"Hermione, I'm sorry if I scared you, but would you come with me, there's something I want to show you." Ron said.
"Um, yeah, ok." She said whilst trying to flatten her hair. She quickly put on some jeans under her night shirt then headed for her window.
"Ron, could this car come a little closer to my house, because, well its just, I'm a little-" She was cut off by Ron finishing her sentence, "Afraid of heights."
Hermione blushed with Ron having known this information about her. She tried to look down so Ron wouldn't see her turning red. Ron moved the car closer to her house.
"Trust me Hermione." whispered Ron as he held out his hand for her. Hermione smiled and said, "Well I'll try to, this it just," she glanced down, "so high up." She reached out and took hold of his hand. He pulled her into the car and she sat in the passenger seat.
Neither of the two spoke much as Ron drove, or rather, flew, up into the sky. It was a clear night, millions of stars were visible, shining brightly above them. Hermione looked a little sick from being so high up and maybe from being alone with Ron late at night.
"Well Hermione, this is what I wanted to show you." Somehow, Ron had driven them to their school, Hogwarts. The school had been closed and no one knew if it was going to reopen. The school was right in front of them, and in every room of the school it looked as if there were lights on in the windows and silhouettes of people walking around carrying on like a normal, busy school day.
"Ron, how did you-?" asked Hermione.
"It's magic." replied Ron. "I just wanted you to see Hogwarts again, like how it was when we went there, when it was still-" Ron paused.
"Open." finished Hermione.
They both gave each other a faint smile. Hermione couldn't believe Ron had done all this just for her.
"Uh, Hermione, do you want to go to the wedding together, er, as friends I mean?" Ron asked quietly, turning red. She had no idea what to say this is the closest Ron had ever come to asking her out. Ron was starting to look worse by the second from her silence, so she said, "Yes Ron, I'd love to go together, as friends." But she wanted more and could tell he did too.
The next day, everyone was getting ready for the rehearsal dinner. That night, during the rehearsal, Ron and Hermione kept glancing at each other, but seemed to do it when the latter was always looking away.
The wedding would be held tomorrow and everyone had a feeling that it would bring lots of romance, and not just between the bride and groom.
