Chapter 8: This Kiss
That night they went to the library after they left the hospital wing. Hermione said, "You know we should have been in there a long time before now."
Harry just look at her and gave her a winning smile, "But it we had been in here then how would Neville have become so popular."
Hermione melting at his look said, "Yep, the famous Neville Longbottom. What would we do with out him"?
"You are right about that. Yeah what would the world be like with out the famous Neville Longbottom?"
At this last statement, Harry put his arm around her and walked into the library. They went to the totally back of the library to make sure no one would hear them. They both picked a couple of books that looked interesting and went to work.
They stayed in that damp dark corner of the library for hours on end looking through book after book, but they were unsuccessful in finding anything about body switching. Hermione had already gone through all her normal selection, but her search came back with out any rewards. They were getting really tired by the end of the night, and even Hermione was having problems keeping her mind focused on the book at hand.
Harry stopped what he was doing and closed his book. He laid his head down on top of the book, and started starting at Hermione. Many moments past before he spoke, but Hermione knew he was staring at her which really did not help her concentration. He said, "You know Ms. Granger, you are a quite attractive young lady."
Hermione still not looking up from her book said, "Why thank you Mr. Potter. I too believe you to be a quite a hansom gentlemen." Hermione could not be serious any more and started to grin. Another silence resulted, but Hermione used this chance to read more in the book she was looking inside. "Look here, I think I found something."
Harry leaned in towards Hermione to see into her book. There faces were right beside each other, and Hermione softy spoke into Harry's ear, "You see right here it says that under great stress a person may be able to relies ones soul, but it says that they should... um...be able." As she spoke, Harry turned to face her. Hermione kept speaking, "to get back. Um..." He brought his lips closer and closer to hers. Hermione started to move in. "when they wake." Their lips then touched in a very gentle caress as their eyes fluttered close. Hermione's arms went around Harry's shoulders, and Harry's arms moved around her waist. Harry gently togged at her bottom lips with is as she kissed his top lip.
They both moved away at the same time, but they stayed in each other's arms. Harry said, "But this is not a dream." Hermione looked into his eyes and smiled, "But this was my dream" With that, Harry started grinning uncontrollable, and leaned in again for another kiss. There lips touched again in another gentle caress, as they got closer to one another as possible. Right in the middle of their second kiss, Hermione came to the realization of what was happening.
She moved away quickly getting out of Harry's arms as if she had been shocked. Then she jumped up out of her seat. Harry very confused at the sudden change said, "What's wrong?" Hermione now picking up her books whispered, "Harry! You don't understand I just kissed Neville. Ah I just kissed Neville."
Harry got up to calm her down and said, "Hermione, you did not kiss Neville. You kissed me."
Hermione with about all her books in her hands now stopped and turned to Neville. She stated, "Harry, that just as bad. We are friends. We are best friends. We are not supposed to be kissing. That's just not right." She turned, and left in a rush leaving Harry standing there shocked.
