Preparations (after 'Homecoming')
"Honestly Ronald, how do you expect your clothes to get cleaned if you stuff them under your bed?"
There was no response, which was a good thing seeing as she was alone.
Hermione was gathering clothes and supplies for their impending trip to Australia to find her parents. Despite only have been back to the Burrow a little over a week, Ron had managed to pile up enough laundry for a month. Or at least it seemed that way.
Collecting his dirty clothes, Hermione was on her knees looking under the bed for any strays when it caught her eye. Between the wall and the mattress was a book. "I wonder..."
She pulled it free and read the cover, "Loving the Modern Witch." This was the book he mentioned. Curiosity got the better of her and she began to flip through its pages. It looked like the whole first part was about respect. Oh, she liked this book. It became readily apparent the book was written by a man, since a section was titled, "Two: Respecting Her Emotions... no matter how barmy they might seem."
Continuing on, there was a page further on that was dog-eared. Surely he hasn't read all this way? Maybe this was the 'tongue sucking' page. She opened the book to the section. Oh. Oh, no, this certainly wasn't that. Oh. Oh my. As she read about female anatomy in regards to how to 'bring her to climax', heat began to pool in low in her belly. Details about licking and sucking and slipping fingers oh my! had her squeezing her legs together and biting her lip.
Sounds from the lower landing snapped her attention away from the book. In a moment of impulse she didn't want to analyze, Hermione grabbed her quill from the side table and jotted a note along the section header: "yes please."
She put the book back where she found it, and gathered up the laundry. As she negotiated the stairs she thought, I wonder if I got some post-it's, I could make some notes.
A/N: This drabble is dedicated to HalfASlug. We had a conversation about Hermione getting a hold of Ron's "sex book" and making notes using Post-it's; colour coordinated, of course. Though, I'm not sure which Ron would be more: 1) mortified Hermione had found and read his book (much less left him notes) or 2) fascinated by the self-sticking pieces of paper.
The chapter this drabble takes place after should be posted early next week. It's in its polishing stages.
Blah blah, J.K. Rowling, blah blah…
