Moments in Time

Auhtor's Note: This will be a collection of one-shots and drabbles of moments between Ron and Hermione. They might be during Hogwarts, after Hogwarts, pre-battle, pre-epilogue etc!

None of them have any connection to each other. They each stand alone.

Title: Muggle Communications

Idea: Ron and Hermione chat the muggle way while being separated

Timeline: Summer after Hermione finishes school before returning to the Burrow moving out of her parent's house

roonilwazlib: er...Mione?

booksandcleverness: Ron! Hi! I'm here.

roonilwazlib: youre where?

roonilwazlib: IN there?

booksandcleverness: Well, in my house but I'm on the computer, talking to you

booksandcleverness: No, not in the computer, honestly

roonilwazlib: but how? is there someone...IN there, reading?

booksandcleverness: No, Ron. The computer recognizes what we're typing and sends it to the other person through the Internet... it's very complicated

roonilwazlib: but you can't hear me?

roonilwazlib: just read...me?

booksandcleverness: Yes, exactly. I'm reading what you're saying... same way you're reading what I'm saying.

booksandcleverness: Or typing, rather.

roonilwazlib: odd… why is my name bloody roonilwazlib? I am going to murder ginny… sodding sister of mine thinks shes funny

roonilwazlib: dad was bloody excited, Mione, I'm surprised he even let me...on? in? on here

booksandcleverness: On, yes. Yeah, Ginny mentioned in her owls that he was going mental over the computer... spending all of his time on it. I suppose she had a turn on it herself as well! Changed your name for you.

roonilwazlib: what else did ginny tell you? did she tell you that I miss you?

booksandcleverness: I don't think Ginny's a mind reader, Ron.

roonilwazlib: I reckon I've complained to her about missing you, though

booksandcleverness: Oh, well, she did mention complaining but she didn't tell me what about.

roonilwazlib: are you sure there's no way for me to stick my head in and see you?

booksandcleverness: Positive.

booksandcleverness: It's like writing owls but ten times faster

roonilwazlib: smashing these things in is better than quills, anyway

booksandcleverness: Smashing? Oh, you mean typing? Having trouble with it, are you?

roonilwazlib: erm, no trouble

booksandcleverness: Uh huh, sure. :)

roonilwazlib: what is that?!

booksandcleverness: It's a smiley face. There are little pictures you can use to show emotions.

roonilwazlib: no shite?

booksandcleverness: Language, Ron!

roonilwazlib: well it's not every day a yellow blob POPS out

booksandcleverness: It's a face, Ron, not a blob. There are different ones too... :) :D ;) :O

roonilwazlib: I think that one is trying to get it on with me

roonilwazlib: ...is that possible/

roonilwazlib: WHAT IS /

booksandcleverness: No, I don't think so. You're safe.

roonilwazlib: /

roonilwazlib: strange

booksandcleverness: Oh, honestly! You're like a kid using a wand for the first time.

roonilwazlib: /I/am/not/

booksandcleverness: You are too! And stop putting / between everything you type. It makes it very difficult to read.

roonilwazlib: sorry

booksandcleverness: Quite alright.

roonilwazlib: \

roonilwazlib: IT GOES THE OTHER WAY

booksandcleverness: Oh honestly! So according to Ginny you've been complaining non-stop to her... didn't realize it was about me though.

roonilwazlib: well, of course it's been about you

roonilwazlib: what's it been like, seven years since I saw you?

booksandcleverness: More like 4 days,Ron.

roonilwazlib: it feels like seven years

booksandcleverness: Yes, well, I can't spend every moment at the Burrow. My parents like to see me too, you know.

roonilwazlib: they don't seeing you as much as I do

roonilwazlib: er

roonilwazlib: enjoy

roonilwazlib: enjoying seeing you, 'Mione

booksandcleverness: You enjoy seeing me, do you? Why's that now?

