ONE-SHOT! RON X HERMIONE

First attempt on writing a story, it is based on Ron Weasley's POV towards Hermione during their Fourth Year. In this story, Ron expresses his feelings and thoughts towards her by writing her letters that would never (maybe) reach her.

Please pardon me for my atrocious English and terrible story concept.

I do not own any characters although I really do want to own Ron Weasley


Dear Hermione,

It's almost 3 o'clock in the morning now and here I am sitting in my bedroom listening to Harry, Dean, Seamus and Neville's snores while writing this letter that you'll never receive.

I just want to say that I'm really sorry for quarreling with you after the Yule Ball tonight.

I… I don't know what came over me but… But seeing you dancing with Krum makes me really frustrated! And maybe… jealous, yeah…

But honestly Hermione, I didn't mean to ask you to the ball only as a last resort.

I wanted to ask you for ages but I didn't have the courage to.
So when Krum asked you to be his partner, I have no one to blame but myself right?

I can't help but feel bloody jealous whenever you spend the whole time in the library with Krum.

When you said that he had been coming up the library every day just to try talk to you, I really felt like hexing him but I won't because I am no match for him.

The way he looks at you, the special smile he had only for you – it's really making me feel insecure about our… friendship.

Would our friendship be strong enough to not be affected by his presence?

When it comes down to it, I'm just a bloody coward for not being brave enough to tell you my feelings…
that I've fallen for you since the day I first saw you on the Hogwarts Express.

The way you speak, although you sounded really conceited at that moment, it somehow draws me to you.

And when you corrected me during Charms in our First Year, did you realize how adorable you sounded when you corrected me "It's LeviOsa, not LeviosAR"?

The feelings I had for you since I first saw you didn't change but increased over these years.

During our Second Year, when you were Petrified thanks to the damned Basilisk, I almost broke down infront of Harry.

But I couldn't.

I didn't want my feelings to be made known to anyone but myself.

I'm too unworthy to even have feelings for you.

After all, you're the most brilliant student of our year whereas I'm just another Weasley.

Besides, Fred and George would never stop making fun of me or even broadcast to the rest if they knew.

I don't think you'll ever like me either, with Harry around. Nobody in their right mind would choose me over Harry Potter if they had to make a choice.

So when Krum started being so close to you, I felt even more unworthy to carry a torch for you.

I mean – come on, it's Viktor-freaking-Durmstrang-Champion-Krum that we're talking about.

The Bulgarian National Quidditch team Seeker, the famous bloke with a huge fan club in Hogwarts.

I couldn't do anything and instead hurt you with my words; I'm such a horrible person.
I really hated myself so much whenever I said such nasty things to you.

Sorry, I'm really sorry, Hermione. I really want to be with you, I really want to have a happily-ever-after ending with you.

Loads of love,
Ron.
