Hi! Ok, now that I've gotten past that last chapter I'm going to tell you that this fanfic is based on an episode of That 70's Show. I promise I was going to tell you so please don't think I was going to try to take the credit. I just didn't want to spoil the plot line for those who have seen the episode. (Ex. Ron's disicion.) I only saw the last five minuets of the show. (Eric arguing with himself at the reunion, and the Angel showing him the memories.) So, I hope you aren't mad or anything.
Just to make sure (which I'm probably just being paranoid) I explained it right, I'm going to tell you what exactly the Angel said he would take away. He was going to change the past so that Ron had never admitted that he had feelings for Hermione. Ok! Now that I've said all that, I'll continue.
He had once had Hermione… had held her in his arms. And now, more than ever, he did not want to lose her. He didn't want to loose the memories…but he had. The Angel was right. It was better to have love and lost, than to have never loved at all.
No, that wasn't what he wanted. He wanted to keep creating these memories, for forever. He didn't want it to end. He wanted to be with Hermione for the rest of his life.
Well what are you sitting here for? Said a familiar voice. He looked up and smiled. "Thank you!" he said. He still had his memories!
Ron ran out of his dormitory and down to the common room, desperately hoping to find Hermione, but she was nowhere to be seen. He turned around and headed for the girls dormitory. He raced up the stairs and pounded on the door. "Is Hermione there?" he said. No one answered but he could hear someone moving about. "Open up! Hello? I need to talk to Hermione!"
Slowly the doorknob turned, and the door opened revealing a red-eyed Hermione. "What do you want?" she seemed thouroly annoyed that he was there, but that wasn't going to stop Ron. He gently pushed his way into the dormitory and grabbed her arm, pulling her towards her bed. (So she can sit down!)
"Ron what are you doing?!"
"Hermione, just hear me out, ok?" Hermione sat down on her bed and kept her mouth shut, though she really wanted to tell Ron to go away. (I really really REALLY wanted to say bugger off but I'm not British and 1000% sure what it means.) Ron stared her straight in the eyes and began to pour out his soul. "I'm sorry I got mad at you for writing to Victor, and for not trusting you. I'm sorry for everything I've ever done wrong. The truth is, I still love you. I always have! I don't want us to end. You mean the world to me, Mione. I can't live without you… I've loved you since the day I met you, and I always will. Please, just give me another chance.
Ron's eyes were filled with tears. He was perfectly still; kneeling. "Ron," she said after a long pause. "Ron I'm sorry…" Ron couldn't believe it. He had completely opened up to her. Not a door was left shut. Hermione let out a flood of tears. He had to get out of there somehow. He stood up and quickly walked out of the room, and into his own dormitory.
Ron stared at the ceiling. He felt more pain now than he ever had before. But what haunted him the most is that Hermione didn't love him anymore. Or maybe she never did… Ron thought back to what the Angel had shown him. No. She did love him. At least at one time…
Hours past. Lunch had come and gone. Everyone was now heading down ro dinner, except for Ron, who was still staring at the ceiling. "Ron are you sure you don't want to go down to dinner with me? Unless you've become friends with a house elf, you haven't eaten all day."
"No, I'm fine."
"Look, I know your upset about Hermione, but you can't starve yourself over her!" Ron was happy Harry cared, but wished he would give up and leave. "Please just come down to dinner."
"Look, I'll go down later, ok?" Ron lied. Harry gave up and left. How could he go on like this? Hermione seemed fine with letting go.
There was a soft knock at the door; then it opened. Ron didn't bother to look and see who it was. Frankly he didn't care! It was probably Ginny, sent by Harry, to talk to him about Hermione. But he was surprised when who ever it was sat next to him and soft called his name. "Ron?"
It was Hermione's voice. Ron turned to face her. "If Harry or Ginny sent you, just leave."
"No, no one sent me. I wanted to talk to you."
"About what then?" said Ron, harshly. He didn't care to hear what she had to say. She was just going to prolong his agony. She'd be stomping on his already broken heart.
"Ron, you don't trust me at all, and you'd think you would after two years, but how can we have a relationship if—"
"Hermione. Please don't sit here and lecture me on why we shouldn't be together. I really don't want to hear it."
"I don't intend to lecture you, Ron! If you would just listen to me for once second and let me say what I'm trying to—"
"Say it then."
Hermione looked slightly hurt, but then her expression changed. "I was thinking and, everyone deserves second chances but—" Oh sure…thought Ron. Not a lecture… Right…"And I—I don't want us to end either! I love you too!"
Ron couldn't believe it. Just earlier she had said it was over for good, and now she was saying she still loved him. "Ron, I'm sorry I—" Hermione began talking a thousand miles an hour. Ron just smiled and looked her in the eyes. He put his finger up to her lips. "Shhh…" he said, removing his finger. He leaned in and kissed her. Thank you, he mentally said to the Angel. For everything.
The EndWell that is the end! I hope you liked it! Now you're probably wondering why Hermione didn't accept his apology at first. Well, I'm going to explain it all. She really wanted to end the relationship. She couldn't take anymore of his pointless jealousy. But something inside of her wouldn't let go. No matter how hard she fought, all she wanted was to be back in Ron's arms, to be with him forever.
I would just like to say thank you to everyone who has been reading my fanfic. You have no idea how happy you have all made me, knowing someone is reading and enjoying what I've written. I have bits and pieces of another fanfic, but I'm trying to think of a twist for it. Once again, thank you so much for reading! Please tell me what you thought of the ending.
