Ch. 2 – The Surprise
"Ok hurry, she's here" Ron said as the room full of people who only minutes ago were alive with chatter and friendly banter became deadly silent. "Ron you here?" came Hermione's voice as she stepped in the door "Fuck why is it so fucking dark in here?" Hermione asked as she flicked on the lights "SURPRISE" yelled the room full of people. Hermione grinned as she heard "Happy Birthday Hermione" from many of the various people jammed into her small flat. She looked around the room to see Ron, Bill, Charlie, Fred and George all standing beneath the large banner which read 'Love Ya Mione'. Arthur and Molly, were standing a few feet from their sons next to Dean and Seamus, who seemed more than interested in each other. Familiar faces from the Hogwart's years were smiling at Hermione from around the room when Hermione spotted the one she had been looking for "And there he is, Ladies and Gentlemen the great Harry Potter" Hermione thought as her eyes linked with the man who had come from the boy she used to love "god he is gorg…" Hermione's thought was cut off; do you know how shocked you have to be to cut off a thought? Hermione stared as she watched the fun flamboyant redhead she had learned to love as a sister, wrap her arms around Harry's neck and kiss him warmly on the cheek, not 'long time no see' kiss on the cheek but, 'I cant wait to get home with you' kiss on the cheek "oh god, its too late" Hermione thought as she fought her way to the stairs "Thank you everyone" she said hoping no one would see her holding back tears, "just let me go freshen up" she added as she dashed up the stairs.
((( 15 minutes later )))
"Hermy, Hermy, are you still up here?" Hermione recognized Ron's voice as she lifted her head from her now soaked pillow "I'm here Ron" Hermione answered in a cracked voice as she tried to dry her tears, and relieve the puffiness in her eyes "Hermione, what's wrong?" Ron asked as he rushed to her side and cradled her head on his shoulder as he had done many times at Hogwarts. "Oh Ron, I was so happy when I saw him and then I saw her, and I love her to bits but I want him so bad" Hermione bawled into Ron's shoulder "There, there Mione. I know it hurts but there's nothing we can do about it, their happy, their married for god sakes" Ron said as he rubbed her back soothingly as he held her in his arms. "Oh Ron why does this still hurt, its been 5 whole years, I'm smart, successful, I like where I am and who I am so why do I still dwell on my one mistake?" Hermione asked as she looked into Ron's warm eyes "Because you love him Mione" Ron responded before kissing her on the nose and helping her up "Now, lets find you a nice outfit k?" Ron asked as he strode towards the closet. "How bout this" Ron asked as he held up a white cotton dress with small yellow rosebuds on it "I don't know Ron…" Hermione answered as she eyes the dress "Common Hermy, show him what he's missing at least" Ron said as he tossed the dress Hermione's way and went off in search of shoes.
Harry's POV:
"God she looked amazing" Harry thought as he watched Hermione going up the stairs. "Harry, come over here I want to show everyone what our rings do when they get close together." Ginny called from across the room motioning him over to the gaggle of girls in awe of Ginny's ring. "On my way" Harry said as he reluctantly started off towards Ginny after a final glace at the spot where Hermione had just disappeared.
(A/N: I'm a really big fan of a very specific type of thing on this site I like the following;
LONG fan fictions… that means it has to have lots of chapters (hard to find)
Harry / Draco
Hermione / Harry
Harmione / Ginny
Ron / Hermione
Minerva / Albus
And James / Lily
If you read anything really good like that tell me please I'm always looking for good stories! Thanks!)
