-Where Did I Go Right?-
Disclaimer: I do not own the Harry Potter characters, they all belong to J.K. Rowling and I do not own the song "Where Did I Go Right?" sung by Hilary Duff. I'm not a fan of hers but this song just sparked an idea.
A/N: This story takes place at a time when Harry and Hermione are dating just because they are and this is from Hermione's point of view. Lyrics will be in italics.
Being story. . .
I'm always too lateI see the train leaving
I'm always laughing
When it's not cool to smile
I always wanted to love you Harry, I always wanted to be close to you. But I never actually was able to convince myself that one day I'd end up with you. I didn't think that one day I'd be able to stand next to, hold your hand and tell others that you were mine.
I'm always aimingBut somehow I keep missing
So how did you get here
Something is wrong
Maybe we weren't meant to be because I don't remember why you're here. Sometimes I think that there's something wrong, that I didn't make the right choice and that maybe there's someone else who you'd prefer to be close to.
I always dreamed of this day, the day when you'd love me back. But the glint in your eyes doesn't seem as sincere as it was yesterday. Your kisses don't feel as promising as they used to. Your warm hand in mine isn't gripping my fingers tight enough.
Where did I go rightHow did I get you
How come all this blue sky is around me
And you found me
Where did I go right
How did I get you
I don't know how I did
But somehow now I do
I look back on the times I dreamt about you, when I was wishing and hoping for something beyond my wildest dreams. But I never saw the face of my dream man, I just assumed it was you but didn't know.
Maybe there's something that I'm missing, something I don't have. I don't think that anything's right and everything's a mess. Maybe I need someone else, Mr. Right hasn't knocked on my door just yet.
I'm always drivingForget where I'm going
Should have turned left
But I was singing some song
And I, I am arriving
As everyone's leaving
But there you are waiting
Something is wrong
You look me in the eyes and hold me tight. I don't know what's coming, I don't know what you're about to say. I can almost sense that it's something bad, something isn't right. Your deep green eyes are wet with tears. Why were you crying?
You pull me close and embrace me, but your touch is not loving, but full of sympathy. I expect that you're going to kiss me but instead you grasp my hand and look me in the eyes.
You tell me and you're talking slowly, grasping for words. You tell me you're leaving that you've found your soul mate. You tell me this is goodbye but that you'll always be there for me. I hoped that you'd give me just one more kiss so I could know if you still loved me.
But then Someone comes up behind you and taps your shoulder. You spin around and pick her up. Her flaming red hair draped over her shoulders. You hold her with a loving embrace and then put her down. You pull her towards you and kiss her. You kiss her with more passion than you ever kissed me with.
How could you? How could you betray me right in front of me? How could you do this?
I want to go away.
I want to leave this world.
Tears fill my eyes.
Makes no sense to meNo it isn't clear
I turn and run, not watching where I'm going. Suddenly, I run into something- someone. I look up at this person. I see deep blue eyes, red hair and a handsome face.
"'Mione, what's wrong? I heard that-"
But before he could say anything else, it was clear to me. Everything came clear. Here he was, my dream man. The person I'd been dreaming about for all those years.
Not thinking about what I was doing, I pulled him towards me and on my toes I kissed him square on the lips then pulled away, embarrassed. Maybe he didn't feel the same way about me?
I look down at my shoes. . . But then, he lifts my chin with his hand and looks into my eyes. But before I could apologize, he kissed me like I'd never been kissed before. He kissed me like he loved me and I loved him back. He kissed me like I saw them kissing.
Except. . . it was oh, so much better to do the actual kissing.
But somehow you're standing hereSomething gets to me
It's that nothing is wrong
End story. . .
