All Because Of A Bet
The End
"Oh just a little bet between me and Fred here. You like?" Hermione smirked again.
"You, what? Wait... had a bet? Against me?"
Fred stepped up and took it from there. "Yes, dear brother. You see, if she could get you to kiss her in less than 5 days she got 10 galleons and vice versa for her."
I opened my mouth and closed it over and over, trying to find the right words to say. I had been tricked, fooled, bamboozled, everything! Ugh! How could she do this? WHY would she do that?
"I guess you know how it feels now."
Something clicked in my mind and at that moment, I understood it all.
"Hermione, I am really sorry about that, but you never even gave me a chance to tell you."
She glared at me angrily and I stumbled back in surprise. "You WANTED me to know about that bet? How dare you!"
"NO! Wait, you're not listening. I mean, that the only reason Harry made that bet with me in the first place was to get me to have the courage to actually tell you.. that I.. that... that I.."
"Tell me that you what?"
"That I... that I..."
I coughed to rid myself of such a dry throat, wishing that either I had a glass of water with me or that I wasn't here at all, and proceeded.
"That I love you."
"Are you serious?"
Hurt flowed through me painfully as she laughed. This is exactly what I had not wanted to happen. I turned around and starting walking away, faster each time I heard one of her small strides toward me.
"Ron, wait!"
"What?" I screamed as I turned around causing her to collide with me forcefully and we both ended up on the ground in a mess of tangled limbs.
"I love you too."
"Really?"
"Yes."
I tucked a piece of hair behind her ear as I smiled and leaned up closer. I could feel her breath on my lips and feel their softness as they touched mine in a soft kiss. Happiness and passion seemed to float around us and I couldn't refrain myself from getting up and twirling her in my arms.
Somewhere far off, fireworks could be heard as well as a snickering pair of twins and the message in the sky sparkled brightly.
"Ron! You did this?"
I looked up and read the words before kissing her again and answering.
"In a way."
And I glanced up again. The words felt embedded into my heart and I kissed her over and over until night fell onto us darker.
"I love you, Hermione! Not I Lzve Yzu!"
A/N - I'm sorry I didn't update sooner, I know I probably should have, but thing had gotten somewhat hectic around here.
First off I want to say that anyone I told to IM me, I know need to be imed at sotrxsoadxrhcp... My other one, my password got changed and I have no idea who did it.
And also, I hope you liked the ending to this story. I do want to apologize for its suckiness... is that a word? suckosity? I'll go with that.. of the story. I didn't really plan it out too much so I just went along with it as I updated each chapter, which must have been a bad idea. Next time, I will properly plan it out and everything and I do plan to write much more in the future. Already, I have some little plot bunnies I am absolutely dying to write!
So I hope to see you all soon. Just email me if you ever have a story you wrote for me to read, or a story you want me to see, or even if you just want to talk! (xsotrx sbcglobal .net) No spaces of course.. In the words of Jack, Ha. Ha. Don't ask, I'm kind of hyper here. Must stop eating all the sugar in the house...
Ok well, later! Au revior!
