All righty then for you Ron haters this is your chapter… I had fun… that's really all I have to say. Sorry for taking so long, but at the moment I'm also working on a Harry Hermione story. So anyway here it is… just for you all. Thank you to my reviewers… please don't stop I love all of your comments.

Oh and by the way, longest chapter I ever wrote.

Hermione and Draco landed in the Fireplace of the Weasely's. They both found it odd that there was no one else in the room.

Hermione took Draco's hand, giving him a reassuring squeeze. She may have to face the prat Ron, but Draco would have to face Ginny, Ron, and Tonks. He didn't expect too much trouble from Remus because it had been Remus' suggestion to the Ministry that had got him into the MPA… and Harry and himself had already called a truce. What he didn't figure was the entire Weasly family, to which for some reason he remembered he was thinly connected to them through his mother's side, would be home and everyone would look at him with disgust.

When Hermione and Draco stepped into the kitchen the entire room went silent. Everyone was there before them, making their entrance quite the spectacle. Apparently Harry forgot to mention to everyone else that Draco would be the fourth boy…

Hermione quickly tried pulling their attention away from Draco…She was conveniently forgetting that her hand was clasped in his.

"Hello everyone… ohhh Molly that smells delicious, think there is room for two more at the table?"

Molly looked at them and nodded still at a loss for words. But the second Hermione began stepping toward the table, everyone started yelling at everyone else. Most of it was directed at Harry for inviting Draco, but Ron stood up looked directly at them and pulled his wand and pointing it at Draco.

Hermione caught this action and did the first thing that came to mind, she stepped in front of him.

This silenced the room a second time immediately. Most had expected Draco to pull his wand and curse Ron, or for them to go outside and dual. They expected Hermione to let go of Draco's hand and let Ron attack, but the last thing they expected was for Hermione to place her self in the line of danger… in front of Malfoy none the less.

"Hermione move… I'm going to blast the ferret the hell out of my house."

"Don't embarrass yourself Ron, everyone in this room knows that both Draco and myself could disarm you before you even thought of a spell."

Harry snickered followed by the twins. (A/N I miss Fred)

Everyone was watching this encounter, but Remus was watching it extra closely. He knew that Hermione resented Ron for sending her away. He figured that it would come to this sooner or later.

"Hermione… why are you protecting him. Its his fault that Dum.." but before Ron could finish his sentence Hermione cast Silencio on him.

"I do not want to get into this right now with you. When tonight is over if you really want to battle this all out fine by me… I've been waiting for a reason to dual you. But can we please eat in peace and get everything done with first."

Ron looked at her and then around the table. Everyone nodded, silently telling him to do as she said. Ron looked at her and Draco, who had been smiling before Ron brought up Dumbledore, now that Hermione was speaking again he was giving her his silent support. Ron watched him with hate before nodding.

Hermione gave a small smirk, that mirrored the one so often found on Draco's face, "Good… and if you say one more vial thing about Draco or his past actions, I swear I will levicorpus your ass and hang you from your window."

Molly coughed a little at her inappropriate language but thought it best to stay silent seeing how unfriendly Hermione seemed to be at the moment.

Harry gave Hermione a look that she knew meant only one thing, decided to start liking the prince's spells huh?

Hermione gave him a little glare, then lifted the spell from Ron. His wand arm had fallen to his side when she had silenced him, never being very good at non-verbal spells, but when she lifted the spell his arm shot up again. He barely got out "Stup…" before a flash of light from his left disarmed him, sending his wand flying directly at the caster of said Expelliarmus.

Harry caught the wand with ease, showing everyone just why he had been picked as seeker in his first year.

"You'll get this back later when you need it, for now sit down shut up and eat your meal." Harry said at him. Harry hadn't been pleased when Ron convinced Remus to send Hermione away, and knowing that it was for that reason that Hermione wasn't happy with Ron right now, he had to lend his support to her.

Molly looked around… "Well then, now that that's over, why don't you sit and eat a bite before you go off gallivanting around doing god knows what with the rest of them."

Hermione gave Molly an appreciative smile.

Draco and Hermione moved to the two seats next to Harry that had been left empty for them. Draco pulled the chair out for her before taking a seat himself.

Hermione smiled at everyone, especially the twins who had failed to stop laughing at Ron.

"This looks great Mrs. Weasly, much better than the food we have been scraping up over the last few weeks." Draco said smiling a genuine smile at Molly. He had to admit no one had ever stood up for him before, Hermione was the first person he had ever encountered who willingly placed herself in front of a wand pointed at him. It gave him quite a funny feeling in the pit of his stomach.

"…Uh… Thank you Draco…" Molly was flabbergasted, wasn't this the same boy that had tortured Harry Ron and Hermione for the last six years, had constantly referred to the Weasley's as blood traitors? Well maybe everyone deserved a second chance she decided.

