Disclaimer: I don't own any characters except Colin and Karina!

I am about to walk out the door with a guy I don't really love. The man I'm in love with is across the other side of the room downing some fire whiskey.

He's got fiery red hair and a temper as short as a match stick. He doesn't love me though, he's got that stupid blonde bimbo over there in the corner.

Ron Weasley. The love of my life.

"Love? Are you coming?" asked my boyfriend, Colin.

"Uh, yeah, I just need to get my coat." I say, walking away and leaving him standing there twiddling his thumbs, he wasn't used to being in a place full of my family and friends.

I walked my way over to Harry and told him I was leaving now, it was pretty much a Christmas thing. I hadn't actually seen Harry, Ron, Ginny, Luna, Neville, Mrs Weasley, Mr Weasley and Fred and all of that lot for at least a couple of months.

I now worked as a healer and loved every minute of it, well, I used to love every minute of it, until I met Ron down in the wards after not seeing him for a total of 2 years.

"You're leaving? This party's only just begun!" Harry cried, holding Ginny's hand.

"Yeah, well, Colin's getting a bit uncomfortable" as I said this I noticed Harry shoot him a slightly dirty look before looking back at me with a frown on his face.

"So? Ron's here, you haven't spoken to Ron since last Christmas" Harry said "I know he want's to talk to you."

"Well he should come over and talk to me then! He shouldn't be so stubborn!"

"Hermione, everyone knows that Ron's stubborn like this, just go and say hello, I know you want too."

"Fine, not that he'll care, he'll be too busy running around after Karina" I say with a slight hint of annoyance.

Harry raised his eyebrows "there's nothing wrong with Karina"

"Of course you don't think so, she's a model for Witches Which Weekly, every guy loves her."

"Not true, I like her for her personality, not her appearance."

"She doesn't even have a personality, so don't give me that, anyway, I'm gonna say hi to Ron, wish me luck" I put down my glass of water and gave myself a pep talk before going over to say hello to him.

I'm not usually this nervous, it's just that when the war ended we lost contact, when we say lost contact I mean Karina stole my new address and phone number and ripped it to shreds.

She says it was by accident but it left me thinking that everyone had pretty much forgotten about me. I had only given my address to Ron, thinking that he would spread the word around but no, Karina had gotten there first and put it through her shredder.

I only saw Ron in that ward the 2 years later, he had broken his collar bone playing Quidditch (he was pretty much word famous as a Qudditch player now) and I had been assigned to fix him up.

"Ronald." I say formally, suddenly aware of my bushy hair and my rosy cheeks.

"Oh!" he says, only just noticing I had been standing there "Hi…"

"How are you doing these days? Still with Karina?" I ask with resentment.

"Oh, um, yeah, she didn't do that to your address and everything, just incase you still think it was her."

"Oh really? Who was it who accidentally ripped up a piece of paper with all my new information on it? Any ideas?"

"Look, maybe it was my dog, you know, the one I got just before you moved, he had two heads and everything, he could easily have ripped it up. I just know that Karina swore she never did it." Ron said, he drank the last of his fire whiskey and looked at me straight in the eyes.

There it was, that connection that we still hadn't lost. Or maybe that was just me being totally and completely head over heels for him.

"So your dog ripped it up and then placed it at the bottom of Karina's paper shredder?"

"I guess so." Ron said, shrugging his manly shoulders. All that Quiditch did him good. Really good. I don't look too bad myself, I had grown into myself and I had filled out quite nicely but obviously not as nicely as busty blonde Karina. The supermodel for guys magazines, as if I could ever measure up to her.

"It's not like you shredded up your contacts to us, you could have popped over to see me!" Ron said defensively, I could tell he was angry.

"Ron, I waited for months for someone to visit me, when I first moved I thought I would come over to you instead but then I just thought about it, why wouldn't anyone come and see me and my new house? How could I go over after thinking that everyone was glad to be shot of me? How, Ron?" I say, brushing my hair sadly out of my eyes. He reached out and did it for me instead. I blushed and coughed uncomfortably.

"How could you think we wanted rid of you? That's the last thing any of us wanted." Ron reached out and grabbed my hand, his ears went red in doing so but I still felt my heart beat get faster just by his touch. Colin never managed to do this to me. Never.

"Snuggles! What are you doing with her?" whimpered Karina as she scampered over, her pouty looking lips looked glossed up and beautiful. Yeah, as if anyone could measure up to her.

I rolled my eyes "She has a name, Karina…" I gazed at her "…so use it."

"Whatever, snuggles shall we leave? I bought some sexy new lingerie for you, I'll put it on right away if we leave now."

Ron looked embarrassed and ordered another fire whiskey. I swear any happiness that may have been in me just left as soon as she mentioned her sexy new lingerie. I stood in a sulk and just bathed in all my hate for that stuck up model.

"I want to stay a bit longer, sorry Kar."

"Well, that's fine, but I have such a treat for you later on." she blew him a kiss and scurried away again back to all her own friends. I still stood there saying nothing when I got jigged out of my trance by Colin.

"Um, I've been waiting for a long time, can we leave now?" he asked impatiently.

"Sorry, yeah, bye Ron."

"Who's' this?" he interrupted, looking kind of mad.

"My boyfriend, Colin" I introduced them "Colin, this is Ron, one of my old best friends from school." and the love of my life, I added in my head. Ron looked him up and down and then said hello in a rude voice.

"I never knew you got together with someone" Ron said, looking disheartened.

"Yeah, we've been together for 5 months now" I say, looking up at Colin and smiling, he slid his arm around my waist and gave me a squeeze.

"5 months huh? Well, maybe we can meet up again soon" he shot Colin another look "without your boyfriend, I think we need to catch up."

"Yeah, okay, come on Colin" I say, giving Ron a kiss on the cheek. I left the room with my lips burning, I didn't just want to kiss his cheek. I wanted, no, I needed his lips. His cheek just wasn't enough for me.
