This is the Second Part. This is in Harry's P.O.V so it will be different.
Title: What Have You Done Now
Author: BlackDemonAngel
Chapter 2: Ever After?
I always knew what I did behind Hermione's back was wrong but I just couldn't help myself. I mean the first time it happened I finally understood the privileges that came with being The-Boy-Who-Lived. I always knew I would get caught but made even more exciting. I don't know maybe I wanted to prove I could do something like that. The first time I decided to proceed further than just a kiss, she catches me. That's just my luck then again, I wasn't suppose to be doing it in the first place.
I've been waiting for someone like you
But now you are slipping away
(What have you done now?)
I have always liked Hermione; she was always my best friend and she never abandoned me. She has proven herself not just last year but every year since I have met her. And then I repay her with me cheating on her, can you say STUPID. Maybe if I hadn't cheated on her then maybe I wouldn't have given her a reason to hurt me back. Is this the way she had felt when she caught me? Rage is all I have been feeling since I saw her with him.
Why? Why does fate make us suffer?
There's a curse between us
Between me and you
She suffered and now I suffered it a cycle that started with me. At first when she caught me I didn't think she would react the way I did… but that was the problem I wasn't thinking at all. I mean now that I think about it I was a total fucked up. I have so many problems with Voldemort and everything thing else and now on top of that I have to deal with the love of my life. If I still have one, that is. You maybe wondering why I am so full of rage, acting like a wounded animal in the Room of Requirements. That is easy to explain, Hermione's enacting her revenge. She did say she'd make me pay. Is it ironic how sometime you push people to just prove you right. Hermione had asked me to meet her in the Astronomy Tower to talk, I had smiled because I though she would forgive me. Go to my fucking surprise that when I got there I saw Hermione making out with the Slytherin Prince himself. The blond fucking ferret, the way her hands tugged on his hair. The way he held her and how she responded to him reminded me us. She had always been very responsive, with the way her body just knew how to drive you up the wall.
What have you done?
Did I really hurt her that much? When I saw that, I felt my world crash down and I felt alone again. Even now as I remember, the tears of anger make their way down. I feel like a total idiot as well as disgraced.
A couple of days later after the incident I simply avoiding her, I finally got cornered in the Common Room late at I sat on the couch in front of the fire I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned to look. That hand belonged to none other than Hermione. I quickly shrug it off moved away from the couch closer to the fireplace. Hermione simply just walked and hugged me from behind. She whispered 'It hurts doesn't it'. It was said as a statement not a question. Those words made me shiver. They were cold and I finally understood what she wanted to make me feel; what I made her feel. She quickly let go and sat down on the floor quietly watching the fire.
I've been fool
Won't let it go
We will be free when it ends
She stared into the fire while biting her bottom lip. Hermione always did that she was thinking. I gracefully sat down on the couch and looked at her from behind. Her brown hair was up in a ponytail with a few pieces framing her face. Her face looked so soft making me want to rub her cheeks and look into her big brown eyes that always hold love and hope in them. And just as I was losing myself in my thoughts, she spoke.
"Harry."
"Yeah" I respond, clearing my throat.
"I think that we should take a break." She turned around to stare at me; I sat there in shock.
"WHAT!" Just as I was about to continue but she beat me to it.
"Harry we need time to think things over. I need to know if I still love you, or maybe I need to know if you are still worth it." Her voice was strong but then it broke half way. I could hear the emotion laced within that one sentence. Those words hit me and they hurt. How could she think I am not worth it? Did I really fuck up so badly that I can't fix it? I got up and pulled her to a hug as we both broke down. I cried for my stupidity and for hurting her. She cried because of everything I had done.

I learned a lot from this experience. I learned that just because I can doesn't mean I should, and just because I should doesn't mean I can. Hermione will always be the one for me. She is the first and last thing I think about before I sleep. Have I learned not to hurt her—yes. Have I learned that I need to appreciate her because at any moment she can leave.
Why? Why does fate make us suffer?

What have you done now!
It's been years since this incident. We did take a break and I was a mess. I felt betrayed as Hermione went on dates with the Syltherin Prince. It turns out that Draco, yes he is now Draco, was just trying to get Hermione to set him up with Luna. Who would have thought? They were just acting like they were dating, but no one really saw them in public a lot. Hermione and I got together when we truly needed each other. I defeated Voldemort three years after 5th. It was rocky between Hermione and me but we were able to over come it. Ron got married to Lavender Brown. Ginny married Draco's best friend Blasie. Funny how thing change, I matured and learned to deal with things. Now in the present I am married to Hermione and have a family.
Okay this actually is a happy ending. I wrote the other version that was very heart breaking but I couldn't go through with it. I'll post if you want to read that one, but for now there is one this one.
