Hi! I'm going to be offline for a couple of days so I thought I'd put up another chapter to make up for it. Thanks for reading! Ok, now when I'm talking about the Ron in the future I'm going to put a (f) by his name just so it doesn't get confusing.
"Remember, this is your reunion if you had admitted you loved Hermione."
Ron (f) was sitting across from Harry and Ginny,, who was wearing a beautiful ring, in the Great Hall. "I wonder where Hermione is." Said Harry.
"Yeah I wonder…" said Ron (f) looking around.
"She said she was coming." Said Ginny eyeing her ring.
"So you've talked to her?" ask Ron. He hadn't talked to her since they left Hogwarts.
"Yeah you?"
"NO, actually I haven't. So how is Hermione?"
Oh! She's doing great! She and— oh look! There she is!" Ron threw his head over to the direction Ginny was pointing at. Hermione walked in with someone familiar. "Victor Krum?! What's he doing here? Why is he with Hermione?" Ron surged with jealousy.
"You'll see…" said the Angel.
Hermione ran over to Ron, Harry, and Ginny. "Hi! I haven't seen the three of you forever! She took a seat next to Ron, and Victor sat beside her. "So how have you guys been? And congratulations to you and Harry on getting engaged!" she said to Ginny.
"Oh thank you!" replied Ginny. "Three months left to our wedding!" she smiled and kissed Harry on the cheek. "And congratulations to you and Victor!"
"Oh thanks Ginny!" A look of complete shock spread across Rons (f) face. He looked at Ginny. What?! He whispered. I'll tell you later! She mouthed back.
"WHAT?!" shouted Ron to the Angel. "HERMIONE IS GOING TO MARRY VICTOR?!"
The Angel looked back. "Well… only if you take back everything with Hermione."
"So wait, are you saying if I don't take it back I'll marry—?"
"I never said a thing!"
"So, Harry and I'll be back in a minute. We're just going to go say hi to Neville really quick!" Harry looked at Ginny, but she pulled him along.
"I'm going to go look for some drinks." Said Victor, not sure if he wanted to leave Hermione with Ron, but he did anyway.
"So… you and Victor are—er—engaged?"
"Yes, he asked me to marry him last night actually."
"Oh… well congratulations! You and Victor? Who'd of thought…"
Ron (f) forced a smile. He always thought he would marry Hermione… If he could ever tell her how he feels… There was an uncomfortable silence. Then someone walked up and sat right next to Ron. "Hi Ron! Sorry, I was talking to Dean. Oh hi Hermione! Oh! Nice ring! Who is it from?"
"Oh, um, Victor, Victor Krum."
"Oh really? Victor Krum? Well, I'm going to go talk to Parvati. Nice seeing you Hermione! See you later Ron!" she kissed him on the cheek and left. Hermione gave Ron the explain look.
"Me, and Lavender are—er—dating…" said (f) Ron, a little upset. "AND I'M DATEING LAVENDER?!" shouted Ron to the Angel.
"Oh, well… that's good to hear." Said Hermione trying to sound cheerful. "Well I'm going to go find Victor… nice seeing you! Send me an owl sometime! Bye!" Hermione got up and walked away. What was her problem?
Ron took a seat next to his future self. "Well, you're better off. Not sure about the Lavender thing but at least you didn't date Hermione."
"What? Better off?! You mean you dated Hermione?!" shouted (f) Ron.
"What? You heard me?! I thought he couldn't hear me!" said Ron to the Angel. The Angel just looked to the side and pretended not to hear him.
"What do you mean I'm better off? I'm not better off! Hermione never knew for sure how I felt about her! And now… now it's too late to do anything about it! You call that better off? "
"Yeah! I do! You didn't have to live through breaking up with her! Do you know how much that hurts? How much it eats you up inside? Knowing she doesn't love you anymore? Knowing that she never will? You are better off!"
"Listen! I don't care what you say! Never telling her how I feel, how I have felt for years and now knowing it's too late, one day too late to do anything about it…. And soon having to watch her marry Victor… You once had Hermione! I never have. The only person I've dated is Lavender. Lavender! It can't get worse than that! It can't…"
"Yes. It can. "
The room swirled and Ron was back on his bed. "Why did you have to drag me through that?" Ron sat on his bed.
The Angel seemed frustrated. "You still don't understand!"
"Yes! I do understand! I understand perfectly! I wish none of it ever happened! I don't want to be in pain any longer…"
"Don't you see? You were miserable when you hadn't told her! Can't you see?"
"You didn't convince me. Please… just take it all away…"
There was a long pause. "Ok, fine. I made you a deal. I'll take it all away. Your love for Hermione… Everything. You will never have loved her, and therefore never have gone through the pain of losing her. But let me remind you what you'll miss…"
Images flashed before Rons' eyes. Images of Hermione, or the two of them together… Playing chess… their first kiss… the 6th year Ball… the two of them laughing together… Hermione's smile…
"NO!" shouted Ron. "Please! No! Don't take it away! I—I want it back! Please… please don't take it away…please…" the Angel had disappeared. What had he done?
Hey! I hope you liked it! There is one chapter left. But what will it be about? Will Ron have lost his memories? Has he truly changed his mind for the better? Or is he doomed to be forever miserable and date Lavender? Ok sorry that was just fun to do. Please review! And thanks for reading!
