A/n: I want to thank everyone who has reviewed this story. I am trying to update some regularly so everyone can enjoy this story! I have been working five days a week and usually come home pretty tired, but I am wanting to finish this! I am also working on yet another companion piece to this series. Let me know if you want it.
Hermione adventured down the streets of Diagon Alley. All her note said was "Go see Tom." She could tell she was nearing the end of the game because Ron was running out of places to send her. Each note had lost a poetic sense of structure but yet there was still excitement to know what Ron was really up to. She entered the Leaky Cauldron and went up to the bar to see the bartender himself.
"Ah, Miss Granger, I've been expecting you." Tom greeted her, "Ron Weasley left this for you!" He handed her the note.
To the princess of my heart,
Go home and get ready,
For at eight o'clock,
Meet me at the dock.
Love,
Ron
Hermione smiled but the silently wondered where was this dock.
'C'mon Hermione think. The dock… There was a dock at Hogworts but would he really send me back there? No… The burrow there by the pond!'
Hermione went back to her apartment excited that she had figured out the riddle. Crookshanks went to greet his mistress but was disappointed when all he received was a pat on the head.
"Sorry crookshanks," Hermione gently said, "I've got to get ready for Ron and I only have an hour!" Hermione quickly grabbed a potion bottle labeled "Hair Tamer", a make-up bag, a robe and took a quick shower before applying all of her supplies on her. She headed out of the bathroom her hair in a pony tail with her bangs curled, she headed to her bedroom to pick out an outfit. Since she knew they were going to be outside she didn't want to ruin a special dress but she didn't want to look under dressed either. After looking through her closet twice she came across the perfect outfit. A pink tank top and a pair of slacks, she smiled at how nice the outfit complimented her. She looked at her watch she had just enough time to put on some perfume and go to the Burrow.
Ron ran down the stairs nervously muttering "What if she say no?!"
"As long as you don't do anything stupid she'll say yes!" His mum's voice came from the kitchen. "Now your food is all here, I do hope you have something extra special planned. Not that this isn't special enough."
"Yes mum I do, now if you don't mind I will be waiting for Hermione by the pond." Ron smiled at his sense of timing he walked out of the burrow with the picnic basket as the sun began to set. It was going to be perfect. It was almost as if the weather itself planned on Hermione and Ron having a romantic night tonight. It wasn't too hot nor too cold, the sky was clear so they would be able to watch the sun set and stargaze. Just hopefully he wouldn't say anything stupid this time.
