They say when you fall for someone, you fall hard, and that's exactly what I did. It wouldn't be bad if it was any other girl, but no, I had to fall for my best friend, I don't really know when I fell for Hermione Granger, it must of been at the Yule Ball, back in my 4th year. She came into the Great Hall, looking more beautiful than ever. Sadly, after that moment I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I was revolted when I saw who her date was- Victor Krum. I despise that guy, what does he have that I don't? So what if he is an internationally famous, I'm famous, more so than he will ever be. I've defeated the dark lord tons of times. Okay, so Krum is and always will be, better looking than I am, I don't look that bad, I could have a different girlfriend every week, if I wanted to, but I just can't make myself stop thinking about her. Sure, I'm now in the last month of my 6th year, I've had girlfriends, Lavender, Parvati, Ginny, to Ron's horror, and I even had a chance with Cho, for about a month. I've never fallen in love with any of the girls that I dated, they were all to giggly, and flirty, I couldn't have an intelligent conversation with any of them if my life depended on it.
So then why don't I just tell her, you ask? First I would have to work up the courage to tell her, then I would make a complete fool out of myself, blushing, and stuttering, slurring my words together as if I was some drunk idiot. Then I would have to wait for her answer. Would she laugh in my face as if it were the funniest thing ever? Or would she get angry at me, slap me on the face, and storm away, losing our friendship over my stupid feelings for her? But, there is a small, teeny- tiny chance that she would return the feelings, and kiss me? What would everyone else say if we did go out? Ron, he would be furious, and madly jealous, he has liked Hermione since our 5th year, they even went out for a little while, but they got in so many fights that they broke up, their friendship never was shattered forever, Ron doesn't hang out with us that much any more. I can't help but wonder if that would happen if we got together and broke up, then I would be all alone, the trio would be split up forever. Ginny would be heartbroken, she still is unbelievably infatuated with me that its not even funny. She flaunts herself at me, following me around, doing little favors for me, she even once wrote me poetry.
I understand Hermione better than anyone, she always comes to me rather than her roommates when she has had a bad day, like when Malfoy teases her of Snape, being the ass he is, is mean to her. If she has had a bad break-up, she comes to me, yes, Hermione has had many boyfriends, she has had the attention of many guys since the Yule ball. She went out with, Justin finch- Fletchy, Ron, Dean, and Krum. I've had to listen to her cry and complain about the different guys, how she thought that they were "the one". All the while I would be comforting her I was wishing that I could get my hands on them and beat them up for causing her grief. For that reason, Hermione looks at me as some sort of older brother role, defending her honor and all that.
I'm always flocked by girls, they follow me every were, I can never get a moment alone with Hermione, she is always left behind, I can tell that she feels obsolete and small compared to those girls, but they are just all fake, shallow and vain. Hermione is ten times better than them.
I would be a danger for us to get together, Voldermort is still in power, growing stronger every minute. If he knew that I was in love with someone than he would use that against me, as a weakness, if anything happened to Hermione I would die. Voldemort knows no mercy against people, I had once pitied him, he had no one who had cared for him when he was younger, and the more people pushed him away the more he turned to the dark arts for a way out. He sought revenge for those who had caused him pain, he had gathered followers, those who relished in the idea of the power of dark arts, who lived for the cry of death, for the smell of human flesh, the pleading and crying for mercy, and the suffering and pain that they knew they could cause. The feeling of pity quickly faded as he killed some first years, when he had somehow, unexplainably got into Hogwarts.
So now, like I said before, I have learned that when you fall for someone, you fall hard.
