Harry and Hermione

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I woke up that day to a pair of chocolate brown eyes. Hermione was lying next me shaking my arm. I lifted my head off my pillow and looked at Hermione. She smiled broadly and stopped shaking my arm.

"About time you woke up, Harry. I've been shaking your shoulder for ages. We need to get up and go to breakfast. And we also need to do our Head boy and girl duties." She said. She continued telling me everthing she had planned for today and that the head boy and girl have the same classes together. Potions, DADA, Herbology, Ancient Runes, and other classes. I barely heard what she was talking about because I was distracted by her beautiful face. I watched her eyes light up when she talked about school and classes. I watched the way her pink lips moved and how she moved her hands around when she is excited. I couldn't help leaning in. I leaned forward and kissed her stopping her lecture short. She was surprised at first but then she started kissing me back. I pulled away after a few minutes and tried to catch my breath. Hermione lifted her hand up and felt her bottom lips which was swollen from the kissing. After a few minutes of silence I started regretting that kiss. I got up and walked into the bathroom and changed into a pair of black slacks and a white button-up shirt. I buttoned up all of the slits except for the top two. I walked back into her room not looking up as I grabbed my glasses and shoved them on quickly.

"Harry," She whispered.

I turned to look at her with a quick smile," Sorry about that. Your just to beautiful for your own good. But I'll try to control myself. I know you....don't feel the same way about me and I understand that."

"What do you mean "I don't feel the same way." She asked.

I walked back over to her, grabbed her hand, and pulled her up to a standing position, a hairsbreadth away. I kissed her softly on the lips before answering her question.

"I know that you have always thought of me as just a friend," I told her.

"That's partially true."

"When we were out going to get horcruxes, I started to get feelings for you. I didn't know I could care for anyone that way except for Ginny, but I did. As we started growing closer, I came to a realization that I was in love with you. And then when Ron came back, I was....jealous."

"Jealous? Why would you be jealous?"

I blushed scarlet and stared into her eyes," I new at the time that you had feelings for Ron. And when he came back, I thought you would end up forgiving him and you two would start dating."

"Why did't you tell me this before?"

"You...I mean....I don't know," I sighed.

"Harry James Potter," She said. I looked at her in shock.

"What?"

"How could you think that I don't love you too."

"Do you?"

"Yes, I love you. Of course I love you and nothing can change that."

I leaned forward and kiss her slowly but passtionately. When we broke away she was breathing heavily.

"What will Ron think about us dating?" I asked curiously.

"Ron has nothing to do with us," She stated.

"Hermione Jean Granger, will you be my girlfriend," I asked.

"Yes," She whispered. I kissed her quickly before dragging her out into the corridor.
