Hermione's Girl Crush

Part 36: Breakfast and Mates

Hermione walk with a little more of a pep in her step that next morning. She walked into the dining hall with a hopeful look in her eye. When she caught a glance of Lilith. Tall and strong with a charming smile on her face as she laughed with some of her friends at the Ravenclaw table Hermione blushed and a large goofy looking smile appeared on her face. 

Lilith was mid-sentence with her mates when she notice Hermione confidently walking over. Lilith's sentence trailed off as she saw Hermione's hair bounce slightly as she walk. Hermione landed just next to Lilith, books clutched against her chest, 

"Good morning" Hermione smiled, disregarding the others at the table, who were watching intently, 

"Good morning," Lilith's voice was low and gravely like a fire in the morning, "You look ravishing," She smiled reaching an arm around Hermione to hold her and help her take a seat. Hermione took a quick deep breath and she sat, regaining her confidence. 

The plate in front of her already had some eggs and toast and bacon on it, and a fresh cup of tea just sat above. Hermione looked up to Lilith to ask about the food in front of her, but Lilith had already joined back in the conversation. 

Hermione was not upset by this but was hoping that Lilith would pay her a little more attention before returning to her friends. But just as Hermione thought about such things Lilith's arm wrapped around Hermione, pulling her closer to her on the bench. 

With Lilith pulling the both of them closer to each other, the whole left side of Hermione's body was against Lilith's. A red flush brushed across Hermione's face. 

As breakfast continued Hermione began to join the conversation with Lilith and her mates. They were some really nice people, they were asking her questions, but not pestering her. She laughed with them and started to feel like part of the group. As some of them started to run off to some other friends and love prospects Lilith turned her head to look down at Hermione and whispered in her ear, 

"If any of this is too much we can head off to somewhere a little more quiet and private," Hermione pulled back slightly to see Lilith better,

"Thank you, but I actually really like these guys, They're nice," Hermione thought a minute, "Although I would like you to properly meet my friends," She smiled at Lilith. A small blush appeared on Lilith's face, 

"You're beautiful," Lilith smiled back at Hermione looking into her eyes for a long pause, "Now where are these friends you want me to meet?" Lilith looked around the dining room in an exaggerated way, the both of them beginning to laugh. 

Hermione gripped Lilith's arm, 

"You'll meet them later," She said through laughter. Lilith and Hermione looked into each other's eyes once more, smiles on both of their faces.
