The Weasley family was a huge hustle and bustle in the household. Everyone was passing food, drinks, and magic. The dinner was marvelous and it couldn't have gone any better, at least Hermione thought so at least.

When she first introduced Tom to the family, it was quiet for but a few seconds until everyone tackled him. They questioned him, and they were excited to have another new student going to Hogwarts in just a short amount of time. Molly inquired on whether he had gotten his letter yet and he did just the day before. They questioned about his books, clothes, what type of wand he had gotten, who his favorite quidditch teams were, and it was just a huge roar of activity.

Tom was overcome with different emotions. He didn't know what to think. He never had anyone so interested in him before.

They were now located outside playing different wizardry games. It seemed Tom for the first time in his life, was actually enjoying himself with others. Well, enjoying without causing others pain.

Hermione kept her eyes on Tom just watching him interact with the family.

"You know, when he goes to Hogwarts you won't be able to spend so much time with him. Are you prepared for that"?

Hermione looked at her husband and sighed. "I know Ronald. It's just I feel like we are finally gettin somewhere and oh Ron he does adore his wizard lessons. His first lesson with the tutor is next week and I'm a bit anxious for it."

Ron sat down and drank a bit of the fire whiskey in it. He chuckled at her. "Don't be. You said so yourself he is a smart boy. How is he doing anyway"?

"Wonderful," she beamed. "His wand techniques are perfect so far and he's interested in making some potions. Moreover, he has been doing just that wonderful. He usually gets them on the first try if not the second". He is so thirsty for knowledge and he is doing the best he can. It just makes Hermione's heart soar with pride.

"You two have been spending an awful lot of time together, I'd say he is attached to your hip," he stated teasingly. However, in his head he knew it was more than that.

Hermione rolled her eyes and playfully smacked him. "Jealous are you"?

Ron laughed and leaned in so their foreheads were touching. "Yes I'm afraid I feel quite neglected. Care to remedy that later tonight"? He smiled a crooked smile.

It was Hermione's turn to laugh. "I don't know, I guess you'll just have to..." she paused for dramatic effect, "catch me," she whispered and took off.

Ron was shocked for but a minute before he saw her curly hair bounce away as she ran across the yard.

"Hey!" He chuckled and chased after her. Times like these made him love Hermione even more. Not like, he could. He already adored her so much. He ran after her, even ran in circles around the tree a couple of times before she took off again in another direction. He barely managed to catch the sleeve of her dress before she slipped away again.

Ron once again caught up with her and was just about to grab her as she ran into the house. However, Ron found himself tripping and falling flat on his face. People laughed at that and others ran up to him and asked if he was okay?

"I'm fine," he rubbed his head and laughed. "I must have just tripped over a rock or something. And you know I'm clumsy sometimes." He laughed and the others did as well. Others told him he should stay away from the fire whiskey for the rest of the night and he agreed.

Hermione called from the back porch that it was time for desert and some of the members strolled right on in. Ron stayed back though. He had a haunch on what happened but just didn't voice it. He turned his head and looked at the gardens where the other children were playing along with Tom. They were asking him questions about his pet snake and they both stared into each other's eyes. Tom's eyes were glued to his. Ron found himself taking a step back. It was intense the power he was feeling. Almost consuming really. Tom's face was blank but Ron could read his face.

A kid, by a simple tripping jinx, just bested Ron Weasley.

Oh poor Ron. What is going to happen next I wonder? Oh wait, I'm the writer...I know what is going to happen but I promise I'll have the next drabble up quick.
