It was early in the morning and Ronald Weasley had planned to surprise his steady girlfriend Hermione Granger, however at the precise moment that he had put the bacon in the pan to cook, Ginny appeared in the middle of his kitchen with a loud CRACK.

"Hello, dear youngest older brother of mine" she greeted.

"What do you want Ginny?" he asked crankily

"I just popped in to say hi. Hi" she responded

"Ginny, what do you want?" he asked again.

"Fine, I can't have a nice friendly conversation with my favourite brother" she said sweetly, so sweetly that it sounded fake, but he was oblivious to that.

"I'm your favourite brother?" he asked.

"You will be if you can look after Teddy for Harry and I today, we both have the day off and want to spend it together alone." She said looking evil "Please Ron" she asked with puppy dog eyes so he couldn't refuse.

"Ginny, what day is it?" he asked.

"Um, Wednesday, I think" she responded, and then she thought for a bit longer "Oh, right you and Hermione and ring" she put all the pieces together "ok, I'll go ask Bill, and annoy him" she said before disapparating.

After Ginny had left Ron thought about the fact that he planned to ask Hermione to marry him, he had it all planned out; surprise breakfast, some snogging practise, a nice lunch, and a romantic moonlight picnic on the beach in Brighton where he would ask her to marry him, and if all went to plan some more snogging.

Suddenly a smell stopped his thoughts, it was the bacon burning, he tried to save it but it was already too late under his breath he started cursing Ginny, and planned to hex her the next time he saw her with birds (he learnt that from Hermione), and his imagination was running wild until he heard Hermione…


"Ron what is that smell, what's burning?" she asked with concern.

"Nothing" he said quickly as she descended the staircase.

"Ron, what did you do?" she asked shaking her head.

"I was making you breakfast as a surprise, but Ginny distracted me" he replied

"Ginny? When?" she asked surprised

"Before, she apparated and then went back to Harry" he said

"alright" she said confused then took the frying pan from him "Ron I'll make breakfast then to avoid more burning" she said gesturing in all directions for the smell.

"Bloody Hell, I am going to kill Ginny!" said Ron

"Ronald, language" Hermione scolded. Then she continued making the breakfast unaware of what was going to happen that night…


That night Hermione and Ron had eaten the fish and chips on the beach and they were laying on the blanket watching the stars;

"The stars are so beautiful Ron" admired Hermione

"You're even more beautiful than them 'Mione" stated Ron, then he got on one knee and she sat up. "Hermione Jean Granger, you are the most beautiful woman in the entire world to me, I have known you for almost ten years. Yes we have fought and made up, we have been there for each other in times of need, and in some times of happiness and ruined it for each other but deep down, I really love you. I have made some mistakes but will you please make me even happier than I am with you by marrying my?" he asked holding out the ring.

"Yes, of course I'll marry you Ron" she said before he put the ring on her finger and they had a very long, passionate snog under the stars. After they concluded Hermione admired her ring "I love you too, you know that right?" she asked and Ron nodded to her" Your speech was lovely, darling" she added.

When they got home the reality set in for Ron and as he realised that he Ronald Bilius Weasley who had burnt the bacon this morning had now gotten the girl of his dreams to agree to marry him he said "Bloody Brilliant!"

Up in a couple of days, I know this isn't really bacon related but I felt I needed a bacon story not really featuring bacon at all.
