Chapter 7:

Hermione landed just outside the burrow's front door. She needed a minute to collect herself before she walked in. She wasn't sure what she was going to say but she knew what she had to do. Taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly, she walked in the door.

"Oh Hermione," Mrs. Weasley greeted.

"Hi Mrs. Weasley," Hermione said.

"What can I do for you?"

"Um actually, I was looking for Ginny,"

"In her room dear,"

"Thanks," Hermione slowly walked up to Ginny's room and knocked on the door. Ginny opened the door.

"Hermione!" She said, "I wasn't expecting you."

"I need to talk to you,"

"Oh, alright, come on in," Ginny led Hermione into her room and closed the door.

"Before you say anything," Hermione said, "I wanted to apologize for everything. I shouldn't have got mad at you when you were just telling me what happened or for coming over when you were just trying to stop Ron. You're a great friend and I'm sorry,"

"No I'm sorry," Ginny said, "I should've tied Ron down so he didn't try to come over," Hermione smiled.

"It wouldn't have stopped him,"

"So, what brings you here?"

"I need to speak with Ron but I don't know what to say,"

"Talk to me," Ginny said patting her bed.

"I've been thinking about it and… well Grace did kiss him first and even though he kissed her back and liked it… I'm going to give him a second chance. Only if he apologizes for almost blowing my secret,"

"He's already apologized a thousand times since he's been home… to me and Harry because we yelled at him for half an hour,"

"Is he in his room?"

"Yea, the doors locked and everything… but I'm sure you'll get it open," Hermione hugged her friend. "Thanks Gin,"

"Go to Ron, he needs you," Hermione broke apart and walked the steps to Ron's attic bedroom. Outside his room she took another deep breath before knocking on the door.

"Go away," mumbled Ron. Hermione sighed and pulled out her wand. She did a quick alhomora and the door unlocked.

"I said go away!" Ron roared, "I don't want to be bothered by anyone,"

"Not even me?" Hermione asked quietly. Ron looked up surprised from his bed.

"Hermione?"

"No, it's Voldemort,"

"Don't even joke about that, I don't want to go through all that again," he mumbled.

"Sorry," Hermione said.

"What are you doing here?"

"I have a proposition for you…"

"Ok," he said confused.

"I'm willing to forgive you for kissing my sister… but only if you apologize to me for almost blowing my secret with my friends,'

"Done… Mione, I really am sorry for almost giving away you're a witch. I had no idea your friends didn't know, although I suspected it, I didn't know for sure. Muggle just slipped out… I didn't mean it… really,"

"Thank you Ron," Hermione said, "I'm sorry for everything that happened because of my sister. I forgive you as well," Ron walked up to her and embraced her in a kiss. After a little bit they separated and hugged.

"It feels so good to be back in your arms," Ron whispered in her ear.

"I missed you Ron… and don't worry, my sister will pay the price for causing all this trouble." He grinned and kissed her forehead.

"I better get going, I didn't tell my mom I was going out."

"Alright,"

"Come over tomorrow?"

Ron grinned, "I'll be there," he kissed her good bye and Hermione apparted back home, feeling happier then ever.

When she arrived back home, her mother was waiting for her in the living room.

"Where have you been?"

"I'm sorry mom; I went to talk to Ron"

"You should've told me where you were going or at least left a note,"

"I know but it was a spur of the moment type thing, I just had to go see him."

"And what happened?"

"Well first I apologized to Ginny… and then I spoke with Ron. He apologize for almost telling Jackie and them I was a witch and I forgave him for kissing Grace and we're back together. He's coming over tomorrow."

"That's wonderful to hear dear," Mrs. Granger said, "You guys made such a cute couple I'd have hated for that to mess up,"

"Thanks mom,"

"Well, dinner will be ready in a bit,"

"Alright,"
