It's time for another chapter of.............Sweet Home Hogsmeade! Anyways, thanks to the reviewers (again) and keep the reviews coming!
Ron and Hermione appeared in front of Andrew's flat door. Ron was visibly shaking from anger and enormous rage. Hermione noticed that he could barely knock the door without pounding on it. He let go of her hand when Andrew answered the door with a smile on his face until he saw Hermione and Ron's fist coming at him right at the nose. Ron hit Andrew hard and Andrew fell back into his flat and into a small table by the doorway which held a few books and some mail. The table smashed with Andrew's weight and the contents fell on his shoulders and lap. Ron walked in and picked Andrew up by the collar of his robe.
Ron wasn't a small man, either was Andrew and Andrew struggled to get out of Ron's grasp as best as he could.
"You bitch!" Andrew yelled while looking at Hermione. This increased Ron's anger and he let go of Andrew and punched Andrew in the stomach. Andrew was bent over gasping for air because the wind had been knocked out of him.
"Apologize to her!!" Ron shouted at Andrew. Andrew coughed but no apology was heard. "Damn you, apologize!" Ron repeated. Between gasps Andrew said,
"I'm *gasp* sorry *gasp* Hermione *gasp*" Ron had a small smile of satisfaction at seeing Andrew doubled over in pain. Andrew's nose dripped on his floor and he did something Hermione didn't expect. Andrew rose quickly and shoved Ron onto the wall. Ron hit the coat rack hard on his back and Andrew threw a punch at Ron in the eye. Hermione ran at Andrew and tried to get him off Ron. Andrew used a free arm to push Hermione onto the broken table. Ron's eye was cut and was beginning to blacken. Ron punched Andrew and he fell on the floor, he was knocked out.
Ron rushed over to where Hermione had hit the table and helped her up.
"Are you okay, honey?" Ron asked concerned.
"Yeah, I didn't hit that hard." Hermione rubbed her back lightly and then looked up at him. "Oh my god, your eye!" She reached up and lightly touched his eye and he winced in pain. "We better go Ron. I have to get something on your eye." Ron agreed and they left knocked out Andrew to apparate home.
Hermione put Ron to bed and she got some ice and put it on Ron's eye. His eye was quite swollen. Hermione felt so bad about Andrew getting to hit Ron that she told Ron that she was sorry.
"Sorry for what? You didn't do anything wrong."
"But- but if I wouldn't have let you go over there, he wouldn't have got a swing at you."
"Hermione, I'll be fine. I've had many black eyes before. Remember how often I'd get into fights with Malfoy over calling you a mud blood?" Hermione smiled at the recollection. She had sincerely enjoyed seeing Malfoy get beat up by an angry Ron whenever Malfoy hurt her feelings.
"Yeah, I remember. You've always had that temper problem."
"Oh, and your so free of having one yourself?"
"Of course." Ron laughed at her obvious lie. Ron thought that no woman on Earth had a worse temper than Hermione. And Hermione thought the same about Ron. "Well, I better let you sleep now." She started to get up from sitting next to him on the bed. Ron grabbed her arm,
"Don't go, Hermione. I've had to lie in this bed alone without you for two years, couldn't you stay in here with me now?" She smiled at him and said that there was nothing she would love better. She got in the bed and felt Ron's arms wrap around her, enveloping her in warmness. This feels so good, Hermione thought to herself as she felt Ron give her a kiss on the neck, and then on the cheek. Hermione rolled over and kissed him on the mouth. It was a kiss that lasted for minutes and was building in intensity.
Ron suddenly felt the room grow warmer and so did Hermione. The two years of separation only intensified with the built up passion they had since they had last seen each other. And so, Ron and Hermione spent a beautiful night together and they both realized even more how much they had missed being together.
Ron woke up the next morning to Hermione kissing him. It was a wonderful way to wake up. Ron opened his eyes sleepily and saw his 'Mione. Her hair disheveled everywhere and her eyes bright. She looked so beautiful. Suddenly she frowned,
"Ron, we need to tell your parents...my parents...and everyone else that we're back together." Ron's bliss feeling went away when he realized that his parents had grown a dislike towards Hermione for leaving him. Great, he thought, this is going to be a fun day with the in-laws.
