Why can't it ever be me?
Ok peoples, this is my first HP knock off story, so be gentle with the
reviews please. You will probably think this is corny or just dumb,
but
what the hey I gonna write it anyway!
~~~~ **** ~~~~ **** ~~~~
Harry loved going back to school. His favorite day of the year
was
probably the day he left in the Dursley's tiny car for Kings Cross. He
jumped out of the car the moment uncle vernon pulled up to the
sidewalk. He
couldn't wait to see Ron again. He especially couldn't wait to see
Hermione. Over the summer they had writen back and fourth quite a lot,
and
Harry had fallen in love with her words and he knew that when he saw
her
again, he would inevidably fall in love with the person behind the
words as
well.
When Harry walked though platform nine and three quarters Ron was
waiting for him near a compartment door. " Hi," said Harry, " Where's
Hermione?" "Oh she loaded up her trunk a while ago and ran off
somewhere.
She really looks beautiful today." he said in a light and airy tone.
Oh no
harry thought to himself this can't be happening "You don't...." Harry
began
staring at Ron in disbelief; " I don't what?" "Oh, you like her don't
you,
I knew it just my luck!" "What do you mean harry?" Ron said very
confused
at this point. "Oh nothing....." said harry in a very distant
voice,for at
that moment Hermione was rushing towards them. "Hi Ron," she said
quickly.
She turned to Harry and gave him a huge hug, "Oh Harry, I've been so
worried
about you! After the way the Dursleys treated you last summer, I
didn't
know what to do! I'm just so glad your ok!" Harry was taken aback, but
only
for a moment, soon he regained his state of mind and realized that
Hermione
was in his arms at that very moment, and didn't seem to want to let go.
When she did however, Harry saw Rons face and wished he could have
swiched
places with Ron so that he could have gotten the hug instead.
Ron didn't say anything about it, though he didn't talk to Harry
as
much as usual, he couldn't stay away from Hermione. They talked almost
the
whole way to Hogwarts, with Harry only getting in the occational word
or
two. But Harry didn't mind this, just looking at Hermione, being able
to
see her and hear her voice was enough for him, even if her bright brown
eyes
were not staring into his, and her soothing voice was not talking to
him. He
listened to the words that poured from her lips, the same kind of words
that
had gotten him though the summer with the Dursleys and he wanted to
hold her
more than ever before, he wanted to talk to her and just pour out his
heart
and soul to her, but most of all he wanted to kiss her, touch his lips
to
her soft pink ones. Ron had been right in saying she looked beautiful
that
day, she really did, more beautiful than ever before, more grown up
too.
By the time the snack cart came around not even chocolate frogs
and
pumkin juice could tear Harry and Rons attention away from Hermione,
well at
least not until...." Oh good the snack cart, I'm absoulutly famished!"
at
this both boys jumped up to buy her as many culdron cakes and betty
botts
every falvored beans she wanted. Hermione blushed feriously, and
stared
from Ron to Harry not able to say a word. Soon the lady selling the
snacks
became irritated, so the boys both bought a handful of treats and set
them
down before Hermione.
They all shared the snacks, and soon Harry and Ron had fallen
asleep.
Harry was shoken awake by to his surprise Hermione! "Come on." she
said
urgently tugging at his sleeve as he stuggled to follow her out of
their
compartment. They passed through at least a dozen compartments before
the
finally found and empty one, when they reached it Hermione let out a
sigh of
relief, shut the door tight and sat down next to Harry. "Harry" she
began
slowly "I can tell what's going on here, with you and Ron I mean."
Harry
went completly red almost instantly, as did Hermione. "You do?" he said
cautiosly. "Yes, you both have been a bit obvious, no offence of
course..."
"Hermione I-"he began, but it was not use. "Wait harry. Stop me if
I am
wrong, but you both seem to have somewhat strong feelings for me, and
that
puts me in a rather awkward situation." There she went again Harry
thought
puting things so simply as to not embarrass him, he loved how causious
she
was about peoples emotions. "Well, I have made a decision, and as hard
as
it may be, I've got to follow my heart." At that point he knew he'd
lost
her, forever if not longer. "And Harry, my heart tells me well..." She
leaned in slowly and kissed Harry on the lips, it was a long slow kiss.
Harry put his arms around her and did not want to let go, he did not
want to
let her lips leave his, he wanted the sweetness of this kiss to last
forever. But it had to end, Harry opened his eyes hardly daring to
believe
what had just happened, and then he saw it.
Ron was standing in the middle of the doorway! He looked as though
someone had just drivin a stake though his heart. Hermione saw him
too.
"Ron please let me explain!" she dashed towards him. He stood there
and
stared at her with tears streaming down his cheeks, he still could not
take
his eyes off of her, even though he knew she did not return his
feelings.
"Ron I - I love you, I really do- but only as a friend, and please
don't be
mad, I-I love Harry too, but in a different way-and I just can't hide
my
feelings-In my heart, the last thing I want to do is hurt you- but-but-
I
just can't lose him, I love him, can you ever forgive us for following
our
hearts?" Ron looked from Harry to Hermione, and finally said, "Yes, I
can,
but I must follow mine as well." And with that he grabbed Hermione and
gave
her a long kiss on the lips, "Can you honestly tell me," he said "that
you
felt no passion for me in that kiss?" Hermione now on her knees looked
up at
him, tears pouring like rivers from her lovely eyes and said "yes," in
a
barly audible whisper. But at that Ron said "well then there is
nothing
more I can do, but wish you luck," with one last look at her he turned
and
left the compartment, trying hard as he might not to slam the door when
he
saw her rush to Harry with love, and seeing him hold her close as he
longed
to do. Why can't it ever be me? he thought to himself Why can't it
ever be
me?

Ok, OK I can guess what your thinking.... "My goodness that was
sooooo
cheesey." Well I gave it a try. And just in case my guess isn't right
on the
dot, please R/R this and tell me exactly what you think, even if it's
"That
stunk like yesterdays garbage!" (sorry if I stole your idea) Anyway
thanks
for reading it, hope you enjoyed it.
