Christmas Time at The Burrow

It was Christmas Eve in the Burrow. Mrs. Weasley had let Ron invite all of the dedicated DA members for Christmas. It was Harry, Ron and Hermione where all sitting on a couch, Ginny was writing a letter to Bill by the fire; even Luna Lovegood had come and was reading to Neville. Neville himself was listening intently with his head on Luna lap. As the firelight flickered and the snow fell the comfort between everyone deepened and everyone was soon relaxing in the living room.

This might be a fine time to give you a bit of background information on this scene. This is two years after Harry seventh year, but after Harry destroyed the 6th horcrux, Voldemort disappeared. Also The Burrow is particularly empty because Mr and Mrs. Weasley left for Romania with Bill to visit Charlie and the twins are living above their shop. At this particular moment Luna and Neville are going out and have been since November. Ginny and Harry are also going out (they got back together after the fifth horcrux) but Ron and Hermione are the only single people in this happy scene. Get my drift?

"Luna?" Luna looked down at Neville.

"Up in my room, I have this little plant you might like to see." Luna then got what Neville was suggesting,

"Can you show it to me?" Neville smiled and lead Luna upstairs. Harry and Ginny then decide to go for a moonlit walk outside in the snow, which left Hermione and Ron sitting in the living room alone.

"So what you wanna do?" Ron asked Hermione. He knew what he wanted to do but Hermione might not approve.

"I want to read Ron so kindly leave me alone," Hermione got up to move to a more comfortable position. 'It's now or never' thought Ron; this was his chance to show Hermione what should happen in their happy little trio.

'Time to put my plan into action,' thought Ron. So as Hermione was sitting down he slid over on the couch, tripping her over his feet. She landed in his lap and pretending to be surprised Ron jerked forward. With Hermione in his lap, his head went straight towards hers and his lips planted themselves firmly on Hermione's. He wrapped his arms tightly around her so she had no way to escape his kiss. But then something wonderful happened, she didn't try to hex him, she kissed back and then she pulled her arms free of his and wrapped them around his neck. He let one hand snake around her waist and pull her closer. They kissed passionately on that little red couch and soon they had been snogging non-stop for 5 mins.

Then Ron and Hermione heard someone say to the doorknob (the Mr. Weasley got it bewitched because you never know when a Death Eater will drop by), "Tempos Titus," they sprang apart like startled rabbits. When Harry and Ginny walked in they said nothing but looked at Hermione's tousled hair and Ron's very red face. Harry and Ginny walked by them up to the second level, but as Harry walked past he muttered, "About bloody time."

Ron then led Hermione back up to her room and gave her a good night kiss. In the morning they woke up and everyone got dressed. After they got dressed and went downstairs to open presents. Luna and Neville where already there and Harry and Ginny where kind of 'involved' in a rather long kiss under the mistletoe.

It was rather good as presents went. Neville gave Luna a pink mimblus mimbeltodia and she gave him a green radish that smelled like cats. Ginny gave Harry a gold broomstick compass and he gave her a diamond bracelet. But since Hermione had done all of her shopping before that very 'interesting' Christmas Eve she ended up giving Ron a book on Quittich; but when he gave her nothing back she kind of was a bit hurt. That was until Ron asked to see her alone.

"Okay Hermione," said Ron, with a very red face, after leading her into the kitchen, "I need to get this out, quickly so willyoumarryme?"

Hermione was confused, "what?"

Ron turned redder, "Will you marry me?" Then he remembered to kneel and fumbled with the ring.

Hermione stared at him and said, "I-I…
