Who: Hermione and Ron
When: Christmas Eve
Where: The Burrow
What: Before dinner

Hermione arrived to The Burrow for Weasley Christmas Eve. Ron asked her to meet him there a little early, there was something he needed to do and wanted her to tag along. Hermione agreed, of course, since even though she figured their relationship was over, she still wanted to be Ron's friend.

She arrived an hour early, wearing her Christmas dress and nicest cloak. She knocked on the front door of The Burrow, wondering if Mrs. Weasley was going to try and force-feed her... again.

Ron reached behind him without looking back into the house and slammed the door shut. Before his mother could come yell at him for slamming doors, Ron took Hermione's gloved hand and started walking her away from the Burrow.

Ottery St Catchpole was, in Ron's opinion, the prettiest place in the world. There weren't many houses and people from the nearby village didn't come up this way very often. Every house seemed to have a large piece of land to go with it and you never had to worry about neighbours seeing what you were up to. Perfect. And the perfect place to have a family.

Walking together in the snow, Ron charmed their feet to stay warm. "Thanks for coming. I, uh, hope I wasn't ruining plans you had with your parents or anything."

	Hermione glanced at him, then at the house, then to him again, her jaw dropping open to gape. "I... I need to sit down." Hermione said, her grip on his hand tightening a little. She'd thought they were over, and he must've thought they were just beginning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hermione let him lead her into the house and sat down. She was still in awe of all of this. She looked up at him, her eyes brimming now with tears as everything sank in. "Oh, Ron." She said, reaching for his hand once more. "Ron, this is the most amazing... most romantic thing anyone's ever done for me." She said, breaking into a warm smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ron stepped forward with the tug. All he could think of was losing Hermione. It broke his heart in ways he never knew possible. Ron was about to pull away and try to regain his pride when she asked him a question. "What?! You... You... But you didn't say yes." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hearing that for the first time was enough to make Ron forget about the feast his mother was cooking less than a mile away. He kissed Hermione again, leaning her back on the sofa and making sure he enjoyed this moment. It was never going to happen again, right? "Don't tell your Dad," Ron teased against her lips. "He's pretty scary when he wants to be." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
