What Do You Mean?
Ron's hand trembled as he looked at Hermione with hopeful, appealing eyes. She was staring back, but not at him. Instead, she was looking at the large diamond ring that he was holding, albeit shaking.
"Ron… I don't understand." Well, of course she understood, but….
Ron's heart seemed to sing at such a simple sentence; a statement that he had hoped not to be the first words to leave her after he had asked.
"I… er…." He made to quickly put the ring away, going red at the tips of his ears, as well as everywhere else.
"Ron, stop." Hermione gently rested her hand on his arm. She smiled. "Sorry, that was the wrong thing to say. I was just… surprised."
Ron was now blushing furiously. "Well, I thought it might be a good idea and you know, we've been together bloody long enough, and, well –"
He was silenced by Hermione taking the ring from him and slipping it onto her finger.
"Yes," she said.
Ron's face went even redder (if that was possible) and a smile appeared on his lips. "Right," he said. He stood up from one knee and Hermione wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him.
"Of course I will, you silly person." She kissed him again. "I love you, Ron."
Ron flushed with pleasure. "I love you, too," he said.
He was getting married. Him, Ron. Married.
