There is going to be fluff in this chapter, but it makes it sweet. Ron/Hermione major!
Luna walked up to the stage, amid laughing and/or general ignorance. There was even a few boos heard from the crowd. Only Neville Longbottom, Ginny, Hermione, Ron, and Harry clapped the hardest. Ron yelled out over the crowd, "You guys need to bloody clap and like her because Luna is cool and a good person! A little weird, but cool!" Hermione looked at him in an expression that clearly said, "You are NOT helping!" Ron, being the ignorant prat he was, continued, "You guys clapped for Marietta, why not Luna? She is also an excellent fighter."
"How do you know?" a random student yelled from the audience.
"I saw her. Mind you, I was also delirious a bit then. But I still saw her fight." Harry, Hermione, and Ginny were shaking their heads praying that he wouldn't give away too much about the Department of Mysteries fight.
"What fight?" the same student asked.
"The fight in the Depa. . . ." He couldn't continue because Harry had rugby-tackled Ron covering his mouth. "Don't speak another word," he hissed. "I think what Ron was trying to say was, 'Just watch Luna'. They're all yours Luna."
Luna looked around sheepishly as the attention came back to her. "O-Kay. Here goes."
The song started up, and Luna actually had a good voice. While the crowd was preoccupied with her and her voice, Harry and the others started to lecture Ron.
"Ron, that could have completely blown up everything-"
"But. . ."
"Does anything go through that mangy red haired skull of yours?"
"Ginny!"
"What would your father say?"
"Mum! Don't tell him where I am!"
"He already knows," came the voice of his father.
"Dad, I am SO sorry! I-Really I didn't mean it to go that far, but-well- that lousy good for nothing kid kept asking questions and I was getting into all the attention."
"Don't worry, I am not going to punish you. I think making you sing your song next, with the girl up on the stage with you, will be enough punishment for you."
"Than-No way! That is NOT happening! She is not going to be on stage with me! Besides, there will other boys singing, it wouldn't work!"
"Don't worry. Because of your big mouth, the guys will have the girls they are sing to on stage as well."
"Mr. Weasley!" came Harry's voice. "Please don't do this to me! You like me, don't you?"
"Dad!" That was the twins, simultaneously. "Harry's right, for once," Harry glowered at the two. "You like us, don't you?"
"Ok, hold on. Number one: Harry is going to be embarrassed because he needs some humor in his life. Number two: The Terrible Twins are going to be embarrassed because they dropped out of school. So here is what is going to happen. I will go up ahead of you, while you stay behind the curtain. Then, I will make an announcement, and Summon the four girls on stage and direct them to stools. You will sing, you will bow, then you will give the girls a kiss on THE CHEEK! Harry, are you listening to me? ON THE CHEEK!" He then left to go somewhere.
Harry, Ron, Fred and George looked horrified. "Well, maybe we should go tell Seamus to get ready for utmost embarrassment," Fred added grimly.
"What in bloody Hell was that all about?" Hermione asked perplexedly. The boys jumped, not realizing she had been there the whole time. "And why did Mr. Weasley single you out Harry?"
"Erm-I don't know?" Harry answered, clearly lying.
"'Mione? Did you just cuss? Wicked!"
Everybody started clapping after he finished speaking. First they were shocked, then they realized Luna must have finished singing. "Well. . . That was ironic. And THAT'S ironic because of the song Luna was just singing."
The announcer came over the intercom, "THIS NEXT ACT WILL BE A BIT DIFFERENT. A CERTAIN SOMEONE HAS COME TO ME ASKING NOT TO ANNOUNCE THE STUDENTS SINGING OR THE SONG THEY WILL BE SINGING. GIVEN TO CIRCUMSTANCES, WE WILL HAVE A SHORT FIVE MINUTE BREAK."
Ron, Harry, Fred and George made their way to the stage, to go behind the curtains. They met Seamus halfway there. "Seamus, before you ask, Ickle Ronniekins had to open his mouth so now the entire group is suffering," George told him.
Seamus' jaw dropped. "How are we suffering?"
"My dad has decided to Summon each of our crushes/girlfriends up to the stage. THEN, we get to sing to them and at the end we have to kiss them on the cheek. Which he impressed onto Harry very greatly."
"FIVE MINUTE BREAK UP! PLEASE GET TO YOUR SEATS."
Mr. Weasley came to the stage. Several people started clapping and shouting 'Encore!'
