-Sirius'onlylove


Hermione woke up the next morning laughing. She'd pay money to see Snape in a dress. She looked at the clock and groaned. 11:00 am. Hermione had slept in. Grumbling to herself, she got up and grabbed her wand. With a few nonverbal spells, Hermione's hair was now in a high ponytail. Cute, yet sensible. She looked down at her pj's, they consisted of long pants and a cami. Her pants were midnight blue and had little white cresent moons on them, while her cami was just plain white. She shrugged. They were decent enough to be seen in. Then she walked out of her room and to the bathroom, where she proceeded to brush her teeth.

She walked quickly down the steps. Hermione wasn't looking where she was going and ran into something. Maybe someone would be the better discription.

"I'm so sorry!" Hermione exclaimed. "Its quite alright darling." Sirius replied.

Hermione looked up, and sure enough Sirius Black was the person she ran into.

Hermione blushed. "Uh, Right. I'm going into the kitchen" She slowly walked away. He followed her in.

The kitchen was empty, no Molly running about making preperations for the day. They sat down at the kitchen table. "Where is everyone?" Hermione asked.

"They went out. I'm not sure where, but I think they wanted to give us time to get to know one an other." Sirius said.

"Oh." She said, realizing that was probably not the reason no one was there. She knew that Molly and the gang probably went out shopping for her engagement party.

"Their" a little voice in her head said.

"What?" She asked herself.

"You need to get used to the fact that its not just YOUR engagement, YOUR wedding, YOUR anything. You and Sirius are in it together now. Nothing will be just yours anymore."

"Thats not true" She argued with herself.

"Oh really?? You'll see." the voice replied and faded away.

"Hermione, Hermione!" Sirius yelled.

Hermione jumped. "Huh, What?!"

Sirius chuckled. "Do you always space out like that?" He asked.

She huffed. "No, I do not!"

Sirius raised his hands, in surrender. "Alright, Alright. I was just asking"

"Did you eat breakfast??" Hermione asked. He shook his head. "Alright-" she said "-what do you want?"

"You" he replied in husky tone.

Hermione raised an eyebrow. "I was just joking blossom, do you think you could whip me up some eggs on toast?" he said with a chuckle.

Hermione nodded, rose, and got out the ingrediants. "Blossom?" she thought. "I like it" She started cooking the muggle way. Hermione loved to cook, but when she did she used non-magical methods only. It gave her a sense of accomplishment when she made something without magic.

Sirius watched her as she worked. The fact she didn't use magic while cooking facinated him. He didn't use magic when he cooked either. It ruined the sastifaction of making something by yourself. He memorized the way she moved. The way she hummed lightly to herself while she worked. At this moment, Sirius was crushing on her. He felt embarressed to say so, but there was no other way to describe it. He didn't love her, thats for sure. "But you could someday." a voice in his head said. He shook his head to clear his thoughts. When this law was repealled they would divorce and things would go back to normal. Right?? But somewhere deep down, he knew that wouldn't happen.

Hermione had noticed Sirius staring at her. A smile appeared on her face. She arranged the food she had made on two plates and brought them to the table. She set one in front of Sirius and one in front of herself. "Dig in" She said. They ate quietly, not saying a thing. The silence they shared was not awkward anymore, infact this was a comfortable silence. Sirius was the first to speak.

"We need to go ring shopping today." he said.

Hermione choked on her food. "What?" Buying a ring made it more real. More tangible.

"We need to go ring shop-" he started.

"I know what you said." She interupted. "Finished?" she asked. He nodded and she took his plate and dumped both in the sink.

"I'll go get dressed and then we can go." She said.

"Alright, blossom. Hurry it up though" She nodded and raced up the steps.

"I like it when he calls me blossom" she thought to herself. Running to her closet, Hermione pulled out a pair of jeans, a fresh white cami, and a maroon sweatshirt. She quickly threw them on and all the while thought about Sirius.

"I like his eyes, such a pretty blue color. And his smile, oh merlin, his smile. It can light up a room." she thought to herself.

"Oh my god. I have a crush on Sirius Black!" she exclaimed aloud. Things were moving to fast for her. This sudden realization had her head spinning. "Why me?" she said to the ceiling.

"I don't know but you better get a move on" a voice said from her door way. Hermione jumped and gave a little yell.

"Sirius Black, don't ever scare me like that again!" she said, and put on her sneakers. With a wave of her wand, light make up appeared on her face. Hermione looked in the mirror at her reflection once more and said "Alright, lets go."

They walked to the front step of Grimmauld Place and apparated to Diagon Alley.
