"Sirius??? Siruis Black... you know him?" she asked.

"Yes i know him, he's my god fateher!" Harry thought she would look suprised when he said this, and she did.

"So like, that means your kind of like my cousin then?" She asked Harry.

"Wait then.."Harry paused, "Then your Siruis's daughter???" He asked in disbelief.

"Yup the one and only!"

"I never knew siruis had a daughter! Why didn't he tell me?"

"Wait, so you still talk to my father, when hes on the run and all."

"Of course i do" Harry answered, "He makes sure im safe... Hes very overprotective."

"OverPRotective!!!!" she asked in outrage! "How is trying to keep Harry Potter, the boy who lived overprotective???"

"Whoa... calm down. I was only kidding." Harry said

"Okay" she said and smiled.

'I dont know how i didnt notice this earlier but she has the same smile of Siruis, i should have known' he thought to himself.

"Who's your mother?" He asked. which apparently was the wrong thing to do cuz she almost started to cry.

"Im not sure. My dad wouldnt tell me!"

Harry was in shock!!! why would Siruis tell his own daugher who her mother was????!!! [pic]

"Im sorry. About us being cousins sort of, i guess we can tell Hermione and Ron because i tell them everything about Snuffles."

"Snuffles??? He told you to call him snuffles while talkin about him too??? Wow amazing. Well lets go cousin!" And they walked back into the COmmon room.

Harry and Claude walked into the common room with their arms linked.(Not holding hands... do u kno what i mean??)Ron go up from his chair where he was playing wizards chess with George as hermione watched on. He walked over to Harry and Claude.

"You bastard!" He said before he punched Harry right in the face!!!

*****************************************************************

"Harry im sooo sorry" Ron said as Harry gained conciousnous. "Claude explained everything to me. You know, about Snuffles." he said as he lowered his voice.

So they werent mad at each other and everyone went to bed late that night. Because they were talking and laughing and just having a good time. But, Ron and claude didnt know that Hermione and Harry had arranged a secret meeting in the common room after everyne had gone to bed. They each snuck down their dormitory stairs and Harry lied down on the couch. It was a wide couch so Hermione lay down next to him. They lay there together Harrys arms around Hermione as they watched the fire crackle. All of the sudden Harry was building up the nerve to say something.

"I-i" he stopped.

"What is it Harry?" Hermione asked.

"I love you."

He went to get up off the couch and was stopped by hermiones arms grasping at him to stay.

"Really?" she asked. Her hands still grabbing his biceps.

"Well, yeah, i mean i think so. I've never ever felt this way about anyone. Not even cho."Hermione looked outraged when he compared her to cho!

"Your comparing me to her?!!!" sshe screamed at him! "I thought you were over her!"

"I am Herm, and its because of you. She is Nothing campared to you. Theres no contest! believe me. My feelings towards you are true, you have to believe me." Hermione looked into his eyes and her heart melted. How could she not believe him.

"I do believe you harry, and i love you too."

With that harry leaned over and kissed her, more passionatly than either one of them has every kissed before and Harry just then relilized that if someone were to come in it would awfully bad. Not only for the fact that they were making out on the common room couch but the position they were in. It seems that when Harry went to get up and Hermione stopped him, he now was basically straddiling her![pic] so he threw his invisiblity cloak on top of them. After a while they just lay down watching the fire crackle.
