Prologue
Ron could not believe what he overheard Hermione say. She liked him..she liked him liked him, just like he liked her. It was hard to believe but he had heard it with his own ears. But how would he present the possibility to her? He decided to ask Harry.
"Oh come on Ron, you know she likes you and all you need to do is ask her to go out with you."Harry said annoyed. He had been questioned about this many times and he always said the same thing, but this time Ron looked determined.
"Your'e right, I will," said Ron proudly.

Chapter One
The next morning Ron woke with a start. It was storming outside but that didn't ruin his good mood. He knew that today was the day and nothing was going to stop him. He felt that way all the way 'till breakfast. Everytime Hermione so much as looked at him he felt his ears turn red. Harry gave Ron a wink and left early to polish his broomstick. Hermione stood up and went to get her books for her first few classes.Ron rushed to be by her side.
"Hermione!....Hermione! Wait up!"
"Whats up?"Hermione asked.
"Ummm.....well I sorta....well...I kinda like.....overheard someone say...that...Oh what the heck I'll just ask you. Do you like me 'cause if you do will you go out with me?"Ron said quickly and immeadiatly looked down at his shoes. Hermione blushed.
"Yes, Ron. I do." Ron's ears turned redder than they already were.
" Really? You mean it?"
"Yes, do you?" asked Hermione cautiously.
" Yes me too." They finally made eye contact and Ron held out his hand and Hermione took it.

Chapter Two
Harry was in Potions, his most dreaded subject, and to make it worse he had it with Slytherins. Snape kept breathing down Harry's neck while he was working which was really getting to Harry. Potions was finally over and he headed to the Griffindor common room to get ready for dinner.
When he got there it was not empty. Ron and Hermione were already there. And they had obviously been there for a while for they were swimming in each others eyes.
"Hello?! Are you guys ready for dinner?"
"Sure, anytime," said Ron in a monotonuos voice.
"Guess not," Harry said to himself.
When Harry came back from his dormitory they were no longer swimming in each others eyes. They were sitting in a more lively common room having a quiet conversation which is very unusual for them.
"So I guess you guys are now officially a couple," Harry said rather amused.
"I know isn't that such a surprise?" Ron said sarcastically. That was the last real answer got from them the whole day.

Chapter Three
Hermione was absolutley loving being with Ron it had such perfect chemistry. She could tell Ron felt the same way. But even though she and Ron were happy she could tell Harry was starting to get jealous. That gave her an idea.
"Ron I have to go to the library!"
"Can I come?" Ron asked anxiously.
"Hurry up then!" Hermione exclaimed.
She finally found what she was looking for, "A Witches Matchmaking Guide to Love"by Lola MacAgrathy. "What do you need that for?" Ron asked suspiciously.
