A/N: I easily could've given up on this, but thanks americangirf2517 and Emmett's Chickie-Babe for your support, you keep me going!
'The movie was great,' Ron said guiltily, 'er…what's its title again?'
'Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince,' Hermione furrowed her brow, 'honestly, you're just so hopeless.'
(A/N: so the story turned out to be AU…by the way, have you seen the movie? Was it good? :D)
You're just so hopeless.
You're just so hopeless.
You're just so hopeless.
Hermione's words rang in Ron's head again and again.
If his heart regretted asking the movie's title and making himself look stupid in front of his crush, his mouth definitely did not show it.
'Nah! I was just wondering if the title is Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince or A Half-Blood Prince And Harry Potter,' he saw Hermione scowled at his denial (oh, even her scowl can look oh so adorable) and continued, 'I bet I know the movie details better than you.'
Ron was the kind of guy who would not hesitate to argue with the girl he liked and made her mad, but somehow, just could not admit his affection for her.
Harry decided to put a stop to Ron and Hermione's usual bickering and suggested that the four of them should come out for a movie again next week.
Ginny beamed at Harry's suggestion and wondered what she should wear on their next double date. Her train of thoughts was stopped by her brother.
'Again? No!' Ron exclaimed.
Ginny was about to voice out her disagreement (if Harry wasn't there, she would have punch him), but Hermione was faster.
'There you are, making no constructive suggestion and yet criticizing others. You can't even stand watching a movie with me, right? Just the sight of me sitting next to you in a cinema bothers you. Is this what you think?' She was suddenly disturbed and Harry thought he sensed a trace of hurt in her voice.
Ron replied, 'No, that's not the truth! That's not what I mean at all! I was just thinking, wouldn't it be boring if the four of us go to a movie again, like today? Why don't we…do something new…say…like…split.'
Then he further explained that in order to show that he truly would not mind having Hermione beside him during a movie, the two of them should go for a movie while Harry and Ginny could go as another pair.
Throughout the years, Hermione had always felt that Ron had something against her and it was like their fate to keep arguing with each other. She always felt ready to do so. But at this particular moment, she didn't know how to. And she wasn't even sure if she wanted to anymore.
Is he…asking me out?
It felt as if Ron was pointing his wand at her, and she was prepared to counter a deadly curse, but what came shooting out from the tip of Ron's wand happened to be a bunch a flowers.
'Oh, come on! Say yes! You were the one who complained about Ron not wanting to watch movies with you. But see, he wants to and you just can't be the one who reject the offer now, right?' Ginny said. Ron suspected her motive behind helping him was getting to spend two hours alone with Harry.
'Alright…if that's what he wants,' Hermione replied, like the way she did last time when Harry asked her to go out for this double date.
'Well then, it's all settled. See ya.' Ron said casually as if he didn't really care. But Harry knew better. He knew Ron would be humming love songs throughout the coming week until Ron's first real date with Hermione finally came.
He wouldn't mind that much though, he had Ginny's date to look forward to.
A/N: So Ron finally gets his dream date! I'm happy for the four of them! BUT not too happy with this chapter…it's not as interesting as the previous ones :( is this what you think so too? REVIEW anyway, please!
And this chapter IS the ending…Yes, since Ron gets what he wants, right?
By the way, anyone interested in an Epilogue? It'll be better than this :p
Did I mention that this chapter is the end? Oh yeah I did…well, a tiny little part of me kind of want to carry on with it…
anyway, thanks for reading :)
