Telling Ron
Chapter 15: The, Um, Pretty Lake
Author's Note: Thanks for the reviews! I meant to update this afternoon but my computer said, 'this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down' everytime I turned it on so I couldn't update. I went to my friends house and came back and my computer was working so here's the next chapter! It starts immediately after the last chapter so you may need to read the last couple of sentences from chapter 14 to refresh your memory. OK, here we go!
Ginny looked at Harry hopefully. He cleared his throat, looking into Ginny's eyes.
"Ginny, I...I really like you." He stepped closer to her and she smiled up at him. "I wondered if maybe we could-" Suddenly Ginny reached up and grabbed his face. She pulled his lips to hers and kissed him deeply. Despite how surprised he was, Harry put his arms around her waist without hesitation. They snogged each other like there was no tomorrow. They had both been waiting for this moment for awhile and didn't want to stop. They eventually had to pull away to take a breath. Harry looked down at her, completely amazed at what she had done. They stared into each other's eyes, breathing heavily.
"So then, will you go out with me?"
Ginny pretended to think about it. "I don't know. I think I've taken a liking to Seamus now." He laughed. "Oh alright. I suppose you'll do." She rose on tiptoe and they kissed each other again.

Meanwhile in the castle, Hermione noticed Harry and Ginny were gone. She looked out a window in Gryffindor Tower, scanning the lawn until her eyes landed on a pair of people who seemed attached to each other. She squinted and put her forehead against the glass. Her jaw dropped in surprise when she realized who and what she was seeing.
"What are you looking at?"
She spun around quickly to face Ron, covering the window with her back.
"Oh nothing. Just looking at the lake." Ron would likely jump out the window if he saw what was going on.
"Why? You've seen it before."
"I know. It's just....you know...pretty. Um, how about we go find a closet?" She had to find something to distract Ron. It worked.
"Okay." He took her hand and they exited the common room.
Harry and Ginny entered Hogwarts and headed up to Gryffindor Tower. Ron and Hermione walked past them and they exchanged hello's. A thought came to Ginny.
"Harry are we going to tell them? I mean Hermione wouldn't have a problem with us but Ron....well Ron's a bit protective."
Harry nodded. "I know. We don't have to tell him yet. Maybe we should wait a little while and figure out a way to break it to him."
"Yeah, I think we should wait too. I don't want Ron to have a heart attack right before Christmas. Should we tell Hermione?"
"I know she would keep it a secret but if she knew and Ron didn't, he might be upset."
"Alright, we'll just keep it a secret then." She kissed him on the cheek and he hugged her close to him.
Ron and Hermione were kissing in a new found closet when his stomach growled. He groaned.
"Why do I always have to be hungry? It ruins everything."
Hermione shrugged, smiling. "You obviously have a fast metabolism."
"Hermione don't use big words when we're in a closet together. It kills the mood even more!" His stomach growled again and he sighed.
"Damn. Time for dinner. Let's go see if Harry and Ginny want to come." They checked to make sure no one was around before stepping out of the closet. Ginny and Harry came down the stairs as Ron and Hermione reached them.
"Hey we were just coming to get you guys," Ron said.
"Yes, Ron's stomach has become an alarm for when it's time for dinner." Hermione rolled her eyes at Harry but then looked up at Ron adoringly.
They entered the hall and sat down to eat. Ron knocked off a fork in his hurry to eat and bent under the table to retrieve it. A moment later his head bumped the table and he sat up quickly.
"Ginny your foot is on Harry's!"
Her eyes widened and she removed it quickly. Harry coughed into his pumpkin juice and Hermione snorted. Ginny got a confused look on her face and said innocently, "Oh oops. Sorry Harry. I thought it was the table leg."
"Oh don't worry about it. I didn't even notice." He laughed nervously as Ron looked at them suspiciously. He was distracted by Seamus asking him a question and Harry sighed with relief. He looked at Hermione. She gave him a knowing smile then continued eating.
Author's Note: Sorry it was kind of an abrupt end to the chapter but I wasn't sure what else to say. I want the next part to be a different chapter. Also, sorry it was a short chapter. This chapter was written differently before but I didn't like it so I changed it and now it's shorter. Next chapter wil be up soon though. I'll try to make it a long one. But anyway, Yay! Yay! Yay! Both are couples now! Hooray! Hope everyone liked it! Christmas will be coming soon. Aw, the wrath of Fred and George.... Hey I have a question for you Georgia Nicholson readers out there. You know the ear snogging thing? Wouldn't her ear taste like earwax? Or is there a way to dewaxify your ears or get rid of the taste or something? I know its an odd question. Just wondering.
Individuals:
KrisKG: Thanks, I'm glad you understand. It's tough to have school as well as ballet almost everyday. Anyway, thanks for reviewing. Hope you liked this chapter too!
Hplova4eva: Thank you for reviewing. Hope you liked this one!
hP fAn Fo LyFe: Thanks Meg! I love fluff too so I'll put in as much as possible in the chapters to come.
Miss Metallic: Thank you for reviewing! Just out of curiosity, which part of the plot is commonly used? I've read some fanfics about R/H but not that many. I don't want to copy a lot of other people's stuff! I know Ron's been sort of pervy but I don't really want him too shy at school since everyone knew they liked each other (at least they did in my fic). He'll get shy around his family though. Sorry if he's been too perverted! I don't want to disgust anyone! Anyway, glad you like it!
'Mione Weasley: Glad you liked the footsie! I thought it would be cute. I have a question for you: Are you and Mione Weasley the same person? Because your name has the apostrophy before it but sometimes it doesn't. So are 'Mione Weasley and Mione Weasley the same person? Or are you guys two different people? Just curious!
yalata: I don't care if you review every chapter as long as you review! I understand that you're busy. I am too. Glad you liked the last chapter! Hope you liked this one!
Cheese Diva: Thank you! I updated pretty quickly! Hopefully I can update again soon!
Hermioneclone: Thank you! I'm so glad you love it! I do a lot of cliffhangers so please don't die if I do another one!
