I am SO sorry this is late. This poem and chapter were a bit harder to do. Plus, when I finally got it done- my computer died. It just kept freezing and wouldn't start up…and then when it finally did-I could connect to the internet. So that pretty much stunk. Sorry again for such a delay. Also, the teachers are cramming us with extra homework for before the holidays so that also added to the wait. But, we should all try to be happy since I finally updated so- On with the show!!!!
"Hey, Mione, wake up!!" someone shouted.
She weakly opened her eyes and took in her surroundings. She was in the common room; a book had fallen to the ground beside her. Remembering what had happened last night, she recalled going to the common room to read since she couldn't sleep. Now it was morning and three people stood around her.
Her eyes moved from Lavender to Ron to-
"Ahhh!!!!" she screamed.
Everyone turned to Harry, who looked as shock as them. "What- I didn't do anything! I just smiled."
"Hermione, are you okay?" Lavender asked, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Yea…yea I'm okay," she panted, "Just remembered a bad dream I had."
"About Harry?" she questioned, looking over at him. He had an 'I didn't do anything' expression on his face.
"What? W-why do you say that?" Hermione stuttered, looking down at the ground.
"Well, when you saw him, you screamed and I don't think you do that daily, do you?"
Hermione managed a weak smile. "No, no of course not. He just surprised me. I…I had thought I was in the girls' dorm."
"You didn't scream at me…" Ron said, raising an eyebrow.
"So…Lets get some breakfast!" Hermione announced quickly, heading towards the portrait door.
"In your pajamas?" Lavender asked, crossing her arms across her chest.
"Uh…I'll go change…" she said, blushing, as she turned back towards the stairs.
"I'll come with." Lavender said, following her up the stairs, determined to get some answers. The boys headed off to the Great Hall for breakfast.
* * * * * * * * * * *
The two girls walked into the 7th year dorm room as the others walked out for breakfast. Seeing no one else there, Lavender thought it would be the best time to ask.
"So…" she began, taking a seat on one of the beds.
"So what?" Hermione replied, trying to untangle her hair.
"Harry was in your nightmare." She stated.
"Who said Harry was in my nightmare?" She asked quickly.
"You did. You screamed when you saw him and then said it was just a nightmare, meaning that it was him."
She sighed. "Alright. Alright. It was him. I just couldn't say that with everyone, including him, there."
"Tell me about it."
"Ok…
************************Hermione's dream(in her POV)***********I meant nightmare********************
I was in a dark room. There were no windows and the only source of light was from this fire in front of me. It was in a big fireplace with two griffins on either end. Suddenly, Harry stepped out of the flame, onto the hard floor. I…I don't think he saw me. He looked at me, but it was like he was looking past me. Then I felt something, like a brush of air on my side. I turned and saw Cho…she was walking towards him. That was what Harry was staring at; not me. I was like a ghost that couldn't be seen. Just an onlooker to whatever event took place. I suddenly have the urge to voice my feelings; to scream out to him 'I love you!' but as I try to speak…nothing happens. Even if something did come out I doubt he would hear me…or if he did…if he would care. But then I something starts to control me…and I say this poem…said more like a chant though. It's like a narrative to what's happening. It went like this
She has your heartIn her hand
She tears it part
You don't understand
She raises her wand
Mutters a spell
I want you to despond
Run away from this hell
I try to warn you
But it's too late
I wanted to save you
From this horrible fate
But you are oblivious
For she owns your mind
She pulls you into a kiss
Into a feeling divine
My heart rips
As you react
You lean towards her lips
You don't push her back
I scream out your name
Scream out my love
She is to blame
For your unwanted love
But it's too late
My efforts don't prevail
At the alter you wait
As she adjusts her veil
I try one last time
To change this fate
But with this last rhyme
I know it's too late.
Then, when I finish the last line, he turns around and looks at me. His eyes are wide and he looks scared. He mouths 'help me' right before Cho grabs him and starts kissing him again. Then when they pull apart, he looks at me and…and its not him. Its like he morphed into a raven and he suddenly flies up ready to attack me and…and…that when you guys got me up.
************************End of Hermione's nightmare*****************************************************
"Wow" Lavender said, after finding the words.
