Harry was waiting for Hermione near Hogwarts. He wanted to talk to her alone. He began to worry because Hermione was late. Suddenly, he saw Hermione. She was running and stopped to run only when she was near Harry.

Hermione : I am sory to be late. I had to talk to professor McGonagall.

Harry : That's alright! Hermione...I wanted to walk alone with you because I have something to ask you.

Hermione : What do you want to ask me?

Harry : I would like to know why you kissed me before we left Hogwart last year?

Hermione's face turned red.

Hermione: I have been thinking about it all the summer and I discovered the reason why I kissed you.

Harry: So why did you kiss me?

Hermione: Well... It's not easy to say!

Harry : You can tell me everything.

Hermione : Harry,... I think that you mean more than a friend to me.

Harry looked very surprised.

Harry: What do you mean?

Hermione: Harry...I love you!

Harry: Well, you know what? I love you too.

Hermione : What? Are you sure that you love me?

Harry : Yes, I'm sure that I love you. You mean the world to me, Hermione.

Hermione : I must be dreaming... This can't be true.

Harry : You are not dreaming. I truly love you. In fact, I adore you.

Harry gave a passionate kiss to Hermione to proove to her that what he said was true. They entered in the castle hand in hand.

Ten minutes later, Harry and Hermione were in the common room. It was soon in the morning, so everybody were sleeping. Harry and Hermione sat on two chairs and Harry began the conversation.

Harry: I'm so happy! I thought the kiss you gave me last summer was only a friendship kiss. I was affraid that you didn't love me.

Hermione: I was also scared! I thought I was just a friend for you! When did you realized that you loved me?

Harry : I realized it a few weeks after I came home last summer. I was always thinking about you and you became more and more important to me each day.

Hermione: It's also what happened to me. I thought that I was only a friend for you.

Harry: Wait a minute. What about Victor Krum? I thought you were seeing him...

Hermione: I was always thinking about you so I broke up with him. Anyway, I think he now has another girlfriend. Also, I wanted to tell you that I didn't sleep with him.

Harry : I'm happy for him. He is a nice guy. He deserves to be happy.

Hermione : Yes, he deserves to be happy. By the way, I wanted to tell you that I didn't sleep with him.

Harry: Don't worry, I believe you Hermione.

Hermione looked at Harry. At that moment, anybody could see just by looking at her that she loved Harry.

Hermione: I love you so much Harry!

Harry: I love you too, Hermione. You are so precious to me!

They hugged . Suddenly, Harry thought about something. Last year, during a short moment, he thought that Ron could have feelings for Hermione. Harry looked in Hermione's eyes and said:

Harry: Wait! We can't be together!

Hermione looked at Harry and saw that he looked sad. She began to feel worried

Hermione : Why do you say that?

Harry : I think that Ron has feelings for you.

Hermione started to laugh.
