Chapter 3 - Sweeter than Popcorn
The three young couples came back from the water and, almost instantly, Ron jumped off of his thoughts and started talking with the guys.
"The water was awesome! I can't believe we're really here! We have this house just for us for 1 entire month!" Said Harry excited.
"Yes. But I told you we have to be careful or my mom won't allow us to repeat the dose next year." Draco warned.
"Oh come on, Draco! We are not trolls. We are human beings with brains bigger than a peanut and we know what we can or cannot do." Said Pansy, trying to calm down Draco's concerns.
"Hey girls! What do you say if we get back to the house and take a bath before they decide to do it?" offered Luna.
The girls agreed and started to pack their stuff and walking back to the house that was just feet away and had a few step connecting with the sand.
"Men, this will be the best vacation ever! We are young, we have a house for a month, a private beach and girls. What more could we possibly want?" said Neville closing his eyes in amusement.
"More time? More girls?" answered Draco leaning back on his elbows.
After a good half-an-hour Harry noticed that Ron was looking down at the sand almost like a statue and was distracted with some thought that was not letting him enjoy that great time with his friends "What's up Ron? Are you ok, man? You look a bit away from here."
"Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking…" he said.
"Hmmm… Is it about a girl? You can tell us, you know… Is it about that other girl, what was her name? Vivian, isn't it? Are you dating her? Man, you've got to admit it… She's hot! She must be really good doing… You know…" Draco observed.
"No I don't. I don't know if she's good at… that. I dated her for one week. I couldn't be with her anymore." That girl could be the hottest girl he had ever met but every time she opened her mouth he had to resist the temptation to turn his back and walk away. The only thing she was able to talk was clothes and makeup. He may not be brilliant but he certainly didn't want someone who was even worst. He wanted someone who could teach him without being at school.
"Maybe it is better for us to go inside and take a bath. We could watch a movie with the girls after dinner. What do you think?" Neville asked.
All the boys agreed and started walking to the house. When they got there the girls were putting the towels in the balcony to let them dry with the soft and warm wind. They went to the showers and after forty minutes they were all in the kitchen starting to eat.
During dinner, they talked about how funny was to watch Harry fall from the back of Ron and how Draco screamed like a girl when Neville grabbed his ankle from under water and pretended to be a shark "AAAAH! Shark! He's eating my leg! Somebody help! Mommy!!!!!"
They finished dinner and the girls washed the dishes. It was the deal: if the boys cooked, girls should wash the dishes and vice versa.
When the girls finished they went to the living room and started to sit down when Harry suddenly asked "Where is the popcorn? You didn't bring the popcorn? Do you want to watch the movie WITHOUT POPCORN??? That's torture! Even worst than the Crutiatus curse!!! And you know how bad it can be!"
The girls rolled their eyes and then everybody started to laugh because of Harry's face. Hermione rose up from the couch and went to the kitchen to get the 'Oh-so-indispensible-popcorn'. After a couple of minutes she came back with a big bowl full of popcorn and sat down again.
"Popcorn, girls, lights off… I guess now we're ready. 3, 2, 1, Action!" Draco shouted as he clicked on the 'Play' button on the DVD remote. The film started and they were distracted for about an hour and a half, watching the romantic movie that was about a men and a woman who loved each other but they didn't know about it and it was like an impossible love because none of them had the courage to tell the other. The film ended with the love confessions and a passionate kiss.
All the couples in the room kissed at the same time as the movie. "Typical." Hermione though as she turned her face to see that Ron was looking straight at her. She blushed, but the dark room didn't allow anyone to see it. He smiled and she returned the smile, as she started to feel the butterflies in her stomach.
Suddenly, the lights were turned on and everybody started to stand up and walking to their rooms. It was almost midnight and they were tired because of all the fun they had.
The house was so big that each one of them could have a room to him or her self but they decided it was easier to just occupy two rooms, one for the girls and other for the boys.
It was almost 4 a.m. when Hermione woke up thirsty and went to the kitchen to have a glass of water. She went downstairs and she jumped almost a meter when she got there and found Ron sitting in a chair with his head supported with his hands. He was so distracted that he didn't see her coming. She went silently to the fridge and grabbed the bottle of water and spilled some of it into a glass.
Ron noticed her presence and silently rose from his chair. He approached her and stood there. Hermione finished the drink and turned to leave but her body was abruptly stopped as she hit his body.
"Oh… I'm sorry... I thought you didn't notice me and I didn't want to interrupt you…" she said as she tried to step back and was once again stopped but this time by the kitchen cabinet.
Ron stepped forward while looking straight into her eyes and said "I noticed you… And it wasn't today or yesterday…"
"What are you talking abou…" she was interrupted when Ron's lips crashed hers.
She wanted to fight but somehow her body wasn't letting her. It was making her do exactly the opposite. She slid her arms around Ron's neck while he pulled her closer with his hands on her waist. He started to deepen the kiss but her conscience started to come back to her mind. She opened her eyes and pushed him away.
"What the hell was that?" she asked him still a bit breathless from the kiss.
"Hermione… I'm sorry… I thought… I'm sorry… I don't even know what to… I'm sorry…" he said stepping away from her.
"Well… You're thoughts were wrong!" she yelled and walked back to her room.
Ron stood there for what seemed hours thinking how stupid that was and what could be the damages that this action would cause to their friendship. "What was I thinking??? Arghh!"
He gave up killing himself in dozens of ways on his mind and went to the boys' room waiting for the end of the world. He went to bed thinking how he could have done such stupid thing and how that stupid thing could have felt so good. Her lips felt so sweet... Sweeter than anything else... Sweeter than popcorn...
Hermione was feeling hot but she didn't know if it was because of the anger she felt or the kiss Ron gave her. In one hand she was cursing him because he could have ruined their relationship, but in the other hand he could have woke up some feeling that was hiding inside her. She fell asleep thinking how stupid Ron was but her dreams took her to how good kisser he was…
