Potter, Be Mine

The Dream

"Katie!" Hermione breathed. She had walked in with Harry and neither of us had noticed. 

"Hermione! Harry! I can explain!" Ron and I said at the same time. Hermione was already sobbing. 

"You can explain?! You can explain how you were, what did you say again? Oh, yeah- 'Afraid to say you love her'!" she cried. I looked at Harry- there was a tear rolling down his cheek. I began to cry too- what I had done just fully processed in my head. 

"Katie! Katie!" Hermione suddenly said. 

"Huh, what?!" I yelled, waking up with a start. 

"You were crying in your sleep." Hermione said. I looked around. We were still in Hermione's room, it was only Thursday. I looked up into her tear stained face. 

"Why were you crying?" I asked, rubbing my head. I had a pounding headache. 

"You were narrating your whole dream." she whispered. My eyes widened in realization. 

"Hermione, I swear that dream meant nothing!" She just sat back down on her bed. I got up from mine and plopped right back onto hers. 

"That's all it was! OK, a silly dream!" I explained. More tears left her eyes. 

"Hermione, please. I swear, Harry is the only person I love!" She looked as shocked as I felt. 

"Really? Harry?" she asked. 

"Let's not talk about that right now..." I said, still trying to recover myself from what I just said. Was it true? Had I really just chose Harry over Draco?

"I was scared that you really did love Ron." she said mostly to herself. 

"Trust me, I don't! I love him like a brother!" she ignored me. 

"It would've ruined everything." 

"Yes, I know. That is part of the reason I don't love him like you do." She continued to talk to herself. 

"But you can't love him like I do because you love Harry." She finally looked up at me. "You chose Harry! You did, didn't you?" Her cheerful face was so in contrast with her heartbroken one earlier it kinda scared me. 

"I think I did." I couldn't help the smile tugging at my own lips. Hermione embraced me in one of the warmest hugs she had ever given me. 

"Wait, so, your not upset anymore?" I asked. 

"What? Of course not! I mean, I was... But this is great!" I laughed. 

"Well, it's five-thirty in the morning... I would say we go back to sleep but I doubt I can get you to fall asleep again." I said. She chuckled. 

But as we got dressed and had breakfast, and for the rest of the day really, I couldn't stop thinking about Draco and Harry. I was so happy about finally making a choice, one that didn't really seem to take as much effort as I thought it would. I thought I would be up all night, miserable, trying to make an impossible decision for the next day. Hermione noticed but she didn't say anything. Which I was extremely grateful for, I knew how hard it was for her. 

But in the end I realized that even though I felt horrible for breaking Draco's heart- there was nothing stopping us from being friends. I mean, yeah, it would be awkward and really hard for all of us, but he was very important to me. Draco was worth that effort. So, yeah, I did choose Harry. 

Hey guys! So... what did you think? Did I make a good mystery/cliff hanger thing with the dream? Was Harry the right choice? Even I'm still not completely convinced about it... Anyways, comment what you think!  

Also, I want to ask your opinion on something- should I write another book? I have an idea for a sequel where after they all leave Hogwarts, they start trying to build new lives and stuff, like becoming grown ups. Except for Ron, he will forever be a child in my heart. But then, because I wanted something with some action, Lucius Malfoy goes after them! He is trying to kill them for supposedly ruining his life. So comment if you think I should do it! Please leave any comment, it would mean a lot. Thanks again and keep reading!
