Who: Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley
When: The evening of 28 January
Where: The Leaky Cauldron
Rating: PG-13 just to be safe
Status: Incomplete/Closed
Summary: Hermione and Ron meet after work to talk about things.

The idea of meeting Ron at the Leaky Cauldron shouldn't have made her nervous, but it did. It was the first time they had spoken since she had gotten married, save the few minutes they spoken at the ball before complete mayhem broke out as a result of the Dark Mark appearing. She knew why she was nervous, though. She still loved him, had since sixth year when her feelings turned from a hard, school-girl crush to feelings that were much more deeper. For awhile, she had thought things might work out between them, but things got in the way and they were never given the chance to make it work.

Now, however, she was married, and though she didn't agree with the Ministry whatsoever, it still didn't change the fact that Ron did nothing but sit back and watch as her life was completely turned inside out because of one sheet of parchment. She did feel bitter because of it, but how couldn't she? But then again, she argued, she could have taken matters into her own hands herself.

Sighing as she opened the door to the Leaky Cauldron, she looked around, but didn't see that familiar head of red hair anywhere. She was early though, so she gave Tom a small wave before helping herself into one of the booths.

Ron moved to stand, and said, "I'll get something for us from Tom, some soup and some meat and bread. I'll meet you at the door?" and Ron moved away, to place an order of food to go. Tom's tavern food was simple, but hearty. Ron moved easily across the room, to lean in and speak with Tom. He leaned against the bar as he watched the man head into the back to fetch the food.

Ron turned to look back over at Hermione at the table, and smiled at her. There was something about her that warmed his heart when he looked at her. She was incredibly beautiful, by his estimation, and he felt a pang of jealously at Stephen, who would spend hours and hours with her daily. Did her husband realize what a jewel he had? Her fine delicate features? Her eyes that made one melt inside? The way she moved with confidence and purpose? Ron thought of her cupid bow lips, and the thought of Stephen kissing her flashed through his mind, which he quickly put down. He didn't want to think of that. Her lips were for him alone, he thought resolutely. She was supposed to be his, and he was stubborn in his idea to make this happen.

Tom came out, with a basket, full of the food. He added a round of bread and handed it over to Ron, who paid and would return the empty container in the morning. He moved to the door, ready to open it and lead Hermione out onto the Alley, and to his flat, down the street.
