AN: This is my first "real" fic, so be nice. I really don't have a preference in couples (I love all romance), but this one is an H/H
I would like to thank my big sis' friend College Girl for helping me out with this. (She is a great author-if any of you like R/H and G/H, please read her works). Anyways, thanks C.G. for showing me how to upload and everything.
Destined
They didn't know it at the time, but on that fateful day in September. The day Harry Potter joined the wizarding world, was also the day he met his destiny. Her name was Hermione Granger.
He didn't know about this destiny, but it was written in the stars. This was the prediction Sybil Trelawny made several years ago.
It was while Harry's parents, Lily and James were still in school that this prediction was made, right while James himself was in class.
The dark wizard is rising. There is only one way to defeat him. One boy, one girl. They must confess their true love toward one another in front of him during the final battle. The boy has emerald green eyes, and disheveled black hair. The girl has chocolate brown eyes and bushy hair, she is muggle born.
They thought that day, when Voldemort had supposedly died, James and Lily were that special couple. "Sybil simply got some things mixed around in her prediction." Everyone said. "The girl had the green eyes, instead of the boy." They brought their only child, Harry, to his only living relatives.
Throughout his last four years at Hogwarts, Harry fought the newly risen Voldemort alongside his best friends, Hermione, and Ron Weasley. The last year was the worst. He killed so many; Neville Longbottom, Collen Creevy, and lastly Ron's little sister Ginny. Poor Ron was devastated, and out of protest he ran off with Lavender Brown. Harry got a few post cards from them every now and again, but Ron refused to let them know where he was hiding.
So it was up to him and Hermione. They seeked Voldemort out, and prepared for an all-out war. Harry and Hermione managed to kill most of the death eaters, but that wasn't enough to stop Voldemort from capturing Hermione.
Harry watched helpless as Voldemort slowly took the life out of Hermione. Her last words as she was dying was, "Harry, I love you." "I love you too Hermione, too bad we didn't know until it was too late." he said, rushing up to kiss her before she died.
With that one little kiss, Voldemort was destroyed. Harry was able to hold Hemrione's head in his lap as she breathed her last breaths.
After it was all over, Harry never forgot Hermione. He did marry Cho Chang, another Hogwarts student, but Harry confessed to her that he would never be able to love her as much as he loved Hermione. They had one daughter, named Hermione after Harry's lost love. He later learned that Ron and Lavender had a son of the same age.
The children went to Hogwarts together, and eventually fell in love. They were married, causing Ron and Harry to reunite. Harry was glad to find his long lost friend. But, it was never the same. Ron seemed to have lost his personality after Ginny and Hermione died. It was no more fun and jokes, like they used to share.
Perhaps the only thing that kept his sanity was the thought that one-day he would again be with his true love Hermione Granger.
AN: I was trying to go for sad and depressing, did I manage?? And thanks again college girl, you are like my second big sister. You guys have got to read her fics.