roonilwazlib: why can't I cross things off here

roonilwazlib: must I really explain why I like seeing you Hermione? I thought you were the clever one

booksandcleverness: Suppose not.

roonilwazlib: the only person I have to kiss me is my mum

roonilwazlib: it gets a bit lonely

booksandcleverness: You could always kiss George... or Pig! I'm sure he'd endulge you.

booksandcleverness: *indulge

roonilwazlib: *! ******

booksandcleverness: Is that supposed to say something?

roonilwazlib: I'd rather kiss myself

roonilwazlib: no

roonilwazlib: I liked your *

roonilwazlib: what is that? *

booksandcleverness: Well, that's an option too. I'm sure you could kiss your mirror.

booksandcleverness: That is an asterisk. It's used to indicate you're making a correction.

roonilwazlib: I wish I could kiss you

booksandcleverness: (K) there

booksandcleverness: A virtual kiss.

roonilwazlib: er

roonilwazlib: nothing happened?

booksandcleverness: It's a picture of lips,

roonilwazlib. Oh, nevermind.

booksandcleverness: Are you really that bored? Hasn't Harry arrived yet?

roonilwazlib: yeah, Harry's here but he's always with ginny

booksandcleverness: I'm sure he's not ignoring you completely. You're still his best friend.

booksandcleverness: He wouldn't know Ginny if it weren't for you! Tell that to him.

roonilwazlib: you can tell him, Hermione

booksandcleverness: I will. When I arrive.

booksandcleverness: Which won't be for another week or so I'm afraid

roonilwazlib: well ack

roonilwazlib: I may have to just wander off in search of entertainment

roonilwazlib: I hear the lake is nice

roonilwazlib: care to swim when you arrive?

booksandcleverness: Sure, that sounds nice.

booksandcleverness: I'll bring my swimsuit.

roonilwazlib: what colour is it?

booksandcleverness: Um... yellow, I think. Well, I have a few in several colours.

booksandcleverness: Why do you ask?

roonilwazlib: you do realize that now I am going to be thinking of you wearing that

booksandcleverness: Yes, well, I don't think that could have been avoided.

roonilwazlib: would you be terribly upset if I said I didn't have a swimsuit?

booksandcleverness: I'd find that a bit hard to believe.

booksandcleverness: But I don't think I'd be upset, no.

roonilwazlib: we'll have to see if it fits...otherwise I fear I'd have to not wear anything

booksandcleverness: Well, it's not as if I haven't seen all that before.

roonilwazlib: is that some sort of...suggestion?

booksandcleverness: Just a fact. I've done more than look, actually. Well, you know that, don't you?

roonilwazlib: I know that you've done some very wicked things

booksandcleverness: You've been such a horrible influence on me over the years.

roonilwazlib: I really have

roonilwazlib: very terrible of me

booksandcleverness: Yes, quite. Horrible, really.

roonilwazlib: I should be sent to Azkaban

booksandcleverness: I don't think I'd like that very much, actually.

roonilwazlib: you'd have to learn to live without me, I'm afraid

booksandcleverness: Hmm, I may have to turn to someone for comfort. Perhaps Viktor is available.

roonilwazlib: the ruddy pumpkin head could never give you things that I can give you, so I'm afraid you're out of luck

booksandcleverness: Well, I don't know. He's very skilled on the Quidditch pitch so I'm sure he's skilled in other areas as well.

roonilwazlib: he lacks in certain areas, I hear

booksandcleverness: Does he? I hadn't heard that.

roonilwazlib: yep, comes up a bit...short

booksandcleverness: Well, then, I'll have to pass. I've had longer experiences and don't think I could go back.

roonilwazlib: and you much prefer than longer experience, yeah?

booksandcleverness: Mhmm, yes, I think so.

roonilwazlib: you only think so? well then, the moment I see you I'll have to reassure you

booksandcleverness: I'm not opposed to a bit of convincing.

