I will try to put those little things in. Even if I have already typed chapters I could go back and add those things! Thanks for reviewing!

TheDivaDivine: Thank you and I think so too. It can't be all fluff and no drama, there has to be some drama to add to all of the fluff.

LongLegs564: Thanks! Yeah Hermione did win! lol! You can join the Lavender hating club I'm thinking of starting! LOL!

RonsLuver: High School fights are funny! And they could be over the stupidest things! But that's why we love them, lol! Lupin/Tonks won't be in it as much as Ron and Hermione but there will be a nice surprise for Lupin and Tonks. Read on...

ronsluvergirl123: Yeah me too! It would be nice to have perfect guys like that but sadly we can not have this fiction Ron:( lol! Lupin and Tonks will be in it as well but not as much as everyone else. Hope you like this chapter!

No matter what Lavender or Parvati tries Ron will love her just the same and that goes for Ginny and Harry as well but the point that I was trying to get at in this was that they thought that Hermione and Ginny actually did look nice and that they did do a good job but are too airheaded to see it. Thank you for the suggestion. I would have done it last chapter but I did not have time to respond to everyone who reviewed. In the future I will do this if I have time! Hope you like this chapter!

One and Only

Chapter Five

The next morning Hermione was the first one awake. She saw Ron next her and noticed the blanket around them. Hermione leaned over and gave Ron a kiss. He was awake as their lips touched.

"Good morning." Hermione said cheerfully.

"It is!" Ron exclaimed as he leaned over and gave Hermione a kiss. "What time is it?" He wondered. Hermione glanced at the clock.

"Wow it's already twelve." Hermione said.

"We missed breakfast?" Ron asked incredulously.

"Figures that that's the first thing you think of." Hermione said. "But come on. If we hurry we can make it to lunch." She stood up and pulled Ron with her. They walked to the portrait hole and Ron walked behind Hermione with his arm around her shoulders.

"What's this?" Ron asked when he noticed a piece of parchment on the wall. He pulled it down.

Ron and Hermione,

Whatever you do, do not go anywhere near Seamus or Lavender, Tonks's warning. See you at lunch since you missed breakfast.

Ginny and Harry

P.S.: Lupin is still here. Guess he "spent the night."

"Didn't need to know that last part." Ron said with a shudder. Hermione laughed.

"I know what you mean. Come on, let's go." She took his hand and pulled him out of the portrait hole. First they went to their dormitories to change. Ron purposely put on one of the shirts that Hermione got him this time with some jeans and a sweatshirt. Hermione had noticed that the weather was getting chillier so she put on a pair of jeans with a dark blue shirt and a matching jean jacket. She slipped her feet into white sneakers and met Ron in the common room.

"You look nice." Ron said. She smiled.

"Thank you and so do you. I see you're wearing another one of the shirts I got you." Hermione said.

"Yup." Ron said. "And this time on purpose." Hermione laughed and pulled him toward the portrait hole.

"Come on let's get you some food." Hermione said. As they entered the Great Hall they could feel Lavender and Seamus's eyes on them. Ron and Hermione ignored them and took their seats next to Harry and Ginny. "Morning." Hermione said cheerfully.

"Afternoon." Harry corrected.

"What did you do last night?" Ginny asked in a joking voice. Hermione laughed.

"Get your mind out of the gutter!" Ron exclaimed. "And which one of you sickos wrote that lovely note?"

"That would be me." Ginny said with a laugh.

"Next time I would prefer not to know." Ron said with a grimace.

"Well you would have seen anyways he's right over there." Harry said, pointing to where Lupin and Tonks were sitting.

"Great!" Ron exclaimed. "Thanks to you I will be permanently scarred for life! Thoughts that I do not need!"

"No it could be worse like if I were talking about your mum and dad –" Harry started.

"Don't finish your sentence!" Ron said. "I've already lost my appetite!" He groaned as he pushed his food away. Harry's eyes went wide.

"That's a shocker!" Harry said. Hermione laughed and pushed Ron's food back to him.

"Eat." She told him. Ron turned to her with a look of mock shock on his face.

