Pairing:HG/HP

Hermione Granger slid lower into the bubble-filled tub at Number 12. The smell of sage tickled her nostrils. She sighed softly into the bubbles. Hermione was thankful for little quiet moments like this.

Taking a deep breath and closing her eyes, she dropped the top-half of her body into the warm water.

Harry Potter raced upstairs to the washroom. Knocking quickly, he pressed his ear to the door. Silence. Gripping the doorknob, Harry pushed the door open and stepped inside. He noticed the tub was full of wonderfully smelling fragrance. 'Maybe Hermione taking a bath before dinner.' Harry thought. Turning to the sink, he stuck his hand under the running water and began washing his hands for dinner.

Coming up for air, Hermione spit out some water and wiped her wet, soapy curls out of her eyes. She noticed someone standing at the sink, with his back turned.

"HARRY" Hermione cried

Harry spun around to face the tub.

"HERMIONE" he bellowed. His gaze dropped from her eyes to her supple breasts, which were covered with foamy water. "I'm sorry. Sorry." His face was burning uncontrollably.

Slapping her arms over her naked breasts, she shirked "Don't you know how to knock?"

Tearing his eyes away from her wet body, Harry stared down at the floor. "I d..did knock. You didn't answer"

Hermione growled. "Get out, Harry" She splashed him with her bathwater. Harry dodged the water and stumbled out the door.

"Close the bloody door" Hermione shouted. Seconds later, the door magically shut.

Harry threw himself into the kitchen and into a chair opposite of his godfather, Sirius Black.

"Where is the fire, Harry?" Remus Lupin turned away from the stove, where he was preparing dinner.

"Sorry. Just excited I guess" he lied.

Sirius chuckled to himself. "Harry, you lie as well as your father did. Abysmal."

The red in Harry's face returned. "I..um.."

"What were you and the lovely Hermione yelling about?" Moony asked, placing a pot of stew on the table. He sat towards the end of the table.

"I..um accidentally walked in on her while she was in the bathtub."

Sirius and Remus began to chuckle.

"It's not funny. I knocked but she didn't hear me. So, I went in. And I saw her.."

"You saw what?" Sirius smiled widely.

"Sirius!" Lupin reprimanded his old friend. Sirius offered an apology

"I saw her" Harry firmly stated, digging into the stew.

Hermione then bounded into the kitchen and took her usual seat. She quickly glanced at Harry, who looked away from her.

"Good evening Hermione" Remus greeted his former student.

"Evening Remus" She helped herself to hot, steamy stew.

"Evening, 'Mione" Sirius welcomed her

"Hello, Sirius" Hermione spooned a helping of stew into her mouth.

"Do you have a nice bath?" Sirius asked, trying to hide his smile.

"It was…" Hermione caught the twinkle in his eye. "Wait.." Dropping her spoon into her bowl, she twisted her head towards Harry. "You told them, didn't you?"

Before Harry had time to answer, She jumped up from her chair and stomped out of the room; leaving her dinner sitting on the table.

"Thanks, guys" Harry grumbled.