roonilwazlib: just a bit, of course

booksandcleverness: Well, maybe a lot of convincing. It has been a while since I've been thoroughly

convinced.

roonilwazlib: I know just the cure for that, love

booksandcleverness: Do you?

roonilwazlib: it's been too bloody long, it will be a good convincing

booksandcleverness: Can't say I disagree, really.

roonilwazlib: will you let me convince you in a few different ways?

booksandcleverness: I think that might be necessary.

roonilwazlib: oh yeah?

roonilwazlib: required, is it?

booksandcleverness: Yes, definitely required.

roonilwazlib: you won't even know who krum is by the time I'm done with you

booksandcleverness: I don't doubt that. Sometimes I can't even remember who I am.

booksandcleverness: After you're done with me, that is.

roonilwazlib: that talented am I? lucky for you, I've been thinking about just how to keep you forgetting who you are

roonilwazlib: though I reckon it may take me a while to get done with you

booksandcleverness: That's one area where you don't need any tutoring whatsoever.

roonilwazlib: really?

booksandcleverness: Yes, really.

roonilwazlib: I seem to recall something from the past where you said the very same thing

roonilwazlib: even though I was probably complete rubbish at doing it for you

roonilwazlib: that first time, at least

booksandcleverness: Are you mental? I'll never forget that. It was incredible.

roonilwazlib: even though I was probably doing it wrong?

booksandcleverness: You weren't doing anything wrong, trust me.

roonilwazlib: I like to think i've improved that in department...and other departments close to that one

booksandcleverness: You're fishing for compliments, aren't you?

roonilwazlib: maaaaaybeee

roonilwazlib: or maybe I just miss you have I said that yet?

booksandcleverness: You have. And I miss you too.

roonilwazlib: are your parents well? they must be, getting to spend all this ruddy time with you

booksandcleverness: They're fine, yes. Busy working and everything.

roonilwazlib: so you're alone?

booksandcleverness: During the day, yes.

roonilwazlib: and what do you do?

booksandcleverness: When I'm home alone? I read, I watch the telly, I write owls to you, Ginny and Harry, I go for walks, I prepare applications for job positions.

roonilwazlib: that sounds erm...exciting

booksandcleverness: Not really. More relaxing, really.

roonilwazlib: ah relaxing, I take naps

booksandcleverness: You'd sleep all day if you could

booksandcleverness: Or eat

booksandcleverness: I'd rather be there with you to be honest

roonilwazlib: I'd never leave my bed in my mum didn't threaten to get rid of it

booksandcleverness: I'd never leave your bed either.

roonilwazlib: while I'm sleeping on the floor, of course

booksandcleverness: Not exactly what I was thinking.

roonilwazlib: But you know something?

booksandcleverness: What?

roonilwazlib: I reckon we don't have very much privacy at either of our homes

booksandcleverness: Well, yes, that's true. Between all the people in yours and my parents in mine... it
is hard to find privacy.

roonilwazlib: and as much as my orange sheets love having your...well body all over them, I've been
thinking

booksandcleverness: About?

roonilwazlib: us

roonilwazlib: and er

roonilwazlib: I mean

roonilwazlib: I have a solution?

roonilwazlib: well that's not a question

booksandcleverness: A solution? To the issue of privacy, you mean?

roonilwazlib: yes, to the issue of us never getting to really be alone

booksandcleverness: And what is this solution?

roonilwazlib: do you want to be alone with me like more than usual?

roonilwazlib: I need you to answer that

booksandcleverness: Of course I do. Don't I always?

roonilwazlib: then what do you think of...you and me and a flat?

roonilwazlib: I mean, living together

roonilwazlib: alone

booksandcleverness: You... what?

roonilwazlib: I mean

roonilwazlib: er

booksandcleverness: You want me to move in with you?