"Excuse me." He said in mock offense. Hermione smiled.

"I said eat before I shove all of this food down your throat." She joked. Ron laughed.

"Alright, alright if you insist." Ron said. Hermione laughed and ate her own lunch. After lunch they decided to go see Hagrid and then they separated. Ron and Hermione went for a walk. Hermione interlocked her hand with Ron's. They spent most of Sunday like that and relaxing in each other's company before they had to deal with another week of school. That night when Hermione went up to her dormitory she completely ignored Lavender and the extra loud comments and went to sleep peacefully.

Monday morning was tiring after a good weekend. Lupin finally had to go home and Ron and Harry were able to start the day off with two free periods. Ron insisted that they go to the paper office.

"What did you have to do in here?" Harry asked. He was sitting at Ginny's desk with a piece of parchment, trying to write out Quidditch plays.

"I just wanted to go over some stuff and make sure everything is ready for Sunday." Ron said as he looked over some papers at Harry.

"You have like six days!" Harry said. "Wow this is different. You really did change." Ron put down his papers and looked offended. Harry looked at him expectantly, waiting for a reaction.

"I didn't change." Ron said quietly as he started going over the papers once more.

"Your telling me that you really would have done this before you started dating Hermione?" Harry asked.

"No, because before this all happened I wasn't dating her. It's not like it's homework." Ron said. "But look at what your doing. You are going over Quidditch plays and that's what you want to do with your life while I want to be editor of the Prophet. It's different but it's the same. I'm not doing it because Hermione changed me, I'm doing it because I want to." Ron said.

"Alright you've got me there." Harry said.

"Yeah." Ron said. Harry ended up making some good suggestions for the paper and Ron did the same with Quidditch plays. They were playing chess when Hermione came in after her Ancient Runes class. She didn't have as much books but she put them down on the desk and looked at Ron. Ron was concentrating hard on his turn. Hermione walked behind him and motioned for Harry to be quiet about it. Harry watched in amusement as Hermione poked Ron in his sides. Ron jumped feet in the air. Hermione and Harry laughed. "Next time a hello will do." Ron said.

"Hello." Hermione said.

"Hi." Ron said as he sat back down. Ginny came through the door and out her stuff down on her desk. Harry got up to greet her. "Here Gin." Ron said as he took a big stack of letters from his desk and handed them to Ginny. "I've spread the word about the advice column and got these letters back. You'll have a mailbox outside of the office and that's where they'll be. You can answer at least ten by Wednesday right?" Ron asked. Ginny took the stack of letters and put them on her desk.

"Yeah, no problem." She said. Ginny started looking through the letters.

After spending their free period doing homework, making Quidditch plays, answering letters or going over stuff for the paper and going to lunch, they walked into Defense Against the Dark Arts. Tonks greeted them cheerfully as if nothing happened Saturday. When Hermione took a seat Lavender made an extra loud comment about Ron. Harry and Hermione both rose from their chairs because what she said was really offensive but Ron took them by the shoulders and pulled them back to their seats.

"Just ignore her." Ron said. "She's trying to get you mad."

"I'm trying but Miss I Can't Keep My Big Fat Mouth Shut, won't keep her mouth shut!" Hermione said loudly. Lavender smirked sarcastically at her and flipped her off.

"That's enough!" Tonks said. "Now today we will be working on duel tactics. I want two people to come up to the front and show me how to properly disarm someone. Everyone stand up and go to the side of the room." Everyone got up and stood to the side of the room. Tonks raised her wand and the desks went nicely to the other side of the room. "Now I need two people. How about Hermione and…" Tonks looked around until her eyes rested on Lavender. "…Lavender." Tonks said. Hermione smiled at Lavender and pulled her wand out of her robes pocket and walked up to the front, followed by Lavender. They stood to face each other. "Now wands at the ready. And on the count of three send your disarming charms." Tonks said. Hermione and Lavender glared at each other. "One…" Tonks started. "Two…three!" She exclaimed. Before Hermione could do anything Lavender sent a jinx at her.

