Chapter 8: All You Need is Love

As Ron walked down the corridor to the room with the mirror inside he decided what he had to tell Ginny. "When we get there just stay outside the room, ok? I know you want to help Harry but I need to do this, it's kinda my fault he's in trouble." He said.

"What did you do Ronald!" Ginny exclaimed.

"It complicated. You remember the diary you had in your first year." Ron paused as he saw his sister shudder a bit at the mention of that. "Sorry Gin, but the mirror is kind of like that. Not evil but still dangerous. I've already looked in so it won't be too bad for me. Just don't come in, ok?"

"Ok Ron," She said "but keep the door open in case you do need me."

"Fine, but if you come in, whatever you do, don't look in the mirror. It's more trouble than it's worth!" Ron said quietly as he approached the door.

As he reached for the door handle Ron heard a quiet exclamation of "Wow!" though the door from Harry. Damn it he's looking in, this will be awkward. I feel bad stopping him, but I won't be the cause of any problems he has!

Ron turned to Ginny one last time before he opened the door. "Remember, stay out here unless I need you ok?"

Without waiting for a reply Ron opened the door slowly and entered the room.

Harry sat in front of the mirror of Erised, grinning stupidly with tears glistening in his eyes. Wow. He thought. This is not what I was expecting. It's better!

"It's my family." He said out loud, knowing Hermione would be curious as to what he was seeing. "I can see my parents, smiling at me, I can see the love and pride in their eyes. And it gets better. Next to them is Sirius. I don't think I've seen him happier, he looks like he did in their wedding picture."

Hermione sat still on the table, tears slowly running down her face. That's so sad, I wish I could do something to help him. I've just got to give him some time and then get him out of here and tell Prof. Dumbledore where the mirror is so he doesn't come back.

Suddenly she noticed the door opening. Oh my god! Who is it? I'd better tell Harry before he admits more to a stranger. As she was about to stand up Hermione noticed a familiar red head walking in. Ron! Oh no! What should I do? Hermione was frozen on the spot as Ron entered, not noticing she was there.

"There's more," Harry, continued, oblivious to Ron's arrival. "It's obvious now what I'm seeing. It's everyone who's been like a family to me, together. Hagrid, Prof. Lupin, Prof. Dumbledore, Mr and Mrs Weasley, Bill, Charlie, the twins and..." Harry paused as he saw the next person and blushed slightly. "Ginny." He said more quietly.

What was that? Hermione thought her attention back on Harry. He's blushing! Does he like her? Oh my. This day just keeps getting weirder.

Ron also noticed the blush but decided to keep quiet for his friend's sake. I'm just going to ignore that, maybe he's just embarrassed he thinks of her as family....

Harry suddenly grinned as he noticed more people in his vision. "Finally, Ron and Hermione, I was wondering when I'd see you in here. Well, I didn't think I'd see that!" He laughed a bit.

"See what?" Ron said suddenly, forgetting he was giving his friend time alone.

"Ron!" Harry jumped as he spun around. "What're you doing here?" Harry's eyes darted to where Hermione was and in that split second he saw that she didn't want Ron to know she was there yet. Thankfully Ron didn't notice the exchange.

"You know exactly what I'm doing here, I'm very annoyed with you for taking advantage of me! But don't avoid the question, what's so funny about Hermione and me?" Ron asked.

"It's just, well, I wasn't expecting to see most of what I've seen so far and I didn't think that I'd see you guys, well, together.." Harry stated. "I mean I think you guys would be good together, but there you are, holding hands and hugging. I didn't realise just how much I wanted that!"

Ron smiled at his friend. "Thanks for the vote of confidence mate."

Harry relaxed a bit. "How long have you been there?"

"Long enough mate, long enough." Ron said.

"Did you find Hermione?" Harry said with a gleam of mischief in his eyes.

"No I didn't look. I don't know if I can." Ron said glumly.

"So still like her then?" Harry said. Come on, admit it again, she's here, if you admit it you'll have to do something about it!

"Like her! I thought you were listening to me earlier. I'm in love with her. More so every minute it seems." Ron said.

Yes! Harry thought as he flicked his eyes towards Hermione again, who had stood up and was smiling at Ron.

Ron, however, noticed Harry this time and, thinking it was Ginny, turned around to tell her off for coming in.

"I thought I said...." Ron's voice trailed off as he saw who was walking slowly towards him. Crap!

"Um, Hermione! Um, well, um, what I said earlier, when you heard, um.."

As Ron was mumbling and rambling on Hermione had closed the gap between them until she was standing in front of Ron. She reached up and put her finger to his mouth.

"Just shut up, will you." Hermione said, then, lowering her finger, she threw her arms around Ron's neck and leaned in to kiss him, taking him completely by surprise, until he kissed her back.

For the second time that day time stood still for Ron as everything he'd hoped for since the 4th year was coming true. They both felt as if they were flying as the passion and feelings they had both repressed for the sake of their friendship came rushing out into the open. Nothing could have stopped them; they were oblivious to everything around them.

Which was good for Harry. I'm glad they finally figured it out. He thought as he slowly backed out of the room, watching them the whole time. As he reached where the doorway should have been, Harry bumped into something solid yet moveable.

What's that? He thought. Slowly Harry reached behind him. His hand came into contact with clothes that surrounded someone's arm. Harry somehow knew exactly who it was and turned around to face her.

"Hey Ginny." Harry said sheepishly

"What's going on Harry? I'm so confused. Ron nearly ran me over earlier saying you were in trouble. Then we get here and you're just sitting in front of a mirror, which you were seeing things in." Ginny's voice quietened as she spoke. "Like your parents and Sirius, as well as my family!" Some of the passion came back into her voice and Harry smiled at her. She's pretty cute when she's annoyed. He thought.

"Then Ron starts talking about being I love with Hermione, which I knew by the way. But out of nowhere Hermione appears and jumps on him! You have some explaining to do." She said with a smile.

Harry kept smiling back, blushing a bit. "Ok, ok, it's a complicated story. Want to go to the lake and hear it?"

Ginny was a bit surprised at Harry's suggestion, but was eager to agree to it. "Ok Harry, let's go."

Harry shut the door behind him as he offered his arm to Ginny for the walk. "It all started in our first year, before you came to Hogwarts...." Harry's voice drifted away as he started talking to Ginny, something he'd found easier over the summer, her arm linked with his, both happy.

The noise of the door shutting broke the kiss between Ron and Hermione but neither seemed to notice their friends had left.

"I love you 'Mione." Ron said quietly.

"I love you to Ron, with all my heart." Hermione replied.

Ron looked between Hermione and the mirror behind her. "Did you look in the mirror or were you here for Harry?" He asked.

Hermione blushed slightly. "I came here first and looked, I had too, it's why I ran off after listening in on you talking."

Ron smiled and looked relieved. I know it's obvious now but it's still nice to know she didn't run off in disgust! "What did you see?" He asked. "It's only fair you tell me since you heard what I saw."

Hermione looked up at Ron's lopsided smile and blushed even more. I love it when he does that, he looks so cute. He does have a point though.

"I saw what could be the second happiest day of my life." She said smiling.

Ron looked confused. "The second? What's the happiest?" He asked.

"Today." Hermione stated as she leaned up to kiss Ron again.

Ron smiled. "Me too 'Mione." He said as he leaned down, completing the connection between them.

As they kissed, nothing else mattered. Not the dust, not the mirror, not even the blossoming relationship between their friends. They were lost in their own world, it was all that mattered. Cause all you need is Love.
