It's Romantic! I Swear!

Ron laughed boisterously when he read the words on Hermione's Valentine card as he leaned over her shoulder during breakfast. " 'I count your eyelashes secretly. With every one, I whisper 'I love you'.' What kind of sap is this bloke! Hermione, this letter is too ridiculous to be true that I'm sure it's a prank. No respectable man would ever write something like this!"

"Stop that, Ron! Hermione," Ginny began as she peered over her other shoulder, "I think this admirer is definitely 'the One'. He's just in touch with his emotions, unlike some people I could mention."

"Oi! Look at how fancy his writing is! Who writes like that?" Ron pointed out, shaking his head at the fancy calligraphy. "No one. That's who."

"Or he just has legible writing! Not that you would know with that messy scrawl of yours!" Ginny argued, glaring menacingly at Ron. She crossed her arms in a huff. "Don't listen to anything Ron says. Find out who he is, I tell you!"

"But just look at it!" Ron cried out, pointing to another sappy line. " 'There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment. And my heart chose to fall for you?' Honestly, I couldn't think of anything more cheesier to write. Take it from me, 'Mione, I'm a man and I would never write or even imagine writing a letter like this."

"You're a man? I never noticed," Ginny snorted, her nose in the air as if looking down on Ron.

"Hey!-"

"Please, let me decide what I think," Hermione interrupted before this led to a full-out sibling war. This letter did make her heart pound, but she could also see Ron's point. Her admirer must be a romantic to write such lovely words. Merlin, even his writing was better than hers. "I do think this letter is sweet."

"Ha!" Ginny shouted, grinning victoriously. "I knew it."

"But I also think that it sounds too good to be true," Hermione commented, biting her lip in hesitance.

"And I told you!" Ron replied, smirking.

Hermione didn't know what to think about this letter.

"So, Blaise, you think she liked it?" Draco asked from the Slytherin table as he watched Hermione read his letter.

Blaise laughed, "Yes, mate, I think she will." He glanced at the Gryffindor table to see a dopey expression on the Weaslette and the laughing face of a Weasel. "Yes, Draco, your letter was perfect."

"The words just flowed out," Draco commented, applauding himself for his fabulous letter.
