A/N: This is my first ever fanfic, the song is "I can't fight this feeling " by Air Supply. I would appreciate any comments.

A cold, dark winter's night finds Harry Potter alone with his thoughts partaking in his favourite pastime, flying his firebolt.
While one might think that these thoughts would be of his parents or Voldermort, they would be mistaken.
For a time now these thoughts have more and more often been turning to one certain Gryffindor girl.
I can't fight this feeling any longer
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
"I've loved her for so long now, I can't take it any longer, I just have to tell her" Harry thought.
"I've been friends with her for so long now, but I know that I want more"
"Why am I so scared to tell her? I've survived so much worse before"
I tell myself that I can't hold out forever
I said there is no reason for my fear
Cause I feel so secure when we're together
You give my life direction
You make everything so clear
"I can keep going like this, I'll just end up making a fool of myself"
"I shouldn't be scared, its not that bad"
"She's always helping me to understand, and even what to do"
And even as I wander
I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might
Harry's flight has brought him towards non other than Gryffindor tower and who should be sitting at the window.
Non other than the friend he's fallen in love with, Hermione Granger.
With the candles burning brightly behind her, Harry saw her as a star brighter than any in the sky.
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Hermione Granger sat curled up at the window with her favourite book, 'Hogwarts: A History', this time she was last in thought rather than trying to read.
"I can't keep going on like this, I need to just tell him how I feel" Hermione thought.
"Why didn't I just tell from the beginning?"
"I have to throw it out into the open"
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore
"I can't stop it now I'll do anything to tell you"
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
I've been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone I'd never find
"Ever since we meet amazing things have happened to me"
"I've found happiness take I never thought I could"
And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window on a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might
"Even after all that's happened you still shine through the darkness"
"That's dragging me closer"
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
Harry suddenly crashes in through the window.
"You alright?" Hermione asks with a look of worry on her face.
"Yes" Harry answers, "but I need to tell you something".
"I love you Hermione"
"I love you too Harry"
With that they kiss and the night feels more like at summer evening.
