Understanding

"Your vows Mr. Weasley?"

"Oh, yes" Ron smiled, his hands still holding Hermione's in front of their friends and family, Mrs Granger and Mrs Weasley in the front row sobbing. The sun was on the beach outside of Shell Cottage , and he looked over at Bill, and Bill nodded at him in reassurance. You got this!

"The thing is Hermione, there aren't even words to describe how I feel for you, so I'm going to read to you a page of my journal from the summer of 1994. I hope it helps you to understand" he smiled at her, and dropped her hands. Hermione smiled back encouragingly, and he began:

" Ron Weasley 3rd of August 1994..

I just cant seem to wrap my head around it Hermione. I'm too young for this! Bill sat me down a few months ago and explained all the ins and outs of the teenage years, but I never even dreamed that they would arrive so fast, knocking me over as I go. Because I'm sitting here, looking at you, and I swear I have to remind myself to breath. Were in a garden full of daisies, lillies and some of the most beautiful flowers you would ever imagine, and yet all of these pale in comparison to you. I laugh as you wobble on your broomstick, trying, and failing to get the quaffle from Ginny. You throw your head back and laugh, and I'm stunned at the beautiful sight before me. Never in all my years would I have imagined that I would be having these- these.. feelings. Feelings I can't even describe. All I know is that when I look at you, I feel like me. And that's sort of strange isn't it? But if your not here, niether am I, because you take a part of me with you. The part that wants the try hard and impress you, the part that wants to tell you how much I care, and that when we fight I know its all going to be alright by that tiny little smirk you have on your face after you think you've won. I'd never admit it to anyone, but the way you boss me around keeps me reassured, that everythings normal, because no matter what, you will always be in my life. Whether it be as a friend or anything else, I'm safe as long as you are. Harry doesn't arrive for another week thank God-"

Ron stopped and threw Harry an apologetic look. Harry grinned and nodded, dismissing it.

"- because it means I get you all to myself for a short while. I caught the way my brothers were looking at you the other day, I mean, I have noticed your a girl, those legs, that bum-"

The audience laughed as Ron beamed back at his soon to wife.

"- and those bloody eyes. I hope you never find out, but one look with those eyes, and I'll practically do anything. If you said, 'Ron, go and lick Filche's boots', and looked at me with those gorgeous brown eyes, I'd be licking them clean for a whole damn month. It's wierd. This time last year, you were Hermione. My mate. Sure, we had boundaries that you and Harry didn't have, such as hugging and such, but I put that down to me not being a huggable person. But now I know I suppose. And there's no going back."

Ron looked up at Hermione, and tucked the piece of old worn out paper into his pocket. He took her hands.

"Darling, I've been waiting for you, all my life. And yet you've already been here"

A collective of gasps and sighs echoed around the surrounding area, and Hermione reached up and wiped a tear from her cheek.

"Do you... Ronald Bilius Weasley take thee Hermione Granger -"

"I bloody well do!"

Mrs Weasley tutted and laughed as the crowds laughed once more.

"Do you Hermione Jean Granger-"

"Yes!"

There were woops, cheers and claps as Hermione lunged forward and placed a passionate kiss on her husbands lips.

"If you could please raise your wands, and proceed to place the ring on the opposing persons right hand"

Ron coughed and both of them stood opposite each other, pointing their wands at the rings on the pillow being carried by George.

"Ron?" she whispered. He looked up. She leant forward and whispered in his ear:

"It's Levi-O-sa, not Levio-SA" she whispered. She pulled back and winked.

"Right you are Mrs. Weasley".
