Hi! So this a 505 word drabble in Ron's point of view, on how he thought how he and Hermione were meant together, but one night, looking at Harry and Hermione, starts analyzing Harry's and Hermione's relationship together, and concludes that he can never break through true love like Harry and Hermione's.

DISLCAIMER: I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters, creatures, things, and objects and locations that you recognize from the books, they all belong to J.K. Rowling.


I have always believed that Hermione and I were meant to be together.

Until now. Looking at the sight across from me.

I have been so busy analyzing my relationship with Hermione for six years, that I hardly even noticed the relationship between Harry and Hermione. I have always thought that Harry loved and cared for Hermione like a younger sister he had never had, and Hermione only cared and loved Harry as a lot younger surrogate mother hen. I guess I was wrong.

Now looking at the sight across from me, with Hermione on one of the many loveseat couches in the Gryffindor common room, reading a book, with her feet curled underneath her, and Harry lying his six foot frame across the rest of the couch, and his head on Hermione's legs, I can see that my assumptions of the relationship between Hermione and Harry weren't what I thought it was. Now, looking at this, I have thought back on the past six years of our friendship. Through our six years of friendship, I have noticed that every time Harry enters a room, Hermione's mood and eyes just brightens up. And every time when Harry is even around Hermione, he looks so carefree, as if he doesn't have to worry that a dark wizard is after his life. And how, every day, late at night, I can always find Harry and Hermione sitting near the barely burning fireplace in the common room, quietly whispering with each other.

Or maybe how Harry always protected Hermione through anything even if it meant risking his own life to protect hers.

Or maybe how Hermione always seems to be worrying about Harry, even if he's not in danger.

Or maybe how Harry would do almost anything for Hermione if she asked him to.

Or maybe how you can never find Hermione without Harry nearby, or Harry without Hermione nearby.

Or maybe even how, those two just constantly look out for each other.

Aren't those examples of love?

Maybe I didn't analyze Harry and Hermione's relationship quite as well, as how I analyzed Hermione's and mine.

Now looking at the solid evidence right in front of me, maybe Harry and Hermione are in love. Maybe it's not love, but the love that runs deeper than just ordinary love. Maybe it's true love is what Hermione feels for Harry, and Harry feels for Hermione. Maybe it's just time to move on, and stop believing that Hermione and I are meant to be together, because now seeing the kind of relationship the two has, I have realized, that you can never break true love between two people.

And I admit, even if I'm losing the one thing that I was nearly positive I can never lose to Harry, that I'm glad for my best friend. Harry deserves to be loved by someone like Hermione. And Hermione truly deserves to be loved by someone like Harry, for everything she is, not because of her beauty and brains, as I love her for.


So, I hope you like this drabble. Constructive critism welcome, flames and e.c.t. are going to be accepted as encouragements, not let-downs!