"IMPEDIMENTA!" Lavender shouted. Hermione was knocked back by the force of the spell. She groaned with pain. Ron went to rush over to her but Harry held him back.

"Let her deal." Harry said. Ron watched as Hermione got up as if she was in no pain and shot the same curse back at Lavender and then when Lavender stood up (not as gracefully as Hermione but showing how much pain she was really in) Hermione sent a stunning one at Lavender but she ducked and it just missed her. Lavender sent the stunning one back at Hermione but she also ducked just in time.

"I said disarm!" Tonks said loudly over the growing cheers from the class. Hermione stepped to her left and avoided another jinx and then pointed her wand at Lavender.

"Expelliarmus!" Hermione exclaimed. Lavender's wand flew out of her hand. Hermione smiled triumphantly. Majority of the class clapped.

"Well we got there eventually." Tonks said. "Nice disarming charm Hermione. Ten points to Gryffindor and you two may go join the rest of the class." Hermione walked back to her spot next to Harry and Ron. Lavender limped over to her wand and then back to her spot.

"Nice job!" Harry exclaimed.

"Yeah it was!" Ron agreed. Harry patted her on the shoulder and she slumped down.

"Ow!" She said. Ron and Harry helped her up onto one of the desks.

"What happened?" Harry asked.

"Being flung into a wall leaves a few marks." Hermione said. Ron put an arm around her. "Ow, not there either." Hermione said. Ron took his arm off of her.

"Any volunteers to show a stunning charm?" Tonks asked. Seamus and Ron glared at each other before thrusting their hands in the air. "Alright, Seamus and Ron come on up!" Tonks said, beckoning them forward. They walked to the front and didn't need to be asked to stand at the "ready" position. "One…two…three!"

"Stupefy!" Seamus exclaimed.

"Protego!" Ron said as he heard the words come out of Seamus's mouth. The two spells collided with fury. "Stupefy!" Ron exclaimed. Seamus was hit with the spell and fell to the floor.

"Nice one!" Tonks said. Ron beamed. "That was a very good demonstration of a shield charm as well as a stunning one. Nice job Ron!" Everyone in the class got a chance to practice a jinx or hex. "Alright, this past week I've been pretty lenient with your homework but I'd like an essay on the rules and safety of dueling due next Monday." Tonks said. Everyone shuffled out of class but Tonks asked Harry, Ron, and Hermione to stay behind. Hermione managed to get off of the desk with Ron and Harry's help. Tonks approached them. "Are you alright Hermione?" Tonks asked.

"Yeah but it was worth it." Hermione said with a laugh. Harry and Ron smiled as well.

"This doesn't change anything though." Tonks said. "I still want you to leave them alone and that means not talking about Lavender's big fat mouth during class." Hermione sighed.

"Yes." She said. Hermione then noticed something shiny on Tonks's finger that had not been there yesterday. "Are you and Lupin getting married?" Hermione asked. Tonks held up her finger and showed them her ring.

"Yeah!" She said excitedly. "He proposed last night before he left!"

"That's great!" Hermione exclaimed as she gave Tonks a hug. Ron and Harry congratulated her as well. Tonks looked like she had more to say but they didn't hear anything else about it.

The three of them told Ginny after their Charms class in the Head common room about everything that happened in Defense Against the Dark Arts.

"Wow, how long have they been dating for him to propose?" Ginny asked.

"I dunno." Harry said.

"Well nobody knew right?" Hermione asked.

"Actually if you think about it the last time we saw them was at Harry's birthday party and they did seem kind of different." Ron said.

"Yeah and I noticed that they were hanging around each other more." Harry said.

"So maybe everyone knew but us." Ron suggested.

"Yeah." Hermione said. "That's seems reasonable." Ron smiled because Hermione was agreeing with one of his ideas.

"But why?" Ginny asked.

"Dunno." Ron said. Hermione and Harry shrugged in agreement.

