Author's Note: Ok here is the deal. I have got a lot of votes for what to do and I have come to the decision that you people have confused me more than ever! I am going to finish out the story but I am going to put a little bit of a twist on the end. They are going to Diagon Alley. ((Because that is what you guys want…I think…well anyway)) and I only have a few more chapters of this story left so I am going to finish day-by-day…. and to everyone who said it was getting a little predictable ((which I agree with)) I am going to try and spice it up a bit.
Thanks for all your votes! And reviews! ((I still can't believe I got so many reviews! 208! I must be in Heaven you guys are the best!))
Kisses
Day 18
Harry awoke the next morning without Hermione next to him. He felt alone and empty. He never wanted to feel that again. He wanted her to be there with him when he woke. 'O Lord, what is it going to be like at Hogwarts!?' his mind screamed. But he pushed his thoughts aside and got out of his bed.
He walked over to Hermione's door and pushed it open slowly. Hermione was still asleep on her bed. She looked like an angel. Her hair was over the pillow next to her, her white satin nightgown was showing to her torso and she had her blankets up the rest of the way. The sunlight shined through the window and she seemed to glow. Her eyelashes began to flutter open.
"G'morning." She said groggily.
"G'morning." He said back.
" How long have you been standing there watching me?" she asked with a smirk.
"Not too long. Although I could look at you forever. "
"Oh Harry I forgot to tell you yesterday. Mum wants to go to Diagon Alley today."
"That's fine." Harry walked over and kissed her lightly on the lips and went off to take a shower before they left. Hermione began to get dressed and they met downstairs about 15 minutes later.
Hermione's mum was getting them some breakfast, which they hardly ate, before running out the door.
They went to Diagon Alley by themselves. Before they knew it they were taping the bricks just the way Harry remembered the first time he had come to Diagon Alley. Harry took Hermione's hand and they began to walk into the correct shops.
((A/N: They had gotten their letters already))
They walked into one of the new book shops and Hermione went off looking At all the books. She looked around the room amazed. Their were long drapes and thousands of books. She was so excited about this new shop. She was looking around while Harry was looking at something else unknown to Hermione.
When Hermione came back she saw Harry staring at something. Almost as if he didn't think or didn't want it to be true. She followed his gaze and saw what he was seeing.
"Harry, it's not nice to stare." she said while her eyes were still glued to the sight before them. Right in front of them stood a very busy Ginny Weasly with a very busy Draco Malfoy.
"Ginny?" Harry said. Ginny and Draco broke apart and looked around. "Oh." She looked at her feet to hide the red rushing into her cheeks. "Hi Harry, Hermione."
"I thought you and the family were on a vacation." Harry said.
Ginny gave Hermione a funny look and Hermione gave a look back to her and she said " Oh yeah," she said straining to find words. "Well, we came back a little early. I thought Ron would have owled you sooner." she said quickly, with a smile.
"Oh well, I guess Ron…"
"You guess I what?" came Ron's voice from behind them.
"Forgot to owl Harry and I when you got back!" Hermione said rather quickly. "Oh," he paused. "That. Sorry you guys."
"It's ok. Do you want to finish shopping with us?" Harry asked.
"Well actually this was our last stop…And I am meeting someone…and I assure you that my dear little sister and her boyfriend" He said the words with disgust. "Will just make you sick. Like they do me!" He said rather loud.
"We could probably do that huh, Ginger?" asked Draco.
"Yes, mmph, we could" she said, kissing him.
"Ugh!" said Harry Hermione and Ron in unison.
"Must you kiss him Gin! It s revolting!" Came Harry's voice. But all he received from Ginny was a nod and a death glare from Draco.
Later on that day back at Hermione's house….
"Hermione?"
"Yes Harry?" Hermione said while coming out of the kitchen with their drinks.
"Come outside with me."
"OK."
They walked outside and Hermione noticed how it was beginning to get dark and she could hardly see. Yet there was still some light out. The dew was starting to form on the ground and she could feel a light breeze in the air. The air smelled of roses and lilacs.
"Hermione, I am going to take you flying."
"What! Harry you know I don't like to fly!"
"Exactly why I am going to help you do it."
"What are you talking about?"
"Remember when I asked you what you didn't do?"
"Yes."
"Do you remember what you said?"
"Fly." she said , voice barely above a whisper.
"Yes. So now you are going to fly." He mounted his broom and put out his hand. She took it but was still a little reluctant. She climbed on the broom in front of him. He put his arms around her waist and kissed her neck.
"Are you ready?" he didn't wait for an answer because he knew if he did he wouldn't get one. He kicked off the ground and went slow at first.
He could feel her tense in his arms. A small smile came creeping to his face. No matter what she always felt good in his arms.
Her eyes were closed by now and she had no intentions of opening them. All she knew was they kept getting higher and higher. She felt him going straight up, as the force pushed her into his chest she took in his scent. They were up about 300 feet before they spoke.
"Open your eyes." He said gently.
"How did you know they were closed?" she asked.
"I know you too well."
"Is that a bad thing?" she asked quietly.
"No love. Now open your eyes."
She did as she was told and she was amazed at what she saw. She looked around her and saw the tree line to where her house was. The tree tops were covered in the early dew and the grass was shimmering like glitter. The sky was no longer a blanket cover the stars, for the stars were now out and bright as ever. The moon was full and a slightly orange in color. It was beautiful.
She turned to look at Harry. " Thank you Harry. You made me fly." she said with a soft smile.
"No I haven't"
"Yes you have."
"No I haven't. Now take hold of the broom."
"What!" She yelled.
"Take the broom you are going to fly. And to fly you need to steer the broom."
"O Lord." She said under her breath. "You'll be fine" he whispered in her ear. She took hold of the broom and started to steer listening to the directions Harry was whispering in her ear. After a little bit she wanted to try and land the broom. Once she had accomplished that she got off the broom and ran to him. She was so happy that she flew.
"Harry! I can see why you love it so much! It is like a drug you can't get enough of!" she said happily.
They stayed like that for a little while and then she licked his cheek and said "I own your cheek" and winked at him.
"Oh you do huh?" he asked and tackled her to the ground and licked her back on the cheek. " Now I own your cheek." She just laughed. They got up and she closed her eyes. She felt the dew on her back and the scents flooded her nose again. She looked around her for Harry but he was nowhere to be seen. She yelled for him once and fell to the ground in fright. She thought she could find him somewhere.
Maybe he was just hiding. She decided to go look in the house. But what she didn't see was his broom was missing too. She went into the house and went around looking for him. She went into his room to see his window open and a light breeze was blowing the long drapes. She looked around his room and saw that there was a broom leaning against the window. She thought to herself 'that wasn't in here before' she walked into her and found nothing.
OK sorry to leave you there but you know you did say it was getting boring…..Review!
