*********************************************************

Ron stopped dead. His stomach suddenly felt like it had shattered like glass.

"What?"

"I heard you. How you...feel about me."

The color drained from Ron's face. "I gotta go."

Quickly, Ron stood up again, intent on racing out the door and having an emotional breakdown, but he was stopped by Harry, who grabbed his hand.

"Ron, please stop..." Harry pleaded. He noticed Ron's hand was shaking terribly.

"Please let me go..." he choked.

"Ron, please listen to me."

Harry could see the pain in his friend's eyes as he turned around. Tears that had been held in check for so many months were now flowing freely down his face.

"I never meant for it to turn out this way..." Ron sobbed. He turned away again, not able to bear for Harry to see him like this. There was a long pause followed by a very uncomfortable silence, only once and a while interrupted by the soft hiccups of Ron's lamenting.

Ron closed his eyes. It was like he could almost feel a rift tearing between them. His life was ruined...Harry would hate him...he would leave Ron and never speak to him again.

Unable to stand the tension any longer, Ron broke the silence. "You hate me now, don't you..." he muttered, dejectedly.

At this, Harry sighed, shooting Ron a concered expression. "No, Ron...I don't hate you." he pulled on Ron's hand that he still had a hold of, encouraging the other boy to sit back down in the tub. Harry still had his eyes locked on Ron's, the same concerned expression shining in them.

By now, Ron was feeling very uncomfortable, and this was only exceeding in upsetting him further. He closed his eyes, wishing he woul dissappear, wishing he was anywhere but here....heck, even potions class would be paradise right now, compared to this....

...Why is he doing this me? Why is he making it harder for me...Ron thought painfully to himself. His ashamed gaze drifted about the room, desperately seeking anything other than to meet Harry's gaze.

This, Harry was obviously aware of. "Ron, look at me."

To Ron's surprise, Harry placed a hand under his chin, tilting his head upward. "Ron, can you honestly say that while looking me in the eyes?" Harry said, his bright green eyes burning into Ron's.

What in the world...??? What was Harry getting at, Ron wondered to himself, raising an eyebrow. "Harry, why are you doing this to me..."

"Answer my question."

Ron sighed in defeat, still staring into those beautiful green orbs behind the glasses. "I love you, Harry. I will always love you...there isn't anyone else in the world that I'atheather be with." He spoke honestly, but the pain of doing so was evident on his face. "And if you never want to speak with me again, I understa--"

Ron was cut off in mid sentance, his expression changing from subdued to shocked as he felt Harry's soft lips against his own.

Thoughts began exploding through his head. He stood perfectly still, not knowing if he should react or not. That decision was made for him as he felt Harry's tongue slowly enter mouth, and his good judgment was totally lost.

He instictively leaned into the touch, allowing his own tongue to caress Harry's playfully, as his roaming hands slid up the back of the other boy's shirt. Ron desperately fought with the hungry noise surfacing in his throat, unable to keep it held in for much longer. Eventually, his restraint broke, and he moaned Harry's name inbetween the passionate kisses, circling his arms around Harry's waist, and pulling him closer.

Harry responded in much the same way, making Ron feel a little better. Harry's control seemed to be slipping a little also, which was perfectly fine with Ron. He ran his fingers through Ron's red hair, as he kissed him de, bo, both boys desperately yearning to fullfill their needs for each other, when Ron suddenly pulled away.

"H...Harry?? What...why...??" He panted.

Harry's face immediately blushed to match Ron's. "I uh..." he faltered, his gaze quickly focusing on the ground. Lost for words, his desperate expression flickered back up to Ron for a couple seconds. "I know...that's not normally like me, huh..."

Ron nodded slightly, calming down a bit. "But Harry...what just...happened?" Not that he didn't enjoy it of course, but he WAS curious.

Harry had a very guilty expression on his face that made him look all the more adorable. "Oh Ron, I...I wanted to tell you...honestly, I did." Harry said softly, "But I didn't know how...I didn't think you'de understand when I...I..."

He swallowed thickly. It was now or never.

"I'm in love with you." He blurted.
