'Bout Time!

Hermione opened her eyes, trying to remember how she had ended up in the infirmary. On her right sat Ron, head down on her bed asleep. Hermione contemplated waking him up. He so peaceful asleep, next to her. She also worried weather or not he was still angry with her. Before she could decide, Madame Pomfrey walked into the room.

“Ah. Good you’re awake.” She noticed Hermione glance down at Ron. “He’s been here the entire time. He wouldn’t even leave to go change clothes. He was scaring patents, so I had to give him a robe to put over his clothes. Your other friend, Potter, came in here to at least get him to eat something, he refused. Well I’ll just leave you to it then.”

Hermione looked down to see Ron waking . His eyes flashed open and he looked at her, the weight lifted from his chest. Without thinking the two leapt into each others arms into a tight embrace.

“Oh Ron! I’m so glad you’re alright! I’m so sorry for all this trouble I’ve caused. I don’t even know how it happened. I can understand if-”

Ron had cut her off with a forceful kiss. He held Hermione close, enjoying the long awaited kiss. After a moment he broke the kiss, making Hermione gasp for air. Smiling he said, “Has anyone told you, you talk too much.”

A few hours later Hermione left the Hospital alone. She almost had to hex Ron because he refused to go eat something. She decided to go to her room to freshen up, praying she didn’t see Draco in between. As she turned the corner Ron stood in the hallway with an overnight bag in his hand.

“Ron what are you doing? Did you eat anything? So help me, if you’re starving yourself again-!”

“No. I’ve eaten. I have a surprise for you.”

“Really? For me?” He nodded. “Well, what is it? Can I freshen up first?” Ron held the bag up.
“Don’t worry, I have all you things here. And so you know, I had Ginny get it, I wasn’t snooping.” Hermione laughed at his shyness. Then she thought, what if he had gone through her things? Her body tingled at the sight of Ron holding up her silk garments. “So where is this surprise?” Hermione asked, seductively. “It’s a secret.” Ron put the bag down and slowly pulled off his tie. He positioned himself behind Hermione and placed his makeshift blindfold over her eyes. Hermione could feel the warmth on the tie from its owner. She could feel his pulse racing as his fingers lingered on her face. Ron then grabbed her hands pulling her close to him. Without warning, Ron picked her up, cradling her in his arms. Hermione let out a squeal of shock, causing Ron to chuckle. Ron walked for a few minutes, not talking to Hermione once. Without re Without realizing, she was shaking with anticipation. Her shaking caused Ron to notice how excited she was. If her hand moved a little lower, she could feel what her shaking was doing to his lower body. Finally Hermione could hear a door opening and into the room. He gently placed her on her feet. When Ron removed the tie, Hermione gasped at the room they were in. She noticed at once it was the Room of Requirements. In the middle of the room sat a small table for two. The table had a black cloth over it with two red candles burning. There were also two plates covered to keep warm. Where Hermione stood, she could smell the aroma of the food. On the table were flower pedals scattered about. “Tulip.” Ron said suddenly. Hermione blinked out of her daze. “What?” “Tulip. That is your favorite flower, isn’t it? I wanted it to be perfect.” Hermione grinned and turned back to examine the rest of the room. Beside of the table was a trolley filled with fruit. She noticed between the fruits, there was a large bowl of chocolate. “Hermione, I swear I don’t know why that is there. I wasn’t thinking anything anywhere near that.” Hermione followed his gaze to the last thing in the room. A king size bed with black sheets, looking to be Egyptian cotton. The bed was covered with more tulip pedals. Hermione blushed and giggled, turning to Ron. “It’s alright Ron. I think it might have been me. I think I was trying to guess the surprise a little too hard.” Ron looked at the girl beside him. She was blushing with embarrassment. She has no idea how beautiful she really is. Ron felt his blood boil as he looked at her. Why was it he had waited so long to tell her how he felt?

“Hermione. You are so beautiful. I’m sorry it’s taken me this long to realize what a wonderful witch you are.” Ron took the final step to close the gap between them. They both stood there looking into each others eyes. Lost for words, Ron leaned in slowly, Hermione leapt up to his lips before he had time to react.

Once the two touched, no one could tell where Hermione began, and Ron ended. Their bodies’ one mass of hormones. Hermione wrapped her arms around Ron’s neck, trying to pull herself up to his level. As soon as the kiss had started, Ron broke it, causing Hermione to moan. Ron stepped away, his breath shallow.

“Hermione, I love you so much. But I don’t want to take advantage of you. I don’t want us to go too fast.”

Hermione quietly turned and walked away from Ron. She walked around the table, stopping only to dip a strawberry in chocolate. She gently brought the ripe fruit up to her lips, licking some of the chocolate off before biting the decadent berry. She moaned as the juices touched perfectly on her taste buds. Once finished with the strawberry, she walked over to the bed.

She placed a hand delicately on the bed, running her hand over the sheets. Slowly she turned to Ron. With a large grin on her face she undid the front of her robes to reveal only a bra and matching knickers. Not takin. Not taking her eyes off of Ron and his growing erection, she leaned back on the bed, sighing from the comfort of the bed. “Ronald Weasley, hear I am, practically nude and desperately in love with you. Take advantage of me Ron. Because I certainly plan on taking advantage of you.”

Before she had even finished speaking, Ron was on the bed, locking her lips with his. God how he loved this witch. Tonight he was going to prove how much.
