Me:I don't own harry potter or any of the characters, I just own this story.

''where is he?" asked Mrs. Weasley worriedly." I don't know'' answered Ginny breathlessly.' I've looked for him everywhere, but I can't find him''. ''where's who?'' Hermione appeared looking worried too. ''Ron, we can't find him anywhere'' said Ginny. Hermione's heart began to beat fast.

" he can't be dead, can he? I mean, I saw him after the battle was over when we went to Dumbledore's office. Maybe he just wants to be alone for sometime, yeah that seems to be a good reason………WHO AM I KIDDING? I HAVE TO FIND HIM!!"

"HERMIONEEEEEEE" shouted Ginny for the fourth time. Hermione snapped out of her thoughts."W...What?" said Hermione absentmindedly." I said can you please go look for him again? Maybe I've missed some spots, Hogwarts is huge, you know'' Hermione was about to explode from happiness. Maybe when I find him we'll be alone & he'll tell me how he really feels for me!! ''okay, leave it to me" said Hermione. She ran to find the boy... no, the man she loved.

''okay, where should I look?" Hermione said to herself." when I'm sad & I want to be alone, I go to….. Ha, the astronomy tower!! She reached her destination after a few minutes of wandering in the halls of Hogwarts. She found somebody with flaming red hair. Thank God, here he is. His shoulders were shaking violently as he sat on the floor hugging his knees.

''Ron?'' she approached slowly, and then she put her hand on his shoulder." are you okay?"

The most stupid question I have ever asked, of course he isn't okay, his brother has just died, focus you idiot!!

No answer.

"Okay, can I sit?" Ron nodded not looking up at her.

She sat still looking worried.

-AWKWARD SILENCE-

"So" Hermione began. "Do you wanna talk?"

he mumbled something that she couldn't comprehend." excuse me?" she said looking confused." "I need you" he said more clearly after raising his head, his clear blue eyes met with her brown ones. And I love you! Thought Hermione who almost flying. But she was silent. Then after a moment she said in almost a whisper "and I'll be there for you whenever you need me" they both smiled. Then Ron's face fell. "damn it" he cursed under his breath.

"What's wrong?" asked Hermione concerned." what's bothering you?"

"YOU!"

What the hell? He had just said that he needed me, now he's saying that I'm bothering him? How have I fallen in love with that weirdo??

"Ron, what are you talking about?"

"EVERYTIME I TRY TO THINK ABOUT MY DEAD BROTHER I JUST HAPPEN TO THINK ABOUT YOU, YOU ALWAYS INVADE MY THOUGHTS!!"

Hermione was staring at him dumbfounded. "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS, I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU & YOU ARE JUST SHOUTING AT ME? UGH THIS IS TOO MUCH, I'M SO OUTTA HERE!!" she started to walk away, but Ron took her wrist in his hand and whispered" please don't leave me, I really need you" she turned around and stared at him." then why did you shout at me?" she asked in a small voice.

"You wanna know why?" she nodded. "Because of this"

he grabbed her and kissed her. God! Is this a dream? if it is, I don't want to wake up.

They broke apart.

"I love you" said Ron.

"I love you too" whispered Hermione who let some tears escape from her eyes.

"then why are you crying" asked Ron worriedly.

"tears of joy!" she smiled.

The end.
