Ron and Hermione were sitting in the common room, Ron was doing his potins essay, which was due tomorrow, and Hermione was reading a magazine.

"Hermione?" he said gently.

"Mmmm…" she said softly.

"Why aren't we fighting?" he asked.

"Don't you like the silence?" she replied.

"Yes, I do, but I was just wondering because we haven't fought at all this week."

"Maybe we are maturing or growing together?"

"We have been growing together for five and a half years and we have been maturing for two and a half years of that. It has to be something else."

"Yea…" she said her thoughts and voice trailing.

"Who do you like, 'Mione?" Ron asked suddenly.

"Someone who is brave, strong, kind, caring, but utterly thick at times and very stubborn and very hot!" she said, smiling and looking straight into his eyes. "The same question returned to you."

"Someone who is amazingly smart, kind, the look in her eyes when she's fighting is very hot, but frightening. She's caring, hot, brave and stubborn when she wants to be."

"Does she have a name?" asked Hermione.

"Of course, she does. Does he?"

"Of course. What's her name?"

"Hermione Granger," he blurted out, and blushed.

"Ronald Weasley," she said, as she got up and walked over to him.

"What?" Hermione just stood there, then put her hands on either armrest, then kissed him.

Ron sat in shock, but he's eyes were closed, so he didn't freak her out. After about a minute, Hermione pulled back and grinned and blushed. Ron just grabbed the back of her neck and bought their lips crashing together again. Ron moved his hands to her hips and pulled her onto his lap. Hermione squealed (I know she doesn't squeal, but hey!) and moved her arms around his neck and made herself more comfortable on Ron's lap which must have felt good to Ron because he moaned into Hermione's mouth.

They pulled away for some much needed air and for some reason everyone in Gryffindor decided to go into the common room at that second and saw Hermione on Ron's lap in a amore than friendly position.

"FINALLY!" shouted Dean, and everyone clapped and cheered.

Ron and Hermione slipped out of the common room and ran to the Room of Requirement, so they could sleep peacefully and in each other's arms.
