Author's Notes: It's not really a story so much as a little rambling of Ron's. So, Ron's thoughts. Ron's POV. That's about it. It's sweet. I love it.

Is Love
by Dai
There's a wall between us now. Have you noticed? I'm trying to remember when it first appeared. During our fourth year, wasn't it? Or maybe it really started in third. Whatever year it was, I'm pretty sure it happened when we first started to really notice girls. It meant we could no longer only care what we thought about each other. We started to care about our impressions on the girls we liked. We... We started to spend less time together. To drift apart. Did you notice it, Harry? You must have. You must also have noticed that, even though the wall hasn't been breached, we still have roots that grew too far under it, can still communicate the way we could before the wall appeared, only this time without really speaking. We never really talk about it, never show it, but we both know there's a bond between us that's grown stronger than friendship. Much stronger. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, but... You never seem to act any differently. Our conversations are never tense or awkward... And I never get the feeling of wanting something more. Something more than we already share. I suppose I'm just content with knowing that, whatever happens, that bond has grown too strong to be broken. We'll always be together... in those roots planted under the wall... where are hearts beat... in the same rhythm... with the same emotion radiating through our entire bodies... This is love... isn't it, Harry?
