A/N First of all I would like to thank fake-truth86 for my first review EVER : ) it made me feel all happy inside lol…I'm not quite sure if it's gonna be a Ron-Hermione story but it should be something along those lines…I'm just typing it as I go…and yes they will get longer I promise : )

Disclaimer: No, I do not own Harry Potter, if I did I would be in a fabulous mansion in Cali. Soaking up the sun by my private pool…not here in Wisconsin in the freezing cold /

Hermione took a deep breath. Why was she nervous? Sure, she was excited to see Ginny and the rest of the Weasly family…except for Ron, she was a little nervous about seeing him. The last time she talked to him he told her how he felt about her, lets just say, he wanted to be more than just friends. True, Hermione did like him in that way too, she was just scared. She wasn't sure if she wanted to risk the relationship she had with Ron. It was too precious to her.

Needless to say, she did spend a little extra time (2 hours to be exact) getting ready. The makeup that was usually abandoned on her dresser collecting dust was now on her face, covering her "imperfections". She had forced her hair to become manageable, making the frizzy mess transform into natural-looking curls. Her outfit was simple; She had her favorite faded jeans on along with a plain white tank top. She looked pretty good if she did say so herself.

She knocked on the door but as soon as she saw who opened it she had an urge to run as fast as she could in the other direction. It was none other than Ron Weasly himself. He had a surprised expression on his face, Hermione wasn't sure if that was good or bad.

"Um…hey," she said, being a tad nervous, ok REALLY nervous.

"Holy Hell Hermione!" Ron almost shouted, "What happened to you?"

'Oh no' she thought 'I went to overboard, does it really look that bad' once again the urge to run in the other direction but she resisted.

"What do you mean?" She responded, her voice was soft and scared. WHY WAS SHE SCARED? 'stop it Hermione just stop!' she yelled to herself 'he's just a boy! A STUPID BOY! ITS RONALD WEASLY…YOU'VE BEEN FRIENDS WITH HIM SINCE, WELL…. FOREVER!'

"You look…" he paused, "amazing."

It took Hermione a couple of seconds to realize what he just said. Did she really look amazing?

"Um…thank you?" she said questionably. He just laughed.

"Ginny!" He called, "Hermione's here!" As soon as the words left his mouth Ginny came bounding down the stairs and pulled Hermione into a hug, then pulled away to look at her, the way a mother would when her daughter would come back after a long period of time.

"You look fantastic" she said, "Why the change?" she then asked, a smirk upon her face.

Hermione shrugged her shoulders, "No reason really." No she knew the real reason, in fact the reason was bringing up her suitcases to the guest bedroom right now. It was RON! RON, RON, RON, RON, RON!

"Hermione you are such a bad liar!" she said laughing, "Who's the guy?"

"Um…" Hermione hesitated, could she tell Ginny about liking Ron? Sure, she was her best friend, but Ron, he's her brother. "I'll tell you later OK?"

"Fine," Ginny replied a fake pout on her face but it soon disappeared, "Ok it's later!" she said. Sure it was later, 5 seconds later. Hermione was more leaning toward the 5 years later, maybe the 5 centuries later.

"Ginny…" she said in a serious tone.

"Oh please Hermione! Just tell me!" she begged while Hermione just shook her head no.

"Please, please, please, please, please?" she said, Hermione sighed. She couldn't take it anymore!

"FINE GINNY IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW IT'S RON!" she yelled as a shocked expression filled Ginny's face but it was soon replaced with a smile

"Do you know what this means Hermione?" she said almost whispering, "If you get married we can be sisters!"

Hermione just shook her head and laughed, "Get your head out of the clouds, you know that's never going to happen."

"What's never going to happen?" A voice at the top of the stairs said. Ginny and Hermione looked up to see Ron descending down the steps.

"Nothing," she and Ginny both said in unison. "But just out of curiosity, how long were you listening to our conversation?" Hermione asked. He better not have heard, if he did, she would kill Ginny. He wasn't supposed to find out!

"Oh, just long enough," he replied with a wink as he walked into the kitchen. Hermione stood there, her mouth gaping open. Had Ron just winked? The quiddich training must have gone to his head. Apparently his new body came with a new ego. Not that Hermione minded, in fact, she kind of liked it.

Then it all hit Hermione like a big brick falling from a 26-story building that she just happened to be walking next to. He liked her. Heck…he WINKED at her! She could feel her face turning red. 'So much for the saved friendship' she thought as she and Ginny headed up to her room to talk about things, more specifically Ron. 'This is going to be a very long conversation' she thought.

A/N Well that's chapter 2 for ya! Hopefully I'll get more reviews…not that yours wasn't great fake-truth86 lol! This one is significantly longer than the last one and I already have ideas for the next one…this stuff is just too much fun : ) lol so please R&R it would be greatly appreciated!