roonilwazlib: NOT HERE

roonilwazlib: i mean

roonilwazlib: not you moving into the burrow, that would be really crowded

roonilwazlib: doyouwanttogetaflat?

roonilwazlib: sorry forgot the spaces

booksandcleverness: You want to get a flat together? Really?

roonilwazlib: uh, yeah

roonilwazlib: if you want to

roonilwazlib: i mean, we could be alone

roonilwazlib: for the first time in...i dunno, a long while

booksandcleverness: Yes! Yes, I want to. Of course I want to!

roonilwazlib: really?

booksandcleverness: Yes!

roonilwazlib: just you and me?

booksandcleverness: Just you and me.

roonilwazlib: wow

booksandcleverness: I... Ron, you really want to do this? You know you can't just lock yourself in your
room if you want to avoid me if we're living together.

roonilwazlib: well I know

roonilwazlib: because it would be our bedroom Mione

roonilwazlib: I'll even...I dunno build you a huge bookshelf for your books too!

booksandcleverness: You... I love you, you know that? That sounds brilliant.

roonilwazlib: really?

roonilwazlib: then it's alright to feel really excited right now?

booksandcleverness: Perfectly alright.

roonilwazlib: if it's something that we're not just going to discuss and then forget about

booksandcleverness: No, no we'll definitely do this. We can go looking when I come to the Burrow.

roonilwazlib: so soon? merlin, Mione

booksandcleverness: Oh, I... did you not mean so soon? I'm sorry.

roonilwazlib: NO, that was a good reaction

roonilwazlib: I mean, a surprised reaction that you want to do the same thing I do

roonilwazlib: Ive been thinking about this since we last saw each other

roonilwazlib: because the thought of not seeing you every day...scared me

roonilwazlib: i mean we did enough of the being apart thing when you were at hogwarts right?

booksandcleverness: You were scared of not seeing me everyday?

roonilwazlib: yeah

roonilwazlib: we've barely been apart since were were eleven, yeah? Bit scary to think we would have to be separated again after everything with the war and all innit?

booksandcleverness: Yes, I agree. I don't enjoy being separated from you anymore either. And you're
absolutely sure? This is a big step, you know. I don't want you to regret taking it.

roonilwazlib: I could never regret being with you in any way

booksandcleverness: There you go again, saying such sweet things.

roonilwazlib: well, I mean it

booksandcleverness: And I love you.

roonilwazlib: I love you more

booksandcleverness: Doubt that.

roonilwazlib: it's true

booksandcleverness: Prove it.

roonilwazlib: I wish I could

booksandcleverness: I'm sure you could think of something.

booksandcleverness: Though asking me to live with you kind of did it.

roonilwazlib: I love you so much that crookshanks can sleep on our bed too

booksandcleverness: Well! That is a lot of love!

booksandcleverness: Our bed. Sounds nice.

roonilwazlib: unless you prefer twin beds of course

booksandcleverness: Um, no, that's alright.

roonilwazlib: or seperate rooms, even

roonilwazlib: or I could just reside on the couch, hm?

booksandcleverness: Don't even suggest it. You're not sleeping anywhere but next to me.

roonilwazlib: I like waking up and seeing you there

booksandcleverness: Do you?

roonilwazlib: now when I wake up its lonely

roonilwazlib: but not for long right?

booksandcleverness: Not for long.

booksandcleverness: How does your mother feel about us living together?

booksandcleverness: Have you told her?

roonilwazlib: erm, not really

roonilwazlib: but she shouldn't mind

roonilwazlib: you know she nearly flew through the bloody roof when I first owled her about us

booksandcleverness: In a good way or a bad way, Ron? That's an important detail.

roonilwazlib: Erm definitely good she was hugging me and crying about me growing up… thats a good reaction right?

