I wasn't sure whether or not I should be happy that Ron and Lavender broke up. Of course this meant that if I built up the courage I could ask Ron out but the chances of that happening was very small. Also the chances of Ron saying yes to that question are even smaller then the chances of me asking the question.
I mean over the years I had grown taller, grown out my hair and filled out both top and bottom which made me slightly more confident, but Ron hadn't noticed. A few guys from Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff had noticed and asked me out, but they weren't Ron.
But one night during Prefect Rounds I became sure that Ron and Lavender breaking up was a great thing.
"Hermione can we stop and talk, please?" Ron asked.
"Uh, ok. What about?"
"Well, seeing as neither of us is dating would-"
"-You mean since you and Lavender broke up" I interrupted.
"Yes that's what I meant" He said sounding angry. "I was just wondering if-"
"If what?"
"Well if you'd let me finish you'd know by know. So, as I was saying Iwasjustwonderingifyouwouldliketogooutwithme?"
"I didn't catch that last part, sorry?" I questioned.
"I said I was just wondering if you would like to go out with me?"
I stood there, shocked. The love of my life had just asked me the very question I had longed to hear since the Yule ball in 4th year.
"Ok, I shouldn't have asked. Stupid idea. I just, you know, I'm going to, um." Ron said whilst blushing.
It wasn't until he started to walk away that I got my voice back and started running after him.
"Look, Hermione I'd like to just pretend this never happened, ok?"
"No"
"But, Hermi-"
I gave him a quick kiss on the lips which then turned into deeper, longer and more passionate kisses. Until I pulled away.
"So does this mean you want to go out with me?" Ron asked with that famous lopsided grin.
"Of course it does, but you and Lavender only broke up last night. So, perhaps we should keep this a secret, for a little while?" I suggested.
"That probably would be best. Well it's the 19th of March so we have a few months until end of term." he agreed "You know. We still have another hour of rounds, right?" He said whilst he wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
"Room of requirement?" I suggested, grinning.
So, what did you think? I'm thinking of adding more chapters to see what happens but not until I know people liked this so please review .
