Why?

January 18th 2005

Ron Weasley

It's been 4 days since Hermione left me at the altar. Only one thing matters in my mind right now-why? Why had she left me? Have I done something wrong? Have I said something wrong? Why? I wanted to find her, question her but I couldn't bring myself to do so. If only I know why. Everything would be so easy. But then, whoever said love was going to be easy? It's never a smooth sailing when it comes to love.

"Hermione?" I called as I apparated into her apartment.

Hermione was watching TV in her living room. Or so I thought. I shook Hermione's shoulder and she immediately screamed. She was dozing off when I had awoke her and it didn't help that her TV was playing loud blasting music. When she saw it was me, she hung her head.

"It's you," Hermione said.

"We need to talk," I announced.

"About what?" Hermione asked.

"Us," I answered shortly.

"Ron, sit down," Hermione offered, patting the couch next to her. I took the seat and leaned forward.She backed away and I got the hint. I sighed.

"Hermione, please tell me the truth. Why did you do this to me? How could you?" I asked her silently.

I know I shouldn't sound so desperate but she had meant the world to me. Having her with me was a period of time I would never forget. She was so perfect sometimes I felt that I don't deserve her. Now, I'm certain I'm not fit for her.

"No! You're not bad! Not at all!" Hermione said laughing.

"Then?" I asked, flinching at her laughter.

Her expression turned serious. I knew this was it. I prepared myself for the words that are going to crush my heart.

"Everyone has a chance to fall in love. I didn't. I thought I was in love with you Ron, but that day at the church, I realized I wasn't in love with you," Hermione explained.

Those words hit me hard at the face. She hadn't love me after all. All these years, she made me think she loved me and I'm stupid enough to trust her. All these years of dating, ended, just like that. All those planning of the future, ended just like that. I shook my head, refusing to accept what's happening to me. But what's done cannot be undone.

"I see," I mumbled weakly. I apparated back to my apartment. I threw myself onto the bed and hit the pillows hard. I'm hurting badly! How can I not hurt when she told me all these years she wasn't actually in love with me? She ripped my heart and left it there to bleed. My thoughts drifted back to the past.

"Ron!" Hermione giggled.

"What? I just wanted to wipe that stain on your neck!" I said though I am laughing too.

We were both having a small picnic beside the lake at Hogwarts. It was sixth year and the exams were over. We had one last visit tomorrow to Hogsmeade before school ends 2 weeks later.

"You're fighting for a lost cause! You know perfectly well I'm ticklish at that spot!" Hermione said faking to be angry but couldn't help laughing.

The effect was pretty amusing. How Hermione can look angry but happy at the same time wasn't something you get to see everyday.

"You look so adorable," I said sincerely.

"But I don't wanna look adorable! I wanna look mature and intelligent and-"

"And exactly like a geek," I finished that sentenced.

"Really? I'm a geek? Well, I guess geeks shouldn't be dating non-geeks so it is over!" Hermione said.

Her expression was serious when she picked up her bag and left the lake to go back to the common room.

"And Ron, when you go to Hogsmeade tomorrow, my favourite flavor for chocolate at Honeydukes is mint," Hermione called.

I grinned. I knew she wasn't serious.

My nice little flashback ended when Fred and George just apparated on top of me.

"This is damn too good! Where's our camera?" Fred said loudly.

"Yeah, won't want to miss the moment Little Ickle Ronnie cries on his bed," George added.

"Fred! George! What the hell are you doing here?" I asked them.

"We're fine thank you," Fred said, ignoring my question.

"What's up crying on your bed? Where's your wife?" George asked.

"Sorry we missed your wedding; business is flying rocket high!" Fred said.

"Wait a moment, Hermione isn't here, Ronnie's crying on his bed, I'm afraid to tell you Fred, we got ourselves into more than we expected!" George exclaimed.

"Now that you've got the brains and figure out what's happened here, get out!" I yelled at them.

"Forget that we visited!" George said before apparating away.

I threw my pillow and it hit the wall. I need her; she's the only one that I can tolerate with! I'm going to find out why she left me. I'm going to make her regret doing this to me! Suddenly, I felt as though an evil monster is igniting from inside me. I'm left trapped inside that monster.

Everyone has a dark side Ron, a voice in my head said.

And I'm exactly the dark side you need to win this battle! The same irritating voice said again.

"SHE IS GOING TO PAY!" Ron screamed at the top of his lungs.


A/N: Okay, I have to admit; it's short, but I promise! The next chapter will be much longer! The holidays start in 3 days which means there's two days left for school. I'm going to school tomorrow to get stuff done and collect my year-end results. I'm most probably not going the day after because I have to stay at home and update of course! Now since I'm already talking, let's keep talking shall we? Unfortunately, my sis also happens to have holidays so we'll probably be fighting over the computer which means I can't spend a lot of time writing because I have a life too! I'm probably going to update at least once a week so no worries! Well, since they're so short I can do it one chapter a day but I don't wanna boast. It's short and I'm trying to make it 5-7 pages next time. This is 3 ½ pages in MS Word not including the a/n. I don't know how it looks like in the site because I can't find my own story even when I'm not logged on! Well, stop babbling to me and stop reading to you! I'd better pray for some reviews and you'd better review!

Love
