A Letter
"That greasy haired git!"
"Ron!"
"What Hermione he gave me a "T" on this essay"
"Still that is no way to talk about a teacher"
Ron gave a nod of agreement. He didn't really want to argue with Hermione right now. Especially not since he had the whole night planned to celebrate their one year anniversary. He didn't want to risk her being upset with him all night.
"So anyway Hermione you know what tonight is right"
She gave him an odd look.
He can't believe she forgot hand he remembered, he forgets everything.
"It's our one year anniversary"
"Is it really? It can't have been a year yet."
She checked her calendar, and sure enough right there in big bright red letters it said "one year anniversary".
"Oh Ron I'm so sorry I forgot."
"It's Ok."
"No I didn't even get you anything."
"Just meet me in the empty classroom on the 5th floor at eight."
"Ok" she agreed, feeling like the worst girlfriend ever.
"I really am sorry. It's just"
"Forget about it" Ron cut her off. "At least one of us remembered."
Smiling he kissed her on the head.
At eight that night Hermione left the common room and started walking to meet Ron, when a first year came running up to her.
"I was told to deliver this to you miss."
Shocked at being called Miss Hermione took the envelope that the first year was holding out for her. She took it and looked at it. It was addresses to her but it didn't say who it was from.
"Who asked you to deliver this?"
"Dunno" the first year replied as he walked away.
She put the envelope in her pocket and continued on her way.
When she arrived at the room Ron had mentioned she tried to open the door but it was locked.
"One minute" cane Ron's voice from the other side of the door.
When she was finally let into the room she saw a large banner across the far wall that said "I LOVE YOU HERMIONE" in big pink and red letters. There was also a table set for two with rose petals scattered around it.
"Shall we?" asked Ron as he grabbed Hermione's hand and led her to the table.
"What do you think?"
"It's amazing Ron! Did you do this all yourself?"
"Dobby helped a little."
Hermione scowled at him.
"He offered to help I didn't tell him too." Ron said quickly remembering how upset Hermione gets about house-elves. At that moment Dobby entered the room carrying two plates.
Hermione scowled at Ron again as Ron buried his face in his hands.
"Dobby I said you didn't have to bring the food in I would have done it."
"Dobby is wanting to sir." Dobby replied.
When Dobby left the room after putting the plates on the table Ron looked at Hermione and said "I really didn't ask him for help. I only asked if he knew of a place I could use instead of the room of requirements. And he started helping."
"Why didn't you use the room of requirements?"
"Snape has been using it a lot."
"I wonder why, he does have his office so why would he need the room of requirements?"
Ron decided that he should change the subject.
"I cooked the food myself" he said.
Hermione looked at him oddly, Ron never cooked she wasn't even aware he knew how.
"It's ok to eat, Dobby insisted on supervising" Ron said in reply to the look on Hermione's face.
After they finished eating they went to sit on the loveseat in front of the fire. Ron sat with his arm around Hermione as she leaned her head on his chest. They sat like this for some time before Hermione broke the silence.
"You know this is the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me"
"Really"
"Mmhmm"
Ron kissed the top of her head. She lifted her head of his chest and turned to face him. Then slowly she leaned forward and gently touched her lips to his. Ron placed his hand around the back of her neck and kissed her.
"Hermione"
"Yes Ron"
"I love you"
"I love you too"
"No I really love you"
Ron lifted himself off the love seat onto the floor and got on one knee; he pulled a little black box from his pocket and opened it, to reveal a small diamond ring.
"I love you Hermione Granger with all my heart. Will you please be mine?"
Hermione's heart stopped beating, she took a deep breath and got down on the floor in front of Ron, she put her arms around him neck and kissed him.
"Is that a yes then?"
"Yes" Hermione said with a grin then started kissing him furiously.
"Can I at least put the ring on your finger before you kiss me to death?"
Back in her dormitory later that night Hermione was lying on her bed looking at her shiny new engagement ring, and thinking about everything that had happened that night.
"I must be dreaming" she said to herself.
"About what?" a voice said.
Hermione about fell out of her bed she jumped so high.
"Ginny you scared me!"
"Sorry. What where you dreaming about?"
"Ron proposed" she said holding her hand out to Ginny.
"Seriously" she said examining the ring "I never thought he would do it, He talked about it, but I never thought he would do it. That was the ring Dad gave to Mum when he proposed to her too."
"I had better go to bed; it's been a long day."
"Ok good-night" Ginny replied as she left for her dormitory.
As Hermione undressed the envelope the first year had given her fell to the floor. She picked it up and examined it, she had forgotten about it. She tore open the envelope to reveal a folded letter she began to read:
Dear Miss Granger,
I must tell you that I have feelings for you that I can no longer keep to myself. I wish to see you some time in private. I cannot reveal myself to you just yet.
Please reply with a time and place to meet me. There is an owl outside your window please send your reply with him.
Hermione looked out her window and sure enough there was an owl sitting on the ledge looking at her. She quickly scribbled her reply:
8'oclock empty classroom 5th floor tomorrow
She tied the letter to the owls leg and it flew off. She watched it fly around the castle and out of sight.
