Ron and Hermione entered the common room and went to sit on the couch. Ron stared into the fire for a while, and Hermione played with her robes. Their eyes finally met and they smiled at each other.
"So, did you want to talk about something?" Hermione asked.
"Uh, yeah. I just wanted to explain that all these events with Lavender were a big misunderstanding," Ron said. "You're the only one for me."
Hermione smiled. "Thanks, and I want to say that I'm really sorry for using George to make you jealous.It's just..."
"I understand," Ron cut her off.
"Thanks." They smiled at each other for a moment. Then Ron moved closer to Hermione. She got the hint and moved closer to him. When they connected, their kisses deepened. After a few minutes of fierce kissing, they fell back onto to couch, still lip locked.

Harry looked around the Hall. He was looking for Cho. He came to the dance without a date, and since he had hooked Ron up with Hermione and George had gone off to dance with Angelina, he was bored. He had thought about going up to the dorm, but it was still early and he wasn't tired. He thought maybe if he saw Cho, he could gather up the courage to ask her to dance. He spotted her by the punchbowl and butterbeers and made his way over to her.
"Hey Cho," Harry said as his heart started beating faster.
"Hi Harry!" Cho exclaimed. "Um, you know my date, Roger Davies, right?"
"Uh, yeah," Harry choked. He had forgotten that Cho would probably have a date. "You're on the Ravenclaw Quiddich team, right?" he said to Roger.
"Yeah," Roger said. He looked at Harry, then at Cho. He shifted uncomfortably.
"So who are you with, Harry?" Cho asked.
"Um, no one," Harry said, turning a shade of crimson.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Cho said, looking embarrassed.
"Well, shall we go dance, then?" Roger asked Cho, pulling her arm toward the floor.
"Wait a moment, I want to talk to Harry a bit," Cho snapped. She turned back to Harry and smiled, slightly blushing.
"Well, excuuuse me for just wanting to dance with my date," Roger said, rolling his eyes.
"Roger, I know what you want to do. You do this with every girl that you date," Cho said angrily. "You want me to think that you're the sweetest guy, then get me up to your dormitory and..." Cho paused. "And I'm not falling for that." She turned to Harry. "You want to dance, Harry?"
"Sure," Harry said hesitantly as Roger turned and stormed off. Harry saw him stop by Padma Patil and start flirting with her.
"Will you look at that," Cho said. Harry could see tears rising up in her eyes. "Cedric would never had done that to me." Her bottom lip quivered, then she burst out in tears, turning to Harry and crying into his shoulder. Harry looked at her for a moment, slightly shocked, then awkwardly patted her on the back. He had looked for her to have some fun, but remembering Cedric wasn't his idea of fun.
"Here, Cho," he said, handing her a bottle of butterbeer. 'This is going to be a long night,' he thought, sighing.
*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
Everyone headed back up to their common rooms. None of the Gryffindors noticed Ron and Hermione on the couch. Some of them went straight to their dormitories alone or with friends, others had their dates still with them. The Common Room was empty for a while before Ron and Hermione finally sat up.
"Maybe we should call it a night," Hermione said.
"Yea h, sounds good," Ron replied. After one last kiss, the two took separate staircases up to their dorms. Ron opened the door to his dorm as quietly as he could, only to find that everyone was still awake.
"Hey Ron," Dean said. "How was your-hic-time with-hic-Hermione?"
"Dean's had a little too much butterbeer," Seamus explained.
"Ah," Ron said. "What's up with Harry?" he asked, gesturing toward Harry's bed. Harry was sitting there with his hand on his forehead, his head leaning on his other arm.
"Cho," Neville whispered. Ron walked over to Harry's bed and sat down.
"What happened?" Ron asked.
"She left her date and just as I was about to ask her to dance, she brought up the subject of Cedric and started bawling like a baby." Harry shook his head. "I need an Advil."
"What's an Add ville?" Ron asked, confused.
"It's a tablet that Muggles take to help their headaches," Harry mumbled. "Damn, women are such a pain."
"Tell me about it," Seamus said. "I took Parvati to the dance and she wouldn't stop talking about how gorgeous Terry Boot was." Seamus sighed. "But she was rather happy when he came up and asked her to dance. She forgot all about me and ran off with him."
"Well, I happened to have a good time," Dean said. "I took Ginny and she told me she really likes me." Dean smiled.
"You're dating my sister?" Ron said, slightly shocked. Dean shrugged, so Ron thought nothing more about it.
"So I guess your time with Hermione went well, huh?" Seamus teased. Ron smiled but didn't say anything. 'Not all women are a pain,' he thought. As everyone got settled in their beds, he could not think of anyone but Hermione.
