A/N: Takes place 1rst year when Harry and Hermione get caught by Filch
after
giving Norbert to Charlie's friends.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They slipped back down the spiral staircase,
their hearts as light as their hands,
now that Norbert was off them. No more dragon -
what could possibly spoil their happiness?
The answer to that was waiting at
the foot of the stairs. As they stepped into the
corridor, Filch's face loomed suddenly out of the darkness.
"Well, well, well," he whispered,
"we are in trouble."
They'd left the invisibility
cloak on the top of the tower.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Filch took Harry and Hermione,
Harry saw that she looked as scared as he felt.
"Here Minivera, I expect you'll know what to do with
these two." Filch said with a nasty sneer.
"Thank you Filch," McGonagall's
nostals flared here lips so thin you could barly see them,
"I'll take them from here now please leave."
Harry Trying to think up a brilliant
idea but till no avail. Until he looked at Hermione,
then it hit him, the perfect story!
"What is going on here!" asked
Proffessor McGonagall "I would have never belived it two
Gryffindors out of bed! Explain yourselves!"
Harry decided that it was now that
he should tell his "story".
" Um professor...we were...we were...well...um...on...on...Oh!
We were on a date to meet
each other at the Astronemy tower..." said Harry sheepishly
trying to catch Hermione's eye,
she had turned scarlet and looked very embarassed indeed.
McGonagall's softened, she had even
a small smile, "well that was quick! Looks like I have
to collect a bet!" "You betted on us!" said Hermione
so suddenly that Harry jumped.It looked
like she was catching on quickly.And to Harry's relife
She didn't look angryily as she stole a glance
at him.
"Well, of course Dumbledore and I,"
McGonagall said,"He thought that you two wouldn't get
together until your fifth year."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Harry and Hermione walked back
to their Dormitory, Hermione had something on her mind
but didn't know how to say it. Finally she just blurted
out "How could you do that! I wanted to tell
you that I loved you first! She said in a sing song voice.
He was relived that she was not angry
with him. He had been taking a big chance. "Well, no
that thats over with...would you like to go on a real
date sometime?" "that would be great!" and she sealed it with a pasionate
kiss on the lips.
