Ron and Shanon: Story 3

Chapter 7

Shanon stood in front of Ron, Harry, and Hermione on the grounds. They were looking at her, waiting for her to say something, anything. Shanon looked at each of them, took a breath, and then began to speak.

"I remember everything perfectly when I was under the spell." She swallowed. "But I loved........Draco. Oh, I just can't explain it. I was conscious and I remember everything but I.............." she broke off, looking at Hermione for help to explain why it was like this.

"I understand." Hermione smiled. "That's what love potions do. You can't do anything about it because you don't want to, but then after you wonder why you didn't."

Shanon nodded. Ron let out a sigh.

"I'm so glad I got you back." He blurted out. His face was red and Shanon smiled.

"I can't live without you Ron." she said quietly. Ron grinned. Harry coughed loudly.

"I just can't believe you broke through it!" Harry laughed. Hermione grinned.

"A bit cliché, isn't it?" Ron smiled. Harry grinned. "I mean, the whole thing. Her love was too strong and broke through the potion.............all this is so typical isn't it?" Shanon laughed and hit Ron on the arm. Then it was quiet.

"I'm going to miss Hogwarts." Harry said. Hermione looked at him and rested her head on shoulder. "This has been the only place I like staying." he said. "I hate the Durlseys so much. I want to kill them. I want to strangle them." Hermione kissed his cheek.

"Harry, don't think like that. You have your own house near me now!" she grinned and Ron and Shanon gasped.

"WHAT???" Ron was laughing and he hugged Harry with a clap on his back. "You didn't tell me!" Harry grinned.

"Yeah, I bought it with money Mum and Dad left me."

"Oh it's beautiful!" Hermione smiled up at Harry. "You'll all come right?" Shanon and Ron nodded. Shanon was beaming.

"That's great Harry!" she smiled. Harry and Ron went off. They were laughing and recalling events from their years here. Hermione went over to Shanon.

"Why did you go bak to France?" Hermione asked. Shanon looked at her quickly, then turned away.

"Oh I.................." she looked at Hermione. "Hermione, I can't tell you. But, promise me you won't talk about it." There was fear in her voice. Hermione frowned.

"Shanon are you ok?"

"I'm fine!" her voice quavered. "I'll be..............fine." Hermione nodded and wondered what was scaring her so much.

All of a sudden, Ron came running over and picked Shanon up in his arms, kissing her cheek. Harry kissed Hermione. Shanon laughed. Hermione brushed off the matter, thinking a relative must've died or her father had gotten a new job. Besides, Shanon would've told her if it was that important, right? Hermione paused as Harry nuzzled her cheek. She smiled. Right. Shanon would have told.

Ron was caressing Shanon in his arms.

"I love you." He whispered, nuzzling his nose against her cheek. Shanon giggled and kissed him on the lips. Ron kissed her back. Shanon put her arms around his neck and Ron ran his hands through her hair. Harry and Hermione smiled and slowly slipped away.

Shanon broke free from the kiss and kissed Ron's cheek. Then she smiled.

"I love you too." She whispered. Ron kissed her neck. Then he held her in his arms, stroking her hair. Slowly, they made their way up to the dormitories to pack and leave Hogwarts for the last time.
