Hermione had been wandering the halls of hogwarts alone for the past hour, thinking over the moment that haunted her. During a charms lesson over a week ago, Lavender Brown had dropped her parchment, and Ron who was sitting next to her went to pick it up for her. Lavender's hand went to get the parchment too, and their hands brushed against each other as they looked up at each other.
Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hermione who was watching from the other side of the room caught this little incident. A Pang of jealously shot through her, she liked Ron, no…she loved Ron. She could feel the tension between them from where she was sitting, and she hated it.
Ron gave Lavender a goofy smile and she blushed, to the same colour of his hair.
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl:
Her Gryffindor courage never came when he was near her, or he would never get the hint.
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Hermione's dreamt that she would be with Ron someday, but they never would be together because now he had Lavender and Hermione was alone in the halls of Hogwarts.
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl
A flashback of that moment that Ron had kissed her cheek, as a bid goodnight. Her and Ginny had a long discussion about that moment, but Hermione decided not to act on it.
Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
If it was that simple. Like a Disney movie, where the princess always gets the prince to go on to live happily ever after. But that was not meant to be, with Voldimort looming over them like a puppeteer.
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in
Ron had been more protective of her since the ministry battle, Hermione's heart gave a leap when he had done that. Ron soon found another person to swoon over.
Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl:
Ron only wants her for her looks…Hermione kept saying that in her mind because it was like a bandage.
Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl:
She wiped her eyes from the dried tears and walked of to her dorm, to find her friends.
