Wrote this for my Harry Potter Facebook page awhile ago, so I decided to make it a chapter on here.
Ron sat in the common room, doing potions homework. He glanced over at Hermione, who was reading, since she already had her homework done. She looked up and caught him staring at him, and huffed.
'I should really go apologize...that way we could get back to how we were...' he thought to himself.
He got up and sat next to her on the couch.
"Hey Hermione." he said, somewhat nervously.
"Hello, Ronald." she said icily.
"I just wanted to say... I'm sorry."
"Ronald, I don't have time for your childish... Wait, what?" she asked, taken aback.
"I'm sorry for being such a jerk after the Ball. I guess I was just..."
"Just...what?"
"I guess I might've gotten a little jealous..."
"Of Viktor?"
"Yeah. But I guess I'll just have to accept your decision."
"Um, Ron, me and Viktor have decided to be just friends. I would've told you, but we weren't exactly on speaking terms until just now."
"Oh. Why'd you decide to be just friends?"
"Because there's someone else..."
Ron's body tensed. "Who is it?" he asked, trying not to go red.
"You."
"M-me?" he asked.
"Yes, Ron. You."
Ron thought for a moment. Hermione bit her lip, worried.
"I mean, if you don't feel the same way, I understand..." she said, gathering her things, stood, and started to walk away.
Someone caught her hand. She turned to see Ron standing behind her, lightly grasping her hand. He tightened his grip, and intertwined his fingers with hers.
"I do feel the same way, Mione." he said, smiling down at her.
She smiled, too, and hugged him. After a moment, they pulled back a bit, and stared into each others eyes. Ron slowly leaned down and trapped her lips in his. They broke apart, and smiled.
"I love you, Ron."
"Love you too, Mione."
Not very good, but... And sorry for the long wait!
