Chapter XXXVII
"Ron, listen, that was a vengeance".
"Vengeance?"
"Yeah. Remember when I made Malfoy and Parkinson have a fight?"
He nodded.
"Well, do you remember that I told Malfoy that being kissed by him would be a nightmare?"
"Yes" he answered, confused.
"He took my words literally. The only thing you saw was Malfoy treating me like crap once more"
He shook his head. "No, Hermione. I know it's not true. You kissed Malfoy back and..."
"Kissed him back?! Are you crazy?! He grabbed my hands. I tried to release myself, but I couldn't!"
"But you went to talk private with him. And Parkinson is really mad at you"
"That pig must be nuts if she thinks I have something to do with Malfoy!"
"No, she's not. She might be a pig, but she's not that stupid"
"Of course she's stupid!"
"She knows he wants you. And I thought that, when he called you after Hagrid's class, he was thinking about asking you to go with him to Hogsmeade"
"What?!"
"That's what I thought"
"And... how do you know he wants me? Where did you..."
"He told me".
Hermione could not believe her ears. "He what? What do you mean?"
"He told me you belong to him. And..." Ron lowered his eyes.
"How dare he... Malfoy must be mad". She looked at him. "And what, Ron?"
"He told me to... stay out of the way".
"Out of the way?!" Her face was red of anger, and tears were rolling over it.
"Hermione, I don't think you should fight your feelings, I mean... I now it's Malfoy, but... if he loves you and you love him..."
"How many times I'll have to say that I DON'T LOVE MALFOY!" She yelled.
"Hermione..."
She looked at him. She saw that tears were also rolling over his face.
"I know you love him. Why you keep lying? Don't you see how it's hard for me?"
"Ron, what I..."
"I just... I just want you to be happy"
"I'm telling the truth" she said, almost begging.
"If it's true, why he said I shouldn't be in the way? You should have given him hope, otherwise..."
"But I didn't... I didn't"
"So I don't understand anything now. Why he said that to me?"
Hermione looked Ron in the eyes. She never thought that his blue eyes could be more beautiful when they were wet. "He said that cause of this". She held Ron's head and pulled it to her. Shortly after, her lips were over his. She passed her arms around his neck and held it tight.
At the first minute, Ron didn't know what was happening, but suddenly he understood that Hermione was kissing him. He kissed her back, but his brain was not working more than that. He kept his arms along his body, but his knees were shaking.
She dreamt for so long with that moment and now it was happening. She never thought how Ron's lips were soft, or how his kiss could be so good.
Ron thought he was dreaming and that Harry was going to wake up him at any moment, but he didn't want to wake up. He didn't want to wake up anymore.
Hermione loosed her arms and gave two steps behind. "See now why I'm not in love with Malfoy?"
Ron's mouth was opened. "Bloody hell!" He was staring at her. "Did it... did it really happen?"
"I... I'm sorry. I shouldn't... you were driving me mad with this story and..."
She couldn't say anything more. Ron stepped towards her, held her head with a hand and her waist with another, pulled her to him and covered her mouth with his. Hermione took a few seconds to understand what was happening then embraced him.
It was magic, more than the word itself. They were floating, but their feet were still on the ground. The world was full of noises, but they were deaf. They were breathing, but just because it was mechanical. Hot and cold inhabiting the same body at the same place. The only thing that existed at that moment was them.
They were staring at each other.
"Ron, what..."
"You're the girl, Hermione".
She was confused. "Girl? What girl?"
"The girl I love". He smiled.
"I...". She was crying again. "I... oh my God! You're serious?"
He nodded.
"Oh, my God!" Hermione started laughing. "Is it happening? I don't want to wake up".
He passed his hand over her wet face. "My Hermione... Oops! Can I call you mine?"
She smiled. "Always".
He kissed her again.
