Out of the Life of Hermione Granger

CHAPTER I

They were both alone. There was nobody else and it was just the two of them, holding eachother in the empty, grassy, rolling English countryside. Nobody was there to bother them and that's just how they wanted it. Finally, after what felt like an eternity of waiting, the tall and handsome redhead slowly moved inward to kiss her. She was staring into his gorgeous blue eyes, anticipating her long awaited wish to come true. He was so close. He shut his eyes. She could feel his warm, loving breath on her cheek. She closed her eyes and moved her head up into his for the anticipated lip-lock. And then...-"Hermione! Wake up!"

Hermione Granger opened her eyes to see a familiar red headed girl with an impatient look on her face. "Ginny! I was having the most wonderful dream," said Hermione, sitting up in the bed. "About my brother again, right?" Ginny chuckled. "No! I told you I didn't like him like that!" But the truth was, she did. She had been in love with Ron ever since the end of first year when he dropped his stubborn attitude and sacrificed himself so Harry could move forward to stop Lord Voldemort from getting the Sorcerer's Stone. She had loved him even when he accused her cat, Crookshanks, of eating Scabbers. She just thought he was cute when he was angry. She loved him so much but didn't know how to show it at all. She didn't know How to show that tall, blue-eyed, gorgeous redhead that she absolutely loved him and would give anything to be with him for just one day. One day of him holding her, kissing her, calling her name. "Hermione... Hermione... HERMIONE!!"

"What?" She responded to a very confused looking Ginny. "Hermione, are you ok?" she said sounding worried. "Just fine. Let's go eat." Today is the day, she said to herself just like she had been doing for the past two weeks.

Harry and Hermione had been staying at the Burrow for the last two weeks of Summer vacation before their final year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Ron and Harry were sitting at the table talking when Hermione and Ginny came bouncing down the steps in time to hear Harry ask Ron, "So, will you ask her today, mate?" Ron was about to respond before he noticed that the two girls had just sat down and were pouring themselves each a modest bowl of cereal. "Ask who what, Ron?" asked Ginny, giving Hermione a sly smile. "Nothing," mumbled Ron, looking down into his empty bowl to hide his reddening face (although his ears were blood red and clearly visible). "Hermione, maybe you know?" she said, still wearing her sly smile. Hermione, too, tried to hide her face in her bowl after mumbling something that couldn't be understood. After what seemed like an eternity of waiting (to them, anyway) Mrs. Weasley called out, "C'mon everyone! You don't want to miss the Hogwarts Express, do you?" saving both Hermione and Ron from an awkward situation. Once Harry and Ron got up and left the kitchen, Hermione darted Ginny a peeved look. "What the hell was that!?" she whispered angrily. Ginny grinned and then giggled. "Just felt like having some fun. Now let's go, we'll be late."
