Chapter Twenty Seven

We pulled away and silence becomes of us.
"So..." Ron trailed off. "What are we now?" I shrugged looking down at my hands. After a moments silence I felt Ron's finger hook under my chin and raise my head to look at him.
"I like you Hermione." He stated and my mouth falls open in shock.
"Lets face it it been obvious for quite a while now."
"I like you too." I smiled. I had finally gotten it off my chest, the thing that had been on my mind for years. Ron's face broke out into a smile when I told him this.
"Hermione, will you go out with me?" It was my turn to break into smile this time. I nodded and he kissed me again. I had just admitted my feelings to Ron Weasley.

"Harry." I said, catching his attention. He looked up at me and Ron in the doorway.
"Hey." He smiled. "I was about to come see you. How are you feeling now? I heard you were ill."
"Yeah good thanks. Look Harry, can we speak to you for a minute." I said as Ron and I walked into the room.
"Yeah sure." Me and Ron sat on his bed and faced him.
"Okay, your making me nervous now." He laughed. "What is it?" Butterflies went crazy in my stomach. I wasn't sure how Harry would react, would he like his two best friends being together? I didn't say anything so Ron jumped in. He slid his hand in mine that was resting on my lap and Harry watched, his eyebrows drawing together in confusion.
"Were going out." Ron rushed out for me.
"Oh cool, can I come with, I mean I only have like two more paragraphs of this essay that I need to..." Harry rambled on whilst me and Ron looked at each other.
"Um no Harry." I interrupted him, in the middle of him gathering his things up.
"We mean like a relationship." Harry's eyes widened and he froze then he looked down at our hands again, making the link.
"Oh." He states. I couldn't decipher whether it was a good oh or a bad oh. My stomach flipped over.
"Oh my god. I'm so happy for you two!" He suddenly exclaimed and stood up. He engulfed both of us in a hug, smiling from ear to ear.
"Finally I've been waiting for Romione forever!"
"Romione?" I questioned raising an eyebrow.

Harry, Ron, Ginny and me were sitting on the spare bed. There was a room that was in the gryfindoor area and no body was allowed to use it yet it was the biggest dorm at hogwarts. It had a massive kings size bed in the middle of the room but no other furniture and our voices echoed off the walls. The four of us decided to spend some time together so we thought that sneaking in and using this room would be the best idea. We sat in a sort of circle, chatting, laughing and having fun. Snacks littered the bed that still had enough room to practically fit another four of us on. We had gathered a load of blankets and pillows too so we're we're basically absorbed by fluffiness. We were having an 'argument' about which Bertie bot's every flavoured beans were the worst.
"No definitely the vomit flavour." I insisted.
"No! Grass flavour!" Harry said.
"Okay your all wrong." Ginny told us. I zoned out of the conversation as I looked round at my friends. All three of them were smiling and laughing and my hand lay loosely in Ron's, it was as though it had always been there and we had always done it. Ron looked at me and smiled and I smiled back as he gave a little squeeze on my hand. He was always doing that, well for the one day that we were official anyway. It was as though he didn't want me to forget that he was there for me. He turned back and joined the conversation again. After a while I yawned and looked at my watch.
"Guys it 3am, and I could drop into a sleep and sweet induced coma this second." I told them looking around at all the empty sweet wrappers.
"Yeah, so am I." Ginny perked up. "Can we go to sleep now." Harry shrugged.
"Sure." We laid down where we were and I sunk into the mass of blankets and pillows. Harry waved his wand and the lights darkened.
"Night guys." Ginny said and we all replied with a 'night'. I felt Ron reach over and then his soft lips on mine.
"Goodnight." He whispered in my ear and shivers ran through my spine.
"No PDA!" Harry told us before I could say anything. I giggled and Ron moved himself closer to me. I put my arm over his chest and snuggled into his shoulder. And this, right here, was the happiest I could ever be. It's a shame it couldn't stay like this.
