Tension, Anticipation, and A Little Romance
Chapter 2: The Beginning.
Ever since the moment at the train station, Harry and Hermione could feel the connection and the electricity between them. They felt as if, together, they were inside on a secret that the rest of the world did not know. They felt as if they were living together in their own magical, fairy-tale like world. Although they never said anything about it to each other, they didn't have to. The feelings they now felt for each other were beyond words. Although, they did feel that they needed to do SOMETHING to make it.official. But they couldn't. They just weren't ready yet. They had to let nature take its course.
They were now safe and cozy in Gryffindor Tower. Harry, Hermione, and Ron were sharing their summer adventures with each other, with Neville Longbottom and some of the other Gryffindors gathered excitedly around them.
Professor McGonagall entered the room, eager to know how everyone was doing. Although she never said anything either, she had always known that Harry and Hermione were right for each other. She chuckled to herself at the sight of them sitting next to each other, with that same magical gaze in their eyes.
The next day at the library, as always, Hermione was studying hard.
"Hermione," Harry said gently, "why don't you take a little break? The exam on how to fight a Gooburoo isn't for three weeks!"
"Oh no, only three weeks." Hermione muttered to herself.
"Come on, why do you torture yourself like this?"
"Oh, it's not torture! I love it!" she said defensively.
"Please, Hermione?" Let's just go hang out with Hagrid or something."
"Ohhhhhh.if you insist," she said reluctantly.
Harry smiled. He helped her out of her chair, and they walked together down the hall. Harry took her hand. She smiled, wishing this moment would last forever.
"Hey, Hermione?"
"Yes, Harry?"
"Come 'ere." He began taking her around the corner, into a dark area of the castle.
"Where are we go-" But before Hermione could finish her sentence, he had pulled her close into a magical embrace and kissed her gently upon her lips. Her face went pale. She couldn't believe what had just happened. Wow.she thought.
"Now doesn't this beat studying?" Harry asked, amusingly. She giggled, and grabbed him again. Although, this time it wasn't the soft, gentle kiss he had given her. It was the kind of hot, steamy, sweaty, passionate kind of kiss you see in the movies and only dream about having yourself one day. Hermione and Harry went crazy with different thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Hermione had thought that when he took her hand, it was the best feeling she had ever had. But now.this.this was a million times greater.
"Harry?"
"Yes, sweetie?"
"We've got to keep this a secret, at least for now. We can't even tell Ron. If this gets out to Draco or anyone, we'll never hear the end of it."
"You're right. We'll tell Ron in our own time," Harry said, before placing another magical kiss upon her cheek. He then left her. And Hermione slumped back against the stone wall, letting out an enormous sigh of happiness. "Finally," she whispered to herself. ".finally." She smiled.
