Chapter 17 Near Death

It was now 10:00 clock at night when Hermione got Ron back to the Condo. It had taken all her will and power to get him back. Hermione then put Ron on the table. And started screaming "Mrs.Weasley! Mrs.Weasley!"

Mr. and Mrs. Weasley came running down the stairs frantically taking two steps at a time. " What is it dear?' said Mrs.Weasley. "Its Ron!" said Hermione. " He's barely breathing!"

" Oh my gosh! My poor Ron!" screamed Mrs.Weasley. Mrs.Weasley was going into hysterics. You would have thought she was mentally insane. " Quickly Arthur cure him!"

Mr.Weasley said a quick spell and instantly Ron's breathing came back to normal. Hermione who was pacing back and forth in the kitchen, instantly stopped. " Oh Ron! He's alive!" said Hermione overjoyed. " We better let him rest for at least an hour," said a concerned Mrs.Weasley.

" You better get some rest too dear" said Mr.Weasley to Hermione. Mr. and Mrs.Weasley then went back upstairs to bed, they did not move Ron back up to his room for they did not want to wake him. Hermione did not go back upstairs to sleep.

She stayed right by Ron's side just watching him, as if she took her eyes off him, he would just disappear. Hermione stayed by Ron's side for the rest of the night. In the morning, Fred and George were the first ones to be awake. They walked down the stairs to find Hermione half asleep by Ron.

" OY! Hermione! You look like you've gotten no sleep," said George. " George, you idiot she hasn't, she's been sitting at Ron's side all night!" said Fred. " But why is Ron sleeping down here?" asked Fred.

At this Hermione answered. " He was near death yesterday". " Our Ronnikins , no way! How?" asked George. Hermione then told them about the duel and how Viktor was acting like a totally different person.

" Wow," said Fred. " Well we aren't letting that prat what'shisname, into our home again, isn't that right George?" " Very right my dear brother" said George.

" Well Hermione we've got to be going, we have some um (Cough) experiments to tend to. " said Fred.

And with that they were gone. Hermione had a suspicion that those experiments were really jokes and pranks to add to the Weasley Wizard Wheezes. Soon everyone at the condo was starting to wake up and venture downstairs. But soon left when they saw Hermione by Ron's side. They knew she wanted privacy. Soon after everyone left back upstairs, Hermione started to talk to Ron who was still unconscious.

"Oh Ron! I love you so much!' said Hermione with passionate whisper. " You've got to wake up. Wake up for me".

Ron thought he was having a dream. He was at some golden gates with clouds everywhere. But then he heard an angelic voice. He thought " Am I in Heaven?" The voice was saying, "Wake up for me Ron", " I need you". Someone needed him? But who? But then everything went black.

He was snapped back into reality. A bright light flashed before his eyes. He suddenly saw a beautiful young woman in front of him. At seeing Ron, open his eyes, Hermione was overjoyed. "Ron!" exclaimed Hermione. " Hermione, did I win?" asked Ron, curiously. " Oh Ron you were magnificent!" exclaimed Hermione. " And yes you won!" " I did?" " Yes, and I'm so proud of you!" said Hermione. " I'm happy to see you are alive! We all thought you were going to die."

" Wow" said Ron." Hermione you look tired, you weren't up all night just for me were you?" " I couldn't leave your side, I didn't want too". " Oh Hermione, I love you so much!" said Ron. " Ron, I love you too."

They both heard a noise. They turned and looked at the staircase, standing there was the whole entire Weasley Family and Harry. " How long have you guys been standing there?' asked Hermione. " Long enough" said Harry. " Oh little Ronnikins has grown up!" exclaimed George. " Shut it George!" said Ron. Hermione just giggled and turned red.

" It was wrong of us to ease drop everyone time to go now." Said Mrs. Weasley. Ron and Hermione looked over at Mrs.Weasley gratefully. But Ginny seemed to linger behind a bit. " Umm. Hermione could I talk to you alone?" asked Ginny. Hermione then gave Ron a look that said I'll see ya later. Ron then gave her a kiss on the cheek and left the room, leaving Ginny and Hermione to talk alone.
