Sadly, There Is More Than Us

{7} Beauty Is Interrupted

I feel so drawn to her. Every look, every smile.... every scowl too. I am just utterly drawn to her. I can't hide it anymore. I'm hurting her, but I can't tell her my secret can I? She'd hate me. She would never look at me the same. No I can't do that..... But I can't stay away from her. 

My head is running, sprinting, Merlin it's doing cartwheels. I have to have her. That was the whole point of going here right? To feel a little normal?.... to not have the burden of that secret. I walk up the corridors, headstrong, completely ignoring everyone around me. It's sunny out and Harry and Ron are spending their afternoon out in the courtyard, as are most of the school. They said that Hermione wanted to be alone. I know where she'd be and it is my priority to get to her, and let her know how much I care. The sent of amortentia still bringing euphoria to my brain. 

As I thought, she is  alone reading in the common room, by the fireside. I walk with speed into the common room. She looks up from her book, surprised to see me, she stands up. 

"Y/n, I'm-"

I hold her face and kiss her softly, completely interrupting whatever she was about to say.  She grabs my waist and kisses me back and I can feel her smiling through the kiss.

"I'm sorry." I rush through my sentence, "You were right. I'm sorry. I feel so drawn to you. This connection. You were right, It's not one-sided. I'm not afraid, or ashamed to say it. Hermione I-" 

She kisses me again, deeper than before. Again I feel her almost giggling with joy. 

"Oh hush Y/N. I'm always right", she kisses me again. "You'll catch on to that eventually." She holds me close and kisses me again, rougher now, with more eagerness and longing. We back up onto the sofa. She lies down and I get on top of her, kissing down her jawline. "Merlin... You... Are.... Stunning" I say between kisses, and she looks into my eyes before grabbing my face roughly again to kiss me. "follow me", she says looking at me lustfully. 

She holds my hand and leads me to our dorm rooms. She locks the door behind us and smiles as she pushes me onto her bed. She straddles me and kisses me deeper and deeper. She grinds lightly on top of me which causes my mouth to part a bit and our tongues intertwine. She smiles, pleased with herself as we fall back, lying on the bed. She prompts herself up by her elbows for a moment and look into my eyes. Every freckle on her nose and cheeks  move gracefully into a nose-scrunch and a smile. 

I kiss her on the nose. and she giggles, leaning down to kiss me again. "Y/N!, Hermione!" I hear Ron yell from outside the door. Hermione groans lightly. "Maybe if we are really quite he'll go away", she smirks, and I laugh. "Yes, Ron?" I yell back. 

"Dinner is starting soon and Dumbledore is announcing the Triwizard Champions!"
