Live unbruised, we are friends / and I'm sorry

Merlin, he was... possibly the most idiotic man to walk the Earth, Malfoy be damned.

Why had he said that to her? She was challenging and testy when she had gotten home, after a long day at the Ministry, and he made it worse.

No, his intention was never to hurt her, and yet he'd done just that.

Ron sighed.

How would he make this up to her? He was pants at apologies, romance, all of the stuff he was told birds like. Obviously, his wife wasn't just any bird, but he did know what she liked...

Maybe a book. Ron had no idea what she had and hadn't read, though...

He wouldn't be in this situation if he hadn't told Hermione to "put the bloody book down, work isn't a big deal, for Merlin's sake."

Er, yes. He really was thick, wasn't he? Clearly.

His wife was a very intelligent witch who put him on his toes, and while that was great sometimes (honest) Ginny had once told him he was as sharp as a loaf of bread.

Ron was currently inclined to agree.

He would make this up to her.
