Soon Ron and Draco became the talk of the school and their relationship was the subject of endless gossip. They continued to play their roles to perfection, with Draco's transformation into a more open and friendly person surprising everyone, especially Neville and Draco started becoming like best friends and Pansy hated that.
Ron on the other hand to of course explain to his parents who were in shock by this he send them a owl. "Mum,Dad,I know this might be shocking but I've started seeing Draco Malfoy. It's a complicated situation but he's changing and i've seen a side of him that's really not so bad.Please don't be mad at me."
The response from his parents was surprisingly supportive,his mother had sent back an owl with a letter. "Ron, sweetheart, we only want you to be happy. If this makes you happy, then we're happy for you. Just be safe and know that we're here for you if things get tough. Remember, love can come in many forms, and who you choose is your own decision. Just make sure you're both treating each other with respect and kindness."
Ron was now noticed the way many girls and boys would stare at him,"Brother you're becoming famous now,it disgusting hearing girls and boys talk about you're mucles." Ginny said with a frown.
Hermione was usually the one to speak up about thing like this but something seem off with her and Ron could careless anyways. "Do they know i'm dating Draco?"
"Oh yes they know," Ginny said with a smirk. "But that doesn't mean's their gonna have a chance when you to break up."
Ron rolled his eyes, "Yeah,if that ever happenes."
Ginny giggled,"You know it will."
"Well make it all the way to the winter yule ball don't doubt us." Ron said serious but with a hint of excitement in his voice.
Ginny sighed and shake her head "Okay,okay. I'll stop teasing you.But remember to have fun okay?"
Ron nodded "Thanks sis." He said and gave her a hug.
"What did you two talk about." Draco said wrappign his arms around him.
"You know the usual,school,gossip, apperatnly girls and boys are falling inlove with my mucles," Ron said with a chuckle, and Draco nod.
"I've notice that by the way they stare," Draco said with a smirk, his arms still around Ron. "But let them drool,it fun seeing them do that." Draco laugh a little.
Ron chuckled and leaned into Draco's embrace. "I guess so," he said, his voice muffled against Draco's shoulder. Draco just rub Ron back. "By the way I think our plan working by the way." Draco whispered into his ear.
Ron just nod,and lift his head back up staring down at Draco,he really look beautiful today,he was wearing a sky blue sundress and the necklace Ron got him.
"Yeah,it is," Ron said,his voice a little hoarse. "By the way,you're wearing the necklace i got you."
Draco looked down at the blue necklace with a small smile. "Yes,I am," he said softly, his eyes meeting Ron's. "By the way I think Hermione has a crush on you."
Ron mind went blank he was not expecting that "What?What makes you say that?"
"The way she looks at you when she thinks no one is looking,she's not good at hiding it." Draco said with a smug smile on his face. Ron really didn't wanna hear about Hermione right now. "She also glares at me during potions class,I swear she plannign something."
Ron frowned, "What do you mean?" He was confused because Hermione he knew she was acting weird but not that weird.
Draco shrugged, "It's just a feeling I have, she keeps glancing over here, her eyes are burning holes through me."
Ron chuckled, "It's probably because we're causing a scene." He looked around the Great Hall and noticed indeed, that many students were watching them with varying expressions of shock and awe. "But if she does have a crush on me, it's not going anywhere. We're just friends, always have been."
Draco's smile grew sly. "Aw you're going to break Granger heart like that" Draco smiled. "I honestly thought you two would end up together." Draco said shocking Ron.
"What? Ew!No, Draco!" Ron said and Draco just rolled his eyes. "So dramatic anyways I have to get to class see you later!" Draco said about to walk away but Ron grab his waist pulling him back.
"You're forgetting something," Ron whispered into Draco's ear, his breath tickling the sensitive skin beneath Draco's ear. Draco's body stiffened before he turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow.
"In front of everyone?" Draco asked, his voice low and skeptical.
Ron smirked and Draco glared at him. "You owe me a new hairbands,if I kiss you right now." Draco said.
Ron chuckled,his heart racing from the close proximity. "Alright,deal" He whispered back,his heart racing. Draco leaned in closer,his eyes locking with Ron's. Their lips met in a soft,quick peck and before anyone could react,Ron pulled away with a smug grin on his face.
The great hall erupted in whispers and gasps,students pointing and staring. Draco's cheeks were a lovely shade of pink as he turned and walked away,his hips swaying slightly with each step. Ron watched him go,his chest feeling lighter than it had in weeks.
The week went by in a blur of classes,quidditch practice and stolen moments with Draco. They were in the library one evening,studying for a upcoming potions test when Ron looked over to see Draco reading his book peacefully and Ron hate to admit it but he slowly falling for Draco.
He realize it himself when he started to know simple things and how he would glare at anyone if they touch Draco hair.
The potions test was approaching, and the library was filled with students buried in their books, their eyes glazed over from hours of studying. Draco sat at the table, his skirt hiked up slightly as he leaned over his potions textbook, his brow furrowed in concentration. His hair had been let down for the evening, cascading in soft waves around his face.
Ron couldn't help but be distracted by the way the candlelight danced in Draco's eyes, the way his pink lips pursed as he read over a particularly difficult section. He cleared his throat and leaned over the table, his arm brushing against Draco's bare skin. "You okay there, Malfoy?" He asked, his voice low and teasing.
Draco jumped slightly before looking up at him, his eyes widening in surprise before narrowing into a glare. "Don't call me that," he hissed, his cheeks flushing an even deeper shade of pink.
Ron held up his hands in mock surrender. "Sorry, sorry," he said with a chuckle. "I keep forgetting." He leaned closer, his eyes lingering on Draco's lips. "How's the studying going?"
Draco's glare softened, and he sighed, closing his book. "It's going,okay." Draco said looking at Ron who just nod. "By the way,Harry told me a look pretty today."
Ron's eyes widened in shock, "Harry said that?" Draco nodded his head and Ron couldn't help but feel a little jealous. "What else did he say?"
"Oh,he want to try to be friends with me!" Draco said,smiling a little and Ron did not like that at all.
Draco looked at him with a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "What's wrong,Weasely?"
Ron frowned, his grip on his quill tightening. "Nothing," he said through gritted teeth. "It's just... I don't trust him."
Draco tilted his head, his curiosity piqued. "Why not?"
Ron took a deep breath, trying to organize his thoughts. "It's just...Harry's always had everything he wants,what if he wants to steal you away from me." Draco gaze soften.
"Ron,Harry just want to be friends with me,plus me and Neville are like best friends,oh by the way Neville brough these little friendship braclet which is so adorable he just adorable.
Ron sighed, "I know he does,but Harry always get what he wants,it's like he doesn't know how to take 'no' for an answer." Draco's smile grew softer,his eyes filled with understanding.
"Ron,trust me,i'm not going anywhere," Draco said,his hand covering Ron's. "Besides,you're the one who's been here with me through all this,helping me change."
Ron's frown eased,his heart racing as Draco's hand remained on his. "I know,it's just that..."
"You're just being possessive," Draco finished for him with a knowing smirk. "It's quite...flattering,really."
Ron felt his cheeks heat up and he quickly averted his gaze. "Whatever," he mumbled,and Draco laugh.