On Wednesday everyone gave Ron their articles, pictures, or letters. He used his free period while Hermione was in Arithmacy to go over them and to write the editor's letter. Everything seemed fit and Justin and Padma handed in ads to put in the paper. There were some for Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes and other businesses like that that they had written to and asked if their business wanted to be advertised in the paper. Ginny managed to answer ten letters and Ron found that she didn't do a bad job. He managed to get through most of the articles that people handed in before heading to class.

On Friday Ron had to assign everyone's job for the second issue.

"Ok so does anyone have any ideas for the next issue?" Ron asked. Everyone had pulled their chairs in a circle and taking notes on what they were supposed to write. Zacharis Smith raised his hand. "What do you want Smith?" Ron asked rudely.

"I think we need to elect a new editor. I mean no one had a say in who got to be editor so I think we should vote on a new editor." Smith said. Ron scowled at him but before he could answer Ginny did.

"Get over it Smith. Ron is the editor and McGonagall picked him to be it and you will never be editor so let it go." Ginny said angrily. Ron smiled at her to thank her.

"Fine, but I want the front page story this time." Smith said. Ron sighed.

"Alright but next week someone else can be on the front page. It'll rotate." Ron said. "How are we on Quidditch?" Ron asked Hannah.

"We won't have the first match for a few weeks so I was thinking of doing a short little piece on each of the captains in the next few issues until the first Quidditch match." Hannah replied.

"Sounds good." Ron said. "Ernie and Denis you two have already told me what your writing and Smith tell me what you want to write after and it has to be first page quality. Whoever needs a picture for their article can talk to Colin. What about the ads what do we have for that? Any new places to advertise?" Ron asked Padma and Justin.

"We were thinking of putting something in the paper and if someone at Hogwarts wants to advertise than they could put their advertisements in the paper." Justin said.

"That's a great idea. And Ginny you did a good job with the letters. Can you have fifteen next time?" Ron asked her.

"Yup." Ginny said. "But how am I only supposed to answer fifteen I have like fifty in my mailbox?" She asked.

"If you want to answer them all you could and I could give you your own page but I still need them by Wednesday." Ron said.

"I could do that." Ginny said.

"So we're pretty much done here any questions?" Ron asked. Nobody said anything. "Alrighty then we're done here so get to work." Everyone went back to their own desks. Ron started to fix the layout of the paper. The door opened and Hermione walked in.

"Hello." Hermione said.

"Hi." Ron responded, not looking up from the papers.

"Sorry I won't bother you, I just came to say hi." Hermione said.

"No, It's alright. I just wanted to make sure that I got everything done so that I didn't have to spend Saturday here." Ron said, looking up.

"Well you get back to work and I'll see you at lunch." Hermione said as she bent down and gave him a kiss before walking toward the door. Ron looked at the door with a look of guilt on his face. Ginny noticed it.

"Don't worry. Hermione only came to say hi. She's probably on her way to the Head common room to work on her book." Ginny assured him. Ron smiled when he realized this.

"Yeah she is." Ron said. "Her birthdays coming up soon." Ron pointed out.

"What are you going to get her?" Ginny asked.

"I'll find something in Hogsmede for her. The first trip is right before her birthday." Ron said.

"Yeah me too." Ginny agreed.

"And Harry?" Ron asked.

"He already got her a present." Ginny said.

"When?" Ron asked.

"When we went to Diagon Alley to get the school stuff he got this book that he saw her looking at. He decided to get it out of the way because he knew that she really wanted it." Ginny said.

"Oh yeah." Ron said. "I remember he told me."

"Yup." She said. When they were working on the paper they seemed to loose track of time and only when Harry and Hermione came in they realized that it was time for lunch. Everyone left for lunch, leaving Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny.

"Ron are you coming?" Harry asked.

"Yup, just give me one second." Ron said as he was writing hastily on a piece of parchment. Hermione smiled at him.

"I like this side of you Ron. I never thought I'd see the hard working side of you." Hermione said. Ron took a second to look up.

"You like it though right?" He asked.

"Oh yeah total turn on!" She said. Ron smiled and then looked back down at his paper.

"Come on I'm hungry!" Harry complained.

"One second." Ron said.

