Ron sat down in a chair in the common room. He'd jut finished the last class of the day. He was gkad to be back, and not have to watch Hermione and Harry whispering to each other. He knew that they were talking about him, because every time he would look at them, they would turn away.
"Hey, Ron." Ginny said plopping down on the arm of his chair.
"Hi, Ginny." He leaned forward and put his head in his hands.
"Do you miss Hermione?"
Ron stayed silent, but he could feel his sister staring at him. "Yes. I guess so."
She wrapped an arm around her older brother's shoulder and leaned against her head against his. "I miss Harry, too."
Ron grunted and leaned back again. "Why do we have to be so stubborn?" He asked his sister.
She laughed, "We're Weasleys, that's why."
"Well, I hate being a Weasley then."
"Why are you so mad at her anyway?"
"I don't know. Because she went behind my back. Because she lied to me. Why are you mad at Harry?"
"Of what Hermione said. She made it sound like he didn't want to see me. I felt used." Ginny wiped away a tear that was forming in her eye.
Ron sighed. "That's not true. He likes you."
"How do you know?"
"He told me. He asked me if he could take you to Hogsmeade, and I told him no. I wish I would've said yes."
"Why?"
"Because now none of us are happy. We would all be fine if I would've let Harry take you. That way I could've kept an eye on the two of you." He smiled at his little sister.
"You mean, it's okay for me and Harry to be together?" She asked hopefully.
Ron nodded. "Just promise me you guys won't take it so fast. You're young."
"I know Ron. Now we have to talk to them."

Hermione sat down on her bed and pulled out a book. She opened it up and pulled out a small piece of paper and picked it up. Unfloding the letter, she held it up to her face and inhaled deeply.
It was the letter Ron had given her. It still smelled of him. Hermione was distracted as she heard a knock on her door. "Come in!" She yelled, tucking the letter into her book and shoving it under her pillow.
"Hi Hermione."
"Ginny! Hullo!" Hermione sat up as the red head sat on the end of her bed. "What brings you here?"
Ginny cleared her throat. "It was stupid for me to be mad at you."
"You don't have to apologize Ginny. It's okay."
"So are we okay now?"
"Yes, of course. But what about Harry?"
"We have everything worked out now."
"And what about Ron?"
Ginny smiled and shrugged her shoulders. "Are you coming to the quidditch match tonight?"
Hermione raised her eyebrows, "Why do I get the feeling that you know something that I don't?"
~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~
"Ready mate?" Harry asked Ron as they peeked through the doors of the quidditch locker rooms.
"Yes. Ginny and Hermione are here now." He looked back at Harry and inhaled deeply. "Let's go!" The Gryffindor quidditch team entered onto the field.
"The Gryffindor Quidditch Team!" Lee Jordan shouted over the cheering crowd.
Ginny winked from the crowd.
" Seeker- Harry Potter!" Ginny blew Harry a kiss from the stands and he pretended to catch it. "Chaser- Katie Bell! Chaser- Angelina Johnson Chaser- Alicia Spinnet Beater- Fred Weasley Beater- George Weasley An introducing this year's newest edition- Keeper- Ron Weasley!" Ron flew up into the stands.
"You didn't tell me Ron made Keeper!" Hermione's eyes stayed glued to Ron as he flew closer to her place in the stands.
Ginny shrugged her shoulders as Ron stopped to a skid on his broom in front of Hermione. "Hermione~" His breathing was ragged as he tried speaking to her. He pulled his wand out and muttered a spell, making flowers pop from the end of his broom. He tugged as the flowers slowly pulled out. He handed her the flowers. "Here."
She took the flowers, and her cheeks that were already red from the cool ari got even more red as the crowd cooed. She bit her lips as Ron leaned down and kissed her lips. "I'm sorry."
"No, I'm sorry, Ron." She stood up and wrapped her arms around him. She took off her scarf and wrapped it around his neck. "Good luck." She kissed him one final time before he flew off and grounded by his teammates.
"And that was Ron's girlfriend wishing him luck." Lee said to the stadium. As he made kissy noises. Hermione blushed and shook her head.

Hermione and Ginny waited outside the locker room. Ginny huddled closer to Hermione. "Did you know that Ron was going to do that?" Hermione asked the red head.
"Of course. He and Harry thought it up earlier today. Took Ron at least an hour just to get that stupid flower spell down."
"It wasn't stupid." Hermione said holding the golden flowers to her nose.
Ron and Harry walked out of the locker room. "I'll see you later Ron." Harry said walking beside Ginny back to the castle.
Hermione stepped forward and wrapped her arms tightly around Ron. He slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled him into her.
"Oh, Ron! You're the sweetest!" He laughed and ran his hand through her hair.
"I take it you're not mad at me anymore?"
"I was never mad at you Ron. I thought you were mad at me." She backed away and looked up at him.
"It doesn't matter." He gently rubbed his hands against her cheeks, attempting to warm them up. She smiled and leaned up to kiss him.

Draco Malfoy emerged from the locker room on the opposite side of the field. He glanced across the field at the kissing couple.
He closed his eyes and walked in the other direction. "Why would anyone kiss that mudblood?" He carried his broom up to the castle. "I guess we'll have to fix that."
