Why Fate Chose This Path...

A Harry and Hermione Love Story

Author's Note: OK, guys I know this is my first story of this series, I hope you guys enjoy this one and please don't flame on this coupling or anything else I decided to include in this story, it's only fan fiction and if you don't support this couple, than why are you reading this? ( I know, how the story ends and I know they don't end up together, honestly I like Harry/Hermione but I think I understand why JK Rowling put Ron/Hermione together and Harry/Ginny together. Harry and Hermione love each other like brother and sister in the books but have so much chemistry in the movies, so that is why I ship Harry/Hermione. I also ship Dan/Emma, have you guys seen the way they act around each other?

Alright, well please enjoy the story!:)

"I'm going to do it, I'm going to tell Hermione that I'm in love with her."Harry thought as was staring into space in Snape's boring potion's class.

"Mr. Potter, since you're not paying attention today, how about you tell us how to make a love potion?" Snape asked Harry.

"Oh! Um..."

The school bell rang. Everyone was dismissed and luckily Harry didn't have to answer Snape's question. Ron, Harry, and Hermione caught up with each other and headed to the Great Hall to eat lunch.

"Hermione, you know Snape's vampire essay due tomorrow? Well...I was wondering if you could do it for me?" Ron asked Hermione innocently.

"Ronald Weasly! No! I am not going to do your homework again, you should learn how to do your own homework, you know like Harry does. GOD! Why can't you be more like Harry?!" Hermione replied annoyed.

Ron rolled his eyes. Harry blushed when Hermione said his name. The golden trio entered the Great Hall where they spotted Neville and Luna making out and Ginny sitting alone eating.

"Hey Gins." Ron said to his sister.

Ginny waved. "Hi Harry!" She said.

"Hi Ginny."Harry replied.

" Listen, I was wondering if you wanted to go to Hogsmade with only me today later, I was thinking we could go to the candy shop and grab a bite to eat or something." She asked Harry.

Harry looked at Hermione who was looking down at her food, then looked over at Ron who was giving Harry a questioning look.

"Um...well I'm really busy today Ginny with homework and such and going to Hogsmade just really isn't in my plans today." Harry said looking down as he rejected her request.

"Oh, um OK, than no problem."

Harry nodded.

"So...Harry do you want to study for the test tomorrow?" Hermione asked Harry hopefully.

"Sure, Hermione but didn't you start studying 2 weeks ago?" Harry asked.

"Uh. You know me, I always study just to make sure."

"Right, I understand. I'll meet up with you later in the common room."

Ginny gave Hermione a jealous look, but Hermione didn't notice it, but Harry did.

"Uhhh...c'mon Ron let's get to the library and finish the vampire essay." Harry said.

"Sure." Ron said and followed Harry.

"Wait! I have to go meet Dean in the divination, to tutor him, so I'll just go with you guys." Hermione said.

And, so the trio went to the library and divination's class leaving Ginny by herself.

After Hermione got done tutoring Dean, she went back to Griffyonder common room, while Harry and Ron were still at the library.

" So mate, when are you going to tell Hermione? You've been putting it off for weeks." Ron asked anxiously.

" All in good time Ron, all in good time, but for sure today probably." Harry replied.

" I can't believe Ginny may like you."

" I know, I like her as a friend but definitely not as my girlfriend. I like Hermione."

" I can tell, and I can't really picture you two together, I mean c'mon Ginny?"

" Exactly! I hope me and her can still remain friends though."

Ron nodded. Little did they know that Ginny happened to be in the library too, searching for books and heard the whole conversation between Harry and Ron.

Ginny stormed off and ran to the common room.

"Hey Ginny." Hermione said to Ginny as she entered the room.

"YOU! You half-wit, evil, conniving little witch!" Ginny screamed. Hermione just stared at her looking very confused.

" You just can't stand the fact than, when a guy likes me, you just have to steal him from me before anything even starts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You just can't except the fact that Harry liked me first and now he doesn't because you came Into the picture!!!!! I HATE YOU! And, you better not hook up with him either!" She finished off and stormed to her dormitories.

" Fine! You make your stupid little dramatic exit! I don't care! And Harry was my friend before you so you can just walk off the earth!!!" Hermione screamed back to Ginny.

An hour has passed and Harry and Ron came into the common room.

"Hermione?" Ron asked as he was staring at a very emotionless Hermione.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just a bit of drama is all. No worries, I'm hungry, let's go to the great hall and catch some food." She replied.

Harry and Ron nodded and they all headed down to the Great Hall.

It was a very quiet dinner and even they didn't talk,

After dinner, Ron had to leave and meet up with Cho, his girlfriend, leaving Harry and Hermione alone together in the common room again.

" So...we better get studying." Harry said to Hermione.

" Harry, I have to ask you something important." Hermione asked Harry instantly.

" Yeah, sure what is it?"

" Earlier today, Ginny came screaming to me about how I stole her from you and that you're in love with me and everything.

" Oh crap. She's on to me."Harry thought.

" Oh, um yes what can I do about that?" Harry said.

"So...I was wondering if you liked me or something?"

"Um...well not how I was expecting to tell you but yes it's true I like you a lot. Even though, you're my best friend, I just can't help it."

Hermione gasped and got up to walk away leaving a very confused and hurt Harry.

Major cliffhanger! So what's gonna happen next? Does Hermione like Harry back? Will Ginny ever forgive Hermione? And will Harry forgive Hermione for walking away like that?
