WHO: Ron Weasley, Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley
WHEN: Thursday evening, late (midnightish and before bed)
WHERE: Gryffindor boy's dorm
SUMMARY: Ron tells Harry and Ginny the good news
RATING: PG?
STATUS: Complete



After him and Hermione had parted ways for the night, Ron made a mad dash up the stairs to the dorms hoping to Merlin that Harry was there, and for the first time, that Ginny was with him. He was bursting with the news. He couldn't stop grinning. He was in love with Hermione and she was in love back! They'd snogged! They'd told each other they loved each other! They were together!

"HARRY!" He screamed as he reached the dorm door, flinging it open and seeing his best mate's curtains drawn around his bed. "Harry, are you there? Is Ginny there too? Come on! I won't even be mad if she is!" He was practically bouncing. He hadn't been this excited since he'd found out that he was going to the Quidditch World Cup the summer before fourth year.

Ginny had been curling a bit of Harry's hair around her finger, giggling before kissing him again, the parchments full of notes he had been making for the new DA crunching under their legs. Reforming the DA was giving him an energy and brightness that she hadn't really seen since the war ended--it was quite the turn on. But just as she was about to roll him onto his back, Ron's voice hit Ginny like a ton of bricks, and she jerked away from Harry, sitting up straight. What had happened...

She glanced at Harry, clad only in pyjama pants, and down at herself in Harry's boxer shorts and a tank that she yanked back down into place, topped off with a serious case of bed head, and decided to take her brother at his word. What if Fred and George had blown up their shoppe with one of their ridiculous products? Charlie, eaten by a dragon, Bill eaten by Fleur...

Without waiting for Harry to comment, she grabbed her wand from the pile of parchments and quickly dissolved the half-dozen privacy charms on Harry's bed and yanked the curtain open. "What's going on?" she asked breathlessly, scrambling out of the bed.

Harry threw up his hands in exasperation. Yes, that's right, don't ask if I'd like to tug a shirt on, just let Ron guess what we were up to and then watch him hex me into oblivion, he thought in a panic, scrambling out behind Ginny. He was ready to blurt out an apology, but the expression on Ron's face - an amalgamation of joy and excitement and unadulterated delight - iced him to the floor; even without his glasses, Harry could see it all, so clear. "What's going on mate?" he asked, reaching back to the bed and grabbing his glasses, peering at Ron in confusion and curiosity.

Ron was practically bouncing on the spot, jumping up at down, grinning like an idiot and looking like an absolute maniac at the same time. He was out of breath now, but he just couldn't stop bouncing. Merlin, he was just so happy.

"Hermione... me... downstairs..." He started, breathing so heavy he couldn't get all the words out. He paused, stopped bouncing for just a moment to look at them both and smile so wide his face hurt. "Snogged." He added in simply, hoping they caught the meaning. And really, he wasn't even noticing Harry wasn't fully dressed and Ginny was laying in bed with him. It didn't particularly matter at the moment.

At first, Ginny was rooted in place, relief washing over her like a wave at the knowledge that everyone was safe and okay. Then, it hit her: Ron and Mione had snogged which meant that someone had made a move which meant--

Ginny let out a piercing squeal and grabbed her brother's hands, jumping up and down with him. "Oh my stars and jumpers, Ron, you finally did! Oh, hurrah, oi this is brills!"

"Wait you - you what?" Harry stammered, running his hands through his hair. He watched Ginny and Ron jump and squeal and become a blur of excitement and tried to figure out which end was up anymore. It happened, it really happened? "You and Hermione - you snogged?" he repeated, feeling stupid and slow but wanting to be exactly sure that he wasn't hallucinating.

Ron nodded insanely, his head moving up at and rapidly as he stopped bouncing with his sister to catch his breath. Happiness was exhausting. "Twice!" He exclaimed in reference to the snogging. He was still in disblief that it had happened.

Needing a bit of a rest, he walked over and sat down on the edge of Harry's bed. "Told her I loved her." He said with a grin, wondering how they'd react to that part of the story.

Harry got onto the bed with Ron, Ginny trailing behind. He yanked the curtains shut and then yet again charmed for silence. The whole dormitory didn't need to be subject to Ginny's squealing of which Harry was dead certain there would be more.

"And what did she say to that?" Harry asked, sitting down at the head of his bed and making an urging wave with his hand. I'm assuming she reacted well, based on how bloody brilliant you seem?

Ron blushed faintly at the memory, having it fresh in his mind from not too long ago and he ducked his head slightly, speaking softly, "Said it back." He told them both, smiling slightly to himself and wondering if he'd ever be able to stop.

He'd never stop thinking he wasn't good enough for Hermione but at least now he knew she didn't care about that. God, when she kissed him, he nearly fell over in shock. He'd never forget it.

