Find Our Way- Ron Weasley

Slow

"y/n wake up!" Hermione shook me awake.

"What? Can't you see I'm sleeping?"

"Where were you last night? I was looking all over for you so I could tell you happy new years. You made me worried sick!"

"Well I'm here now, that's all that counts." i shrugged

"You didn't answer my question."

"It doesn't matter. I was out."

"But it does matter! I was looking for you and ron- wait you guys both went missing at the same time. Were you guys together?" a smile creeped upon her face.

"Okay fine hermione i was with ron."

"I want to know everything."

"It's really nothing, we just kissed." I shrugged.

"That's a big deal! Why aren't you happy?" she show the frown on my face.

"I feel bad like really bad. Lavender doesn't deserve this. She tried her hardest to make him like her and i just come in and snatch him up like its nothing. I know I can't control how he feels but I feel bad. You know what i mean?"

"No" she looked at me like I was crazy. "Listen, you rejected a lot of guys just because you like him and now you're telling me you don't know if you should date him? Think about what you just said."
"I did think about it and i still feel like same way about it. I didn't say I wasn't going to not date him. I just feel bad, that's it."

"Whatever, let's just go to breakfast, I'm hungry."

"Hey guys." Me and Hermione took our seats across from Harry and ron.

"Hey y/n." Ron greeted me. I smiled while I put eggs on my plate.

"Me and Hermione were looking all over for you last night but we couldn't find you." Harry said.

"Oh I went to sleep early." Harry looked at me confused. "What? I was tired."

"But ron said-"

"Ronald wouldn't know where I was last night. I wasn't with him." I cut Harry off sending him a glare.

"Hey y/n." Cedric wrapped his arm around me and kissed me on the cheek.

"Hey ced. What's up?"

"Where were you last night? I didn't see you."

"Oh I went to sleep early." I sent him a fake smile.

"You don't have to lie, I know you were with him." he whispered in my ear before i could say anything, he got up from the table and left.

I could feels ron eyes on me as i ate my food. He was definitely mad at the fact that I lied to Harry and cedric. I have no idea why I lied, I could've told them the truth but for some reason I didn't.

--

"Me and Harry are going to the library, we will see you later." Hermione told me and Ron.

"I will come with you." I got up from my seat.

"Sit." Ron said, looking me directly in my eyes. Harry and Hermione walked off leaving me with ron. I sat back down in my seat trying not to look at him.

"Listen, I have to go and um..... Study! I have to study! I am taking a test in my first class today and i um need to....pass."

"We don't have classes today."

"Ohh yea.... Sorry." I looked down at my lap.

"So last night meant nothing to you?"

"Wha? Why- why would you think that?"

"Because it seems like it. You lied to harry and cedric. Why didn't you tell him you were with me? The first thing I did once I got back to my dorm was tell Fred and George about us kissing. I was happy y/n but it seemed like you weren't." I could tell by the sound of his voice he was hurt.

"I am happy, I really really like you. I'm just..... I'm scared." I finally attempted it. I was terrified to be in a relationship.

"Scared of what? Me? Why are you scared?" he asked softly.

"I don't want to end up crying like Lavender did. When i saw her my heart dropped. Then I get this feeling that you're going to get bored of me or leave me without an explanation. I don't want that because if I end up loving you and you break my heart I will never be able to move on and I know it. But i want to be with you i really do, everytime i see you i get this feeling in my stomach, like butterflies, i know you're the one i want but im scared of the future"

He stayed silent for a moment looking at me. He must think i'm out of mind, maybe he doesn't w-

"We will take it slow."

"Slow?"
"Yea slow. We can go one date to see if you want to be with me. And if you don't it's totally okay. So will you go on a date with me?"

"Yes." I smiled.

---

"Say it again!" Ron said.

"No." I groaned.

"Please y/n." he begged.

"Fine.'' I sighed. "I really like you Ronald more than just a friend. I dont get why you want me to keep saying it. We have already established that we like each other."

"Because I just love hearing you say it." he gushed.

"I'm not saying it again." I playfully rolled my eyes and went back to reading my book on Rons bed. I could feel him staring at me while i was reading.

"y/n?"

"Yes ron?"

"I would never hurt you. I didnt even mean to hurt lavender, I tried to tell her I liked you but she just didnt get it at first. If I knew dating her would do so much damage I wouldn't have done it."

"So youre saying that you're not going to break my heart because you know how much damage it's going to do." I raised an eyebrow at him.

"What? No! I like you, you know that. I never liked lavender, yea she was fun to be around but i like you i always liked you."

"So why didn't you just tell me?" I asked.

"Because I was scared of getting rejected. What if you would have said no, it would have ruined our friendship."

"I wouldn't have said no." I defended myself. "But before we do this, we have to promise if things go right, we have to stay friends, I don't want to ruin everything for Harry and hermione."

"Promise"

"So we're actually doing this?" I smiled.

"Yea finally"
