A/N: Well this is going to be my last and final chapter for this story. I hope you all will be able to review future stories that I have written.
Insanity-of-the-owl: You're almost the first one to always review. And for that I give you the first to review award. JK! You know I love you.I don't know about the whole sequel thing. I usually don't like to do it. I mean that I've never done a sequel because when it's the end of a story it's usually the end of a story. Although it's not a bad idea. I just like it when Ron and Hermione get together and make that the end. Strange huh?
Esrb99: If you were actually able to read Hermione's thoughts then she would be the scrooge guy. Ron has to figure Hermione out all on his own, without any help.
Hali: I'm glad you like my story. So WELCOME!!! And I don't have much else to say except for keep reading my stories.
Airhead14: I could have done it that way but I chose to take it at another approach.
Dominic's girl: What words are you talking about? My brain is a little faulty this morning. I guess I should start writing this chapter. Only I'm not entirely done with my shout-outs to the people that I love.
And WELCOME!!!
Suckr4romance81789: Whoa! I just now got the whole number thing on your screen name. It's so cute. It is suppose to be a little joke right? Because if it isn't then I really need to lie down.
Orli-enthusiast: Yea my favorite foreigner is back! No sadly I have not seen Troy. Because it's rated R so I'm going to have to wait until it's on TV, which won't be for a while. ORLANDO BLOOM IS HOT.
ThinkingOfaName: Oh! I'm so sorry. I get confused easily. And I'm also really quite gullible. Which isn't good for my health. Because I'll believe almost anything. Actually fell for the 'gullibe's written on the ceiling' trick. However it may seem ten will be my last chapter.
Lady-Mearle: Sorry but this is going to be my last chapter. I hate to break it to you this way. Although I do appreciate all the encouragement. Maybe I will write more next Christmas. Because I obviously have to get it done before Christmas because nobody is going to want to read it after Christmas.
Goldenflower: Just like I told Lady-Mearle I'm probably going to do it next year. You know with the whole writitng a sequel thing.
Loonykins: Obviously I won't be deleting this story. Especially now that I have received so many woderful reviews.
Kessem: Sorry I don't mean to make the chapters to short. I try to make them as long as I possibly can.
RedMary9790: I'm glad you decided to put my story in your favorites folder. I'm really going to miss all the great reviews I have gotten for your stories.
Ronluver 2005: You have the best timing because I was just about to post this chapter. Love you!
So let me ask you guys something. What did you all think of the whole Menaulasu, Helen, and Troy thing from the kids? I just thought it would be a good idea since Hermione was the daughter of Menalaus and Helen. Besides J.K. might have done the same thing anyway.
And now it's time for my last chapter.
Chapter 10: Christmas Day
"Ron wake up… it's Christmas!" Shouted Harry taking the sheets off of Ron's bed and jumping on it in order to wake Ron up.
He grunted and said, "What day is it?"
Harry gave Ron a disgusted look. "Have you been listening to anything I've said? It's Christmas you moron."
Sitting up so fast that he could have had whiplash Ron got out of his bed, "It's Christmas? Oh my gosh it's Christmas? That means that Hermione's not married to Krum and she doesn't have three kids. And I know she loves me. I'm going to go tell her how I feel."
Ron grabbed a gift from under his bed and bolted at the door at top speed. Harry just sat there stunned wondering what kind of a bizarre dream he had.
He tumbled downstairs and found Hermione sitting by herself over by the fire… reading. He went over to where she was sitting and jumped onto the sofa as well. "Hi Hermione!"
To Hermione's surprise he had a gift for her. But why was he in such a good mood. He could have been skipping in joy.
"Here Hermione! I brought you this gift!" Ron gave Hermione a neatly wrapped present? Now this was really weird. And where did Ron learn how to wrap a gift?
"Is this for me?" Hermione asked as Ron nodded quickly.
After unwrapping the gift Hermione gasped as she lifted the fragile doll out of the box. It was a porcelain doll. The very thing he had wanted when she was a kid. This was more than she can take. Tears were streaming down her cheeks. "I don't know what to say!"
Ron cupped her cheeks with his hand and whispered, "you don't have to say anything. I just wanted you to have the perfect gift. And I want you to know that I will always love you more than anything else in the world. That's right! I love you Hermione Jane Granger." And finally it happened, he kissed her. It was the most beautful thing in the world. The kiss was full of passion that came out in the years that they have kept it a secret.
Hermione gently broke away. "I got you something also."
"You got a gift for me?"
"Yeah you didn't think I'd let you get off the hook did you?" Said Hermione smiling and going behind the couch to retrieve something. "Here!"
"Is that what I think it is? How did you know that this was the exact thing that I wanted?" Asked Ron as Hermione wheeled a muggle bike over to him.
"I have my secret ways!" Replied Hermione mischievously. "And what about you and this doll that must have cost you a fortune?"
"Let's just say that I looked in on your past a little bit." He said leaning in for another blissful kiss.
From the boys staircase stood a black haired green eyed boy watching the happy moment. "I knew it would work. It's about time he did something about it."
A/N: I hope you have all enjoyed that chapter. I know it's not very long. But you know how it is… right? Anyway my mom needs the computer so I gotta go. I love you all any please keep reading for future stories.
