A/N: I guess this has loads of fluff. I was in a fluffy mood when I first made dis. I'm not particularly happy with this, but it's all up to you guys. : R&R please!

Ron raced out the large castle he called his second home. He breathed unevenly and though his lungs and legs were burning with pain, he refused to stop; not until his love was safe in his arms.

"HERMIONE!!"

The brunette sprinted away towards the lake in a blur. The gathering storm clouds thundered and shone bright for a second.

"WAIT! HERMIONE!" Ron put on an extra spurt of speed into his step and was soon behind Hermione. He could see her face, twisted with emotions; her pride refusing her to shed a single tear. The red head put a single hand on her shoulder which made her jump in surprise.

"Go away, Ron." She spat her eyes filled with hurt and fury, "I don't want to have anything to do with you."

"But, 'Mione. It wasn't like that." He reassured the grip on her shoulder tightening. Hermione shook her head wildly.

"That's what they all say!" She cried, her eyes blazing with anger. A small shriek of surprise came from Hermione, as Ron kissed her softly on the lips.

"Now do you believe me? I wasn't doing anything with Lavender. I just needed help with my present." The male stated. Hermione was in a daze, her fingers tracing softly over her lips.

"Present?" She distractedly murmured. He nodded and pulled out a small box from his jacket pocket. Handing it to his long time crush, he blushed.

She took it from him, eyes widening with each moment that passed.

"Hermione," He said while she opened the small package, "Will you be my girlfriend?"
A gold band was set snugly in the velvet cushion, the words "I LOVE YOU" etched into it. Tears filled her eyes and a hand covered her mouth.

"Of course, Ron! YES!" She threw her arms around his neck, tears streaming down her face, in a tight embrace. That moment was when the rain fell, drenching them both with cold water. Ron smiled and twirled her around, happy that finally, his love was officially his.
