A/N: I know this probably sucks, but it's midnight and I'm tired, but I'm also unbelievably bored so I'm writing. Eh…

He saw her, skipping rocks, leaning against a tree. He didn't have to see her face to know she was still mad at him. He tightened the jacket around his chest as he took a few steps closer, He was trying to be quiet in hopes not to spook her… he failed. He stepped on a small patch of dry leaves that had fallen from the tree.

She gasped slightly and whirled around to face him. She wasn't crying, but he could tell, from the little amount of moonlight they had, that she had been. Her face was lightly streaked with nearly invisible tear stains. If he didn't know her face the way he did, he wouldn't have noticed the streaks at all.

He felt a stab of pain when she did an almost unnoticeable scowl at seeing him. Luckily her face softened before she looked away. He would say he was hurt bye her coldness but he isn't one to talk, after what he did to hurt her, he honestly couldn't imagine what she is feeling. But even still, he walked the rest of the way up to her.

"Ronald, please. I re-really don't want to talk to you right now…" She choked out. Eyes welling with tears again.

"'Mione, I know that I am a complete git. I know that. I am the biggest prat to ever live. And I'm not just saying that to agree with you Hermione, I really do think that. But how long are you going to avoid me like the plague? How long are you going to hate me?" Ron asked in one breath with a pleading tone.

"Ron. I don't hate you. You know that." She replied rolling her eyes in her signature 'Hermione' way.

"No, I don't Hermione. Because if something means the world to you, and that something suddenly wants nothing to do with you, then you start to think that something hates you. Because if they mean so incredibly much, then you can't see how they doesn't feel the same emptiness if they don't just hate your guts.

"Ron I-"

"Hermione it's okay."

"Huh?"

"I know you 'Mione, you are going to say sorry or some other sweet thing to make me feel better, but you shouldn't. I should apologize to you. I mean, I have 17 million times already but…"

"Ron I wasn't going to apologize to make you feel better. I was going to apologize for making you feel the way you did. It's just. You really hurt me when you left, I wanted to hurt you too…" She said, still clearly fighting tears.

"I'm really sorry Hermione, and I'll never leave you or Harry agai-"

"How do I know that Ronald!?" She snapped as she turned to face him, sadness laced all through her eyes.

"Because Hermione, do you think I would risk losing you again?" He asked turning to face her also. "You and Harry." He added, attempting to save himself what he only just realized he had said.

"I- I don't know Ron, you never know what could happen. What if you change your mind…?" She asked sighing letting only one tear escape before she inhaled slowly and controlled the others.

At this point Ron didn't even care, he wiped the tear from her cheek and returned his hand to the spot of grass next to the tree where it had been before. Neither of them cared and they both acted like it didn't happen.

"Hermione Jean Granger. I promise to you, that I will never leave again. I was the dumbest, most selfish thing I've ever done. And from now on I will always think of you first okay? Can you please believe me because I've never wanted someone to trust me so much before in my life. I don't think I can go one more day without in this world without you in it. Okay?"

Hermione let her held back tears fall and she nodded slightly. Ron smiled a slight grin at her and it made her smile too. Merlin he had missed that smile.

"C'mere." He said wrapping his arms around her and pulling her into a hug. She hugged him back tighter than he had expected.

"Go on inside, I'll take watch okay?" He said pulling away. She wiped a tear and nodded again. He pecked a kiss on her cheek before she got up and went into the tent.

~*~About 4 hours Later~*~

"Harry, hey Harry!" Ron whispered while shaking Harry slightly.

"Huh? What Ron?" Harry groaned rolling over.

"You're on watch."

"Ugh, fine." Harry said standing up and walking out, taking his cover with him.

Ron looked over to his bed where he was about to go to sleep, but something seemed to already be there. A bushy haired teenager, asleep, yet shivering. He walked over to her

"'Mione?" He whispered.

"Mmm? O-Oh Ron, I'm really sorry I'll move I ju-"

"No It's fine really, it's just that you're shivering."

"Oh… Well, I'm okay." She said wrapping more up on herself for warmth.

"No you're not, here." He said taking off his think leather jacket and putting it on top of her and her covers.

"No, Ron you need it." She said trying to shrug it off.

"I'm fine. Go to bed." He said kissing her forehead and sitting down on the couch cushions not far from his bed that had been set on the floor. He sat there for a few moments before scooting the cushions to lay directly next to his bed where Hermione lay.

He hadn't been there with his eyes closed for long before something grabbed his hand. He jumped slightly and his eyes shot open, he was about to reach for his wand with his other hand when he saw what it was. It was the dainty hand of Hermione. He ginned his lopsided grin and the tips of his ears turned slightly pink. He kissed her pinkie and drifted to sleep.

Ron woke slightly when he heard snickering from the flap of the tent. He opened his eyes in just enough squint to see Harry smiling at the two, trying to contain himself before walking back outside. The last thought Ron had before he drifted back to sleep was 'It's definitely Hermione's turn for watch by now, I can see the break of dawn through the crack left in the flap of the tent. Harry is letting us sleep. Thanks Harry.' And with that, the world went black again, leaving Ron to dream about things that I assume you know.
