Chapter 12: A few years later
Life was simple now. I lived in the apartment next to Hermione, which I bought when I had enough money, my mum lived in a little flat in the diagonally which was provided by the minister of magic after Hermione and Harry had started a trail for her. The trail had taken a month, they had discussed my mother's crimes and the fact that see saved Harry's life, which I didn't know till the trail. Hermione, Luna, Neville and the whole Weasley family (save Ron) had taken it upon themselves to help me study so I could finish school. Now I had a steady job as auror with the ministry of magic, but I often came to Hermione's shop to help out. Life was great.
Every second Saturday of the month a group of friends came together. Hermione, Ginny, Luna, Neville, sometimes George and me, this time George and Ginny weren't here. They were on a family dinner with Lavenders parents. Ron and Lavender had been married and even I had been invited.
Tonight it had been Hermione's choice about what they were going to do. Apparently it was movie night. I kind of knew what a movie was but I was very curious. I was very excited to hear we were going to 'watch' Lord of the rings, the fellowship of the ring. The very first book of a muggle auteur Hermione had given me and my very favourite one. We had settled down on the couches. Luna and Neville were snuggled up together on one of them. Hermione and I shared the other couch with a big bowl of popcorn in between us. The movie was unlike anything I had seen before. I heard Hermione giggle when I, yet again, jumped at one of the effects. The movie had ended and Neville and Luna left.
*Would you like to see the second one? We still have some time.* I was surprised by this request but I agreed none to happily, I really wanted to see the second movie and I wouldn't pass up on an opportunity to hang out with Hermione. ¨Yeah sure.* With the popcorn gone we were seated directly next to each other. Halfway through the movie Hermione's head fell on my shoulder, clearly a little tired. It had been a long day in his shop. At first I was quite uncomfortable at first, I wasn't sure what to do in this kind of situation, but after a little while I decided to let my head fall on hers. Her hair smelled nice and soft and it felt amazing. The movie ended but we didn't move, somewhere along the movie our hands had gotten entangled together.
Eventually I lifted my head to look at her, and she looked back. I couldn't help myself and pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear. She turned slightly red and she turned away, but I cupped her cheek and turned her back. We looked deep into each other's eyes and I knew that we felt the same way and I leaned in carefully. Our lips touched and fireworks went off behind my eyes. The kiss was careful and soft, just to feel each other's touch. It quickly became more passionate, as I pulled her closer to me. Her hand on my shoulders pulling me closer as my hands got entangled in her hair. The kiss was full of lust that had been buried for too long, as I fell backwards onto the couch with Hermione still on top of me. Her lips were soft and tasted like cherries and I never wanted to stop, but we still had to breathe so we parted. I smiled softly at her, she smiled back. Her head rested on my chest as she fell asleep, breathing softly. I carefully played with her hair. I fell asleep with her in my arms. Life was good.
-The End-
