Never Let You Go-A Romione Story

Coming home-part 2

1st person Hermione's POV

I laughed as Ron pulled me down the corridor to the Room Of Requirements. "Ron! Slow down!" I breathed out through my giggles. "No can do babe!" He said, running faster. "Ron!" I groaned and stopped running. I guess Ron noticed, cause he turned and waited for me. "What's the matter Mione?" He asked with concern in his voice. "Nothing. Just tired." I replied. "Why are you so tired? You've said that 4 times since I came home." He said. "Umm... I'll tell you when we get to the Room Of Requirements." Ron nodded, and picked me up, bridal style, and carried me the rest of the way.

Once we were inside, we sat down on the couch. I snuggled up against Ron and almost fell asleep right then and there. "So, why are you so tired Mione? Harry also told me you've been tired everyday since about a week after I left." I sat up and looked at my boyfriend. "Umm... I haven't gotten a lot of sleep since you left. Not because I stayed up worrying about you, I just kept having nightmares about.. her, and I was scared to fall back asleep. It happened almost every night. And since we have our own room now, there was no one there to wake me up before the actual terror of the dream started." I explained, all while not meeting his eyes. "Mione, why didn't you ask anyone to stay with you?" I shrugged. "I didn't want to seem weak." "Babe, you aren't weak. You could never be. What you went through, was terrible. And everyone knows that. Why didn't you ask Ginny?" Ron asked, wrapping me in a hug. "I don't know. It's not the same." Ron hugged me tighter. "I wish I could have been there Mione. I'm sorry. I should have been with you." He said, sprinkling short, loving kisses on my neck and shoulder. "You couldn't have Ron. You didn't have a choice. I knew that. You knew that. But you're back now, and that's all that matters to me." I said, pulling away from the hug and kissing him. It was a gentle, soft kiss, but it was perfect either way. I liked the gentle side of Ron a lot me than the one that's always mad and yelling. But of course, I love him either way.