"I know."
"You should tell him. If you don't you'll probably continue having dreams like this."
Hermione shook her head. "No. No. I can't. I…I have other things in life to deal with other than that like…like studies, like careers, like…like"
"Like Harry."
"Lavender-I can deal with this on my own!" She said harshly.
"Your way of dealing with it is not dealing with it at all!" Lavender shouted back.
"Well it's better than getting you involved and doing some…some stupid matchmaking scheme!"
"Matchmaking scheme you say?" Lavender said, trying to act shocked. "Why, of all people, would you think I would do something as criminal as matchmaking?"
Hermione rolled her eyes. "Just don't get involved, Lav, ok?"
Lavender smiled. "Why of course not. I wouldn't do anything to set up you up…"
* * * * * * * * * * *
Ron and Harry sat in the Great Hall, at the Gryffindor table, eating their toast. Lavender and Hermione still and not come back yet.
Ron cleared his throat. "Hey, Harry…"
"Yea?" Harry looked up from his untouched toast.
"You should really tell her."
"Tell who what?" Harry asked, puzzled.
"Tell Hermione that you…have feeling for her. "Ron said, trying to find the right words.
"I can't do that! You saw what happened this morning! She took one look at me and screamed."
"What have you go to lose?"
"Friendship" he simply stated. The conversation ended as the two girls came into the Great Hall, each taking a seat.
Well that's the end of Chapter 4. I guess I'm turning this into a matchmakers story. Hope that's ok. I know its been used a few times but I think mine is the only that's going to have poetry. And yes it will probably turn to be R/L in the end too(as well as H/hr-duh!) Because of evil school and evil teachers the next chap may be delayed. If I don't get it up by tomorrow it will be up by Dec. 5 (all my project are due on the 4). I hope that's ok.
And a serious question: *gasp*
Do you want it to be
a) long- like just keep going- I have a couple of ideas like a ball and more match making probably resulting in some R/L. And of course a poem per chapter.
b) Or…short. Like end it within the next few chaps- probably at most reaching 7. Probably will sound a bit forced so I'm rooting for A.
Thx and please review. I got my email up now so u can email me suggestions too. Just look at my profile page. Thx! And muchos besitos!! ( I love that word….*besitos*)
_____________________________________________________________________________
And reviewer thx because you guys are great!!
Thefly~ So true. Life is just way too complicated. I love that song too…Any Avril fans out there?
Crazyone16~ *laughs* Yep Draco and Britney forever…
Samenia~ And then after Britney breaks up with Draco she can get with Pikachu who soon after kills her. Perfect!
Usha88~ U don't now the horrors of a ghetto guy in Vegas… I don't think anyone believes me though. Is it that unbelievable?
Hopedreamer~ I'm glad you weren't disappointed. I don't think Fed and George are gonna appear. Perhaps but I wouldn't count on it. Sorry that I hate Spartacus but when you're watching a movie with about 30 ghetto people, its hard to concentrate on what's happening. Plus when ever a "fluffy" part comes my teachers fast forwards though it while mimicking a girl saying "I love you" and then mimicking the guy and saying "I love you too" And it goes on like that. I'm watching the version with the Spartacus having this freaky dimple on his chin…
Friendly-mione~ Yep, I wrote all the poetry. I'm glad u like it!
Alicia~ I'm not sure how long. I'm guessing 6 chaps…but I find out from the reviews…
Smart1hermione~ Hi Tessa. So how are you liking the H/hr-ness that is soon to come? I hope that you will soon realize the beauty of Harry and Hermione.
Aquarian Angel~ Yes, of course I'm continuing- cant end it here. Pikachu is a good way to make people support H/hr…I should try that on Tessa…hehehe.
Hermione2003Potter~I don't know what I was thinking when I came up with A. I was just bored and that was the first thing that popped into my mind. I love it when people destroy Britney Spears. If any fans of her are reading this…uh…sorry but its just y own opinion.
Centra-gal86~ Britney is incredibly bad AND scrary. Thank you for mentioning that.
And thx to everyone else who reviewed!!!!!!!!!
H/Hr FOREVER!!
