Chapter 1: What happens at the Burrow stays at the Burrow..
My name is Hermione Granger and this is the story of my life.
I am currently about to start my 7th year at my school Hogwarts. My best friends and I are all in the same house, Gryffindor. Harry Potter aka The-boy-who-lived and Ron Weasley to be exact. They have been with me since our first year at Hogwarts. I didn't really like them at first but on Halloween night of our first year, they saved me from a troll. That's when things changed between us.
Now I know Ron still thought of me as a know-it-all, but Harry could see me for the real person I was. We have been close ever since. Then in our second year, we had some incidents with a basilisk petrifying people, including me, and I think that was when Ron changed his tune.
Anyways, enough about school. As I sit here alone in my home I share with my parents, I'm trying to get a head start on studying for our NEWT's. I want to try to get a healer's position at St. Mungo's. I know I am supposed to be getting picked up by Ron's parents soon to head to the Burrow, their house.
What I haven't revealed about myself yet is probably the biggest secret of all. I am secretly in love with Harry Potter. I have been since our 3rd year of school. The only thing that I am dreading is seeing him. Only because he is currently seeing Ginny Weasley, Ron's younger sister. They have been together since the end of our 6th year of school. Ron is engaged to Lavender Brown who is also in the same house and year as the rest of us.
I hear my dad calling for me.
"Hermione dear, Ron and Lavender are downstairs for you, are you ready to go?" Dan Granger asked. "Yes, dad I am ready. Tell them I will be down in a moment." I said.
I really am dreading this only because I wish I was the one that Harry was with and not Ginny.
I got my school trunk and gathered my cat Crookshanks and headed down the stairs.
"Hey Hermione! How has your summer been so far?"asked Lavender.
"Just studying for our NEWT's, I always want to be ahead you know." I said with a chuckle.
"Yeah I would think you were sick if not." Ron said. "Well are you ready to go?"
"Yeah I think we can head off. Goodbye mom and dad" I said.
When we finally arrived at the Burrow, I was greeted by the whole Weasley family and Harry. My heart skipped a beat when I seen those emerald eyes of his.
"Hey Hermione, I missed you!" Harry said greeting me with a big hug.
"Hey Harry, I missed you too! How has your summer been?" I said.
"It has been great, I have been spending lots of time with Ginny and practicing Quidditch with Ron. I would assume you have been studying?" said Harry.
"Yeah, always got to be prepared." I said. Just thinking about him spending all his time with Ginny and what they have been doing makes me extremely sick to my stomach.
"I think I need to go lie down, I'm feeling kind of sick to my stomach."I said.
A couple hours later, I awoke to Harry's emerald eyes staring at me. I was kind of startled at first, but then I smiled and said, "Hey Harry, may I ask why you are just sitting here staring at me?" "I was worried about you and wanted to make sure you were ok." Harry responded.
'Wow, is it just me or is he showing me other emotions other than just friendship?' I thought to myself.
"Well that is very nice of you Harry. Is there any place we can go to talk in private?" I asked. "Erm.. Yeah Mrs. Weasley gave me Percy's old room when he moved out so we can go there if you want.." Harry said with a puzzled look on his face. "Ok great. It's just I know Ginny is always around and I just wanted a chance to talk to you alone." I said. "Ok, let's head up there so I can show you where it is for future reference." Harry said.
I followed Harry upstairs to his new room and not surprising it was decorated in numerous Quidditch team memorabilia and Gryffindor things also.
"How do you like it?" Harry asked. "I love it! Totally you Harry." I responded. "So anyways I wanted to talk to you about a couple things. I wanted to know how serious you and Ginny are getting."
"That is kind of weird you asked me that but yes I think we are starting to get serious, we have been together almost six months now." Harry said. The look on my face was very obvious to Harry, I'm sure I looked like I was just hit by a train. "Are you ok 'Mione? Wait… Do you have feelings for me?" "Well, I didn't exactly want it to come out like this but yes I do." I said with an upset tone. "Well, I didn't know you felt that way. How long have you had feelings for me?" Harry asked. "Since 3rd year." I said. Then Harry did something that I would have never expected. He kissed me and boy was it amazing. He is such a great kisser.
"Harry, it's not that I didn't want you to, but why did you kiss me?" I asked. "Well because I have also had feelings for you too, but I never thought you felt the same way." Harry said.
This time I stopped him in the middle of his sentence and kissed him. I didn't expect him to then pick me up and place me on the bed. " Harry.." I started to say and he said "No.. don't talk. Unless you don't want this?" "Of course I do, it's just your with Ginny.." I said. " I know but for some reason this feels so right at this moment." Harry said.
Then he started to remove my shirt and shorts and seen that I was wearing my matching pink lace bra and panty set. "Wow, you look gorgeous 'Mione." he said. Then he proceeded to take his shirt and shorts off also and ended up only in his boxers. 'Oh my, he is so sexy, much more than I imagined.'I thought to myself. Then he took my bra and panties off and also took his boxers off and the next 30 minutes were engraved in history.
