Something strange was going on with Ronald Weasly, and Hermione couldn't figure out for the life of her what was wrong.
For the past couple days he had been avoiding her. Hermione was...upset, to say the least.
"You'd think that on Valentines Day, your fiancee would do something special...but no, I just had to fall in love with insensitive Ronald Weasly." Hermione sighed, exasperated, before opening the door to the home she now shared with Ron.
"Ron-" Hermione called out, before smelling something...something good. Something with garlic and cheese and hints of basil.
The room was dark, lit by only candlelight. There was a wine bottle and a cozy meal for two.
And Ron-oh, Ron. All her nasty thoughts about him flew out the window. He was dressed up, and had a bouquet of roses for her.
"For you, Hermione. Happy Valentines Day," Ron said, grinning as he gave her the flowers.
Hermione gasped. This...was absolutely wonderful.
"Is this why you've been avoiding me these past few days?"
"Yeah, I didn't want you to notice me getting all the stuff ready," Ron replied.
Hermione was touched. This was the farthest a man had ever gone for, and she never expected this from Ron.
"I love you."
"Love you too."