"No sorry, there will be no encore. I am up here again because I will be the one to introduce the next act. But before I do that, I need to Summon a few things-er, ones. ACCIO HERMIONE GRANGER, ACCIO VIRGINIA WEASLEY, ACCIO KATLYN BELL, ACCIO ANGELINA JOHNSON, ACCIO LAVENDER BROWN." With that, the five said girls zoomed onto the stage surrounding the red head. "Terribly sorry about that." The girls just glared. He directed them to five stools spread a distance apart. "If you would take a seat, we can now begin."
The five behind the curtain audibly gasped. "He can't do this to us!" Ron said indignantly. "Well, now we know why dad made sure Harry kissed on the cheek. Otherwise he would have snogged poor Gin-Gin," Fred snorted.
Back to the six on stage: "The reason you are up here today is because you will be serenaded by five charming boys. I will blindfold you and then they will come out, and at the very end you will get a surprise and be able to remove your blindfold."
"Mr. Weasley? Can we please NOT use the blindfolds?" Hermione asked pleadingly.
"Fine. No blindfolds."
"So sit, enjoy the show." With that the music started. Hermione gasped. "I know this song. It's Backstreet Boys' 'All I Have to Give'." Nine sighs (*Not the sighs like 'Aww, isn't that so cute' but as in 'Do I have to do this?'*) could be heard from the stage and back stage. The boys walked out in matching white robes/outfits.
Ron: I don't know what he does to make you cry,
but I'll be there to make you smile.
Harry: I don't have a fancy car,
to get to you I'd walk a thousand miles.
Fred: I don't care if he buys you nice things
Does his gifts come from the heart-I don't know
George: But if you were my girl...
I'd make it so we'd never be apart.
All: But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don't think I can live
I wish I could give the world to you. . .but
Love is all I have to give
(During the first verse and chorus, they had just been at the front of the stage, dancing. When the second verse started up, they all walked to the girl they were singing to and stood in front of her.)
Harry: When you talk-does it seem like he's not
even listening to a word you say?
Ron: That's okay babe, just tell me your problems
I'll try my best to kiss them all away. . .
(Hermione blushed.)
George: Does he leave when you need him the most?
Does his friends get all your time?
Fred: Baby please...I'm on my knees
(At this, the boys got down to their knees in time with the music.)
praying for the day that you'll be mine!!
They repeated the chorus.
The girls had silent tears streaming down their faces. Joy tears, mind you.
Fred and George: To you...
Harry: Hey girl,
Ron: I don't want you to cry no more-inside
All but Seamus: All the money in the world could never add up to all the love
I have inside
All: I Love You
Angelina mouthed back 'I love you, too' to Fred and he smiled that sexy smile of his.
Seamus: And I will give it to you
Ron: All I can give
Harry: All I can give
Fred: Everything I have is for you
George: But love is all I have to give
They kept repeating the chorus until the music went off.
The crowd cheered the loudest for the ten on stage. Even louder than they had done for Mr. Weasley. There was no contest. No matter who went next, the boys would win.
Once everybody had finished taking their bows/curtsies, Fred bent forward and gave Angelina a good snog.
The others laughed at his daring, but then Harry turned toward Ginny and they exchanged a light kiss. George did the same as Harry with Katie, but Seamus only gave Lavender a quick kiss on the cheek, but he whispered to Lavender that "There was more where that came from."
Soon, only Ron was left to give a kiss. He and Hermione looked at each other, then the floor, then each other, then the other's hair, until finally Ron leaned forward slightly and brought his arms around her waist. "Do you mind if I kiss you?" he whispered, completely forgetting the one hundred plus wizards watching their every move. Most of the students were silently saying 'Kiss, kiss, kiss' while the adults simply wondered what was keeping the kids quiet for so long.
"Not at all," she said slyly/shyly. (*Can you do that? Be sly and shy at the same time?*) "Well then, Miss Granger, I am going to kiss you now."
"Be my guest," and with that they closed the gap between them and he gently placed his lips on hers.
A Boeing 747 would have been put to shame with the noise the students were making. The adults were confused at first because they kept thinking, "What is so important about these two kids snogging?", when after awhile they caught on to conversations like 'Finally, I thought they would never get together' and 'You owe me 10 sickles' and even 'It was SO obvious he was singing about Krum in the first verse. I mean, come on.'
