The common room was quiet that evening. This was probably because it was eleven o'clock on Christmas Eve so everyone was in bed or at home for the holidays. Except for two 16 year olds, Hermione and Ron. Neither of them was talking, they were studying for a big potions test that would take place right after vacation.
After a couple minutes of studying Ron's mind began to stray away from potions to a certain bookworm, Hermione. God she looks so beautiful with the light of the fire dancing on her face. I wonder what it would be like to kiss-
"Why are you staring at me, Ron? asked Hermione.
"Oh…well you see I was….ummm…just…yeah." were the only words Ron was able to say. What was he supposed to say," Oh yea I love you Hermione." It's not that easy.
Hermione was use to this, it's happened a couple times before. Instead of dwelling on the issue she decided to go upstairs to bed. "Night Ronald" she said a she got up.
As she started to walk to the stairs she trip on a book that was left on the ground. Ron trying to be nice tried to catch her, except he just went down to the ground with her. Now, Ron was on top of Hermione alone in the common.
Blush had taken over each of their faces and made in so they each looked like a ripe tomato. Merlin, I he looks cute. Even if his hair does clash with his red face Hermione thought to herself.
Just as Ron was trying to get up Hermione put her arms around his neck, waiting for him to make the next move. Surprisingly Ron wasn't his usual daft self and kissed her. Not a sloppy boring kiss, but a passionate sweet kiss where neither on the people wanted to stop.
Once they pulled apart Ron had a goofy grin on his face and said the three words he's been wanting to say since fourth year.
"I love you, Hermione"
"I love you too Ron."
It was that easy.
