Shina--

I'm quite delayed in my review here, sorry about that.  I just wanted to reitterate that I really like this story.  My favourite part by far is your Hermione.  You write her very, very well, her dialogue and her actions.

And the poem is so lovely. 

Keep up the great work!   

Thank you so much for your review, Sarah! Your comment on Hermione means a lot to me. Sometimes, it's rather hard to write her in character, even though she's a very interesting character to fiddle with. And I'm very glad you liked my poem. You could say that the whole story stemmed from that poem.

Merry (early) Christmas!

Thank you for leaving a review! I'm very glad you liked every part of it.

Awwww. The poem was very Ron-esque.  Great job.  I'm more of an H/G-er, but I do enjoy R/H occasioanally, so well done.

Thanks for reviewing, Michelle! I'm glad that you enjoy this, despite it not being a H/G fic.

Aww! That was sweet.

I loved it.

I don't know if you're planning on it. But It would be great if you could write a sequel, telling what happens when Hermione gets to the Burrow.

Take care.

Thanks for reviewing!

I'm very glad that you loved it. I'm sorry, but I'm not intending to write a sequel, mainly because I really don't have a plot for it as of yet. And sequel is one of those things that you just can't push. However, you can always imagine how they would react, right? (Considering they're Ron and Hermione...)

Thanks for reviewing! Your compliments are really, really appreciated!

Thank you for reviewing! I'm very glad that you loved the poem. I was afraid that it might seem a bit out of character for Ron.  I believe him to be quite sweet and caring when he wants to, but he doesn't seem very much to be a poetry guy.

Excellent!

Thank you for taking your time and reviewing!

Thank you for the review! I'm glad you liked the poem, as that was what made me write the story in the first place.

Thanks! Yes, I've always viewed a little peck to be more effective than a long snog. There's just something warm and satisfying about them. About the buildup, yes, you're absolutely right. I do tend to be a bit more wordy than necessary - but I promise to try and cut down a bit.

Thanks for reviewing! The compliment you left is one of those that always make me glow. I'm really happy my story made you want to care more about Ron and Hermione. That, ultimately, is what all authors are after, hoping to make the readers care more about their main characters.
