had listened to what they had to say.
"Why not, he already likes her, it will just make him act upon his feelings beside it will ware off on in a day, and they will be together and never find out," Lavender said.
"It's stupid," Ginny said.
"They will never trust us again if we let you do this, its poisoning Ron," Harry said.
"Oh lighten up, we won't do it if you think it's such a bad idea, it will only last for a day and he just needs an extra push, in the end they will both be happy, "Parvati said trying to unsuccessfully convince them. There was a long pause.
"No I agree with Ginny it's not a good idea," Harry said. The girls nodded and left.
"I think we made the right choice, imagine if they found out that we knew, they would kill us, with both their tempers we wouldn't stand a chance," Ginny said although she was known to have a temper herself, it nothing compared to Ron's when it involved Hermione. Ginny snuggled into Harry's chest but was rudely interrupted by yet another fight involving Ron and Hermione.
Lavender was getting bored with Ron and Hermione's fight not only did it mean that she could get no peace in the Gryffindor common room it also meant that she had to put up with a moody Hermione the rest of the night in her dormitory, Lavender had always fancied herself as a bit of a matchmaker, who cares if Harry and Ginny didn't like her plan, she would show them that it would work.
Lavender and Parvati, crept up to the sixth-year's boys dormitory (it was good job girls were trusted more than boys,) they placed the chocolates on Ron's bed then hid in a chest that was conveniently empty, they could only see partly through the key way but it was enough. The boys soon returned from the Great Hall after dinner and Ron soon saw the chocolates and started to eat them. The rest of the boys were busying themselves with other things and paid no attention to the chocolates. After a couple of hours the boys finally went to sleep, the girls crept out of the room and back to the common room, no one was in there.
"Oww my back," Parvati complained.
"Parvati you have to make sacrifices in order to be a good matchmaker," Lavender said. Parvati nodded. The love potion would take effect once Ron woke up. Lavender had stolen a bit of bit of Hermione's potion when they had to make love potions in class the other day, Slughorn had raved about her potion so it was bound to work. They would have to wait until tomorrow to notice the effects.
When Lavender and Parvati woke up the next morning they expected Ron and Hermione to be very lovey dovey, so when they walked into the common room to see the Golden trio acting perfectly normally around each other, they were very surprised. Ron was definitely not under the influence of the love potion, what had gone wrong? After a long school day Lavender and Parvati returned to their dormitory to see Hermione on her bed reading.
"Hermione," Parvati said.
"Yes," Hermione answered not looking up from her book.
"Do love potions always work?" Lavender asked. Hermione rolled her eyes; she couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor guy they were attempting to poison,
"Yes if you make them right," she hesitated, "there is one expectation if the person who receives the love potion is already in love with the person that they are meant to fall in love with then there would be no affect, but it must be true love, not a crush, or an infatuation," Hermione said then carried on reading her book.
Lavender and Parvati exchanged looks, well this definitely proved their point that Ron loved Hermione, she made the potion herself and Slughorn said it was good and they had seen Ron eat the chocolates. Ron must truly love Hermione, but they still weren't together and Lavender's efforts had failed she had sat in a chest for two hours with Parvati for no reason, she was very annoyed.
