Chapter Seven

Truthful

Hermione marched down the stairs into the living room and stood there tapping her foot. Neither Draco, Harry, or Ron noticed her so she said loudly, "So does anyone want to tell me what the fuck my dreams mean?" Harry and Draco looked at her.

"What do you mean?" Harry inquired slowly. He sat down his book down on the coffee table and looked at her and sat his hands on his knee, they were laced together.

"Okay, I got a dream that I found you fucking this girl name Ginny Weasley into your bed," Harry and Draco winced while Ron glared at Harry.,"and I had a graduation speech, you kissed me then I found you kissing some other girl when I was supposed to forgive you." She said fast and loud.

"You were gonna forgive me for everything?" Harry said dreamily in shock then shook his head. "Okay, do you want the shortened version or the long version?"

"The long one would be fine, thank you." Hermione snapped and sat on the couch.

"Okay, here's the thing, you and I were in a relationship and I loved you. I still do to be honest. We got together at the end of the Battle of Hogwarts and were together for six months before you broke up with me because I wasn't smart. You see, Ginny Weasley came up to me after one of my Quidditch matches and caught me off guard by hugging me then shoving a potion down my throat. I realized it was a semi-love/obedient potion. I would love her for a limited amount of time and I would do what ever she wanted. She told me that I loved her and I believed her. She told me that I had got with a lot of other girls and that I know belonged with her and we were soul mates. I believed. She told me to make love to her. I did. And you walked in during it. I really did not want to! Believe me, Hermione! After you broke up with me, my heart literally broke. I couldn't breathe and I felt like I was going to be sick. As you were walking out, the potion had wore off and I was trying to tell you but you shut the door in my face. I really honestly love you. I do, Hermione. I went through Hell trying to get you back because I hated losing you and I knew I didn't deserve you but I wanted you. I wanted you to be mine. That's why I kissed you that night. I kissed another girl because I was drunk and my mind thought it was you." Harry had tears running freely down his face from eyes and he held tightly onto her hands.

Hermione sat in shock. She knew she had dated Harry but she didn't think this would happen in her love life. She sat there numb as can be. She took her hands from Harry and stood up.

"I knew a moment." She said emotionlessly and walked out of the room. She was walking down the hall when she heard heart-wrenching sobs that broke her heart. She hurried up stairs and into her room then locked the door. She slid down the door and the tears started to flow freely. She banged her head against the wall and just wished for this pain to stop.


Harry's P.O.V.

I sat there with my hands in my head, sobbing my eyes out as Draco and Ron tried to talk to me. I just shook my head and let sobs escape my mouth over and over again. She doesn't love me anymore. Another sob escaped my mouth at this thought.

She deserves better.

She doesn't want you.

You don't deserve her.

She's probably glad she doesn't remember you.

I got up and walked up to my room, which was right across from Hermione's, which made me sob harder. I stood outside my door when I heard sobs coming from Hermione's door. I walked over there and laid my ear against the door. They hurt my heart to the core. I knocked on the door desperately.

"Hermione? Can I come in?" I asked in a nasally voice from crying. I heard movement from inside and then the door unlocking. I opened the door and was greeted with the unwelcome sight of Hermione sobbing in her hands against the wall next to the door. I closed the door, locked it, then slid down beside her. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and pulled her against my chest and let her cry into my chest. I started sobbing with her. I started combing my fingers through her hair.

"It's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay. We're gonna be okay."I heard myself saying even though I didn't believe it myself. I felt her nod into my shirt.

"Why does my life have to be fucked up? I just want my memories back!" I heard her say into my shirt. I sobbed hard for her, for the love of my life. I hated that she went through so much. She deserved the world to be gave to her in a box wrapped in wrapping paper and a pretty pink bow. I rocked both of back and forth, our tears never stopping. Slowly, her breathing slowed and she fell asleep in my arms. I wrapped my arms around her and lifted her. I walked to her bed and pulled back her covers with one hand while I held Hermione with the other one. I sat her in bed and took off her shoes then scouted her farther into the bed. I tried to take my hand back but she grabbed onto it and muttered "Don't go. Stay here with me". I stood there for a moment.

"Are you sure?" I asked quietly. She nodded into her pillow. I said, "Okay." I sat on the edge of the bed and took of my shoes, them unbelted my pants then slid into beside her. He pulled the covers over them and took of his glasses, setting them on the bedside table, then snuggling into the bed's warmth and Hermione did the same and she snuggled into Harry too. They fell asleep together and in the morning they woke wake together. Together. That sounds good to me, Harry thought and he dozed off the land of sleep.


Hermione's P.O.V.

When Hermione awoke, she was peaceful and nicely rested. She was warm and she felt a masculine arm over her waist. She remembered with a smile last night that she had asked Harry to stay with her. She turned over and looked at Harry. He looked so adorable in his sleep. His hair was everywhere! His eyes were loosely closed and his mouth was opened slightly. He breathed in and out in small puffs of air. She giggled and felt his arm tighten around her waist before she found herself on top of him.

"You're staring." Harry stated, sleepy.

"No. I'm gazing. There's a difference." She stated. She was being a smartass and she loved it.

"It's creepy." He said, glaring at her.

"It's romantic." She said, smiling at him. His glare softened and he smiled at her and he leant up. He kissed her cheek lightly and laid back down.

"How was your night, lovely Hermione?" He asks in a mocking tone.

"It was very nice, thank you sir Harry." She said while giving a gentle smile towards him. He smiled and stared into his dazed, emerald green eyes. She decided it was now or never. Now or never.

She leant down and gave him a quick, little peck on his lips before giving him his glasses and sliding off him. She looked back at him. He had a look of shock in his eyes. He looked at her and she stuck her tongue out and then grabbed some clothes and ran into the bathroom with him trying to enter too. She shut the door in his face. She heard him run into the door then fall. She laughed and heard him mutter, 'Just you wait Hermione.' Then she heard the door to her room open the close. She opened the bathroom door then took the clothes she got back out then grabbed an outfit for her to wear and walked back into the room and locked the door. She stared at her reflection in the mirror and saw the happy look in her eyes. She smiled and started the water for her shower. She let the water relax her tense and tight muscles.

When she got out of the shower she changed into the cute outfit she found. It was a charcoal sweater, with dark blue skinny jeans, and black-grau uggs. She grabbed a bow bracelet, a diamond ring, a silver locket, silver square diamond earrings. She applied eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara to her eyes and curled her hair slightly. She just couldn't wait for today to happen. She smiled into the mirror and walked out the door of the bathroom with her head held high.
