Enjoy!
Hermione enjoys a day in the sunshine.
Written for the LUDO Board Game Competition.
It was a gloriously sunny at the Burrow. It was the time of year when the green hills and valleys surrounding the crooked house were a stunning emerald and you smell the distinctive scent of wild flowers. The splendid sight made Hermione scowl.
It wasn't that she wasn't an outdoorsy person, but she would much rather be tucking into a nice, long book while drinking cool lemonade, than sitting on daisy fields and picking out cloud animals. How Hermione wished for it to rain, so she wouldn't have to be dragged off into the sunlight by Ron.
"You ready Hermione?" Ron called down the rickety stairs of the burrow. Hermione grumbled her reply.
"Good! I made Ginny help me set everything up."
"Set what up?" Hermione asked, walking to the base of the stairs. Ron ran down them, successfully dodging Weasley Wizard Weasley merchandise. He kissed her forehead and said, "It's a surprise."
"But can't we just stay inside?" Hermione whined like a four year old, but Ron was having none of it.
"Hermione Jean Granger. You have been submerged in your books for days now. You need some sun, and some time alone with me." Ron wrapped his arms around Hermione's waist and pulled her closer. "The Burrow is always so busy, I barely get to spend any time with you."
"Okay, okay," Hermione said, "but let me at least get changed into something more suitable. I don't think I will last long in this jumper."

Hermione's laugh filled the vast green space. Her and Ron had finished their (quite delicious) picnic and were now engaged in a game of tig and tag.
"Tig!" Ron shouted, grabbing Hermione by the waist and spinning her around. Hermione managed to turn her face around to see Ron smiling brightly at her. "See, I told you that you needed some sun," Ron said.
Hermione just stared at Ron, eyes filled with happiness and then kissed him, hoping that there will be more more days full of sunshine.
