Nodding nervously, Hermione took a deep breath, one that shook as it passed through her lips. Of course, she'd thought about sex on multiple occasions before— it was all part and parcel of being someone who prepared herself as carefully as Hermione usually did— but she hadn't gone very far, comparatively, in trying to understand the mechanics of it. There was only so much that words could make clear, after all, and resorting to pictures, diagrams, or worse yet, videos, just seemed a bit much. Now she wondered if that was a mistake, suddenly feeling cold and nervous as Ron's gaze wandered. She reached out with a careful hand that slid down the side of his body, lingering by his hip, and nodded.
"Of course," she replied, managing a slight smile. "You know how I am. I don't think we'll have a problem there."
Small joke aside, she leaned up to kiss him again, slow and soft, with every intention of offering reassurance. Trying to coax him down and closer as well as she could, Hermione pulled one leg up until her thigh brushed against his hip, and ran a free hand down her own side to help find the proper mood again. A soft sigh escaped her lips as she broke briefly for air, then kissed again, a soft moan quiet in the back of her throat as she reached for his hand, twining their fingers to guide it further down.
It seemed a bit easier than trying to explain with words.
