A/N Hello…it's me again. And this is another one-shot except this time it's a song fic! Woot!

So I was inspired when I saw Enchanted a few weeks back and this song was playing during the ball scene. OMG it sounded perfect for Ron and Hermione. And seeing as I have yet to write a Ron/Hermione FF here it is! Hurray!

So I hope you like it and please Read and Review. THANKS!

Much love,

Victoria

So Close
By Victoria Anne Stauffer

……………………………………………………

The Great Hall was beautifully decorated. All of the long tables had been removed and replaced with smaller ones that sat around the edges of the room. Where the staff table once lied, stood a stage, with a band rocking out to the crazy loud music blasting from their instruments on top of it. Everything seemed to be perfect and everyone was having a fabulous time. Except for two people.

As the hour grew later the band on the stage slowed everything down, all the lights within the Great Hall dimming to a soft glow. A sweet slow song started to play; it was a beautiful song, but there was two people standing just outside the doors that didn't notice.

You're in my arms

And all the world is calm

"You should have asked me first then!"

The music playing on for only two

So close together

And when I'm with you

So close to feeling alive

"How was I supposed to know that someone had already asked you?! Him to be more exact." Ron pointed back into the great hall, anger spewing from his mouth as it shown from his eyes.

A life goes by

Romantic dreams must die

So I bid mine goodbye

and never knew

"Ugh! You never treat me like anything more than just one of your mates! What did you expect, that I was just going to sit around and wait for you to ask me. Or did you think that nobody would?!"

So close was waiting,

waiting here with you

And now forever I know

All that I wanted to hold you

So close

Having noticed his two friends arguing, Harry walked up to them from the dance floor.

"Guys, would you stop arguing for once and enjoy the dance? Please?" he pleaded.

Both Ron and Hermione turned away from each other just to glare at Harry for interrupting their tirade. However, unbeknownst to the two of them, Harry had been listening to the song that the band happened to be playing.

So close

to reaching that famous happy ending

Almost believing

this was not pretend

Harry shook his head and grabbed both of their hands and dragged them into the Great Hall, and forced them to sit down at a table.

"Would you two stop bickering for a moment and enjoy yourselves. We all could have been hanging out together and having a blast. Now sit here and listen to the music at least."

And now you're beside me

and look how far we've come

So far

we are

so close.

Harry then stormed off, quite frustrated with his friends and their constant bickering.

Hermione and Ron glared at Harry's back. But then Hermione turned to look at Ron and shook her head before slowly turned away from him. Ron stared at her back and then turned away from her and crossed his arms muttering about how stupid Krum was.

Neither one actually noticed the final words of the song the band had been playing as their friend had asked. Neither one listened.

How could I face the faceless days

If I should lose you now?

We're so close

To reaching that famous happy end

And almost believing this was not pretend

Let's go on dreaming for we know we are

So close

So close

And still so far
