Chapter 1
Love...it tries to change us all...

"No Ginny you don't understand!" Hermione whined as she flopped herself on the red Gryffindor chair.

"What isn't there to understand? You like my brother...I get it." Ginny said exhaustedly.

"That's the thing. See, I am in love with YOUR brother...Ronald Weasley! How insane can I be right now!? Can I get any more mad? I mean its Ron...I've known him for five years and he's probably the dumbest, immature, git I've ever seen. Yet...somehow I find that attractive. I'm mentally insane!" Hermione groaned and hit her head with a book.

"Okay he may be my older annoying brother Hermione but you probably know as much as I do. The things you've said are pretty low though...even for a sister to take. Just tell him how you feel."

"Like that's ever going to happen. He thinks I'm a stuck up, predictable book, that he can just shut and leave anywhere."

"Um, that part might be true," Ginny hesitated thinking for a good thing to say, "but like you find his immature ways attractive...he might find your um knowledge attractive."

Looking around the fire lit room Hermione jumped up, "You know you're right thank you so much Ginny!" and with that she ran upstairs into the girl's dormitory.

"How do I do it!?" Ginny laughed to herself.

(AN: This is all I could think of because I got the idea all of a sudden...sort of like a spur of the moment kind of thing. R/R ...and I'll write some more!)

The next morning Hermione had a cheerful grin on her face. While most everyone in the Gryffindor common room were groaning from lack of sleep, Hermione mainly skipped her way through the morning.

"What's gotten into her?" Harry said slanting his head side-wards at Hermione.

Ginny smiled, "Oh I just told her to stop being a closed book and open to a new page."

Harry lifted one eyebrow.

"I mean I convinced her to ask Ron out."

They both laughed when Ron cut in, "What are two laughing about?"

"Nothing!"

"Virginia Weasley I know that face and that isn't 'Nothing'" Ron glared.

"I hate that you know my face expressions..."

"Well I do so get over it and stop changing the subject. What's going on?"

Ginny gave a huge grin, "You'll find out very, very soon."

Hermione swayed over to where Ron was standing, "Ron, can I talk to you for a moment?" She winked at Ginny.

"Sure what do you need?"

She led Ron away from the others and got right to the point.

"I love you Ron. I have since I first saw that lopped-sided grin of yours. You're everything to me and so yeah I just wanted to let you know that." Hermione calmly said all of this, gave a smile at Ron, and started laughing.

Why is she laughing? Is this some sort of joke...Hermione never says things that calmly. What has gotten into her? Ron thought to himself.

She straightened up long enough for Ron to get a word in. But he just stood bewildered and confused.

"Well that's not exactly how I thought you were going to take it." Hermione frowned.

"Oh no it's just, I mean, is it that, are you serious?" He blinked.

She gave another heart-warming smile, "Of course I'm serious!"

And with that she gave Ron a kiss on the cheek and walked off.

In a daze Ron glided back towards Ginny and Harry.

"You look like you sure enjoyed that mate." Harry laughed.

"Well I mean, Yes I suppose I did but that didn't seem like Hermione...She's different than that..."

"Oh really? Well maybe she's changed, People are allowed to do that you know Ron? Anyway let's get to breakfast where this Love Couple can see eachother again."

"We're not a couple." Ron said seriously and sharply.

Ginny gave a confused look, "But Ron you've loved Hermione for...how many years now?"

"Ever since I first saw her...but now I'm confused I thought I was the one that was going to reveal my love."

"Oh big brother of mine, how thick can you get? If she never said anything then you probably would have waited until the next year to tell her."

Harry nodded.

"Okay Gin you're right. But Mione's done everything I would have thought to express her love. I don't think there's anything left for me to say 'I love you too'."

Ginny rolled her eyes, "Oh bloody hell Ron write her a note with a flower...is it really THAT hard!?"

"You're a girl you know those kind of things!"

Harry stepped forward, "Hem, sorry to interrupt this brotherly sisterly moment but I'm quite hungry and WOULD like to get to breakfast."

They all laughed and went out of the common room and to The Great Hall for breakfast.