"You said that one minute ago." Harry said. Ron didn't answer but after two minutes he was still writing. Harry and Hermione looked at each other before walking behind him and lifting him by the arms.

"Hey I'm almost done!" He said as they pulled him to the door.

"And you can be almost done when we get back." Ginny said as she held the door open for Harry and Hermione to get Ron out.

After lunch Ron barley gave Hermione a kiss before he hurried back to the paper office.

"He really does love doing that." Hermione said as she saw the back of Ron's robes fly around a corner.

"Seems so." Harry said.

"You should have saw him at the meeting this morning." Ginny said. "Very different Ron than we all know." Hermione smiled deeply, staring at the spot where Ron left. "And you, apparently, find that hot." Ginny said. Hermione blushed and Ginny and Harry looked to her expectantly.

"Well I can't say that I don't like it when he's being all concerned about his work." Hermione said. Harry and Ginny sniggered. "But he is still the same Ron. He still falls asleep in class and does his homework last minute and cares about Quidditch obsessively."

"And you too." Harry said.

"What?" Hermione asked.

"He cares about you too. That hasn't changed about him either." Harry said. Hermione smiled and blushed.

"Well I have to get back to the office. I promised Ron that I would answer all of the letters." Ginny said.

"Why?" Harry asked.

"Well it's hard to just pick fifteen letters. I'd feel bad if I didn't answer one." Ginny said.

"Your too nice." Harry said as he pulled her in for a hug and kissed her. "But that's what I love about you." Ginny smiled before walking off to the office. She sat down at her desk and looked at Ron working hard at the same thing he was before. When she laughed Ron looked up alarmed.

"What?" He asked.

"Nothing." Ginny said with a laugh. She turned to her letters. Ron shrugged and went back to his work. Ginny glanced at him and laughed.

"What?" Ron asked again. Ginny shook her head and tried to stop laughing. Most people were looking at her.

"Could you keep it down?" Smith asked. "Some of us are trying to work!" He said angrily.

"Shut up Smith and get back to work!" Ron exclaimed. Smith glared but turned to his work. He seemed to be afraid of loosing his job. Ron turned to Ginny to ask her what was she was laughing at but the door opened and McGonagall walked in. Ginny immediately stopped laughing and went back to answering a letter. McGonagall walked over to Ron's desk.

"Mr. Weasley do you have the sample paper for me." McGonagall asked.

"Right here." Ron said as he handed her a paper. "And you can have my seat I was just going to help Ginny with something." Ron said as he stood up and walked over to the next desk.

"Thank you Mr. Weasley." McGonagall said. Ron looked furiously at Ginny.

"What was that about?" He whispered. Ginny smiled.

"It was just funny to see you working." Ginny answered. "And Hermione thinks it's hot." She said. Ron blushed and looked at the letter she was answering.

"How many did you answer?" He asked, changing the subject.

"About half." She answered. Ron raised his eyebrows.

"Keep up the good work." He said before wandering over to Ernie's desk. "How's it going?" Ron asked him.

"It's going great!" Ernie answered. "I really like the paper. Who's idea was it?"

"McGonagall suggested it after I told her that I wanted to work at the Prophet. I had to pick the name and figure out jobs for it and all." Ron replied.

"Well it's going really good." Ernie said. "Don't listen to Smith, he's just mad because he isn't in charge of it." He added.

"Yeah but that's not the whole reason." Ron said before walking to the next desk. He made the rounds around all of the desks and then went back to his own. Ron found that McGonagall had stopped reading and was watching him.

"Well Mr. Weasley the first edition of the paper seems very in order and things around here seem to be going smoothly. I especially like the advice column." McGonagall said.

"Thank you Professor. And Ginny is going to answer all of the letters so we're going to have a whole section for that in the next issue." Ron said.

"That's a good idea." McGonagall said. "And what about the Quidditch reports?"

"Hannah is going to do a biography of the captains in the next few issues." Ron responded.

"Well everything seems to be under control. When are you having these printed up?" She asked.

"I'll have them done by tonight and they'll be ready for Sunday." Ron said.

"I'll leave you to your work now since everything seems under control." McGonagall said.

