He stepped into the hallway after he'd woken up. His normal routine was to go downstairs for breakfast but his head was telling him otherwise. He had been having these dreams lately, he wanted to see her. He slowly crept to her door. He stood there for a while, his heart was racing. He wrapped his knuckles on the door. It opened immediately, she was standing there silently. They met each other's gaze and held it for a few seconds. It felt like eternity. She let him in. They sat on the bed together. No words were needed. Her brown eyes stared longingly into his green eyes. They'd both been this waiting for this moment all summer. He wanted her warmth. He put his hand on her shoulder, she shuddered with happiness. His other arm wrapped around her waist. He leaned in. they were only an inch apart; they could feel each other breathing heavily and quickly. He closed the gap slowly and their lips touched. A great sensation flowed through his body. He'd been wanting to do that since they had both travelled by Time Turner to save Sirius. Her faint vanilla scent attracted him greatly. They pulled away gently. "I've been waiting a long time for that Hermione," whispered Harry. Her mouth curved upwards into a glistening smile. Her body was perfect in his eyes.

She stood up and went to her dressing table. Harry watched as her hips swayed sideways. He was having trouble keeping his eyes off her. Harry's heart rate finally slowed. He stroked his hand through his messy black hair. "Time for breakfast." Said Hermione. She stood up and went to the door, she turned around and gestured for Harry to follow her.

They entered the dining room together and looked around. Hermione's dad was already sitting there reading the paper. "Good morning," greeted Dan Granger, "you're quite late this morning, Jean has already gone to work." Harry looked at the clock, it was 10am! The teenagers sat down and poured themselves some cereal. "Are you going to work this morning, dad?" Chimed Hermione. Dan looked up from his paper and replied, "In 20 minutes, honey. They didn't need me early."

Hermione's parents were dentists. They were very kind people. They agreed to let Harry stay at their house during the summer after their third year. They could not stand for Harry to be tortured by his uncle, aunt and cousin. When Hermione had asked them if he could stay they agreed immediately.

Hermione went upstairs to get changed. Leaving Dan and Harry alone. Dan leaned across the table to speak to Harry. "Hermione's been acting strange recently," began Dan in a hushed tone, "she's barely been sleeping. She's hardly touched her food and she hasn't even touched her homework!" For Hermione to not do her homework in the first few days of the holidays was a big shock. It was now the second week. "I'll talk to her." Replied Harry coolly. He thanked Dan for the breakfast and strode upstairs.

He entered Hermione's room only to find her sitting at her desk, captivated by her homework. Harry's eyes widened, "So you've started then?" Questioned Harry. Hermione turned around with a bright smile on her face, "Yes, I don't know why but I haven't been able to concentrate till now!" Hermione lied, she knew exactly why she hadn't been able to concentrate. Harry had been on her mind for some time. She longed for him but didn't know if he felt the same way until earlier when they had shared a magical kiss. Her mind had been put at ease.

"Your dad said that you weren't sleeping well, are you okay?" Questioned Harry. She shuffled in her seat. She tried to say something but it didn't come out. Harry walked over to her with a frown on his face. "Hermione?" He carefully placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. Hermione loved his touch, she summoned all of her courage and said, "I was thinking about you. I wasn't sure whether you liked me and I was worried. I've liked you for ages and…" She trailed off. He placed his finger over her lips lovingly and whispered, "I love you Hermione." She stood up and held his gaze. They let a few fleeting moments pass and then he swooped in. Their lips met and they moulded perfectly. He placed his arms on her back and stroked her. Their mouths fused together as they moaned. She felt his hands going lower down her back and she shivered with pleasure. He cupped her buttocks as they stood there tenderly. Harry pulled back and she put her head into his chest. "Does this mean that we are together?" said Harry hopefully. Hermione squealed and nodded. They were both delighted. Harry held her in his arms for what seemed like eternity.

They heard the door close which signalled that Dan had gone and they were finally left alone.
