~I saw you yesterday with an old friend


It was the same old same how have you been

Since you've been gone my world's been dark and grey

You reminded me of brighter days

I hoped you were coming home to stay
I was headed to church

I was off to drink you away

I thought about you for a long time
Can't seem to get you off my mind
I can't understand why we're living life this way

Time passed and Harry and Hermione had both tried to get on with their lives. Harry had been spending most of his free time with Ron, catching up on old times and just goofing off with his long time best friend.

Hermione had immersed herself in her work and redecorating her flat. Anything to keep her mind off Harry. One weekend she decided to go to Hogsmeade so she could get out of the house for a change and enjoy some fresh air, and maybe do a little bit of shopping.

"Hey Harry.."Ron said

"Hmm?" Harry replied. The boys were visiting Ron's family at The Burrow but had soon become bored and wanted something to do.

"Want to go to Hogsmeade? We can go visit Zonko's and the Three Broomsticks for old times sake." Harry smiled "Sure, sounds good". So the guys grabbed their cloaks and with 2 *pops*, had apparated to Hogsmeade.

Hermione had come out of a robe shop and was headed down the street, when she stopped dead in her tracks. She could see the messy raven hair, and the bright red hair down the street, coming her way. "There's only 2 people that could be" she thought helplessly.

Harry and Ron were headed for The Three Broomsticks when Harry spotted, Her...just feet away from him...his eyes locked onto hers. "Hullo Hermione" Harry said, somehow managing to keep the sadness he was feeling out of his voice.

"Hullo Harry" Hermione said, in an equally unreadable voice. The 2 seemed to have forgotten that Ron was even there.

"How are you?

"Just fine Harry....and you?"

"Fine" Harry muttered

"That's good" Hermione genuinely smiled at him, then said, "Well, I must be off"

"Alright then, good to see you....Bye Mya...." Harry finished, barely audible over the noise of the bustle around him. "You too...bye Harry" Hermione quickly walked off and Harry and Ron did the same.

Hermione didn't feel much like doing anything anymore so she apparated back to her flat before a tear could fall.

The 2 wizards made their way to the Three Broomsticks silently, and didn't speak until they were at a table with butterbeers in hand.

"You should call her you know.....or at least owl her" Ron said a bit quiet, unsure of his friends reaction. But Harry didn't hear him at first. He was lost in his thoughts and overwhelmed by all of the emotions that, just seeing her, brought back. Ron waved his hand in front of Harry's face a few times, snapping him back into reality. Harry looked at Ron, "what?" he asked.

Ron sighed, "I said...you should call her or at least owl her sometime"

"oh...I don't know about that Ron". Ron left it at that for awhile but as they were leaving Ron simply said "Just think about it Harry".

^Meanwhile^

Hermione had arrived home and was sitting in the garden, weeping, wishing more than anything that Harry was there with her.