"Yes." Ron said. McGonagall left and Ginny looked to Ron happily.

"Excited for Sunday?" Ginny asked.

"Yeah it'll be alright." Ron said with a smile.

On Sunday morning after a long practice on Saturday Ron walked into the Great Hall with Hermione's hand in his. At the doors the Creevy brothers were handing out copies of the paper.

"It came out great Ron!" Denis said.

"Yeah. You did a great job." Colin agreed as he handed Ron a paper and then Hermione.

"It wasn't just me." Ron said. "But thanks." Harry and Ginny took their papers and the four of them walked to their seats. Ron watched as Harry, Ginny, and Hermione disappeared behind their papers. He looked around the hall and noticed that most people were absorbed behind papers with the headline flashing: Hogwarts Herald across the front. He smiled broadly. Dumbledore caught his eye and smiled before hiding behind his own copy of the paper. Ron laid his paper out in front of his plate and started eating as he looked over the paper for what seemed like the billionth time. After breakfast, Hermione asked Ron to help her with some books and they told Harry and Ginny that they would be right back.

"Strawberry smoothie." Hermione said. She walked into the common room.

"Where are the book –" Ron started but Hermione but him off by grabbing his face and kissing him hard on the lips.

"I am impressed on how hard you worked on the paper." Hermione said before pulling him in for another kiss. Ron smiled into it.

"I might start working harder on everything if it gets you this turned on." Ron said.

"Defiantly!" Hermione exclaimed as she pushed him on a couch and sat atop him.

"So you liked the paper?" Ron asked as she kissed his neck. She murmured an agreement. They fooled around for a bit until they went outside to meet Harry and Ginny. They were almost to the door when Tonks rushed past them, into the nearest staff bathroom clutching her stomach with one hand and the other one was over her mouth. Ron and Hermione stopped in their tracks and looked at the closed door. They heard retching sounds and grimaced. "What do you reckon is wrong with her?" Ron asked.

"I don't know but she hasn't looked too good this past week." Hermione said.

"Maybe she's sick." Ron suggested. Hermione shrugged as the door opened and Tonks walked out looking worse.

"The paper was really great Ron." Tonks said as she clutched her stomach.

"Thank you." Ron said.

"Are you alright?" Hermione asked. Tonks was just about to respond but she felt the sickening feeling come up again.

"Excuse me!" She said as she covered her mouth and ran back into the bathroom. Ron and Hermione exchanged worried looks.

"She must really be sick." Ron said. Hermione looked skeptical.

"I think…actually…uh… maybe she isn't sick, she seems pregnant." Hermione suggested. Ron looked shocked and then a thought occured to him that he had been thinking about for a while but had never found the appropriate oppertunity to ask it.

"But then if it's Lupin's than won't the baby be half werewolf too?" Ron asked.

"No, the baby will be human." Hermione said, having read about it. "It'll be a metamorphagus though." Ron was still looking shocked at the door but grimaced when he heard retching.

"Do you think that's why he proposed?" Ron asked. Hermione shrugged.

"Maybe." She said. The door opened again and Tonks walked out. "Tonks do you want to go lay down?" Hermione asked. Tonks nodded.

"Yeah, I'll see you guys tomorrow don't forget your homework." Tonks said before walking in the direction of her room. Ron and Hermione looked at each other and started walking toward the door again.

"So you think she really is?" Ron asked.

"Either that or she ate some really, really bad food." Hermione said. They found Harry and Ginny outside underneath the usual tree that they sat under. Ginny was in Harry's lap.

"What's wrong?" She asked when she saw their faces. They sat down and looked at each other once more not sure if they should start saying stuff they were unsure of.

"Nothing. I just almost fell and Ron caught me. It was close." Hermione said. Ron nodded in agreement.

"Alright." Harry said unsurely.

For most of the day they just hung out until dinner. Ron got complements on the paper from practically everyone. He was beaming and Hermione watched him, smiling herself.

A/N: So please let me know what you think and I will try to update for tomorrow but I don't know because I have to go to my uncles going away party! Love you all sooo much!
