*I do not own ANY of the rights to Harry Potter
Study. That was my agenda for the day, one must be prepared at all costs, even during winter vacation. But when I heard that they were bringing the students who were staying at Hogwarts for Christmas to Hogsmeade, I knew that I would probably be dragged to that pretty little village.
"Hermione, you have to stop studying, it'll fry your brain." Ron said as he was leaving for the train station, The Weasley clan were going to visit Bill in Egypt and Ron wanted the chance to ride a camel so he left Harry and I alone all holiday.
As soon as Ron had left the castle, Harry bound downstairs in a parka, "Hermione, it's almost Christmas. Won't you go with me to Hogsmeade?" He asked sweetly, looking at all of my study tools.
He's just so cute sometimes, I swear.
We were soon sitting in The Hog's Head, sipping butterbeer. "Hermione, is there any way you could possibly get my hair to act as it should?" Harry asked, trying to flatten the hair that always stood up.
"I think you should leave it, it makes you look sort of... Rugged and handsome." I responded, his hair is perfect.
Harry blushed a deep crimson, "Rugged?" He grinned. "Oh come on, you know what I mean." We both shared a laugh and then the world started to slow.
His eyes are the most brilliant color I have ever seen. No wonder Cho clings on him so much.
"I assume you and Cho are going to meet and exchange presents Christmas Day?" I said casually. "No, Cho has lost interest." He responded, looking into his golden drink.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know." That was all I could say without showing that I was ecstatic.
"No, it's fine. I actually really like someone else." He sighed, leaning back in the wooden chair and staring at my bushy hair.
My heart was playing a game of quidditch. "R-really? Who?" I inquired, hoping, praying he would say my name.
"No, it's dumb." He smiled, avoiding eye contact.
"Harry, tell me." I leaned over the table, trying to meet his eyes. "No one." He stood up and slammed six sickles onto the table, storming outside.
"Harry wait!" I followed him into the snow. "Hermione, I need to be alone right now." His eyes looked anxious.
"You can tell me, we're best friends. I don't get what-" His lips were suddenly pressed against mine in a clumsy kiss.
