A/n: I'm not abandoning the thought of a Sequel for "Why Can't I?", but I'm waiting for more reviews for it before I make the sequel ;)

Ch. 1:

They were supposed to be together. Everyone knew it, including them. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, the perfect couple. Why weren't they going out yet then?

"Ron, just ask her out already!" Harry urged his friend. He didn't understand why Ron hadn't made his move on Hermione. Everyone could tell that the two fancied each other.

"What if she rejects me?" Ron pouted. "Harry, I wouldn't be able to handle it if she said no!"

Harry sighed. "She won't say no. She's fancied you for ages! And remember, you've fancied her ever since first year."

Ron looked at the ground. Why is it so hard to convince myself to ask her! he wondered, ashamed at his nerves. It shouldn't be this hard! He looked at the ground. "What about you? Who do you fancy?"

Harry blushed. "No one," he lied, hoping that Ron would believe the lie.

"Mate, just tell me," Ron urged. "Common, I won't laugh."

"You might be mad..." Harry mumbled too quickly for Ron to catch what Harry said. "Ifancyyourlittlesister, andIreallyREaLLYfancyher." a/n: it's fun to right with all the words slammed together! hehehehe

"What was that, mate?" Ron asked, confused. "It sounded like you just said that you fancy Ginny! You can't fancy her, she's my sister!" Harry's face fell. "Oh Merlin... you do fancy her, don't you?"

Harry nodded sullenly. Why did I have to tell him? he wondered. I'll never be able to be with her now... Ron felt bad when he saw Harry's expression. "Harry..." he started. Harry looked at him. Ron sighed before continuing, "She's my sister, just don't hurt her okay?"

"You mean you'd be fine with me dating her?" Harry smiled so wide his cheeks hurt. Ron nodded. "Thank you! You have no idea how happy that makes me! I'm pretty sure 'Mione is talking to Ginny right now, so I'll have to wait to ask out Ginny. How about a game of wizard's chess?"

"Okay." The boys got out what they needed, and began to play.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Hermione was sitting on Ginny's bed. She and Ginny were talking about the guys. "Hey, 'Mione?" Ginny asked. "Do you think I should just give up on Harry?"

"I think he'll ask you out soon enough, Gin," Hermione assured her friend. "Have you seen how he acts around you?"

"What do you mean?"

Hermione laughed. "Gin, he can't talk around you! It's hilarious how jumbled his words come out. Also, he blushes a lot every time someone says your name."

Ginny's face lit up. "Really? I never noticed that... Hmm. Anyways, how are things with Ron?"

"He's still clueless. I think I should give up on him," Hermione sighed.

Ginny looked at her. "'Mione, are you really that oblivious? He is totally in love with you!"

"Yea, right..." Hermione said. "If he is so in love with me, then why hasn't he asked me out yet?"

"Because he is a bloody git," Ginny laughed, "and has no idea how to tell a girl he fancies them. The last time he fancied a girl, he tripped and broke her nose." Ginny collapsed to the ground, over come by laughter.

Hermione fell also. Ginny's laughter is contagious! Hermione concluded.

The girls calmed down just as Harry and Ron walked into the room. "H-hey, Ginny, can I... I mean... would you like to... I mean... walk?" Harry choked out. a/n: awwwww! Harry turned nearly the same colour as Ginny's hair as he realized what he said.

"Sure, Harry, I'd love to take a walk with you,' Ginny giggled. Hermione shot her a 'good luck!' look. Ginny just smiled as she casually grabbed Harry's hand.

"So... Mione..." Ron said, careful not to show how nervous he was getting. He stuffed his hands in his pockets.

"Yea, Ron?" Hermione had a feeling she knew what he was going to say.

"Um.. how about we go to the garden?" Ron suggested.

Hermione shrugged. "Okay, sure."

The pair walked down to the garden. There wasn't a peep between them, both were lost in their thoughts. When they reached the garden, they sat at a bench.

