"Oh. Alright," Ron said, his expression breaking into a wide grin, "Blimey."
He'd hoped she'd say what she just had, but had been more prepared to have to stand to get dressed, really. But that was the thing about Hermione-- one of the more amazing things, he thought-- one second she was set on following every rule in the bleeding book, but then moments like this one came along. Ron could feel his own face flush, and it was a good thing Hermione likely couldn't see them at the moment, because he was pretty sure his hears had gone all red.
He leaned in to return the kiss in earnest, settling farther back on the mattress as well. He shifted his weight to prop himself up on his own elbow, leaned slightly over her as they kissed. Maybe it was barmy to think about how someone tasted, but the part of his brain still working right then couldn't help but think about how great Hermione both tasted and smelled. A bit like books and perfume and something else he couldn't put his finger on, but was sure drove him a bit mad when they were this close.
So, did this mean she wanted to do more than just snog? Bloody hell, it would have been easier if he could just ask, but he should probably already know this. Well, she'd told him it was alright for him to still be there without a shirt, so maybe that'd been the same thing as her saying so. Ron could hear his heart beating in his ears as he did so, but after a moment's hesitation, he brought up one hand to her chest where he tentatively cupped her.
