THREESummary: They kiss and then they watch television. Like friends do.
"Yesterday, I learned you wanted me and without even knowing it, I'd hurt you," Ron said, moving closer to Harry which only caused Harry to take a step back. "Today, I know I want you back. I've always wanted you. I just didn't think it was possible or maybe I just didn't want to shatter what we already have."
"And...?"
"Tomorrow, I can only hope you'll still be with me. Even if it doesn't work."
"You think we won't even work for a day?" Harry said, feeling confused.
"I don't mean literally tomorrow, Harry!" Ron said, annoyed which only caused Harry to burst out laughing.
"You shouldn't try analogies," Harry said.
Ron shook his head and pulled Harry closer. "And you should shut up and kiss me."
"So what does it mean?" Harry asked, finally, after Ron pulled away from him. He tasted mint with hints of orange juice. Harry closed his eyes and bit his lower lip, taking it all in. He needed to savour this moment. Who knew if Ron would change his mind. What if he decided it wasn't worth it.
Ron shrugged and turned away from him. He took his seat back at the table and picked up the paper. "You decide."
"About what?"
"How you want to take this. Do you want to date? Do we start sleeping in the same bed from now on... I don't know how slow or fast you want to take it. I just wanted to tell you that I'm in. I'm not going on anymore dates. Not unless you say we're through."
"Okay," Harry said thoughtfully as he sat across from Ron. "We need a plan."
Ron threw his head back and laughed. "Our plans never work."
"Fine, then what do you suggest?"
Ron got up off his chair and wrapped his hand around Harry's wrist, pulling him up. "Let's watch some telly," he said. He guided them to the sitting room as Harry turned the television on and sat next to Ron. Close.
Ron snuggled himself even closer. A moment later, Ron was resting his head on Harry's shoulder. Five minutes later, they were flat on the sofa, Ron on top of him.
