Oh I just read this after reading the companion piece. This is quite nice as well. There were two passages that I especially loved.  This is similar to the one I liked from the H/G one."The wind swirled around them, lifting snow from the ground and sending it dancing back through the air, a thousand different stars against the velvet of the night. Hermione felt that familiar warm feeling pool in her stomach and bit her lip. She had a choice. It was one of those moments where whichever way you took it could change the rest of your life. She could turn and walk back to the castle with Ron as her friend, but if she did would she always wonder what she could have had? Alternatively she could take a risk…"

What struck me as sweet/funny/insightful was this bit. "For a minute it felt like what Ginny would call 'A moment.' It felt as though something was floating between them, something that was dying to be said. For a split second she considered saying something complimentary, but somehow she couldn't think of anything except "You have lovely eyes." And that sounded far too much like a trashy romance novel for her liking." One never wants to sound too much like a trashy or corny romance novel.

This story only makes me wonder, when on earth is  Ron  finally going to acknowledge his feeling for Hermione.

They would be so good together! Anyway thanks for giving a pre-view of what we all wish would happen soon.

Let's see if the Lady gives us this treat!

Thanks for a nice romantic story.

Happy Holidays!

Oh my! It is not very common to find beautiful, fluff about Ron and Hermione.  Since this is my first hristmas in Illinois  I was able to relate to the first snow. In Hermione's dialogue you verbalize that wonderful impression of the first snow. 

I just loved it. Can't wait for the

Harry and Ginny one.

I am happy to know I may be reading some nice sweet story on my favorite couple.

Thanks for a truly sweet story.

Happy Holidays!!!

Myth, this is just a wonderful story. The best sort of fluff fics are those that throw a little angsty suffering in, and poor old Hermione really has to earn her date with Ron.

This is definitely an instant favourite and, it almost goes without saying, I can't wait for the next chapter.

I think my favourite part - hard to choose - has to be when Ron produces her essay, all clean and sparkling. It's such a nice thing for him to have done, and it would have been easy to go down the 'and the ruined essay lay forgotten' route, but you show admirable restraint both in this, and in Ron's feather-light kisses.

This is a brilliant, seasonal, lovely story.

Wow. This was definitely one of the sweetest R/Hr Christmas fic I've ever read. You've captured both of them so wonderfully. I love this fic!

Bravo!  What more can I say.

Lovely! Great characterization of Hermione. But staring at Lavender Brown's chest? That would definitely make me NOT give Ron anything but the silent treatment.

Thanks for sharing this!

Yes, I should have made hot chocolate. Ah, well, I can always read it again later - it is certainly worth it.

Somebody must have poked Ron a few times - or is that Gryffindor courage finally showing up for use on girls?

Ah - what a lovely little tale! It really cheered me up and it goes to show that despite everything it's the small things that matter, the small things that show that you care and what greater gift can be given?
