Accidentally in Love
Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the plot.
Chapter 1 – The Nightmare
The beautiful girl ran through the dark and forbidding dungeon, trembling with tears running down her face. The dungeon, with its dark stone walls and blood smears were her opinion of hell. She was told to stay above ground, but she couldn't bear to let anyone hurt or worse kill her love, but that failed. She had never felt so much pain in her life. The lost of love, was enough to drive any one crazy.
The girl gulped, and continued to run even though it pained her to leave HIM behind, even though there was no use helping him. After all he was already dead. The girl ran her fingers through, her long curly brown hair, thinking of him, and the times they shared before this. So what if she wasn't what his family considered 'perfect'. Nobody deserved this kind of pain. The only person as close to him as she, was his sister, but she was dead too. The girl suddenly collapsed, giving up all possible hope. Nothing could be done. Then she slowly looked up and saw the man she had come to despise. She stared into his hateful blue eyes. He looked smug, even though he just did the unthinkable! Murdering his two children. Those blue eyes.just like HIS eyes! The girl's lip trembled, but she tried to look brave, "You can kill me, but you can NEVER change what you did, you monster!" The wicked man smiled full of malevolence, "Shut up, mudblood! You and my foolish son and daughter got what they deserved." The girl braced herself as she heard that horrible curse being muttered from the man's lips, "Avada Kedavra!" Green light filled everything, and pain shot through the girl's body. Even though she was on the brink of death she retorted, "All in the name of love.."
Hermione Granger woke up immediately. She felt a cold sweat break out on her forehead. Hermoine shuddered. How she hated that cursed nightmare that came to haunt her every single night. Even though she constantly tried to tell herself it was just a dream, it awoke her with horror every single night.
Hermione groaned and rolled over to check her digital clock. It said: 4:00 AM. Hermoine sat up cursing to herself, "The one night when I need decent sleep, I need to be awoken by some stupid nightmare."
She needed the sleep, for today was the day that she, Ginny, Lavender, Parvati, and Padma were going on their trip. They were going on a cruise in the Caribbean, muggle style. No magic what-so-ever was going to be used or seen (not that they could anyway, being under-age). They were meeting at the airport at 10 am for the flight. (a/n: I'm not sure how long it would take to get from London to Florida but I'm guessing its around 7 hrs? and its about a 5 hr time difference.. yeah you do the math…).
Hermoine looked back over at the clock. 4:30. She shook her head, and gave up hope of anymore sleep. She slowly got out of bed and began to look through all her schoolbooks. Hermoine loved school and to read. Her two best friends, Harry and Ron, may have found this annoying, but Hermoine loved them anyway.
She sighed deeply lost in thought. Hopefully this year no ones life would be in danger, like her past years at Hogwarts. Maybe this year would be peaceful and calm. However, if Harry Potter was your best friend. That wasn't possible.
Hermoine got up and walked in the blue and white tiled bathroom. She stared in the mirror and began to brush her curly chestnut hair. She changed quite a bit over the summer. Her hair was not longer bushy. It was now straight and had a few layers in the front that framed her sparking brown eyes well. She also wasn't as boyish, she was curvier. She also lost her huge front teeth. Well, they've been gone since the 4th year. Hermoine grinned. She actually felt pretty.
After doing her morning routine which consisted of taking a shower, brushing her teeth (and flossing of course!), and then blow-drying her hair, she stepped back out into her room and looked for an outfit to wear. "Well, Florida's much warmer than here, so maybe a t-shirt with jeans. But plane's are kind of cold…I'll take a jacket." She ended up wearing an off the shoulder, form-fitting brown shirt, white jeans, and a brown belt. (a/n: I stole this outfit from one of my friends .. ok I'll shut up now…) She glanced at the clock again, 6:00am. Sighing, she pulled out her suitcase and started filling it with clothes.
I turned on my stereo which my iPod was hooked up to. Browsing through the songs quickly, I came across one of my favorites. I began singing along with it as I folded my clothes into the suitcase.
"So she said what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time
I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it
How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love
Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love
So I said I'm a snowball running
Running down into the spring that's coming all this love
Melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love
Well baby I surrender
To the strawberry ice cream
Never ever end of all this love
Well I didn't mean to do it
But there's no escaping your love
These lines of lightning
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone, no, no
Come on, Come on
Move a little closer
Come on, Come on
I want to hear you whisper
Come on, Come on
Settle down inside my love
Come on, come on
Jump a little higher
Come on, come on
If you feel a little lighter
Come on, come on
We were once
Upon a time in love
We're accidentally in love
Accidentally in love
Accidentally
I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally
Come on, come on
Spin a little tighter
Come on, come on
And the world's a little brighter
Come on, come on
Just get yourself inside her
Love ...I'm in love"
Just as the song ended, her cell phone started ringing. She picked it up and cautiously turned it on.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Hermione?"
"Ginny? I didn't know you had a phone, let alone know how to use it."
"Please, I've been in Muggle Studies like forever plus you know how dad is obsessed with muggles."
"Oh yeah, I forgot."
"Anyway, I was wondering if you could give me a ride there, to the airport I mean. Mainly because mum and dad don't know how to get there."
"How would you get to my house? Floo?"
"Yeah probably."
"Alright, that's fine with me. My parents are going to drop me off since it makes no sense to leave my car there for a week. Alright well come to my house around 10:00?"
"Okay, I'll see you then. Bye!"
"Bye."
As soon as she put the phone back on her bed there came a sharp knocking at the door. "Why is this morning so busy? First I wake up at ungodly hours of the morning, Ginny calls, and now this?" she muttered as she headed for the door.
As soon as she opened the door she screamed at what she saw.
A/N: What do you think? I'm trying not to be cliché and try something new but I don't know if you guys like it or not. Questions? Comments? Concerns? Please Review! It would mean a lot to me (insert smiley face here) hehe
