Chapter 8: Saturday
Hermione woke up to that dreadfully familiar beep, beep, beep.
Ugh. The emergency room has such a negative feeling to it
The pain was gone and she felt a lot less stressed. Hermione opened her eyes only to stare straight into those bottomless emerald pools. Hermione smiled. Then in a quick flash, she saw the little girl from her dream again. Before Hermione could even take a closer look, the image had gone and Hermione forgot all about it.
I can't believe Harry's been staring at me
{What! I can't stare at you now?}
Hermione's eyes went wide.
"Did you just think that?" she asked, amazed.
"Yeah I think so," Harry replied.
That's just too weird
{I know. You know that they are letting you out the hospital today.}
Oh thank God
{Ditto. I usually don't have a problem with hospitals but I was walking around and I passed the mental facility and, I know they can't really help it, but those people are creepy}
You know, this is starting to creep me out. We are communicating through our thoughts. I thought only soul mates could-
Hermione's thoughts trailed off as she blushed slightly and switched her gaze to a blank wall as if it was fascinating to her. These awkward moments continued for some time until Hermione decided she really had to get out of this hospital or she might wind up living there.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~(don't ask)
Hermione got all the paperwork at the hospital done (including owling her parents, Ron and Lavender, and some other people) and was ready to leave. Harry wanted to make sure that Hermione got home safely so he Apparated with her to her house.
Harry and Hermione sat on the couch (more like laying. Harry was laying down and Hermione was laying with her head on his chest) watching T.V (Hey, Hermione hasn't lost touch with her Muggle side). They were watching the movie Titanic on HBO (I know its an old movie but bare with me) and it had gotten to the scene when things got pretty hot and steamy (technically and literally. If you saw Titanic, you know what part I'm talking about). Hermione almost literally felt her hormones racing through her body so she bit her bottom lip to make sure no sounds came out of her mouth (A/N: if you know what I mean. Heheh). She figeted and Harry groaned.
{Oh crap}
"Oh did I hurt you or something?"
Harry's face turned pink and mumbled,
"You did the complete opposite."
Hermione noticed that his eyes flickered down somewhere. She followed his gaze and blushed. Hermione giggled and pushed Harry playfully and he nearly fell off the couch. Then Hermione pulled out her wand and cried,
"Rictusempra!"
That time, Harry did fall and he doubled over giggling uncontrollably. Hermione had hit him with a Ticking charm.
{I'll get you for this, Hermione!}
Hermione smiled slyly and released the charm. Harry laid on the floor trying to catch his breath. Then suddenly, Harry jumped back on his feet and said,
"Your turn!"
He lunged at Hermione and tickled her mercilessly. Hermione could hardly breathe for she was laughing so hard.
"Stop!" she said in between laughs.
"What? I can't hear you?" he taunted.
"Stopme!"
"Only if you tell me who the most handsome wizard in the world is!"
Hermione could have easily said, 'You are!' but she wanted to have a little fun.
"Draco Malfoy!" Hermione yelled and she paid dearly for her little moment of fun. Harry just tickled her harder.
Hermione reached for her wand (something that she should have done a long time ago) and giggled,
"Ex-ex-pelliar-m-mus!"
Her spell seemed to reverse its effect since she was giggling and instead of making Harry go flying and hitting a wall, Harry fell right on top of Hermione in an *cough* awkward position. (A/N: I know how your mind works, Milton, and since you have been waiting so long for this chapter, I'll put some visual stuff in this scene *cough* a-hole *cough*.)
"Holy Shit," Harry breathed.
Hermione's heart was practically beating a drum (A/N: not literally ppl!) in her chest.
"Oops?" Hermione said timidly.
Harry didn't say anything. He just brought his lips to meet Hermione's.
"One leeeetle problem, Harry," Hermione said, pulling away from Harry.
"What?"
"These," Hermione said, taking off Harry's glasses and tossing them across the floor somewhere. Where they were didn't matter at the moment. They were lost in their own world when Harry's hands started trailing up Hermione's back (Harry had already unbuttoned her blouse) and tracing the outline of her bra. (A/N: Note to audience: please do not try this at home *heehee*) Hermione had unbuttoned Harry's shirt and suddenly
"Ahem!"
Hermione screamed in surprise and peeked over the sofa to see who it was.
"Ron!" she shrieked as she tried to button her blouse quickly before he saw too much. Unfortunately, Harry had chosen this moment to peek his head over the sofa beside Hermione.
Ron raised an eyebrow and crossed his arms over his chest.
"I come over to check on a friend who has just gotten out of the hospital and I find this!" He said in sarcastic shock. "Look like I saved Hermione from going back into the emergency room for a whole other situation!"
Hermione and Harry blushed a deep red. Harry picked up a pillow from the sofa and aimed it at Ron.
"You're walking a fine line, Mr. Weasley," he said.
Ron smiled and yelled,
"HARRY AND HERMIONE SITTING IN A TREE! K-I-S-S-I-N-oof!" the pillow hit Ron square in the face.
Hermione cleared her throat uncomfortably, stood up, and changed the subject.
"Where's Lavender?" she said.
"I'm washing my eyes out in the bathroom!" came a voice.
"Lav!" Hermione exclaimed, "It's not that big of a deal! Harry and I were making outin my houseon the floorwith all of our clothes unbuttoned- okay maybe we over-did it (A/N: back in Brooklyn, we call it O.D'n. See: "Ebonics lesson: Volume 4" just kidding, heehee)
An owl that had landed on the windowsill interrupted Hermione's weak excuse. It was a Daily Prophet delivery owl. She took the newspaper from the owl's talons and paid it 5 knuts. As she scanned over the front page, her eyes narrowed and she gritted her teeth.
{What's wrong, 'Mione?}
"Take a look at this!" Hermione snapped.
Harry walked up and looked at the newspaper. It read:
"'She never treated me fairly at work!' pleads Sally Ash. 'She threatens me and when I saw her reach for her wand that day, I felt the need to make the first move to defend myself!' The Ministry of Magic's Interrogative Squad feels that Ash is not telling them the truth and since Granger was not available for questioning at the time, drastic measures must be taken. A Veritaserum Truth Potion is being prepared for Ash. The Daily Prophet's Reporter's Department doubts that Ash will keep her job regardless if the charges are dropped or not."
"Hmmm," was all Harry said for awhile. Then, "The nurses told me exactly what Sally did to you."
Hermione looked up at Harry's face. He looked like he was really thinking hard.
"What did she do?"
"She did this really complex birth control type of spell thingy," he said turning a little pink.
"What do you mean?" Hermione was confused and confused leads to being worried.
"I mean that you can't have children for 2 years,"
~*~
