Chapter fifteen
Ardent Affection
Ron lay there, with the girl of his dreams sleeping in his arms, contemplating. What was there to do? He wasn't superbly good at classes, he definitely wasn't prefect or head boy material, and he really couldn't do anything else special…
Quidditch…he thought to himself just as Hermione began to stir.
His face lit up. I'll try out for Quidditch! Why didn't I think of that before? What a good idea! They need a new keeper, Brandon Arwood dropped out this year because of his studies, so there's an opening! And Harry's captain, so even if there's a lot of competition, I've got connections…
The ideas were simply brewing in his head. He couldn't have been more excited! He was about to win over his love.
Ron closed his eyes again, and as he fell asleep again, Hermione awoke.
She opened her eyes to find Ron lying next to her, his arm around her waist. She looked around and saw that she was in the boys' dorm room, and she jumped a little. She knew she wasn't supposed to be in there, what if someone came in and saw them? Or worse, what if the others woke up and saw her there? She was going to make her escape. She glanced back down at Ron's sleeping form and smiled. Last night had meant so much to her. She wanted so badly to stay there with him, but she knew they'd both be mortally embarrassed if they were caught. After a few minutes she was finally convinced to tear herself away. She slowly slid out of the bed, moved the covers back over Ron, and leaned in and lightly kissed him on the neck. She silently tiptoed to the door and headed downstairs, with one more backward glance to her love.
