Chapter 3
Ron's nerves raced through him like a restless dragon. His brain played through several scenarios all day about how he was going to handle everything with Neville. He decided that the best thing to do was to show up early and be honest about what had happened. Ron kept glancing at the clock hoping that it would move faster. He was as clean and tidy as he was ever going to get. He had even used some of the fancy cologne Hermione had given him for Christmas, teamed with the shirt Ginny had bought for him. He finally left work an hour before he was supposed to meet Neville just to give himself enough time to get to the Ministry,
Neville was sitting at his neatly organised desk when he heard a knock on the door. He got up to open it and was shocked to see Ron standing on the other side.
“H....hi Ron. I...I was afraid you weren't going to show up after last night.” Neville swallowed loudly as he felt his face starting to blush again.
“Are you bonkers? Why would I pass up on the chance to see Oliver and Viktor again? I did come early though because I need to explain about what happened last night.” Ron desperately wanted Neville to know that he wasn't there just to see Oliver and Viktor, he just didn't want to frighten him away in his eagerness. He knew he was always putting his foot in his mouth and often the best course of action was to keep his gob firmly shut. This time he knew he'd have to talk Merlin, he hoped Neville wouldn't notice he was sweating with nerves already.
They stood in the doorway for several minutes,neither of them eager to start the conversation before Nevile realized what they were doing and invited Ron to sit down.
“I'm done for the day except for Oliver and Viktor's meeting. The Ministry likes for us to handle high profile clients after hours for their privacy. In order for me to get you in, I had to tell the Ministry that you are my partner. Is that OK?” Neville bit his bottom lip, hating the way his hands were shaking and knowing that Ron must be getting quite hot with the heat all this blushing must be giving out.
Ron stood there with a blank expression on his face. He looked around Neville's office, noticing all the plants and things that were just obviously typically Neville. Neville, the shy kid he'd watch become a man capable of wielding a mystical sword few could even touch. Neville the quiet kid who always stood by them, who had always tried to do what was right. Ron focused his attention on Neville's strong, capable hands and sighed softly. He finally mustered up the courage to speak. “S...Sure that's fine. Look about last night, I'm sorry. I never should have kissed you. I got caught up in the game and was so happy that England won. One more thing.... boy this is harder than I thought it was going to be.” Mustering his bravery, Ron looked up into Neville's eyes. “ I enjoyed the kiss. I completely understand if you don't want to see or speak to me after the meeting.”
“Wow, I guess it's time for my confession. I thought that you had heard the rumours that I was gay and wanted to find out if they were true. That's why I let you snog me for so long. I also enjoyed the kiss. Who knew Ron Weasley was such a great kisser?” Neville gave Ron his patented shy smile, which was returned with Ron's blindingly brilliant one. They both laughed out loud and began talking at the same time.
They talked for so long that they completely lost track of time. They jumped up as soon as Oliver and Viktor knocked at the door.
“Viktor, look how cute Neville and Ron look together. It reminds me of when we first started to date.” Oliver gushed.
Neville confided that Ron was only a friend, and that he had to lie to the Ministry so Ron could come in to meet them. They went on to explain to Oliver and Viktor all the events that had taken place over the last day. Oliver and Viktor shared knowing smiles as they watched Ron and Neville giggle at themselves
“Your save last night was wicked.” Ron complimented Oliver. “And Viktor. How you managed to catch the golden snitch just at the same time. It's Bloody Brilliant.”
While Ron was admiring the two athletes, Neville found the proclamation of marriage for two wizards.
“Here you go guys. You need to sign here and initial there. And you're done. Your copy will be mailed within the week.”
Ron asked if the happy couple could tell him how they met.
“Well Viktor had come to my first professional game right after I joined the team. Afterwards, he came into my dressing room to meet me. As soon as I opened the door, he kissed me and that was it. I fell in love with him shortly after that.”
They enjoyed listening to Oliver and Viktor take turns telling different stories of their dates, they lost track of time again.
“Would you look at how late it is?” Oliver said. “We need to get going.”
Ron was getting ready to walk out with the athletes, when Neville asked him if he still wanted to go for dinner. “Yeah, I'm starving. Do you have any place in mind?”
Neville suggested a restaurant, and they were off on their unofficial first date.
