Telling Ron

Chapter 7: Vain and Pompous Prat

Author's Note: Oh my God almost fifty reviews! Hooray!! I'm so sorry I haven't updated in a few days but school, ballet, and sleep are kind of in the way. In my free time at school, I'm writing upcoming chapters so i have them ready to type when I get home. Please don't hate 'cause I love all of you!! Here's the closet scene! Hope it doesn't suck! Sorry if there are spelling, etc. mistakes but I had to type it fast and upload it!

Hermione kissed Ron good-bye as he headed to detention with McGonagall. She climbed the stairs towards Gryffindor Tower thinking of her day with Ron. They had stayed by the lake for a couple of hours until lunch. Hermione stayed in his lap with his arms around her middle. They talked about how their families would react to the news and Ron groaned as he thought of Fred and George. They would definately tease him at every possible moment. His mother would want a celebration and his father would be the only calm one.

After lunch, Ron took Hermione's hand and led her to a closet near Moaning Myrtle's lavatory. Pushing her in, he quickly shut the door behind him.

"What are you doing Ron?"

"Well I thought we could go someplace quiet where we could be alone and I remebered seeing this closet here in second year. It's perfect!"

"Ron if we get caught, we are going to be in so much trouble! Do you want more detention?"

"I'll take my chances."

"Ron I don't know..." He made the puppy face again and she scowled at him. She couldn't maintain it for long though. She grinned and put her arms around his neck. Ron smiled and bent down to her. Their lips touched and he ran his hand through her hair. After a bit, they stepped back towards the wall behind Hermione and he tripped over a broom. She burst out laughing as he stuggled to get up in the small space. He cleared his throat trying to look like nothing had happened. She grined at him and he sheepishly smiled back. Hermione stood on tiptoe and held his face as they continued. He lifted her body up to his level and held her tightly against him. He was about to move to her neck when footsteps interupted them. She put her hand over his mouth and listened as he lowered her down. The footsteps faded and Hermione slowly creaked open the door. No one was around and she stepped out.

"Hermione..." Ron whined pulling on her arm.

"Come on Ron, we need to go." He groaned but followed. "Bloody Hell."

They headed to Gryffindor Tower and pouted the whole way there.

"Honestly Ron, we were in there for half an hour! Stop looking like that! We can find a better closet another time."

Ron looked happier at that thought. "Will we go today?"

She raised her eyebrow at him. "Today? Ron you have detention in an hour and a half. Besides my lips need a bit of a rest."

Ron grinned. "I'm good huh?" She rolled her eyes. He nudged her. "Come on admit it. You enjoyed that." They reached the Fat Lady and Hermione said the password as she shook her head.

"Did that mean no?" Ron almost tripped as he stepped into the common room, looking worriedly at her.

"No that meant I think you are being a vain and pompous prat."

"At least you didn't say I was a bad kisser." Ron plopped into a squishy, red chair.

"And what if I did?" She put her hands on her hips and stared at him accusingly. He grabbed her waist and pulled her into his lap.

"I would know that you were lying and then snog you senseless." He kissed her deeply and she let him.

Hermione smiled to herself as she thought of this. Ron was impossible but she loved him. He made feel so special. When she was with him, she felt like the most beatiful girl in the world. She entered the common room to find Ginny lying on the floor, staring at the ceiling.

"Ginny are you alright?" Hermione went and sat next to Ginny's head. Ginny sighed and turned her face to Hermione.

"I'm in love." A tear rolled down her cheek. Hermione looked sadly at her friend. She knew who this was about.

"I thought you said you were over him?" Hermione smoothed Ginny's hair back away from her forehead.

"I lied," Ginny whispered. "I wanted to get over him but I can't. I tried by going out with Michael Corner and Dean but I've never stopped loving Harry. Not just a crush either. I'm in love with him." She sobbed and put her hands over her face as she sat up. "He doesn't feel anything for me." Hermione put her arms around Ginny and rocked her gently as she cried heavily into Hermione's shoulder.
