Author's Note: Readers, I'm sorry I didn't keep my promise and update everyday but something terrible happened on the 19th of December. My mom got sick and my father died of a heart attack. Then my mom went into a coma. So, I may not update in a while and this chapter I have to admit sounds a bit shitty but I'm trying to change that.

Dedicated to mom and dad!

Hermione's POV

I don't know why I told him I was forbidden because I'm not. My parents don't really seem to care about my love life. It doesn't matter to me though. I'm moving because I need to grow up. I need to spend some time to think about everything. I was reminded of one of Shakespeare's plays, 'Much Ado About Nothing'. This certainly was much ado about nothing. We were people mixed in lies and betrayal. This was so unlike me and Ron. I'm going to take some time out, get a little air and breathe it in. I remember what my mum used to always say, "If you can't stand the fire, stay out of the kitchen." That's what I'm doing. I can't stand the deception so I'm going to stay out of England for I while and try it again after some time. I think I just need to think more logically. I need to be reasonable and more trusting and understanding.

I sat alone staring at the fire. Ron is sleeping. I called in Ginny and Harry who I told my master plan. They thought it was as usual 'stupid'. Could they not use what they call 'bigger words'? I could understand if you said it is unnecessary but… let me not get off on one of my rambles. I thought of Ron and only him. I remembered what my mother said all the time, "Feel sorry for maga dog. Maga dog goin' turn 'roun an' bite yuh." That's why I was too proud because I felt if I felt sorry for him and took him back then he would stab me in the back again. Oh, shit! If I had followed my heart and not what my mother used to say this wouldn't have happened.

Harry asked. "Hermione, you are going to keep contact with everyone and visit on birthdays and on the birth of Ginny's and my baby?"

"Yes Harry. I promise I'll visit especially on your baby's birthday. I am her godmother you know."

Ginny asked, "How are you even going to know when to come for the birth of my baby? I want you here as soon as I go into labour."

"Ginny, when were you supposed to have your baby?" I questioned.

"I'm supposed to have the baby on the 19th June according to your test thing," Ginny replied.

"It's accurate. So I'll come from the 17th June." I said.

Harry said, "It was nice talking to you in person, Hermione. I hope we do this again soon. Ginny and I need some sleep."

"Okay," I laughed. They got up to leave.

I whispered, "Good Night, Harry. Good Night, Ginny. Good Night, my little goddaughter."

They laughed and left me alone sitting at the fire. I thought about my decisions and if I was using my heart to do this. I am so foolish. Why did I divorce Ron? I loved him but I left him? Why? Why was my life so screwed up?

The Weasley family excluding Ginny and Harry knocked on my door.

I whispered, "Come in."

Fred said, "Hermione, I see you and Ron have settled your arguments."

"Yes, we have. Why?"

George said, "Little Ronnikins came home crying like madness for a while, that is until Mum kicked him out. He was turning everybody so bloody miserable and nobody knew the bloody problem until little Ronnikins told Mum. Mum said it was that he is too…what was the word she used again, Fred?"

Mrs. Weasley silently scolded George and blushed as they recounted the story.

"Damn miserable and stubborn and none of this would have happened if it weren't for his stupidity because he knew you were a woman of pride and that you should never mess with a woman of pride and if Dad did what he did she'd have left his sorry ass the moment he raised his voice at her for something so stupid and also raising his voice at her," Fred finished.

Bill and Fleur with their kids, Charlie and his girlfriend of the month, Tasha, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Fred and George, andeven Percynodded in response. I said, "Mrs. Weasley was right." Everyone laughed. There was no hatred they were on my side. And I was scared to face his family. We had down and spoke like civilized people. It was all good. We drank butter beer and spoke about Christmas. It was midnight when everybody left and Ron woke up.

Ron kissed me but I pulled away. He said, "Why would you do that?"

"Ron, I am not forbidden and I'm not going to New Mexico. I just need a little break to relax myself. After all this drama I need a break. I need a two year break. Just that and I'm yours forever. I just thought I'd need to tell you the truth after all."

"It's alright, I guess. Hermione, is this, what you want?"

"Yes, Ron. I want and need a break. I'll visit on birthdays and special occasions. I promise."

"A promise is a comfort to a fool. That's what you tell me every time I promise you something."

"Ron, you have my word. I'm not going to lose you. I want you. I need you next to me but I want that to wait for just 2 or so years."

"Okay, Hermione."

I kissed him. He pulled away and said, "I love you, Hermione."

"I love you too, Ron."

After I got lost in those wonderful…no magnificent, beautiful baby blue eyes, we kissed each other. We loved each other so much but certainly it isn't enough because...

A note from the author: Thanks for reading. I will post soon and very soon. I'm not going to break this promise but as Hermione always says to Ron, "A promise is a comfort to a fool."

"A promise is a comfort to a fool."- Jamaican proverb (I don't know who made it up but I hear it is a Jamaican proverb) My parents used to say this.

"Feel sorry for maga dog. Maga dog goin' turn 'roun and bite yuh."- Another Jamaican proverb. My mom always told me this

Translations for people who don't understand pattwa: "Feel sorry for a skinny dog and it will turn around and bite you." You don't have to understand. It's just CRAZY but this is dedicated to my parents who always said these proverbs to me. (I'm Jamaican)!
