Disclaimer: Oh, how I love disclaimers. You would think because this is under fanfiction, copyrights and stuff would just be assumed. Ah, well. "The Promise" is a song by When in Rome (one hit wonder, but it's a very pretty song) (p.s. the lyrics will be in italics). Harry Potter characters and stuff are Rowlings. Idea and story is MINE!!!! Oh, yeah!!!!!!!

The Promise
Prologue

When you need a friend, don't look to a stranger.

Ron Weasley is not what someone would call the romantic type. But on the inside, he's all heart (he is after all a Pisces...^_^). Through out his time at Hogwarts, he never let his soft side shine through. That may be one of his biggest mistakes. Everyone had a new life now. Ron realized he had to let his guard down. He didn't want to be alone for the rest of his life. Granted he still had his friends, but everytime he saw them, his insides caved in from the pressure of his heart breaking. Ron has had dates. He's never actually been alone, but now it was time for something more. But only one thing could cure him of his longing. Only one person could save him. Luckily, that person was alone as well, but maybe not for long.
