Summary: Harry's been dreaming of Ron. And Hermione.
Note: Wow, no prompt! Just a snippet that came to me yesterday, clearly influenced by the film of DH/1.
After Ron has gone, Harry wakes up each night reaching for him. It's ridiculous, really; whatever Harry feels, Ron has never indicated any interest in more than friendship. Harry tries to tell himself that dreaming of Ron is just his brain being odd, but deep down he knows better.
He dreams of Hermione as well, and maybe that's not so strange since it's just the two of them now.
Day by day he watches Hermione growing sadder at Ron's continued absence. He knows too that it's Hermione that Ron wants. All of this is so tangled in Harry's head that there doesn't seem to be any way to straighten it out, until one evening in desperation he starts to talk to Hermione.
When Harry makes clear his feelings for her and that he loves Ron, too, but that he knows Ron loves Hermione as well as vice versa, Hermione goes very quiet. She takes Harry's hand and holds it, her thumb stroking absently over his knuckles, until he falls silent.
Then she lifts Harry's hand to her mouth and kisses his palm, and promises him that if—no, when—Ron returns, the three of them will work things out together.