"Um... 'Mione? I want to tell you something. I've wanted to tell you for a while." Ron took a deep breath before continuing, "Hermione, I think I'm in lo-"

"HERMIONE!" Ginny called, running over. Harry followed her. "Guess what?"

Perfect timing, Hermione thought sarcastically. "What?"

"Harry asked me out, and I said yes!" Ginny shrieked, her excitement evident. Harry put his shoulder around his girlfriend and smiled.

Hermione smiled back. "Aw, congrats you guys!"

"So, what are you two doing?" Ginny asked, a mischievous glint in her eyes. Ron shot Harry a look.

"Hrm, Gin, let's go and leave these lovebirds alone," he said. He leaned in close to her. "Besides, I can think of something better we can do then listen to them," he whispered in her ear.

Ginny blushed. "Bye Ron, bye Hermione!" She dragged Harry away, thinking the same thing as he.

Once they were out of earshot, Hermione broke the silence. "As you were saying, Ron?"

Ron shoved his hands into his pockets. "Well... I... erm..." he stuttered.

Hermione laughed. "Just say it, Ron."

He took a deep breath. "I think I'm in love with you," he said quietly. He looked up at her. "And I hope you feel the same way. Hermione, will you go out with me?"

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Fred! George! Welcome back!" Molly Weasley cried as her sons apparated into the room.

"Hey, Mom," Fred answered. "It is-""

"So good-"

"To be-"

"Home," the twins said in unison.

Molly laughed. "You two can go on up to your room, dinner will be ready soon."

The boys walked up the stairs just as Hermione and Ron were walking down to go to the garden. Geoge looked at Hermione. Wow... he thought to himself. She has become even more beautiful than she was before. No, Ron likes her, you can't think like that. George sighed as he sat on his bed.

"What's wrong, George?" Fred asked, concerned.

"Nothing, I'm fine," George lied.

"Tell me, it's not good to not tell your twin things," Fred chided his brother.

"It's a long story Fred, you really don't want to know," George sighed.

"Oh, come one! George, we tell each other everything! I'm your twin, you will tell me one way or another!"

"Fine," George said after a few minutes of silence. "Well, you know Hermione?"

"Yea, what about her?"

"Well, I... I..." George began.

"You what?"

"I.. kind of fancy her. Quite a bit, actually," George admitted.

Fred was in shock. "Wow... since when?"

"Umm..." George thought about this for a moment before saying, "Third year?"

Fred's mouth fell open. "You've liked her since she was 11! Damn!"

George glared at his brother. "So?"

"It's just..." Fred was at loss for words. "I can't believe I never figured out that you liked her! How are you going to-" Fred went quiet. Never a good sign. "What about Ron? He's in love with her, and he's fancied her just as long as you have..."

George got a crestfallen look on his face as he looked at the ground. "I know... that's why I can't date Hermione. I'm not going to steal my brother's girl away from him. I'll get over her... eventually," he sighed.

"I hate to tell you this, George, but if you've liked her this long..." Fred started. "Mate, you are going to have a tough time getting over her."

"You think I don't know that?" George exclaimed. "I've been trying for years! I just end up fancying her even bloody more!" George put his face in his hands as Fred sat down on the bed next to him. "Fred, I don't know what to do. I don't want Ron to hate me, but I can't loose Hermione. I think... I think I'm in love with her."

Fred stood up. "Well, what are we going to do about this dilemma?"

A/n: the end of chappie 1! so how did you all like it? What will Fred and George do? Will Hermione say yes to Ron? I will update soon, promise! I have actually made an outline of what will happen in this story... I will TRY to thank every one individually in my chapters in this story, I didn't do that in my last story. As always, critisism is welcome! I'd rather not have flames, but if you must, that's fine! Quick question: what does AU mean? I've seen it on a lot of stories lately, just wondering what it is!

Yours' truly,

Kristan! hehehehe LMPLA!
