Harmione and the Prisoner of Azkaban

The Boggart in the Wardrobe

"Have you seen Harry?" Hermione asked Ginny

"No," Ginny said "why?"

"Oh," Hermione started to blush "he asked me to help him with his homework," she ran off and went looking for Harry. Ginny shook her head, she would have to keep an eye on the pair. 

As September turned into October and Hermione and Harry began to hang around with each other much to the suspicions of the most of the Gryffindors. One October evening Harry and Hermione were sat by the lake holding hands, a talking about the lesson with Buckbeak. 

"Harry you were really brave to go on Buckbeak like that," Hermione said looking up at Harry smiling when she saw grin from Harry she blushed and her head fell

"Thank you, Hermione," Harry said smiling back at Hermione who squeezed his hands in response

"Hermione I need to ask you something," Harry said taking in a deep breath

"Yes, Harry?" Hermione said softly

"Well, you know we've been hanging out a lot and like we hold hands and that time you kissed me on the cheek at the Leaky Cauldron, I'm just asking not to make things awkward, Hermione do you- well like me?" Harry's cheeks grew hot and he started to blush as did Hermione

"Well, I- do!" Hermione said, "I can't hide it anymore!" Hermione shrieked before pouncing onto Harry and hugging him then pulling away blushing fiercely as Harry smiled

"Hide it?" Harry asked miling

"I've had a crush on you since the first year, but I was too scared to tell you and I hope you not mad and-" Hermione began to grow redder

"Don't worry Hermione, I've had a crush on you ever since that time you talked to me about being brave, and for when you saved me from the Buldger," Harry said and he could see that Hermione lit up and she threw her hands around Harry and kissed him on the cheek making them both turn red. She snuggled up to him and rested her bushy-haired on his chest and looked out the water, she never wanted that moment to end she looked up at a smiling Harry who looked the same.

"Hermione, should we tell anyone?" Harry asked

Hermione lifted her head up "Oh no, Harry I really do like you, but I'm not ready for the whole school or anyone to know. Not even Ron!" 

"Of Course, I feel the same," Harry said "Thank you,"

"For what?" Hermione asked beaming

"For being there for me," Harry paused "you know when I blew up Aunt Marge I did it because she was insulting my mum, and I ran up and I read your letters. I have seen that you're so happy in France, and then I knew I had to come back, for you and I couldn't just abandon the world I belong to, and you." Harry smiled as Hermione threw her hands around Harry and squeezed him and kissed him on the cheek and smiled. Harry blushed as they broke apart and then Hermione squeezed his hand and they went to the dining hall. 

GINNY POV

Pavarti looked out the window before she turned to Ron and Ginny who were having dinner and smiled"Do you think Hermione likes Harry?" Pavarti asked

"Why'd you say that?" Ron said as Ginny whipped her head around

"Well, in Buckbeak's lesson she kept on holding his hands and they've been hanging out so much, she just hugged him and kissed him on the cheek," Pavarti said. By now most the Gryffindor table were listening in.

"Yeah and she always blushes whenever we talk about Harry," Ron said

"That is true," Lavender said "And plus every free time she has she's looking for Harry or with him,"
