Chapter 7: Life is Good, For Now Anyway

            Ron and Hermione stood hugging in her living room. Hermione pulled away to look at Ron.

            "I'm so sorry about everything," She said.

            "What do you have to be sorry about?" he asked her, "I'm the one who left you here then came back expecting everything to be the same."

            "I know, I'm just sorry I didn't wait for you," She said burying her face in his shoulders.

            "But you did, for the first few years, you thought it would be easier to move on then face the reality that I was gone."

            "I never stopped thinking about you" She told him, taking his hand and leading him into the bedroom.

            "Whoa, don't you think it's a little soon for this, not that I'm complaining!" he yelled, kind of shocked that Hermione would sleep with him that quickly after making up.

            "Such a pervert" She said, "I want to show you something" She led him into the room and pulled something out of the top drawer of her nightstand. She handed him a shoebox.

            "What's this for?" He asked giving her a puzzled look.

            "Just open it," She said.

            Ron opened the box. In it were a few pictures of the gang during their Hogwarts years, some trinkets that she collected over the seven years they were at school, and the note Ron left her.

            "I can't believe you kept all of these things," he said pulling out the note. He noticed that the creases where it was folded were very worn out.

            "You promised you'd be back," she said motioning toward the note in his hands and tearing up slightly.

            "And I kept my promise, didn't I?" he said as he folded the note back up and put it back in the box.

            "I only whish it could have been sooner" she said taking the box from him and replacing it in her nightstand drawer.

            "I only wish you knew how sorry I was for leaving" He said taking her right hand in his.

            "You know I've wished for this moment for the past five years" he said looking into her brown eyes. "It's now or never" he thought as he leaned in and kissed her.

            "Now this is what love is" she thought as they kissed, holding each other in their arms.

            Ron took this as an advantage to slip his tongue into her mouth, shocking her slightly. They stood there kissing for a few minutes until they heard a loud pop in the living room.

            "What was that?" Hermione asked.

            "Who cares" Ron said still kissing her.

            "What if it's a robber" She said trying to stop herself from kissing him again.

            "Your safe with me" he said.

            "I still want to know what that noise was" she said removing Ron's hand from inside her shirt. He gave her puppy dog eyes as they walked to the front room of her apartment.

            "Harry what are you doing here?" She asked him surprised to find him standing in her living room.

            "I was here to put in a good word for Ron" He said "But I can see he doesn't need that" Harry said noting the lipstick on Ron's shirt collar. "Well I'm going to leave you two alone, I can see you're very busy" He said smirking.

            "Shut up Harry" Hermione said throwing a pillow from the couch at him. He apparated just in time and the pillow hit the wall with a thud.

            "Where were we?" Ron asked, grabbing Hermione and kissing her.

            Harry apparated into the Weasley living room, which was surprisingly empty at the moment. Wondering where Ginny was, he walked into the kitchen hoping to find her, but instead all he found was Fred and George sitting at the table fiddling with a new invention for Weasley Wizarding Wheezes. They both looked up when he walked in and said "hi Harry" simultaneously.

            "Hi Fred, George" he said to the twins.  "Is Ginny home"

            "Why do you want to know Harry?" they asked curiously" "Hoping for some 'alone time' with her?"

            "If you know what's good for you you'll shut up" Ginny said as she walked down the stairs and stood next to Harry.

            "The two of you better stop it or I'll tell mom about your new invention." Ginny said slyly.

            "You wouldn't" George said.

            "She doesn't even know what it is, do you Gin?" Fred said.

            "Do you really want to find out if I do or don't. I can go find mum right now if you want me to" She said in a don't mess with me tone.

            "Of all the underhanded things to do Ginny" George said in a dramatically betrayed way.

            They both wiped a tear from their eye and Fred said, "We've taught you well sis"

            "Well I'd love to stay and chat but Harry and I have some things we need to do" She said.

            "I'll bet you do" George said while Fred winked at Harry jokingly.

            Ginny grabbed Harry's arm and led him out of the kitchen toward couch in front of the fireplace. When they were seated and Ginny's head was rested on his shoulder Harry asked her something. "So what was their invention anyway?"

            "I haven't the slightest idea" she said, gazing into the fireplace.

            "I wonder where Ron and Hermione are?" Ginny said, thinking aloud.

            "Right now they're probably making out at Hermione's"

            "That's good," she said, "It's about time they made up."

            "Yeah soon enough it'll be like Ron never even left." Harry said, thinking about the day he found his letter from Ron.

            "That was a tough five years" Ginny said looking at Harry.

            "Yeah but he's home now" he said, "The gang's back together.
