Chapter 1
It was time for Harry and Dumbledore's weekly meeting. Harry briskly walked to the gargoyles that separated him from the headmaster.
"Yellow Snot!" Harry exclaimed to the lifeless looking gargoyles that suddenly sprang to life.
He climbed the spiral staircase where he found Dumbledore sending off an owl.
"Why, hello Harry." Dumbledore exclaimed with that twinkle in his eye.
"Wassup Professor D?!" Harry replied.
"Just Chillin'HP"
Dumbledore then stared into Harry's eyes and Harry felt as though the older man could see into the inner depths of his soul. Harry cleared his throat and darted his eyes away.
"So Harry, how's Hermione going?" Dumbledore asked.
Harry could swear he heard a hint of jealousy in the tone of his voice.
"Not so well" Harry whispered.
"She just doesn't… Understand me." He continued as he looked down.
Dumbledore walked towards him and lifted his chin up so that he was staring into Harry's emerald green eyes.
"I understand you." He whispered against Harry's moist red lips.
Harry lifted his hand to stroke the old mans long white beard, and then rested his hand on Dumbledore's wrinkly cheek.
"I know you do." He said as he stared into Dumbledore's twinkling blue eyes. He continued to stroke Dumbledore's cheek but then suddenly walked towards the door and turned around.
He looked at Dumbledore and whispered, "But I can't do this just yet, I need to give Hermione a chance."
With that he left, Dumbledore then sat down, and sobbed into his hands.
