Ron sat up in his room. Everyone else had gone to sleep. Ron tried but he couldn't. He was thinking about Hermione. Hermione's hair, her voice, her body...all of her. Especially those lips he wished to kiss. But she would never fell the same way. Would she? ugh, I can't keep laying here. I need to get up, do something. Maybe I'll go downstairs to the Common Room and pace around a bit. If I do it here, I'll wake up Harry.

Hermione had been downstairs in the Common Room reading Hogwarts: A History. It was her favorite book but it was becoming very hard to concentrate. Something was bugging her but she didn't know what. What is wrong with her? Why can't she stop thinking about Ron? Why Ron of all people? Hmmm, maybe this means something...

Ron stood up and went downstairs. Only to find the one person on his mind...Hermione. She was reading ,of course.

"Hey Hermione" I say

"Oh, Ronald! "She jumps "You scarred me."

"Oh, sorry." I walk and sit opposite her.

"What are you doing up so late?" she asks

"Can't sleep..."because your all I think about..." You?"

"Same. So I thought I'd read a little bit"

"Oh."

They sat their in silence.

Why did he come down here? Why can't I stop thinking about him. Him. his smile, his hair, his freckles...ugh...his lips. Why won't he kiss me already? wait, do I want him to? Why wouldn't I? wait, what did I just think...?

She's so beautiful. Everything about her. Her hair, her eyes, the way her lips cringe up when she reads...but how do I kiss those lips? How...But what if she doesn't kiss back. AHHHHHH...I'm freaking out...ok just think...I GOT IT!

"Hermione?"

"Yes, Ronald?" She looks up from her book. I love hearing her say my name

"Can you do me a favor?'

She closes her book and puts it down. " What do you want me to do?"

When she said that, the little me in my head screamed with joy. This is my chance. I get up and move over to the fireplace.

"Come stand over here." I motion towards myself. She gets up and walks over.

"Ok.."

"Now, Close your eyes."

" What?"

"Close your eyes."

"Why?"

"Because your doing me a favor. And because I want to try something."

"Fine." She closes her eyes." Now what?"

"Stand still." She complies

"Now what?"

"Don't move..."

He leans in and kisses her. She opens her eyes in shock and reaches for her wand but lowers it and closes her eyes again. Time stood still. Everything did. They didn't move. Lips frozen. It just felt so right neither of them wanted to move. When they broke, there was silence.

'Ron, can you do me a favor?" She asks

"Uh, sure." He says nervously, afraid she's gana hex him or something.

"Kiss me again.." She says.

He leans in again. This time, wrapping his hands around her waist. Her hands went around his neck into his hair. They kissed, moving their lips in sync, exploring the newfound territory. After who-knows-how-long, they separate.

"Hermione..."Ron starts

"Ronald..."Hermione mocks

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes..." With that one word, she was pulled into another breath-taking kiss.
