Sorry that I haven't updated in a while. I was thinking of new ideas for the continuation of this story! Hopefully you all like it and please review!


Hermione's dad finally woke up from his coma and Ron went back to the Burrow to let everyone know what was going on. Ron went to his room to change and then apparated back to the hospital. When he walked back into the room, Hermione was sitting on the couch looking out the window. Hermione's mum was downstairs eating breakfast and Hermione's dad wasn't in the room which was quite a surprise. Hermione heard his footsteps and ran to him for a hug.

"Geesh Hermione!" Ron laughed.

"He's going to be ok! The doctors said that he should be able to go home maybe tomorrow, but he'll need to stay in bed rest for a couple more days." Hermione told Ron.

"That's great! Where is he anyway?" Ron said while looking around the room.

"The doctors are running a few more tests to make sure nothing is majorly wrong. By the way, I'm going to stay with my parents for one week, so you can go home when you want." Hermione said. Hermione saw the look on Ron's face and knew he wasn't happy.

"Ron, I haven't seen my parents in weeks and I want to stay with my dad to make sure he's alright. You understand right?" Hermione asked Ron.

"Of course I do. Sorry it's just it'll be extremely odd not having you there." Ron said with disappointment.

"Ronald, you survived almost a month without me before, you can surely survive a week without me." Hermione said. Hermione kissed the top of his nose and gave him a quick kiss.

"Yea, maybe I can try. But at least let me visit you in that week?" Ron said. Hermione laughed because Ron was so scared to be separated from her.

"RONALD WEASLEY! There will be a time in our lives when we can't be together ALL the time. But sure you can visit. I'll ask, besides you still need to meet my dad." Hermione laughed.

"Good." Ron said and gave Hermione a long deep kiss. They were interrupted by a knock on the door and it was Hermione's mum.

"Sorry, didn't mean to disturb. But Hermione your father's coming back to the room, everything looks alright and he can go right on home tomorrow!" Tanya Granger said.

"That's wonderful mum! Is dad awake still?" Hermione asked.

"Yes but he's still a little fuzzy. He should be fully recovered by tonight maybe. Well Ron how long are you staying, I mean I'm not kicking you out but are you planning on staying another night?" Tanya asked Ron.

"Oh well I'll probably leave tonight. I'll come visit when you guys get on home though." Ron said.

"That's very sweet Ronald. Again thank you so much for being here, it really means a lot to Hermione and me too of course." Tanya said to him.

"It's no problem at all. Well I'm going to go get some breakfast downstairs, do you both want anything?" Ron asked the girls. The both nodded no and Ron went off. Tanya turned to her daughter and said "Well he seems like a wonderful man Hermione. You did well honey." Tanya said while touching her daughter's arm.

"Thanks mom and yea he is. A great loving man. I'm glad I found him." Hermione said proudly.

"I'm glad as well. He loves you very much I could see it. You two are fantastic together. But I want to tell you this Hermione, whoever you come to marry, me and your dad will always be happy for you. And Ronald does seem like a good choice." Tanya said laughing. Hermione laughed as well and hugged her mother.

"Now all we got to do is introduce him to dad!" Hermione said.

"I'm sure your father would love him as much as I do!" Tanya said.


Ron left that night and got word immediately when Hermione and her parents were home. She said everything is going great and that it's her father's birthday in 5 days, and she wanted him to come down and meet him. Ron was flattered but yet nervous. He was meeting Hermione's dad. Would he like him? What if he hated him? He just hoped for the best as the next four days flew by.

Ron got ready on the day of the party and he wore a nice white dress shirt with a blue tie and dress pants. He wore the dress shoes that Hermione got for his birthday again and pulled his hair back with a little gel. He looked in the mirror and thought he looked pretty decent. He said goodbye to the family and apparated off. He appeared at the front of a beautiful light blue house with two floors. There was also a very long driveway which led to the garage. The windows were long rectangles and they had a nice patio going all around the house. There were flowers and balloons everywhere saying Happy Birthday, and Get Well Soon. He quickly made two bouquets of roses appear and proceeded towards the house. Ron walked into a room full of noise and laughter and cheers. Hermione noticed him right away and ran to him. She looked divine. She had a beautiful purple dress on with purple heels and her hair was pulled up in a bun.

