"OK..." Ron said clapping his hands loudly to get the whole crew's attention "Let's roll... ready!" He turned to call Hermione who was in a conversation with Seamus and Dean "Hermione... Get Sonia".
"Yeah, Ron!" She said turning around and walking off to the vanity van.
"Hurry, please!" He called out.
"OK" She said quickly getting into the van "Sonia... Shot ready!" She said but stopped midway looking at Sonia's appearance, wearing tight skinny jeans and a white tank top "This isn't the dress, is it?"
"What is it, Hermione?" Sonia asked, her back towards Hermione and wiping her eyes.
"Is there a problem?" Hermione asked cautiously.
"That depends on Ron" Sonia said sniffing "Can you please call him?".
"OK... Sure." Hermione said doubtful before she exited the van and reached Ron.
"Let's finish the Jip Shot first" Ron was discussing the shoot plans to the assistance before Hermione interrupted.
"Ron, Sonia wants to talk to you in private. She's calling you to the Vanity van" Hermione said pointing back at the said van.
"Why... what's the problem?" Ron asked impatiently.
"Just go!" Hermione whined.
Ron looked at the assistant guy "Just two minutes... I'll come" he said quickly going into the vanity van "Hey, Sonia... what happened?" He noticed that she wasn't ready yet.
"I don't know..." She said leaning back against the wall, her hands crossed over her chest "The shoot, the vanity van...they are reminding me of what, I wanted to forget...".
"What are you saying?" Ron frowned confused.
"Remember, you humiliated me in front of everyone?" Sonia said referring to the incident when he slapped her on their last shoot together.
"Sonia... It wasn't my fault..." Ron casually explained "I slapped you because of what you did".
"I don't know, Ron. It is bothering me. No one has ever humiliated me..." She said still not changing her mind off.
Ron sighed "That's over and done with...Why think about it now...".
"OK... OK, right..." Sonia nodded, wiping her face with her tissue and turned over to face Ron "Let's just be professionals and let's do this".
"Great!" Ron said relieved "Change into your costume and let's start rolling... OK..." He said smiling and about to open the door when Sonia opened her mouth.
"Before that, you need to apologize..." She demanded.
Ron took a deep breath, his hand clenching "I told you. It wasn't my fault. Why should I apologize?"
"You have to..." Sonia said in disbelief.
"And, if I don't?" Ron asked, gritting his teeth.
"Why wouldn't you apologize...? You will say sorry...! Or else I'll leave" She replied smirking arrogantly "The shoot will stop and no one will ever trust you with another commercial".
"Are you threatening me?" Ron said scoffing "You think you're scaring me Who are you to say it...? I will say it myself...I will not shoot this commercial with you!" He shouted angrily before slamming opening the door and getting out, he walked over to Hermione "Hermione... Tell Seamus we've wrapped!" He said trying to walk away.
"Relax, Ron" Hermione said catching him up by his hands "What happened?"
"What do you think...?" He snapped before Sonia furiously walked out of the van "Ask her yourself!" He said facing away.
Hermione ran after Sonia "Sonia... Sonia, please wait!"
"How come no one is talking to him...?" Sonia yelled angrily "If he can have such a big ego, so can I...I don't care! I am leaving!"
Seamus was there beside them within seconds "Sonia, what happened?"
"Seamus, you can sue me if you want...But I will not work with such an egoistic director!" She said pointing at Ron who stood a few distance away.
"Sonia, wait!" Seamus said trying to convince her.
"Sir... this is all because of me..." Hermione started crying into her hands.
"Shut up, Hermione... Please..." Seamus groaned before he turned to Sonia "I will talk to him..." He said running up to Ron.
"Ronald... why are you doing this? Please come and apologize to her...Come..." He said bringing Ron over to stand in front of Sonia who glared at him expectantly.
"Haven't you left yet?" Ron asked bluntly and Seamus gasped in disbelief as Sonia glared at Seamus and walked to her car.
"Sonia... Wait! Wait! Wait!" He said running after her "Wait for 5 minutes".
"I am sorry, Sunny...I can't stay back after this...Sort it out with your Director" She said getting into her car.
"I'll take care of it, Sonia...There won't be any more trouble..." Seamus pleaded from outside "Please wait... Listen to me..." He continued to say as the car was turned on and moved away.
"Oh, No... She's ditched me..." Dean said in shock "I'll have to fall at their feet to get back home...Ron, Seamus..."
Ron scoffed looking at Sonia's departing car and turned but froze as he caught Hermione crying "Hermione...You..." He started.
"I'm sorry, Ron. You said "no"...I was the one who..." She started to ramble.
"Stop crying..." Ron said. Seamus angrily walked over to where Ron and Hermione stood talking, he watched as the red head told her something and Hermione nodded walking into the van.
Ron walked over to a side by tree and Seamus followed him "What do you lose by saying you're sorry?" He shouted "Disgusting, Man! What do I tell the clients...?" He said and turned toward himself and Ron continued to ignore him "Ron... Talk to me! I am screaming like a lunatic,
and you're just keeping mum! It's such a big project...Look at this" he said gesturing around at the whole crew - who all stood in little groups talking about what just happened- and the equipment "Do you know how much I'll lose...? You've shown your true colors, haven't you...? And to think I wanted to
help you! I should slipper myself..." He cursed at himself before walking to stand nearby facing away from Ron, the van and everyone.
Ron stood there looking out at the snow falling before Dean shouted out in surprise at Seamus "Hey, Seamus!"
Seamus turned around"Wow..." He crooned in awe. Ron frowned and turned to see what the matter was about and froze as his whole world came crashing down.
There came Hermione, out of the van and walking towards him wearing a bride's gown and umbrella over her head by Dean to cover her from snow. She smiled as he said something in praise and looked straight to smile at Ron but slowed her walk as she noticed the shocking look on Ron's face.
The whole set and crew who were watching Hermione in awe returned to their work, setting up their equipments.
Ron gulped, his heart beating loudly at the feeling his heart remembered again after so long since his wife died. He couldn't concentrate on anything other than Hermione's face as his vision blurred at other things around.
Hermione shivered from the intense look she was getting from Ron's oceanic blue eyes, she can see through him what he is feeling right at the moment, the feeling she has been having on him for a few weeks now.
But she was worried that Ron will push her away or he will be leaving so that she walked closer to him biting her lip.
Ron on the other hand, could not just believe this is true. He was sure he wouldn't get the feelings for any woman but this woman, Hermione Granger had somehow won through him, she won him.
They both came close face to face, Hermione worried and Ron in shock but anyone who can in their direction can clearly witness the love that etched on each of their faces, which Seamus did but walked away smiling and shaking his head.
Ron and Hermione turned away to get into work but both turned once more, Ron to check if it's reality and Hermione to make sure Ron is alright with her until the moment he smiled and they walked off getting to their job.
