The Meeting





Hermione awoke unusually cheerful, she stretched, got up, and got dressed. After a glass

of orange juice, she apparated to work. When she arrived, she walked to her office, finding the

most beautiful bouqeut of flowers on her desk. She ran to them to see who they were from, she looked at the

card, it read:

"Herm

I know it's been 3 years since we've seen or talked to eachother, but, I've

been thinking about you alot, and I miss you, so, meet me at the Leaky

Cauldron at 8:00 sharp tonight. Owl me back

Harry"

She was breathless, would this be her chance to finally tell Harry how she's felt for

all these years? She quickly grabbed a peice of parchment, and wrote back:



"Harry

Thank you so much for the flowers, the're beautiful! I'll make sure to be at

the Leaky Cauldron tonight, can't wait.

Love, Hermione"



Feeling even better, she gave the letter to one of the company's owls. The rest of the day

went pretty slow for her, probably because of anticipation. At 6:00, she packed up her things and

left. When she got home she tried to figure out what to wear for the occasion, she finally settles

on a black top with a pink shirt. She touched up her make up, brushed her long,now straight,hair,

and left to see her old best friend.

When she arrived, she saw Harry, sitting at their favorite table, the good memories flashed

through her head. She walked toward him, "Hey, Herm, wow, you look great!" he said with a huge smile

on his face. "Not lookin' too bad yourself, Harry""So, can I buy you a butterbeer, its our old favorite"

he said gently. "Thanks" she replied, as they sat down at the table. They talked for hours about

whats been going on in their lives since they left Hogwarts, Hermione got herself into journalism

for the Daily Prophet, and Harry was the Seeker of the English Quidditch Team, and he had brought

them to the Quidditch World Cup 2 years in a row,and Harry told Hermione about how Ron left England

to go to Romania to help Charlie with the dragons."Wow, compared to what you and Ron are doing, my

life seems so to medioker" She said laughing. "Well, tomorrow night there is a Gala, and all the

players have to have a date, so, I'd like for you to go with me. For a night your life wouldn't

be so medioker" as he laughed heartily, i replied "Yes! I'd love to go with you Harry!!" "Great,

tomorrow morning I'm going to take you shopping for a dress, pick anything you want!" She smiled

the biggest smile and thought "God, I am in love with ths man" They talked more and more, about

the great adventures they had a Hogwarts, how much they missed being together all the time and

having the best times at Hogsmeade. And then came her chance to tell him how she had felt from the

first time she saw him, how she thought he was just so perfect in every way, his gorgeous, bright

green eyes, perfect body, sculped from all those years of playing Quidditch. "Hermione, I have

something to tell you" "Wait, I have to tell you something first" she said quickly "ok, shoot.

"Harry, I've, uh, Harry, I...I...I love you, and I have since the first time i saw you" "Herm,I love

you too, this is so amazing, I can't belive it! I was going to wait until after the Gala, but,

I have 2 spare bedrooms in my apartment, and I want you and Ron to move in with me, I've already

sent the onvite to Ron, do you accept?" "Oh my God, Harry, yes! When is Ron getting here?" She

said with utter excitment in her voice. "Well, he has to finish a couple things, and work things

out with Charlie, but he said he was going to be here before the Gala tomorrow, Herm, it's going

to be great!" "I know, Harry, when do I move in?" "The day after tomorrow, all you have to do

is a simple to move all of your things to my apartment" "Aaw! Harry, thank you so much! I love you"

"I love you too."
