"Oh my God! I'm so sorry." He said. Ginny smiled.
"Its okay." she said before turning and walking towards the dining hall.
"You coming?" she asked turning around.
"I'll be there in a bit." He replied. He waited until she was out of earshot before heading towards Hermione's room. He found her on the balcony just staring out to the sea. Peter didn't say anything. He didn't need to. He stood there and put a comforting arm around her shoulder. She laid her head in his shoulder. He knew in that moment that Edmund and Lucy were right. But he didn't just fancy her. He was falling for her. Hard.

Hermione arrived late to breakfast the next morning. She couldn't understand it. She hadn't cried at all since she found out about Ron's death. Susan, Edmund and Lucy watched her expecting her to break down any moment while Ginny, Draco, Blaise and Peter didn't. For some reason they knew she was okay.
Hermione thought about it all through breakfast and then all that morning. She was nearly completely over Ron's death. It wasn't right. How? He was supposed to be the love of her life. Right? But then why wasn't she more upset about his death. It was more like losing a friend. Hermione thought maybe it was because she had known for nearly a year that she would never see him alive again. In a way she had already grieved for him. But she discovered that in her heart she knew already. She knew why she couldn't grieve properly like a person whose fiancé had just been found dead. She knew it was because she didn't love him like that anymore.
She was in love with Peter.

For the rest of the day she tried to avoid him. But that evening as she stared out across the lawn below and up at the beautiful night sky when she noticed someone lying down on the lawn. Carefully she crept down the ladder on her balcony and crept towards the person.
It was Peter.
"Hey." He said.
"hi." She said. She was about to turn and walk back to her room when he said.
"Look… shooting star." He said pointing to it. Both wished on it. Hermione lay down on the grass beside him.

Ginny came into Hermione's bedroom. Her friend wasn't there. She was about to leave when she saw two people out on the lawn. Looking closely she saw it was Hermione and Peter. She gasped when she saw them lean closer…
Xox
Peter's lips touched Hermione's gently. Hermione melted into him before realizing what was going on. She pulled away and jumped up.
"I'm sorry! I can't do this!" she said before running away.
