Do not leave

"I made the bed, now I'll let you sleep," Hermione said, approaching him with the intention of wish him goodnight and exit the room. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek, meeting a sad and suffering look that she hated to see on his face.

"Do not leave," Ron whispered, holding her close.

"What?"
"Don't leave. I need you now," he repeated with confident voice. "I always need you," he continued, dipping his face in the notch of her neck.

"Stay with me," he prayed, touching lightly her skin with his lips.

"I'll stay."