Booksandcleverness: Yes, I believe it is. But still...Are you sure? Your Mum's very old-fashioned.

roonilwazlib: that she wouldn't approve of us living together?

booksandcleverness: I don't know. I get the impression she'd want us to be married before living together.

roonilwazlib: oh

booksandcleverness: Old-fashioned values and whatnot.

roonilwazlib: well, I mean

roonilwazlib: I'll talk to her

roonilwazlib: but it's...us, you know?

roonilwazlib: almost like harry and us living together, but not

roonilwazlib: harry living with us, I mean

booksandcleverness: I'm sure Harry and Ginny'll want to move in together as well.

roonilwazlib: mum may be slightly more put off by that

roonilwazlib: or nervous, rather

booksandcleverness: Ginny being her only and youngest girl, of course.

roonilwazlib: it's alright if I talk mum about this, right? and what about your parents?

roonilwazlib: I mean, they don't know me as much as my mum knows you

booksandcleverness: Yeah, that's just fine. I... I'll have to talk to them. I'm sure Dad won't be happy but
Mum will be thrilled.

booksandcleverness: We might have to have you come over and spend a bit of time with them before
telling them though.

roonilwazlib: that would be nice… your dad isnt going to murder me right?

roonilwazlib: even so, i mean, at least I'd be seeing you yeah?

roonilwazlib: though I suspect I'll get getting that...talk from your dad

booksandcleverness: Hmm, yes, he's mentioned wanting to talk to you a few times. But no, he won't
murder you, Ron.

booksandcleverness: He's not that bad, really. You'll be fine.

roonilwazlib: is it okay that I'm still terrified? reckon he would be skeptical of anyone you brought home right? the fact that he's met me before prolly wont help

booksandcleverness: He's a modern thinking man, of course, but a little more protective of me than my
mother, I should warn you. He may give you the inquisition to make sure you really do love me... he had a hard time believing I can be so in love at my age.

roonilwazlib: i just wont mention that ive seen you starkers... that should help right?

booksandcleverness: Oh honestly, Ronald, dont you dare bring up our sex life with my father! Do you
want him to slaughter you?! He'll see how much you love me and how much I love you and then he should warm up to you soon enough I should think. He's very protective of me.

roonilwazlib: I don't blame him really seeing as I have very protective parents as well...but you're an
only child, so I suppose that makes his protection even greater

roonilwazlib: but if you love me so much, I must be rather lovable, yeah?

booksandcleverness: Way to change the subject and fish for compliments again. But yes, you are very lovable.

roonilwazlib: hey, I have innocent intentions

booksandcleverness: You never have innocent intentions

roonilwazlib: lies, lies

booksandcleverness: Yes well when I finally arrive at the Burrow my intentions won't be so innocent either so I don't think I can comment on that at the moment.

roonilwazlib: will you let me show you how much I love you?

booksandcleverness: Several times over if you want to.

roonilwazlib: you know I want to

booksandcleverness: You know that treehouse in your backyard? The one down by the lake and almost
out of sight from the house?

roonilwazlib: hm, yeah, I think so? the one I used to hide in

roonilwazlib: I haven't been up there in ages

booksandcleverness: Well, I've always wanted to... you can show me how much you love me in there.

roonilwazlib: really?

roonilwazlib: I'll show you in every way possible how much I love you up there

roonilwazlib: you really do have the best ideas, too

booksandcleverness: Been thinking about that one for years, really. Well, it was snogging in there I used
to think about but that's changed to other things.

roonilwazlib: there will definitely be loads of snogging to make that other vision come true, too

roonilwazlib: I could snog you all night up there, really

booksandcleverness: Mmm, I'm looking forward to it.

booksandcleverness: No one ever goes up there anymore, do they?

booksandcleverness: It'd be private?

roonilwazlib: it's been abandoned, I suspect

roonilwazlib: Ginny probably forgot about it

roonilwazlib: but, for that night, we'll make it our temporary home, yeah?

booksandcleverness: Sounds lovely. I don't think I'll be able to think about anything else until then.

