Thanks again to all you who review... I know I sound like a broken record but I need to thank you guys!
Hermione and Ron were once again in their little cottage home and happy together. Hermione's bags lay forgotten on the floor, as they were both enveloped in a passionate kiss. Hermione broke free of his grasp and smiled at him seductively. She grabbed his hands and was about to lead him to their old room when Ron said,
"Hermione honey, I'd hate to be the voice of reason... especially right now," he glanced down the hall towards their room, "but, you really should break it off with Andrew before anything..." Ron cleared his throat uneasily, "happens between us." Hermione's smile faded but she knew Ron was right. She nodded and then wrapped her arms around him for one last kiss.
"Ron, can't I just stay here tonight and then I go back to tell Andrew in the morning?" Ron looked at her cautiously.
"I don't think we should... do anything though. As much as I would love to, I would give anything to be with you right now but I feel like it wouldn't be the right time. Not when you are still attached, even though you are attached to me at the same time."
"I know what you mean. I'll just sleep on the couch then." Hermione sat down on the couch and Ron said,
"Hell no, Hermione. I'll sleep out here and you can sleep in our old bed."
"Don't swear."
"Now is not the time for this..."
"Oh my God, when have you ever turned down an opportunity for a fight?" Hermione asked surprised at him.
"Well, right now I'm too tired and we really don't need to relieve any tension like we used to in Hogwarts. So I guess I'll just see you in the morning." Hermione really was displeased with the sleeping arrangements. And so was Ron but he felt like for once in his life he had to be responsible.
Hermione had tidied up their old room before she had gone to bed. With one swish of her wand and a mutter of a cleaning spell, the beautiful wooden floors had been waxed, the bed made fresh and everything had been dusted. She pointed at the old fireplace and she cleaned up the old ashes and made a fire. Hermione got into bed and glanced around the room. She had really missed this room. The old four poster bed was given to them as a wedding present because it was Mrs. Weasley's mother's antique. Hermione lied down on the cream sheets and she smelled Ron's pillow. She had missed that smell. It just made her feel so much love and she felt at home here. It was a feeling that she hadn't felt in two years. She muttered a spell and all the candles in the room went out and she was left in the darkness and missing Ron even though he was just beyond the door and down the little hall.
Ron sat on the couch with his head propped up on his hands. He couldn't believe the events of the day. First Hermione and the papers, and then Hermione realizing her mistake and wanting to stay with him. It was everything he had ever wished for. He had almost given up hope when she came back into his life. Ron wished with all his heart he could be with her in their room right now. But his conscience held him back. Even though Andrew was a snobby, ugly, stupid bloke, Ron knew what it felt like to lose Hermione. And that's the only reason he felt sorry for him.
The next morning didn't come soon enough. Hermione awoke to find Ron standing over her and she was shocked a little at her surroundings.
"Good morning, Hermione," Ron said softly as he set a tray on the table next to her.
"Good morning, Ron," Hermione smiled sleepily.
"I made you breakfast."
"Aww, you did?" Hermione sat up against the head board and Ron put the tray on her lap. He sat down on the bed while she ate. Ron was more than happy to watch her.
After breakfast Ron took the tray out and Hermione got dressed, she knew she'd have to go back and tell Andrew everything. She felt really guilty about calling the wedding off but she also felt guilty because she left Ron.
"Ron?" She called down the hall. He came to the room and she said, "I really have to go tell Andrew now. I'll be back later, ok?" Ron smiled and he went over to her to kiss her.
"I'll have all your stuff moved in by the time you get back, what's the directions to your flat?" Hermione smiled again and told him. The next moment, she apparated to Andrews' flat.
Sorry this was kinda a boring chapter, its just fluffy! Anyways, Andrews reaction next Chap.!
