AN: hey this is a songfic, I've had the song stuck in my head for a while and I had to give in…
Harry watched what he considered to be the most wonderful person in his life, Hermione laughing with his other best friend Ron, and couldn't help but feel a spark of jealousy. HE had always been there for her! Ron left when they were searching for horcruxes, and yet she ran to Ron after he had defeated the dark lord! What was wrong with the world?
Beauty queen of only 18
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
But she always belonged to someone else
Yeah, Hermione sure was beautiful, but she was Ron's girl, she probably always would be, even though he was the one who had always been with her until the very end!
I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times
But somehow I want more
He had gone to her house yesterday, because even though he had been with her all through the past year, he couldn't resist her luscious curls, her sparkling laugh…
I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
Hermione was hit hard by the losses of the war, and he often went over to her house to comfort her. They'd go to her house and have tea, he sometimes had to wait in the rain for her to come and let him in, but he didn't mind, he'd do anything for his Hermione. He knew the brave cheerful face she put on for others was a mask, but she'd be herself with him, not that idiot Ron.
And she will be loved, and she will be loved
He'd always love her, even if she chose Ron over him, he could never leave her, or move on. She was his only.
Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore
Sometimes he'd get insecure, feel like he caused all the deaths in the war, but she'd remind him of the fact that it wasn't his fault, not at all, and he'd try to make her feel beautiful.
It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want
If Hermione ever came around to him, his door would always be open for her, always…
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
He didn't mind troubles Hermione gave him. He didn't care. He loved her. He always would.
I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls
He knew where she hid when she was sad, or angry. He knew everything about her. He'd catch her every time she fell.
I don't mind spending everyday Try so hard to say goodbye
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
He had to leave behind his feelings for her, he couldn't let them overwhelm him, she would never be his.
I looked back at Hermione from across the room, and was shocked at what I saw. No more happy cheerful face of minutes before, her face was covered in tear streaks, Ron was gone.
I walked over to her and rubbed her back until the tears finally stopped, and she managed to choke out 2 words.
"Broke u-up"
I silently swore to murder Ron Weasley the next time I saw him. I realized this was the time to tell her my feelings, so I leaned over and whispered
"Ron Weasley is going to die"
And then softer
"But I'm kind of glad you broke up, because I'm in love with you, Hermione, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
And the next thing I knew were her lips crashed against mine.
