Harry was walking down the stairs, at the bottom of the stairs awaited the only women he would ever love. Hermione Jean Granger was the true love of his life. He had dated other girls, but this was the only women who had always been in his heart. He was planning on sharing that with her tonight. He never wanted to be without her again. He was surprised that she wasn't taken by someone else. He was planning on telling her in a way that he thought she would like; he was going to give her a book of their life stories up until that point. It was magical, so it had real events and pictures.
Hermione was walking down the stairs toward Harry Potter, her best friend in the world. She was attending this ball tonight with him as a cover. Her real love was attending the ball with someone else, she was crushed. It had been explained to her during one of their long nights making love. He had family responsibility and couldn't be in public with her yet. But he did love her; he told her and showed her many times. She was blissfully happy that she didn't have to pretend with Harry.
Harry was so excited to give Hermione the Love Book; he thought he might take a sneak peek. He was surprised when the 1st page had a picture of his Lily and James Potter; the page across from it had a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Granger. He shoved the book back into his back pocket and waited for the right time to give it to her. He was so excited. She had come down the stairs and placed her hand in his. She laughed a sound that he loved. It sounded like twinkling glass. It made his heart sing. She followed Harry into the ballroom.
Her eyes were looking for her love. She knew he was here and he looked handsome. He had shown her the outfit he planned to wear tonight in advance so that she could see him. She scanned the room and came upon him sitting at the table with his date. God, she hated that woman. He pulled Harry over to the table where her lover was sitting; she had arranged that they and their date would sit together. She pulled out her chair and sat down, Harry next to her and Malfoy across from her. She smiled because she knew that she was the one going home with him tonight. They had a house together in Amsterdam and meet there many nights a week. She couldn't wait to get back there tonight and have him take off her lovely dress. She wanted to feel his fingers run along her thighs as he pulled off her stockings. He wanted to feel the heat of his lips on the back of her neck. She shivered at the thought and took a sip of her champagne. Harry placed his hand on her leg and she flinched. She didn't want Draco to get mad at her, so she removed Harry's hand.
Harry had decided that he was going to be bold tonight. He was going to tell her and show her how he felt. Harry moved his chair closer to Hermione. She excused herself to use the ladies room, Draco's date followed her lead and they went together. Draco and Harry looked at each other and both scowled. Harry looked so happy, that Draco was ticked off. He was here with the women I love and he has no idea. Harry stood from his chair and removed a book from his rear pocket. He set it on the place where Hermione was sitting. Draco grabbed the book and looked at it. He didn't know what to think of it. He put it back and asked Harry, what it was. He said it is a Love Book. It will show Hermione that I love her and that she loves me. Draco almost chocked on his champagne. Harry Freaking Potter thought his date loved him. God, he was so wrong.
Hermione arrived back from the rest room to see Harry and Draco glaring at each other. Draco had a cruel looking smiling on his face and Harry looked like he wanted to kill Draco. Hermione sat down and saw the book on her plate. She smiled and opened it to the 1st page, it had Harry Potter's name on the inside cover but the pictures were of her parents and Draco's. She wondered what was going on. She flipped to the next page and it was of them their 1st year at Hogwarts. Next picture was of the Yule Ball. Harry was moving closer to Hermione and she didn't want him to see the pictures, so she moved the book closer to her cheast. Harry drew himself closer and whispered in her ear, how do like your present. She smiled and Harry and asked him what he meant by that, every girl loved presents Harry moved even closer to her and grabbed her hand. He explained the book to her, it was a priceless item and had taken a long time to find. He told her with a smile, it was a Book of Love. It showed you your one true love. Hermione smiled when she remembered that she had seen Draco and herself, but she frowned when she realized that was not what Harry had intended for her to see. There was no trick to this book, she couldn't change it or her feelings. Hermione sucked in her breath and smiled at Harry.
Harry smiled at her and looked over her shoulder; he was expecting to see his picture. Not the one that he saw. He rage boiled up inside and all he could see was Hermione kissing Draco Malfoy. Draco Freaking Malfoy was Hermione's one true love. Harry Potter couldn't and wouldn't stand for this. Hermione Jean Granger was his and his alone. She may not love him back but he loved her and she owed him. Harry grabbed Hermione's arm and apperated out of the ballroom.
The two of them landed in a field with a soft splat. Hermione was disoriented and didn't know how to handle this. Harry had his wand pointed at Hermione and was muttering something. He shot a spell at Hermione and she fell backward onto the ground again. Harry continued to rage, he was screaming at Hermione. How could you love Draco and not me? I have always been there for you; we have been through so much together. Hermione put her hand on her wand and expected to be caught by Harry. She wasn't and she apperated out of the field back to her apartment. She changed her clothes and went to find Draco. She wanted to know if Harry had hurt Draco. She didn't know what she would do if her best friend killed the man she loved. She hoped she never had to find out.
Harry's rage was uncontrolled and he wanted to kill someone. He couldn't kill Draco because that would hurt Hermione, but the authorities would never know if he killed some random person. Harry Potter went to London and found someone who looked like Draco and strangled the life out of him.
Draco was left at the table in the ballroom with his date. He grabbed the book and saw what Hermione had seen. This was a Love Book. It showed Hermione and Draco kissing in the moonlight. Harry must be furious but he understood. Draco had been angry when Hermione had told her that Harry was accompanying her to the ball. He didn't want anyone to touch his women. He loved her; he had never loved anyone before. He needed to leave here and find her.
Harry was still angry and he thought the murder he had commited would make him feel better, but it didn't.
