The Gryffindor King - A Ron Weasley One-Shot

This one-shot was requested by @laraleone1. I hope you like it!!

Lara didn't love Quidditch. She loved the Gryffindor Keeper. Being that they were both in Gryffindor house meant that she got to see him in all of her classes and sometimes in the common room.

Lara was picking up her books at the end of Transfiguration when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to see a very familiar ginger. She could feel her face flushing.

"Hey," Ron said, smiling shyly.
Lara smiled back at him. "Uh, hi," she said, nervously.

"So, uh, we have Quidditch practice on Saturday, and I was wondering if you would maybe want to come watch, then we could go to Hogsmeade together or something?" Ron asked, nervously.

Lara's face grew warm. "I-I'd love to," she stuttered.

"Great. I'll, uh, see you then," he said, smiling at her before walking out of the class. She gathered her books, then walked out to the common room. Lara went up to her dorm.

"Hi, Lavender," she said. "I've got a date on Saturday!"

"With who?" Lavender asked, excitedly.

"Ron Weasley!" Lara said, dreamily. Lavender's eyes narrowed and she turned her back on Lara. That's weird... she thought. "Well, I'm gonna go to dinner, so I'll see you later? I guess."

When Saturday finally came, Lara got dressed in her usual school uniform, dye to the fact that it was the warmest thing she owned, and headed down to the Quidditch pitch. She sat on the cold bleachers and watched the team warm up. Even though she didn't really like Quidditch, she couldn't deny that the Gryffindor team was really good. Harry made an excellent team captain and Ron was great as Keeper.

After about two hours, the team went back to the locker room to get changed. Lara waited outside for Ron. It only took about ten minutes for him to come out, dressed in his school uniform.

"So how'd I do?" Ron asked as they walked down to Hogsmeade. A lot of other students were down there as well.

"You were really great," she said, truthfully. She couldn't help shivering a little bit.

"Are you cold?" he asked, with concern in his eyes.

"A little," Lara admitted. Ron slung his arm over her shoulder before quickening his pace.

"Let's hurry to Three Broomsticks then, okay?" he said. She nodded. They hurried into Hogsmeade and he opened the door to Three Broomsticks, letting them in. Ron and Lara walked up to the bar and he placed their order.

"Two Butterbeers please," he told Madame Rosemerta. The two of them got a table near the front window and waited for her to bring their drinks. They talked for a while, sipping their Butterbeers.

"Thank you for coming," Ron said, suddenly. "I didn't think you would want to."

"Why wouldn't I?" Lara asked. "I've had a really great time."

"Me too. I was just nervous because, well, I kinda like you... a lot."

She felt her insides heat up, having nothing to do with the Butterbeer. Her face grew warm as she smiled at him. "I-I like you, too, Ron," she said.

He leaned over and kissed her, slowly but wonderfully. "I'm glad we did this."

"Me too."