Ginny leapt up and began bouncing on Harry's bed, all of the parchments going flying with each jump. "Ohmistaaars!" she squealed, clapping her hands as she spun in a circle. Her hair whipped around her face and she nearly lost her balance, but she managed to catch herself and ask eagerly, "So how did this all happen!"

Ron shrugged, smiling still nonetheless. He looked over at Ginny and was thrilled that she seemed so thrilled for them. "We were studying... well, she was studying, I was trying to stop staring at her." He started, shaking his head with a smile. He had been horribly distracted. He'd barely read five sentences all night.

"I just couldn't concentrate. I kept staring and thinking about her and it was really not working. She got frustrated with me for not working, as usual, and told me it wasn't that difficult to concentrate and I yelled something at her about it being very difficult to concentrate when she was sitting there looking so beautiful. Soon after she kissed me and then there it went." He shrugged again, giving them a shorter version so the details wouldn't be hashed out.

Harry laughed: he was certain there would be more romantic ways for a couple to come together, but nothing would be more organic, more Ron and Hermione than that. The loss of temper, the clash - and Hermione taking charge. "I hate to say it, but that's so bloody typical and perfect. You two, getting together from fighting!"

"It wasn't a fight!" He protested immediately, looking at both of them. "It wasn't. She was frustrated and I was frustrated because I couldn't focus and I just blurted it out without thinking. No arguing. Just silence and shock, I think, after that." He shrugged again, wanting them to understand that this one time they really hadn't been fighting.

"She's a bloody good snogger too." He added in after, a smile tugging at his lips as he did so.

"The point was that it - wasn't hearts and flowers," Harry laughed. He blanched though and shook his head. "Oi mate, I didn't need to know that. Mione's like my sister!"

Ginny finished bouncing, and breathlessly collapsed onto the bed, settling into Harry's lap and leaning back against his chest as if he was a chair for her to sit in. She giggled at Ron's expression, a dazed look like he had just been slammed in the face with a bludger and was seeing stars.

At the comment that Hermione was like Harry's sister and therefore, they shouldn't be privy to snogging, Ginny rolled her eyes. Other than Percy--who was asexual, thank you--she didn't much care what she overheard. Besides: "I'm not surprised she's good," she added with a shrug.

It felt sort of like Ron had been hit in the head with a bludger. He was still taking it all in and comprehending it because there was a lot to tae in. He'd gone from thinking it would never happen to having it happen all in one night and that was a rather large swap.

Ron rolled his eyes at his best friend, smiling. "Oh, please. Like I don't have to hear about you two," he said pointing to the both of them, "all the time. And Ginny is my sister!"

Harry looked down at his hands, linked cosily over Ginny's stomach and immediately yanked them away, stuffing them behind his back. "It's not my fault that's she's always being a prat and goading you, I respect the line!" he protested, shaking his head so furiously that his glasses slipped down his nose. "And like a sister, is a sister, it's pishtosh."

Ginny let out an aggravated sigh. These two and their stupid ideas of what was and was not acceptable information. Now Harry would be the obnoxious one, since Ron was obviously itching to share every detail: it would never end. Never. Ever. Boys. Stupidity...

"You're both tossers, gigantic hypocrites, how bout that? Just stow it and enjoy the moment. And you, Ronald, are sitting on his shirt," she added with a wicked grin.

"Oi!" He said, jumping up and looking at the bed where he sat. Sure enough, there was Harry's shirt. "Do me a favour and put this on, mate?" He asked with a smile, tossing it to Harry. Sitting back down, he leaned on the post at the end of the bed, still smiling mind you, and sighed happily.

"It's a damn good thing the common room was nearly empty." He stated observantly. "Hermione may not have kissed me had it been full."

Ginny tried to intercept the shirt, but Harry was the best seeker in the school for a reason; he grabbed it easily and began to pull it on as Ginny gave Ron an acidic look. "He's just going to take it off as soon as y--ow!" she yelped, as Harry gave her a firm pinch on the arm. "Bugger off!" she protested as Harry clamped the hand over her mouth.

"So!" Harry blustered quickly, keeping his hand covering Ginny's mouth. Ron was in such a good mood, he hadn't really put all of the pieces together about finding Ginny and he together like this. And your sassing is not helping! I swear you delight on making Ron go bonkers. "You were alone in there, yeah? That must have helped ease things along. Erm - so do you have a date planned or anything, even just a study date?" he rushed, nodding at Ron to urge an enthusiastic reply.

Ron raised an eyebrow at the exchange between the two of them and wondered if they were like this all the time. Shaking it off and thinking he may not want to know what they got up to all the time, he shrugged at Harry's question.

"Er, not really, actually. We sort of just sat together and talked and stuff after. Didn't really think to plan anything."