Draco nodded and dug in.

Everyone quickly finished their dinner. Harry looked around and found that the six other people he needed were done with their food. "Come on guys… we better get going, if we are going to get this done tonight."

Hermione and Harry both stood up, followed by Draco and Ron, then Remus, Tonks and Ginny followed. Everyone followed Harry out to the yard of the burrow. There was a pink flamingo in the yard and Harry signaled for everyone to stand around it.

"This is the Portkey, everyone grab on."

Before anyone could think twice they were transported into what looked like an abandoned warehouse. Hermione quickly pulled the book out of her bag and handed it to Harry who smiled at her.

"OK everyone I need you to make a circle around the table, in this order, Myself. Hermione, Draco, Tonks, Remus, Ron, and Ginny."

Ron was giving Draco death glares the entire time. Harry caught this which, was the reason Ron was standing between Remus and Ginny, and not next to him and Hermione.

Harry conjured up a table in the middle of the circle and laid the earrings on it. Hermione took the opened book and lied it on the table. "In the order that we are standing in we each have to say a line of the spell, You'll notice that the there are two different colors of wording, that is indicating if a guy or a girl is supposed to be saying it, So it starts with me, and ends with Harry,"

Harry nodded, "We all have to be reading the entire spell but only one person at a time can be speaking, and each line has to be said immediately after the other as if it were one person reading it."

Everyone nodded around the circle. Hermione sent Harry a nod and then looked at Draco and gave him a small smile. "No matter what happens keep reading the spell… there can be… side effects. Just don't stop reading until it is done." Hermione said looking mostly at Draco and Ron.

Harry looked around, "Everyone ready… wands up…"

Hermione opened her mouth and started reading out loud, even as the first words left her tongue, she felt her energy draining from her entire body, she braced herself with her other hand as her line ended.

As Draco began his line of the incantation he realized why Hermione had braced herself on the table, and was forced to take the same action. When his line was done, it was all he could do to stay standing and read the rest of the spell in his head.

With each line read, each person joined the previous, bracing the arm not holding their wand on the table that the earrings sat. Each felt relief right around the corner as Harry began to speak.

When Harry was finished, they all joined in to read the final line, their voices chorusing together as dark blue light shot out of each of their wands and attacked the earrings. As they all spoke the final words, the sound of a child's blood curling scream pierced the room, and knocked them all to the ground.

Silence resounded around the room and Draco wondered if he was the only one still alive. Those thoughts were quickly dashed when he heard Harry ask, "Everyone alright?"

Collective groans came from around the circle as they all began to sit up.

It was Hermione that stood up first, and caught sight of the table. Where the earrings had once been now was only a small amount of dust and nothing more.

"It is done." Remus stated Gripping Tonks to his side in a hug.

Ginny moved to Harry and letting him wrap his arm around her, but when Hermione and Draco started toward each other, the table was blown into a trillion little pieces.

When the dust cleared Hermione saw exactly what had made the explosion, one very pissed off Ron, with a wand pointed directly at Draco.

"What the Fuck are you doing Ron?" Hermione asked him, Her hand gripping her wand, preparing to let out all of her aggression towards him.

"What we came here to do is done… we don't need him any more. I want to settle our earlier fight once and for all."

Draco took a step forward in order to face him. He moved to place a hand on Hermione's shoulder with the intention of telling her that he would fight this fight, but quickly moved his hand back when a jet of light left Ron's wand and nearly blew his hand off.

"DO. NOT. TOUCH. HER." Ron barked out at Draco.

"Ron you have no right to tell Draco not to touch me… your dating Luna Remember?" Hermione told him, trying to control her anger.

"So… Just because I'm not your boyfriend doesn't mean that he can be."

"What the fuck do you want me to do then Ron? Sit at home alone, pining after you while you and Harry go out and do the grown up work?" Hermione asked, as her eyes turned completely black with rage.

"Yes." Ron said. All of the other people gasped at his admission, and when Ron realized exactly what he said his hand came up and covered his mouth as his entire face turned red.

Hermione was furious, "How dare you! When we left school I poured my heart out to you, and told you exactly how I felt, and you told me that we couldn't be together because it was too dangerous. Then you made Remus send me away when everyone in this room knows that there is no way on this earth that you guys would have gotten this far with out me, for god sakes you've made Harry have to fire call me or show up on my doorstep at least once a week just to ask me questions, or for help with research. It would have been a hell of a lot easier if I had just been with you guys. Even the spell we used today, came from me, and my research. To top it off you decide that while its not safe to be with me, its plenty safe to be with Luna, and to keep her around, but tell me that I can't be with who I want to. According to you I can't be with you but I can't be with anyone else… Ronald Weasly tell me why the fuck I haven't kicked your ass!"

