Complicated Love: A Harry Potter Fanfic

Double Date or No?

~RON'S POV~

There is a knock at the door. I get up to see who it is, bloody hell! It's Hermione. What's she doing here? We've been broken up for a year at least. She shouldn't be here. Bloody hell, she's so gorgeous. How did I ever let her get away?

I answer the door and let her in "He-Hello Hermione." I stutter. "Hey Ron, is Harry here?" Oh, of course, she isn't here for me, this makes much more sense now. "Uh, yeah. He's in the living room." Hermione walks to the living room and asks Harry "Hey Harry, are we still on that double date tonight? Or did Ginny get too upset about last night and it's been cancelled?" Harry says "Oh, yeah, it's still on. What time tonight?" Hermione ponders on that a second. "Hmmm.. How about seven?" Harry says "Sounds good." And then they start talking about it in more detail and I stop listening, I shouldn't be here. Wait, no, Hermione shouldn't be here! I live here! Hermione and Harry seem to have all the details together so I say "Hermione, can I talk to you?" She says "Of course, Ronald." "Alone?" Hermione replies " Uh, yeah, sure. Harry do you mind?" Harry leaves the room.

"Why are you here Hermione? You know I still have feelings for you and if you don't stop coming around I'm never going to get over them. I-I don't know how else to say this but, I'm in love with you Hermione, can't you see that? I have been, since you first came into mine and Harry's train compartment and told me I had dirt on my nose. You left me, you left me for Draco Malfoy, the 'foul loathe some evil little cockroach' as you once put it. Why? Why Hermione?" Hermione looks as if I just punched her in the face. Good. "Ron, we just weren't working, we nearly always fought and I.. I have always been in love with Draco. Even when he was a 'foul loathe some evil little cockroach' I loved him, there was always something about him that excited me, made me desperate to be with him. Now, he's a better person and I can be with him. I have always wanted him, I'm sorry Ron. I love you too, just not like I love him. My love towards you is the same type of love I have towards Harry. Brotherly."

Brotherly.
That word echoes through my mind. BROTHERLY? What? "Brotherly? A 'brotherly' love? That's it? That's all you have to say for what we've shared?" "I'm so sorry Ron." She starts to leave. No, don't leave me again. No. I grab her arm and pull her towards me. I kiss her like I've never kissed anyone before. She kisses back. Yes! She pulls away.. "Ron, I can't. I-I have to go." "But Hermione, I-" "Ron, I love Draco, but I-I love you... too, so I have to go." I let her leave. At least I know she still loves me, I will get her back. I promise.

*WOAH! Hermione loves both Ron and Draco, who will she choose? Personally, I know who I would, but.. Who knows? Let me know what you think in the comments! Sorry for such a short chapter, but it sure was intense!*