Harry tried to ignore Ginny licking his palm, forcing himself not to burst into laughter from her tickling. Thoughtfully, he looked up at the ceiling and then back at Ron as he dropped his hand from Ginny's mouth and linked his arms around her waist again. "Maybe surprising her with something, to let her know that tonight wasn't just a thing but how much it meant?" he suggested. He grinned at his best mate. "I mean did she get to see you this banjaxed for her? Did she get to know how long you've felt this way and all of that?"

"'Course she did!" He replied. "I was grinning like a loon the entire time. I barely let go of her after everything. Plus, I think when you tell someone you love them it tends to mean that you're mad about them and for quite some time, yeah? She knows all of this." He nodded, sure of it. But then he thought on things and decided some kind of gesture wasn't a bad idea.

"But the surprise thing isn't a bad idea, actually. I'll have to think of something." He said, tapping his chin and beginning to think already.

"That way? It's not just a memory," Ginny pointed out. "She can have something tangible to link with the memory, whether it's a letter or a box of sweets...flowers...something less cliched?" she added with a self-deprecating laugh. She absently reached up to toy with the necklace Harry had given her, trying to think of a good suggestion. With another laugh, she said, "Maybe wrap whatever it is in your unfinished charms assignment."

"And how might one wrap a protection charm?" Ron asked Ginny, giving her a grin and teasing her. He would have to think of something. She already had the locket he'd given her for her birthday so jewelry was out. Maybe a book of some kind? No, she got books all the time.

"Oi!" He said, looking up at both of them as an idea struck him. "I've an idea but I'm not sure how to pull it off." He said, thinking for a moment. "You know the locket I got her for her birthday? If I can somehow sneak it away from her I could get it engraved with the date and a message. Not sure how though, she wears it a lot." He smiled and blushed faintly at that.

"I can do it," Ginny said matter-of-factly. "I'll tell her that I want to get something like that for Tonks, and if I could borrow it for a day. Either that or straight up knick it and blame it being missing on dear Romilda," she said with a sweet smile. "But I'd rather go with option one, thank you very much. Want me to do it tomorrow?"

"Yeah. Yeah, that'd be brill, Gin, thanks." He told her, giving her a thankful and happy smile. This was a good idea. Hermione would be touched, or, at least he hoped she would.

"I'll sneak down to Hogsmeade to get it engraved. They have a jewelry shop there, right?" He asked, thinking he remembered passing one. He had bought the locket in Diagon Alley so he wasn't sure. "Could engrave it with something like 'November 13, 1997. Ron loves Hermione.'" Shaking his head he shrugged. "I dunno."

"Either that, or we can send Hedwig with it down to Tonks herself," Harry pointed out. "She bought Ginny's necklace for me, she knows - stuff like that, she's right fit about dealing with these things." Harry shrugged and grinned back at Ron. "I think that's a great one. Though you mind want to go with 11/13/97, just for space. You have to think about these things," Harry said with a sage nod.

Ron nodded and pointed to Harry in agreement with his whole date point. "Oh, yeah? Tonks'd do that?" He asked, thinking it might be a hell of a lot easier. "Maybe I'll do that then. You'd let me use Hedwig? I don't trust Pig with this one." He said with a smile, gesturing to his tiny owl over by the window in his cage, jumping about.

"Too jittery that one. He'd probably drop the thing."

"Don't say that! You'll hurt his feelings!" Ginny scolded. "How is he supposed to build confidence if you slash on him so!"

She nodded. "I'd trust Tonks myself. She gets so excited to do things like this, it makes her feel all sneaky, like it's a mission," she laughed. "Plus, she's just...a girl, she knows girl things like the right fonts and all of that."

"Of course, use Hedwig, she's aces," Harry told Ron. "She'll have you set in a blink. Then you just have to worry about how best to give the gift to Hermione."

Ron nodded, thinking just giving it to her in person would work out nicely. He had no reason to be embarrassed anymore now that he knew how she felt.

"Wish I had some firewhiskey left." He said, looking at them. "Now would be a good time for a celebratory drink." He then looked at Ginny. "And yeah, I would let you join." He said with a grin.

"And even if you hadn't, I would have insisted," she laughed, gently kicking Ron with her foot. Under all of the teasing and the goading, Ginny was so thrilled for her brother. Her emotions overwhelmed her, and she scrambled forward, leaning on the parchments to give him a large hug and then a smacking kiss on the cheek. "I'm so thrilled for you, Ron, really, this is so incredible."

Harry grinned, shaking his head slightly at Ginny's outpouring of affection. All he felt, honestly, was relief - finally, finally this was happening, something he knew each of them wanted for so long. Hermione's resignation, Ron's ulcer-causing second-guessing - they were his family, they were everything to him, and if they got their heart's desire, each other, wasn't that just the best thing in the world?

He gave Ron a smile. "I'm not gonna hug ya mate, but I agree. It's bloody brills."
