A/n: Oh my gosh! I'm SO sorry I haven't updated for such a long time now! I'm so sorry! Well, here is the 21st chapter…I hope you readers are still out there.
Chapter twenty one
"Well, at least you tried Ron. You really did." Ginny comforted her brother. "And I'm proud of you for doing so."
Ron didn't say anything. He felt like a failure. While Hermione was out there, suffering because she was too damn stubborn to accept the fact that he loved her.
"I think we should hit the sack now." Harry suggested. "It's getting pretty late. Besides, there's nothing else we could do at this time."
Ginny nodded. "Yeah I agree. We could think of something else to do tomorrow morning." Ginny gave Harry a peck on the lips and made her way up to her dormitory.
"Are you coming up, Ron?" Harry asked.
Ron shook his head. "No, not yet."
"Suit yourself." Harry told him and he went upstairs to the boys' dormitory.
It can't just end like this, Ron thought to himself. I have to do something. He got up and decided to pay Hermione another visit.

He loves me…well he said he did. He must've been high on something. Hermione thought to herself as she sat on her bed. That moment with Ron made her feel terrible. She stuck around to hear him defend her from the first years that insulted her. All that time, he had loved her. And it was so hard for her to accept it. I don't deserve Ron. He's too good for me. Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"Hermione! Someone here wants to see you." A female voice said.
"Tell them I'm sleeping." Hermione replied. "I'm not up for seeing anybody right now."
"But this person's very insistent!" The voice answered. "He said he would-"
"Hermione! Please I need to talk to you!" A masculine voice gasped at the door.
"R-Ron?" Hermione stuttered as she recognized his voice.
"How did you get in here?" The female asked suspiciously. Hermione stood up and rushed to the door and opened it.
"It's ok Beth. I'll talk to this gentleman." Hermione smiled.
"Uhh…ok sure." Beth said, looking confused and left Ron and Hermione alone.
"So…what are you doing here?" Hermione asked. "How did you get in anyway?"
"Somebody went in the room and I sneaked in wearing Harry's cloak." Ron smiled proudly. "I just came to tell you, I wasn't lying about what I said. I meant every word of it."
Hermione felt herself turn red. "I – I just don't know what to say. I guess I'm kind of overwhelmed, that's all."
Ron nodded understandingly. "I also wanted to let you know that if you need any help with uh…" he looked at Hermione's stomach. "Me, Harry and Ginny will always be here whenever you need us. Especially me."
Hermione didn't know what she was doing but it seemed like her mind just stopped working. She leaned forward and wrapped her arms around Ron. Ron put his hands around her waist and leaned forward to kiss her.
"I love you Ron. I only realized it a few days ago but I've loved you all along." Hermione confessed. "People told me you had feelings for me but I was too blind to believe it myself. But now I know that it's true. I love you Ronald Weasley."
And with that, they shared a long passionate kiss.
A/n: Sorry if it was so short! Thanks to all the reviewers! I'll update soon! Sorry it's just that it's summer vacation and I'm kinda lazy lol.
