Due to the fact Ron had been doing pretty poorly in his classes lately, Mcgonagall assigned him to tutoring everyday after school. Ron hated this, he thought he could be doing better things then extra school work but he went anyways. He barely ever paid attention to his tutor, his eyes and mind tended to wonder off to other things. It wasn't until about the third day of tutoring in the library that he saw a girl with beautiful y/h/c that fell effortlessly on her back. She wore a y/h robe and always sat in the same spot by the window.He never dared go over to her or try to say anything to her. He'd never in his six years at Hogwarts, seen this girl before so he figured she was new. As the days went on, he'd purposely do poorly on a quiz so he'd have to go back to tutoring in the library just to see her. Or he'd follow Hermione to her study hours just to get a glance at her. When Hermione finally realized what he was doing she called him out "why is it you keep coming to the library with me?" She asked in a whisper. Ron played dumb like he had no idea what she was talking about "you've never liked coming to the library" she stated
"I've always liked it! Its-it's...peaceful?" He said to which Hermione didn't believe "you hate it. You said it yourself it makes you tired. So why do you keep coming" he sighed then nodded over to the girl by the window, to focused on what ever she was writing to even look up and notice people were looking at her "a girl? You've been bugging my studies for a girl?" Hermione said annoyed "a bloody gorgeous girl!...d'yknow who she is though?" Ron said almost dazed. Hermione rolled her eyes and shook her head "no...perhaps she's new" Hermione went back to her work and Ron continued to watch the girl.
After about an hour, Hermione huffed and put her quill down "why don't you go and talk to her instead of burning a hole in her head" she said "no I couldn't" Ron said scared "yes you can, now go before I go call her over" she pushed him out his chair and he stumbled his way over to the book case behind the girl. He pretended to look for a book, but about five minutes into "looking" he chickened out and went to walk away. When he turned to walk away he turned to fast and bumped into the girls chair.
He flushed pink as the girl turned around startled "bloody hell" Ron said with wide eyes. It was the first time he'd seen the girls entire face up close and he thought she was drop dead gorgeous. "I'm so sorry I just-I was just-" the girl laughed and it made Ron go a dark red "it's alright, I guess I'm sort of close to the shelf, aren't I?" Ron shook his head frantically "no! No...I was just being stupid, you're...fine" he said dreamily making the girl laugh again. They stared at each other for a second before the girl chuckled "well I have to get back to this...I'll see you around"
Ron nodded and smiled slightly "yea-yea definitely" the girl turned back to her paper and Ron went back over to Hermione. Hermione laughed hysterically as Ron sat back at the table, still bright red "it's not that funny" he mumbled. Hermione doubled over as she tried to keep quiet "you-you got so red!" She said through her laughs. Ron rolled his eyes and eventually Hermione calmed down and went back to her studying. From that day forward the girl flashed Ron a quick smile but he only ever really saw her in the library. Hermione made sure she told the rest of the Weasleys and Harry what happened that night at the library and they've all been trying to figure out who this girl was.
"I'm still not fully convinced she's real, I mean do you even know her name?" Harry said as they walked the packed corridors going to their next class. "She is! And she's bloody gorgeous!" Harry looked over to Hermione "it's true, she's very pretty. But I'm convinced she's a ghost, we only ever see her in the library, and no, he does not" Ron shook his head and tried to brush off the fact they were right and he never asked the girl for a name "there's no way, she was solid" the two laughed at him and they walked into class. They sat through the lesson, Ron and Harry being bored and confused like always, until their was a knock on the door.
Flitwick opened the door from his stand at the front of the class and in walked a girl, the girl. Ron smacked Harry's arm frantically "that's her!" He whispered "that's the girl from the library!" He added. The girl gave the professor a envelope then turned to walk back out the class but noticed Ron. She smiled and waved shyly "hello again" she whispered. A goofy grin played at Ron's lips and he turned a red "h-hi" he whispered back as she passed. Harry chuckled "smooth Ron" he teased. Ron rolled his eyes and shoved Harry.
After the lesson Harry and Hermione continued to tease Ron on how easily red he got at the sight of the girl "you think he'll ask her out?" Harry asked from Ron's left to Hermione who stood on Ron's right. She shook her head no "he's to scared" Ron scoffed "I'm right here you gits" the two laughed "you can't be mad Ron, it's more likely you don't ask her out then you do" they group stopped walking and Ron stood in front of the two. "A little faith would be nice y'know?"Harry shrugged "we don't mean it to be harsh it's just, unlikely you'll tell her"
Ron scoffed and began to walk backwards towards the great hall "you'll see, I'll ask her, and she'll say yes and-" before he could finish he crashed into something or more so someone by the way it yelped. There was a small thud as books hit the floor then Ron tripped over those and he too was on the floor "aw sorry" Ron said as he got to his knees to pick the books up "it's fine, I should've looked up" Ron's eyes shot up at the sound of the familiar voice. His eyes widened as he saw the girl "oh! No! Uhm-I'm so sorry-totally my fault" he said picking up the rest of her things and standing up.
He held his hand out for her to grab which she did "you again" she said with a smile "me again" Ron said with a nervous chuckle "do you always bump into people this much or is it just me?" She joked as she fixed her books "I uhm-I guess it's just you" the group stood in a small silence. "name" Harry said in a fake cough. The girl stared at the trio confused "oh right, I'm Ronald-Ron!Weasley" he stuck his hand out and the girl took it with a laugh "Ron Weasley" Ron said with a sigh "y/n y/l/n, it's a pleasure Ronald" she said, a small smirk playing at her lips.
The silence took over once again and Hermione cleared he throat "y'know me and Harry actually have to go back to...the common room! We'll see you later Ron. Y/n it was a pleasure meeting you" she said as they began to walk off. Ron turned back to y/n slightly shocked "did...they just leave you?" She asked "yea...they did" this made y/n laugh and Ron smiled at her "well, if you're not with anyone" he paused as she raised and eyebrow "I mean-if you don't have a boyfriend" he shook his head "no-I mean if your friends aren't waiting for you- I was just wondering if you'd maybe want to-I don't know"
Y/n laughed finally "are you asking me to join you for dinner?" Ron sighed and nodded "I'd love to" she added "Brilliant!-I mean, wicked" she shook her head and laughed then lead the way to a table and they spent the rest of the night together.
