Full Summary: Tell Me of the Fall You Once Knew

After Harry defeated Voldermort and graduated Hogwarts, he had to get away from it all. He wanted a fresh start, to go where no one knew him. Then one day, he was gone. He had left everyone and everything he ever knew behind. Years later, Harry has a new life and a new love. It all seemed perfect… maybe too perfect. After Harry runs into someone from his past, he's faced with a choice that could change his life… forever. Rated R just to be on the safe side. It's also a HHr fic.

Chapter 1: Dream or Flashback?

Harry was sitting by the lake on the Hog warts grounds. He was gazing across the lake when a single tear rolled down his face. Hermione walked up behind him and sat next to him.

"Harry, what's wrong?" asked Hermione, worried.

"Nothing Mione, nothing." Harry said as he put his arm around her neck. She rested the side of her face on his chest.

"The, why are you crying?"

"Because, I've just been thinking of things. You know, it's just not the same."

"What's not the same?"

"Not having to worry about Voldermort. I can't believe I beat him. It just doesn't seem real."

Hermione raised up so that she could see his eyes.

"Harry, it's out 7th year, our last year. Let's just enjoy it, okay? The past is the past. It's time to look to the future."

Just then the autumn breeze began to blow and the leaves began to move around.

"It's a beautiful day, isn't it?" Hermione asked.

"It's as beautiful as you are, love." Said Harry as he put his arm back around Hermione's neck and smiled.

Harry woke up in a cold sweat. He looked around dazed and confused. He looked around to make sure he was still in his home in London. He wanted to make sure he was as far away as possible from his past.

"Harry, are you okay?" asked a young woman who sounded like Hermione only with an American accent. She looked a little like Hermione too. Harry turned around quickly to facer her and was relieved to see who it was.

"Oh, Jennifer, you scared me. Yeah, I'm fine, I just had a bad dream is all."

"Okay honey. Well, lunch is in the kitchen and I'm headed off to the clothing store. I start my new job there today."

"Okay, well, I'll see you later then. Tonight's our 2 year anniversary. Can you believe we've been dating 2 years already? It seems like yesterday we met."

"I know what you mean. Well, I got to go or I'll be late. I'll see you at 6 o'clock. Love you." Jennifer said as she gave Harry a kiss.

"Love you too Jen." said Harry as she left. Soon he was in the kitchen eating the lunch Jennifer had made for him. Harry was feeling ill that day so he took the day off and slept all day. That and tonight was his 2 year anniversary with Jennifer. He went back to bed after he had finished his lunch. In his dreams, he picked up where he left off with his earlier dream.

"Harry, you know why fall is my favorite season?" asked Hermione with her head in his lap and looking at the clouds.

"Why?" Harry asked as he looked up at the clouds.

"Because it so peaceful and beautiful. It's like no matter what you did in all the other seasons doesn't matter because you can change into the person you want to be. It's almost poetic."

"It is. You know, the reason I love autumn so much is because it's when I realized I was in love with you." Said Harry as he gave Hermione a kiss.

"Same here." Hermione said as she smiled up at Harry. "Harry, do you think we'll be together forever?" she asked.

"I hope so, otherwise al of this will be for nothing." Harry said he smiled down at Hermione.

"I love you." Said Hermione.

"I'll always love you, Mione." said Harry.

For the second time that day, Harry woke up in a cold sweat. He looked at the clock which read 5:30 p.m.

"Shit" yelled Harry as he jumped out of bed to get a quick shower. He got out of the shower and put on a real nice suit. He took a small box out of his sock drawer and put it into his pocket and headed off to the restaurant he was meeting Jennifer at. He found their table where Jennifer was already sitting.

"Hey beautiful." Harry said, giving Jennifer a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey sexy." Said Jennifer. They ordered their meal and ate. They had finished when Harry reached into his pocket for the box. He slid it across the table for her to open. She gasped at the beautiful diamond ring in the box.

"Marry me?" asked Harry, getting down on one knee.

"Oh Harry, yes." She said in one breath. Harry slid the ring on her finger and gave her a kiss. Everyone in the restaurant started clapping. After they paid for their dinner, they went for a walk.

"Harry, have you ever loved someone?" asked Jennifer from no where.

"Wh-What?" asked Harry, thrown off guard.

"Have you ever loved some other girl before me?"

"Yes, when I was a teenager."

"Did you lover her a lot?"

"She was my best friend. She was one of my only friends."

"But did you love her a lot?"

"Yes, very much so, but I love you now, and that's all that matters." Said Harry as he kissed her.

"Good." Said Jennifer as they reached the door of her apartment. "Well, tonight was amazing Harry, you're the best. I still can't believe I'm engaged."

"Believe it! Well, I'll see you tomorrow then. Good night."

"Good night Harry." Said Jennifer as they kissed and she went in. Harry started walking to his place and was thinking about his dreams he had had. They were flashbacks of his 7th year. Harry was so deep in thought that he wasn't paying attention to where he was going and ran into a women about the same age as him.

"Oh, I'm very sorry." Said Harry before he realized who he was talking to. Her head was down so she couldn't see Harry at all.

"Mione?" Harry asked, amazed.

"Harry?" She asked him.