"You made it!" Hermione said while running to him to embrace him in a deep long kiss.

"Yup I did. And these—"Ron pulled one bouquet of roses behind his back in front of her "are for you beautiful" Ron said. Hermione gasped at how beautiful the roses were and how sweet Ron was.

"Thank you love" Hermione said and gave him another kiss. They both walked towards the kitchen where Hermione's mum was and Ron handed her the other bouquet of roses.

"OH MY GOODNESS RON! Thank you so much you shouldn't have!" Tanya said then gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"It was no problem at all, thank you for inviting me Mrs. Granger." Ron said politely.

"It's our pleasure, we're all glad to have you here to celebrate with us. And please, call me Tanya." Tanya said. "Come on, Bob is over here with everyone else." Tanya said while leading them both towards the living room where everyone was chatting. Ron got nervous and even started to shake a little. Would her family like me? Ron thought in his head. Hermione felt him shaking and whispered in his ear "You'll be fine Ron. Don't worry."

Ron took a final breathe and went over and shook Hermione's family member's hand and introduced himself as Hermione's boyfriend. Finally, it came to Hermione's father. He went up to him and he was in a wheelchair.

"Hello Mr. Granger. I hope you're feeling well. I'm Ronald Weasley, Hermione's boyfriend." Ron said while shaking his hand. He waited for a response then Bob Granger said "Ahh Hermione's told me a lot about you. Well it's a pleasure to meet you Ronald. Sorry, this isn't the best way to meet someone, but I have no choice. Well thank you very much for coming. Sit, chat, eat, we're glad you could make it Ronald." Bob said. He sounded like a very nice man Ron thought.

Hermione walked over to him and said "See? You did fine." Hermione said and gave him another kiss.

The night proceeded with lots of laughter and eating. Ron sat down and really got to know Hermione's male cousins. They were all hilarious and all had a girlfriend.

"So how long have you and Hermione been together?" Hermione's cousin Brad said.

"Only a couple months, but it felt like it's been forever." Ron answered. The boys all nodded in agreement.

Hermione walked over after finishing talking with her girl cousins and sat right on his lap and kissed him.

"YEA RON!" the boys cheered. Ron and Hermione just both laughed.

"You did good cousin." Hermione's cousin Sam said to Hermione.

"Thank you. I am extremely lucky to have Ron!" Hermione said proudly. Ron couldn't help but smile. He could get used to this. Just then the door bell rang and Hermione went to answer it. Came in was an old man with a young man who was his son.

"Hello Mr. Mason!" Hermione said and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Hey Steve. Nice to see you" Hermione also gave him a kiss. Ron swore when they hugged, Steve tried to touch Hermione's butt, but tried not to think like that.

Hermione called her parents and they went to greet Mr. Mason and Steve. They all gathered around the living room and continued to have a good time. Ron noticed that Steve had come to sit right next to Hermione and was getting quite cozy. Steve better not be thinking of hitting on Hermione Ron thought. Ron watched as Hermione turned away from Ron and towards Steve and they began to talk like he wasn't even there. Ron felt so ignored, but again tried not to let it get to him. He definitely didn't want to make a scene. Ron excused himself and went to use the bathroom. When he returned, Hermione and Steve were sitting as close as ever. Steve was talking about to Hermione about something and Hermione definitely seemed interested. Her elbow was resting on the couch and she was laughing while Steve talked. They seemed like they both were flirting and Ron definitely did not like it. Ron was about to go up to them when Steve grabbed her hand and Hermione blushed. But Hermione pulled away and Steve touched her arm and hair. Ron was now furious. How could she do that to me? Ron thought. I'm such a bloody idiot for coming here. He couldn't stay here anymore. He ran out the door with a big slam and Hermione jumped. She excused herself and ran outside after him.

"RON WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" Hermione yelled as she saw Ron walk down the driveway.

