An Embarrassing Evening
Sunset was on its way, for the rosy sun shifted its place and was now going down the earth. Just then Harry popped out of nowhere behind the bush of The Burrow. He ran to Ron's room directly because there was no one in sight in the kitchen. Ron's room was empty as well. The ghoul was making much disturbance so he went to Ginny's room to experience some blissful moments and dispel his boredom.
Ginny's room was much darker than Ron's. A silhouette of a tall female figure could only be seen. Harry thought it was Ginny and ran to hug her from the back. Harry noticed the different but familiar smell of hair. He didn't care and started kissing her from her neck to the lips. That girl kissed her back. Both of them perceived that the touches were different. Of course it was different because it was none other than one and only HERMIONE GRANGER. Harry wasn't still aware of that yet.
Hermione, on the other hand, thought it was Ron, who liked greeting her this way. Hermione thought. He can't be so short, shorter than me? Who cares, for he is the only owner of my touch. Neither Harry nor Hermione was conscious that what they were doing, for both of them were on bed by now.
"I love you." exclaimed Harry.
"I love you too." replied Hermione, whose head was now hidden under Harry's head and both of her hands were tightly around his back.
Just then they heard a crack in the kitchen. Both of them jumped off the bed and found their shirts open, though the trousers were in the correct place. Hermione rummaged the bed for her shirt and found it under Harry's pillow. She put it on quickly and saw Harry's glasses. Harry, who was already done wearing his shirt, observed Hermione's bushy hair.
"H-E-R-M-I-O-N-E? It was you?" snapped Harry.
"Harry? I thought it was Ron!" yelled Hermione.
"I thought of you being Ginny!" said Harry in an unpleasant tone. "Where are the Weasleys?"
"I don't know! None of the Weasleys are present." responded Hermione.
Both of them gazed at each other and slumped at the either side of bed with their backs facing each other, realizing for the first time what they were doing.
"Merlin's Beard! Harry, what were we doing?" retorted Hermione.
"Thank God! We didn't proceed further; besides, I didn't see any part of your chest, for I was only busy kissi…"
Before Harry could finish his sentence, Ron and Ginny entered the room together. Harry and Hermione bounced off the bed at their presence.
"What a pleasant surprise!" said Ron in a surprising tone and ran to hug Hermione. Ginny followed her brother and went to hug Harry.
"Mum, Harry and Hermione are here!" shouted Ginny.
"We went to Diagon Alley to buy new dress robes for ourselves." added Ron.
Just then Harry and Hermione started laughing together. Ginny and Ron looked completely bewildered.
"What happened?" asked Ginny.
"Nothing… Just remembered an embarrassing encounter with a friend!" replied Hermione with a smirk.
"Same here!" added Harry.
After a minute of awkward silence, all of them left Ginny's room and went down to the Kitchen to meet the other Weasleys.
