Chapter Five: I will personally oblivate myself

Lily pressed her hand hard enough on his chest making him unable to get up. The last thing Ron remembered was fainting and then what happened, he was so confused. Why was he with Lily and did they do it?

"No." He screamed waking up Lily.

"Can't you let me sleep for a while?'' Lily asked stretching.

"What happened between us and why am I in bed with you?" Ron asked getting up and tying the bed sheet around his body.

''You are not naked, you silly silly boy." Lily said laughing out loud as he covered his body.

Ron peeked into his sheets and saw that he was wearing clothes and turned red as he was embarrassed. He looked down at his feet as he was unable to face her and asked."What happened last night?''

"You fainted on my shoulder and I tried waking you up but to no avail. So I had to use magic to carry you here." Lily said smiling at him.

"Is this the head's common room and does James Potter know I am here?" He bombarded her with questions.

"No, we are not in the head's common room and Potter and his gang doesn't have a clue about you. We are in the room of requirement." She said to him.

"So we did not?" He asked turning red again.

"Didn't what?" She asked casually as she adjusted her dress revealing her bra.

Ron didn't answer but kept staring at her as she adjusted her dress.

"Ron, you are staring at me again." She said to him.

''Sorry'' He said looking at his feet again.

"Now tell me who are you and how are you related to Arthur and Molly?" She asked motioning him to sit next to her.

Ron sat next to her hesitantly and stared into her beautiful green eyes."You know you have beautiful eyes." Ron murmured.

"Please, get to the point." Lily said blushing.

"How can I tell you? It will change everything." Ron said shaking his head.

"Please explain so that I can understand." She said taking his hands in hers.

Ron closed his eyes and gasped. "You are making me feel bad."

"Come on, tell me." She badgered him.

"I am from the future." Ron whispered barely audible to her.

"You are from what?" She asked him checking whether what she heard was right.

"The future" Ron repeated with a lump in his throat.

"You are kidding, right? Time travel is not possible." Lily said shocked as she tightened the grip on his hands, making him wince a little.

"I am not lying. Look at his." Ron said removing his hands from her and producing the time turner from his pocket.

Lily looked bewildered as he presented the object before her. She had read about this in numerous books but this was the first time she was actually seeing it. "May I?" She asked as she slowly examined the object as if it was fragile or something.

"Is this actually a time turner?" She asked still unable to believe him.

"It is." He said handing it over to her so that she can examine.

Lily carefully examined the object and studied with such carefulness that it reminded Ron about someone making Ron feel homesick and tears started to form in his eyes.

"Hey, are you alright?" Lily asked seeing him beginning to tear up.

''Yeah, I am." He said wiping the tears with his sleeves but tears were still running down his freckled nose.

"It's alright; I will try to send you back home." Lily said hugging him tightly.

"It is not that." Ron said staring at her as more tears formed into his eyes.

"What is it?" Lily asked stroking his cheeks and wiping his tears using her handkerchief.

"Nothing" Ron murmured unable to look at her face.

"Come on tell me." She said ruffling his hair.

"It is very difficult to explain what happens in the future. It may change everything." Ron protested.

"It won't, you can oblivate me if you want." She said wiping his tears with her hands now.

''But what if everything changes, what if you remember?'' Ron asked hugging her suddenly.

Lily understood him and hugged him back. "I will personally oblivate myself if I remember."

Ron hugged her tightly and started crying on her shoulders.

"It's alright, take your time. Tell me when you are comfortable." Lily assured him by patting his back.

Ron lifted his face from her shoulder and stared into her eyes again for a while before clearing his throat."Listen carefully what I am going to tell you, you will be shocked to hear things but listen calmly and react later. Please assure me you won't run and tell James about this." Ron murmured as if it was a secret.

"I assure you." Lily promised him.