roonilwazlib: maybe you'll have a fantastic dream now

booksandcleverness: I always have those.

roonilwazlib: I'm going to plan every little thing I want to do to you

roonilwazlib: and snogging doesn't even begin to cover it

booksandcleverness: Merlin, we've been talking for hours!

roonilwazlib: and the compooter still hasn't exploded

booksandcleverness: Computer, Ron.

roonilwazlib: but, even if it's just over a compooter, I love talking to you

booksandcleverness: Easier than owls, isn't it?

roonilwazlib: very much so

roonilwazlib: it also has the /

booksandcleverness: What is with you and the /?

roonilwazlib: I don't know, really

roonilwazlib: fascinating

booksandcleverness: So are you at times.

roonilwazlib: not me

booksandcleverness: Know what just occurred to me?

roonilwazlib: tell me, tell me

booksandcleverness: My parents are at some function until tomorrow and I'm home alone and you can
apparate over here if you wanted to.

roonilwazlib: really?

roonilwazlib: and what makes you think I'd want to?

booksandcleverness: Oh, my mistake, sorry.

roonilwazlib: ;L

roonilwazlib: no that's not a face

roonilwazlib: ;J

roonilwazlib: LG

roonilwazlib: ;) ?

booksandcleverness: There it is.

roonilwazlib: look at it!

roonilwazlib: does this mean I'd get to see your childhood bedroom?

booksandcleverness: Oh, yes, I suppose you would. You've never seen it before? Oh, that's right, you
haven't. Nothing special really. Lots of books.

roonilwazlib: we'll have to make sure to get all those books when we...move, yeah?

booksandcleverness: Yes, I'd hate to leave them behind.

roonilwazlib: that would be quite upsetting

booksandcleverness: Every book I've ever owned is in this room.

roonilwazlib: when I come over we can read

booksandcleverness: Oh, yes, that's exactly what I planned to do with you.

roonilwazlib: well, I figured as much

roonilwazlib: one doesn't get invited over for anything other than reading

booksandcleverness: Especially not in the Granger household.

roonilwazlib: never once crossed my mind

booksandcleverness: Poor bed. It was expecting some company and now with all the reading going on,
it won't be getting any.

roonilwazlib: mm, did you mention a bed?

booksandcleverness: Well, I do have to sleep somewhere.

roonilwazlib: your bed, even?

roonilwazlib: I bet it smells like you

booksandcleverness: I would hope it didn't smell like someone else.

roonilwazlib: as would I, really

roonilwazlib: but I wouldn't want to upset your bed

roonilwazlib: it needs some attention

booksandcleverness: It certainly does. Very lonely bed, it is.

roonilwazlib: bet you look good sleeping in it

roonilwazlib: which sounds sort of...odd

roonilwazlib: but true, nonetheless

booksandcleverness: You know exactly what I look like when I sleep. You've seen me sleep.

roonilwazlib: I've watched you, too

roonilwazlib: does that sound creepy?

booksandcleverness: From anyone else, yes. From you, no.

roonilwazlib: you look beautiful when you sleep

booksandcleverness: How can anyone look beautiful when they're slobbering all over their pillow?

roonilwazlib: because you look...really peaceful, and happy

booksandcleverness: Now are you coming over here or what?

roonilwazlib: mm, yes, I think I am

roonilwazlib: I can't wait to see you

booksandcleverness: Well, the sooner you apparate the sooner you'll see me.

roonilwazlib: then I suppose I should just apparate now, hm? look for me

roonilwazlib: hopefully all my parts will stay intact

booksandcleverness: I certainly hope they will, I'll be needing them

roonilwazlib: merlin hermione saying things like that will make me lose concentration and apparate to
some jungle or worse, splinch myself!

booksandcleverness: Sorry! Hurry up then.

booksandcleverness: Ron?

booksandcleverness: … Ron?

roonilwazlib is inactive.

booksandcleverness: Oh honestly!
