Who: Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger.
When: Monday evening sometime.
Where: Hermione's flat.
What: A surprise visit from Ron :D.
Rating: PG-13 -- simply because Ron has a potty mouth.
Status: Complete.

Hermione's day had been quiet, well planned out. She had systematically checked off everythign on her list. And for the second time in less than a week Hermione had managed to finish up what she had wanted done before she went home. She really was making head way on her projects at work and it brought her such happiness. Soon there would be more rights for all creatures. It was everything she had ever dreamed of! Having any free time was a rare opportunity. If truth be told she was rather enjoying this little development. It gave her all the time in the world to relax in her home and keep an eye on Crookshanks. She had yet to get to the bottom of that mystery! But she was working on it.

Nestled into a large chair, her copy of Hogwarts: A History was splayed out onto her lap. One hand absently flipped the pages while the other hand gently stroked Crookshanks head. It was nights like these that Hermione truly enjoyed. It gave her every chance to unwind. The stress of the day was gone and Hermione was able to concentrate on something that wasn't work related. She loved those moments. Reaching out she grabbed her cup of tea, slowly bringing it to her lips so that she could take a drink.

Nothing could be more perfect tonight. Well, maybe one thing.

"Is this one of your evenings alone? I didn't mean to bother you, I just thought it would be nice to visit." He silently chastised himself for sounding like a ponce. It would be nice to visit? Merlin. Sometimes, when things were this awkward with Hermione, Ron thought back to being sixteen and being with Lavender Brown. She certainly hadn't minded his awkwardness, and he really had to owe his ability to kiss at all to her. She had been mildly appalled the first time they'd kissed and had quickly corrected his technique. Then Hermione and the stupid canaries -- the corners of his mouth turned up slightly as he thought about it.

"Girls?" He choked. Ron frantically wondered if Hermione could read his mind, could tell that he'd been thinking about Lav for just a second. Or .. no, maybe not. Maybe she was hoping he'd tell her about some girl he'd met so she could get away with telling him about whatever guy she was seeing. Ron had a tendency to be incredibly paranoid, which was mostly due to his terrible insecurity. He took his arm off the couch and draped it over his leg instead.

"No girls. How about you, uhh, not girls though."

"Ron, I'm pleased that you came to visit me. You know, contrary to popular belief I actually like having company every so often. Actually, I like your company." ...Had she really just said that. A pink color quickly rose to her cheeks. How could she have just carelessly said that?! Perhaps he would miss that whole thing entirely.

Hermione had begun rearranging herself on the couch, but in reality she was moving closer. Secretly she hoped Ron wouldn't notice. "You're not seeing anyone?" To say she was pleased would be an understatement. But she wasn't going to let him know that.

"I'm surprised, really. But you shouldn't even have to ask me. You know the answer to that. I work too much to even meet anyone." Although, there was the small fact that she still owled Viktor, but she would keep that part to herself. At least for now.

"Yeah?" Ron perked up a bit at her admission, though even he didn't realize exactly what Hermione was saying. He did notice the blood flooding her face, however. It was nice, really. Made her look alive.

"No, I'm not seeing anyone." Ron did notice Hermione moving closer. While he was not great at picking up verbal hints, he was painfully aware of every physical movement his friend made. "You should take a break, sometimes. Or maybe you could meet someone at work?" WHY? Why was he trying to convince Hermione to find a boyfriend?!

His voice lowered in pitch. "Scratch that. All the guys at the Ministry are dolts anyway, you wouldn't find anyone you liked there. Maybe you should just be alone." Ugh. Now she was going to think that he was insulting her, trying to force her to be some old hag.

"You've already got part of the crazy cat lady bit down, I guess." He had not failed to notice Crookshanks lurking around the side of the couch.

Hermione sat, staring blankly at Ron. Had he really just said what she thought he had said? Alone? Cat lady? Wouldn't Ron just love that?

Shaking her head she made a face. "Alone? That's how you want me to spend my life? Alone!?" She had sat up straight then, placing her hands onto her hips. "As a crazy cat lady!?" Crazy!? Oh, she could show him crazy.

"Just because I'm not dating someone doesn't mean that I don't fancy someone!" She bit out, falling back into the couch and crossed her arms over her chest. Git.