Harry grimaced when Hermione mentioned pushing her away to protect her. He had done that with Ginny before he realized that Ginny's support was something vital. He was just thankful that he hadn't screwed up nearly as bad as Ron had. He could see that this wasn't just some little thing to Hermione, in fact he would bet good money that Hermione might not ever fully forgive Ron.

Ron was stunned… He really had no response to that, "Well when you put it like that…"

"That is exactly how it is you sniveling little weasel." Hermione screamed at him.

Ron took a step back, "Just stop talking…"he said, before giving his wand a swish, that Hermione had taught him how to do, and sent the babbling curse straight at her.

Hermione quickly threw up a shield spell, which sent the spell flying off in another direction. Both Hermione and Draco didn't hesitate to attack then, Hermione sent Aguamenti at Ron, almost drowning Ron, while Draco thought it best to just send at Confundus charm at Ron.

The others had stepped back to give them room. They had all decided that Ron deserved every single hex and charm sent his way.

Hermione lifted the Aguamenti and made good on her earlier threat and cast Levicorpus, lifting Ron in his confused state, by his ankle. Draco animated Ron's shoelaces and tied his shoes to the rafters. Draco and Hermione realized that it really wasn't all that fun if Ron didn't know what was going on, so they lifted the Confundus, so that he could enjoy his state upside down from the rafters.

"Hermione let me down…."

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't just leave you up there. In my opinion you're not worthy to kiss the ground I walk on."

"Hermione… please…"

Hermione severed his shoelaces and allowed him to fall from the ceiling. She stopped his fall a few feet from the ground, suspended him in the air for a few seconds, before letting him drop to the ground.

Harry had watched this, had even moved forward to stop Ron from falling, but realized that Hermione would never really hurt Ron. He didn't try to stop any of it, knowing that Ron would probably be mad at him for not saving his ass, but he knew that there wasn't a single person in that room that would stop Hermione, there wasn't a single person right now what wanted to be on the other end of Hermione's wand.

Ron was on his knees looking up at Hermione. "Hermione… I… I'm… sorry…"

Hermione looked at him with disgust. "Ronald… look at me." She took a step forward and raised her wand pulling Ron to his feet. Ron looked sideways and found that his wand was still on the ground, but because he couldn't move anything but his head he turned his head back and looked Hermione in the eye.

"What felt for you at the end of seventh year is gone. I want you to know that. It is gone and it is not coming back. You do not run my life, and if I find out that you have tried to get me sent some where… its going to be a lot worse than this. You disgust me Ron. For your information I will date, and be with, whom ever the hell I want to. You lost your privilege to give me advice, or to ask me to wait for you, when you sent me away. You do not control my life… remember that Ron. And know that if I ever speak to you again… well then you'll be very lucky."

With that Hermione let her wand fall and she turned her back on Ron. She would later realize that it was good that she had because when she began to walk away Ron stood up and came at her, looking as if he was going to grab Hermione, but he never got that close.

Draco took a step forward and punched him in the face, knocking Ron out cold. Draco shook his fist out and then turned to the rest of the group, thinking that they were going to jump him for hitting Ron. Instead they all looked at Hermione and him and clapped.

Draco smiled… so this is what it felt like to have real friends…

Hermione moved towards Draco and he wrapped his arm around her. "Does anyone here have a problem with this?" he asked. Thinking that while Ron deserved what he got, they still might not want him to be with their golden girl. Draco focused on Harry and Remus. Harry because this was the golden boy, and this was her best friend. If Hermione valued anyone's opinion it would be Harry's. And Remus because it had been Remus that convinced the ministry to place him with Hermione, and he knew that Remus could get him pulled and put back into the hands of the ministry at any time.

Luckily after a few seconds both Harry and Remus smiled at him. They're respective girls following along.

Hermione smiled and leaned against Draco, "Lets get the hell out of here before he comes to."

Harry nodded and moved towards Ron, picking him up with the aid of Remus and moving toward the Portkey. They all placed their hands on it and were quickly transported back to the burrow. Remus and Harry took Ron up to his room, while the Ginny and Tonks went into the kitchen to whip up some dessert for everyone.

That left Draco and Hermione standing on the Weasly's lawn. Once Hermione was sure that everyone else was gone, she turned to Draco and wrapped her arms around his neck pressing her body against his, and kissed him. Draco growled into her mouth and responded.

Draco softly broke the kiss and looked down at her, "You are amazing."

Hermione smiled and took the hand that just a few minutes ago had knocked out Ron, and brought it to her lips. "Did it feel good?"

Draco smirked at her, "Probably just as good as when you did the same to me…"

Hermione laughed at this… "That good huh?"

"Yeah… that good."

So review… that would be great. I love you all, and I hoped you enjoyed this… tell me where you think this should go… maybe I'll take your advice
