There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
There's nothing you can say
but you can learn how to play the game it's easy
All you need is love
"Why the change of pace?" Ron asked her, panting.
"Well, we better find him fast. Wouldn't want to waste your time with me.." Hermione snapped.
"Hermione..." Ron whined.
"No Ron! There's nothing you can say or do right now.." Hermione warned.
"That's it, I can't take this anymore!" Ron shouted. Hermione stopped and crossed her arms.
"Are you kidding me? YOU can't take this anymore? YOU can't take this anymore!?" she shouted in disbelief.
"I'm a minute away from crumbling Hermione. Completely losing my mind.." he whispered.
"And I suppose you think that's my fault?" Hermione assumed in a huff.
"Of course it is! And probably mine as well," he admitted. Hermione's eyes glared daggers.
"Oh, I'm sure.." she muttered.
"You know, are you sure there is nothing I can say or do to make things better?" Ron questioned. Hermione groaned and threw her hands up in the air.
"I am 100 percent positive Ronald Weasley! Can't you see that?" she said in exasperation.
"Did you ever consider the fact that you might be WRONG once in awhile?" Ron asked her, raising his eyebrows. Hermione shifted nervously and avoided his invading stare.
"I don't know... no. I don't think I am this time.." she answered.
"I think you are," Ron argued. It was now or never. He was not going to ruin another day for himself. He had to find out. SHE had to find out.
"Try me"
"I love you Hermione," he said quietly. He had no idea where his sudden burst of courage came from, but it didn't go over so well.
"How DARE you! How dare you try and mess with my emotions like that!" Hermione spat, tears forming in her eyes.
"How could you not... all you need is love! How can that not fix things?" Ron asked her, genuinely confused.
"You can't lie to me to make me feel better!" Hermione said collapsing to the ground.
Ron shook his head and sat down beside her, wrapping his arms around her and holding her tight.
"I'm a liar suddenly, because I love you?" he asked, saying the infamous three word phrase again. Hermione began to cry, but Ron silenced her with his lips against hers.
"Why didn't you say something sooner!?" she asked, punching his chest multiple times.
"God, I'm sorry for being insecure. Would you like me to scream it to the world?" Ron asked, rolling his eyes. Hermione buried her face into his neck.
"I love you too. God help me, but I love you so much.." she told him. He smiled widely and kissed her again.
"I was hoping you did," he whispered in her ear.
"You think that maybe I was wrong? I mean...would you consider this fixing things?" Hermione asked, laughing. Ron shrugged and pulled her off the ground. He didn't release her hand.
"Hmmn, I don't know. One more try.." he said and kissed her once more. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Yup, that should about do it," he added and walked with her hand in hand.
"You sure you want to be holding my hand?" Hermione asked.
"Yes, I want to hold your hand," he said, backing up his statement by gripping a little tighter.
"I told you we could work it out," Hermione stated with a smile. Ron laughed and kissed her again.
"As long as it gives me an excuse to do that whenever I feel like.."
Harry watched the two of them as they headed his way. He shook his head, not needing to voice the 'finally' he was thinking at the moment. Ron didn't need his help after all.