"I'm leaving! WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK THERE IN THERE AND FLIRT WITH YOUR LITTLE LOVER STEVE!" Ron yelled. Hermione gasped at what he actually said. Ron continued walking down the street and Hermione took off her heels and ran after him.

"RONALD WEASLEY YOU STOP RIGHT NOW!" Hermione yelled as she reached him. She grabbed his arm and said "YOU THINK THAT ME AND STEVE ARE TOGETHER? HOW COULD YOU?"

"You think I didn't notice Hermione? You two were being all lovey dovey and you acted as if I wasn't even there! HOW COULD YOU? I LOVED YOU WITH ALL I HAD AND YOU GO AND DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?" Ron screamed.

"THAT WAS NOTHING IN THERE! WE WEREN'T EVEN FLIRTING! HE WAS TELLING ME ABOUT HIS TRIP TO AUSTRALIA!" Hermione said frustrated.

"REALLY? THEN WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT WHEN HE GRABBED YOUR HAND? YOU BLUSHED HERMIONE AFTER THAT! TELL ME HUH?" Ron said angrily.

Hermione did remember that he grabbed her hand but she pulled away. "I PULLED AWAY YOU BLOODY IDIOT! HE IS ONLY MY DAD'S CO WORKER'S SON! I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING FOR HIM I LOVE YOU RON! HOW COULD YOU EVEN THINK THAT?" Hermione screamed.

"No you don't. This whole night, you didn't even have a long conversation with me! You never looked at me like that! I shouldn't have come here! It was nice meeting your father though." Ron said. He continued to walk down the street and Hermione ran after him.

"YOU'RE JUST GOING TO WALK AWAY? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW TRUTH! YOU JUST LET THE IDEA GET INTO YOUR HEAD!" Hermione said.

"I KNOW ENOUGH TO SAY THAT YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T LOVE ME IN THE SAME WAY THAT YOU DO TO STEVE! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH YOU'VE HURT ME TONIGHT? I DON'T SEE YOU FOR FIVE DAYS AND THEN I SEE YOU FLIRT WITH ANOTHER GUY RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! THAT'S PROBABLY WHY YOU DIDN'T LET ME VISIT HUH? SO YOU CAN FLIRT WITH BLOODY STEVE!" Ron angrily shouted.

Hermione could not believe that Ron was actually saying this to her. They've had fights in the past but never one like this. "YOU REALLY ARE A BLOODY IDIOT RON! YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY BLINDED BY THE FACT THAT SOMEONE MIGHT ACTUALLY LIKE ME AS WELL! SO WHAT? I WASN'T FLIRTING WITH HIM THOUGH!"

"YES YOU DEFINITELY WERE! AND YOU LOVED IT! I'M DONE WITH THIS! I'M LEAVING! HAVE A NICE LIFE." Ron said and continued to walk some more. Hermione ran to him in another desperate attempt and grabbed his wrist, but only until Ron snapped and swung his hand out of Hermione's grasp. Hermione stepped away with a huge shock, Ron had never been so vicious and angry before. Hermione was already on the verge of tears.

"RONALD BILIUS WEASLEY YOU STOP RIGHT NOW!" Hermione cried. With that, Ron ignored her words and apparated off. Hermione walked back to the house in tears. It was like the horcrux hunt all over again. He promised that he'd never leave her again, and now it's happening. Maybe it wasn't meant to be Hermione thought. She wasn't going to fight with him anymore, if they were going to fight for the rest of their lives, then forget it. He wasn't worth going after. Hermione reached her patio and rested her shoes on the ground and wept and thought about what an idiot she was, to let Steve flirt with her like that, and how she didn't bother to stop him.

Hermione then went inside and flew through the people in the living room still full of tears, and went straight up to her room.

Ron arrived home and everyone was eating dinner.

"Dinner hun." Molly said. Ron ignored her and ran straight upstairs to his room and slammed the door. He took off his tie and threw it on the ground. It was only 7 at night, but Ron was exhausted. Both Ron and Hermione looked out their windows into the night sky and began to question whether their relationship was real and if they wanted to continue.
