Harry woke up and looked around, attempting to identify his surroundings. Right, he
had gone back to the Weasley's after a few days at Privet Drive. The only reason he had gone
back to his muggle home was to make sure that his protection charm was recharged, not that it
would do much good anymore, not since Voldemort had the same charm He looked up at
Ron's sleeping face from the floor where he was staying.
Ron suddenly sat up (scaring the living daylights out of Harry in the process), and said,
"S'amatter, couldn't sleep?"
"Yeah, its just a bit chilly down here," Harry replied. And it was true, he was quite
cold.
"You can come on up here if you want, mate," Ron said, somewhat tiredly. "I don't
mind so much."
"I couldn't take your bed," Harry said.
"No, come on up, we'll share it."
"You sure?"
"No problem."
So Harry got up and crawled into Ron's bed. It was still rather chilly, so Harry got
under the covers. Ron fell asleep quite quickly. Harry studied Ron's face closely now. He had
never noticed how beautiful it was until now. It would be so easy to kiss him...
Harry shook his head. What was he thinking! This was Ron Weasly, his best frind
since day 1 at Hogwarts. He couldn't just kiss him!
Well I'm still cold, Harry thought, so rather than kissing Ron, he settled for just
pulling himself closer and cuddling. This way, even if he wakes up, it won't be wierd. I mean,
if I went back onto the floor, he would be insulted, so I'm sure he wont mund if I just pull him a
little closer..
Harry soon fell asleep with Ron held in his arms. Unfortunately for Harry, however, it
was Ron who awoke first the next morning.
"Um, Harry..." he said, poking Harry slightly to wake him up. "Do you think we could
move just a little bit?" Harry had fallen asleep with his legs wrapped around Ron's, and his
arms interlocked around Ron's back. He had inadvertantly pushed Ron's shirt partway up,
exposing his shaven chest, upon which his head was resting. His mouth was placed over Ron's
right nipple, and Harry had inadvertantly been sucking on it gently for a few minutes now.
"Please?"
"Wha?" asked Harry, still groggy, not understanding what was going on. Then all of a
sudden, his head spapped up and he jumped away from Ron. "I'm so sorry, I can explain, well
not really, but I'm sorry anyway couldyoupleaseforgiveme!!!!???"
"Ummm..." Ron said slowly, buying time to translate exactly what Harry had just said
into comprehensible english. "Well of course I forgive you, mate," he said a few minutes later.
"SO tell me, did I taste good at least?"
"How do you want me to answer?" Harry asked, feeling quite strange to be on the
defensive for once.
"Truthfully," was Ron's answer.
"Truthfully?" Harry repeated. Well he had asked for it. "You tasted incredible, and
you were so warm and comforting. Oh, and don't worry, I didn't do anything else, I swear! I
didn't even kiss you."
"Ron blushed and looked away, while he muttered something under his breath.
"Could you say that again?" Harry asked.
"Nevermind," Ron said quickly, turning evn more red.
"No, really. Tell me," Harry replied.
"I said that its still pretty early if you want to do a little bit more."
"Are you... are you serious?"
"Well, yeah..., I mean why not? Right?"
Harry looked at Ron and tool a step forward, sliding his hands up the back of Ron's
shirt. "You're sure you dont mind?" Harry asked, stopping partway up with his hands on Ron's
shoulders.
"Harry, I really do want this. I've wanted this since probably the third year, since you
chased after me under the whomping willow when Sirius broke my leg and dragged me to the
shack. When you nearly killed Sisius for me, I saw you totally differently from how I used to. I
wanted you. I really wanted you, Harry," Ron replied, wrapping his hands around Harry's
waist. He leaned forward ever so slowly, until their lips just barely touched.
"I've wanted you since fourth year. Remember when we had that arguement during the
first task of the tri-wizard tounament and we weren't talking? I missed you so much, and when
we made up, I just wanted to kiss you, but I couldn't, not in front of everybody. I..."
