Chapter-7 distractions, flying lessons, and a sunset.
Harry was about to laugh at Hermione's sudden outburst of emotion but thought better of it. It would not be wise to make fun of her fear of flying or the fact that she seemed to care enough that she did not want to see the poster of what could happen to him on a bad day. For the better of mankind or just the two of them Harry agreed. "I will take it down immediately after we get in from your flying lesson." Harry saw Hermione's face slacken with relief but it seemed that her eyes still held fear from that thought of falling from a high point off the ground. Harry chose to try to joke to her to lighten the mood a bit. "I can not believe I even thought of putting that poster on my virgin wall. It was the devil's work. He was tempting me and for that God will condemn me and I will burn in hell for an eternity for it."
When Hermione heard Harry's attempt of lightening the mood she could do nothing but laugh to release the nervousness that was coursing through her veins. Harry saw that she relaxed a considerable amount which made him happy that this would be much easier. He thought it would be best if he smoothed the whole thing over with one final touch to make sure she understood nothing will happen.
Harry stepped forward and took one of Hermione's own delicate hands in his hand and held onto it gently. With his other hand he took his loves face and lifted it so she could gaze into his eyes so she could see that what he was about to say was the truth. " Hermione, when you are flying with me you should not worry one bit that something might happen to you. Because, I tell you that nothing would ever happen to you while I am nearby. I could not let you go, I love you too much." Harry stopped abruptly when he heard himself say I love you. He did not even mean to say those words, it just seemed so natural. It worried him though. 'Why did I just say that??????????????????? You idiot!!!!!!! What if she does not feel the same way???????????'
Hermione seemed to pick up the fear that flashed across his young face. This time she let out a giggle to settle his nerves and repeated the same words back to him. "Harry you know I love you too and there is nothing you can do or say to change that. I will always love you."
Harry's face relaxed but he had to make sure she had meant those words and had not been joking. "Really? You do?"
"Of course I do" Hermione tilted her head and kissed Harry. Another one of their earth shattering kisses took place.
Finally the love birds pulled apart. Harry glanced outside and saw that the weather was holding up and they should take advantage of their fortune. Well, actually his fortune. Hermione has been praying to God since he suggested flying that a blizzard would just suddenly occur. "Hermione, we better get going now if we want to get any flying in today."
Hermione's heart sank when she saw that he still remembered about flying. She had hoped after that mind blowing kiss that he would forget all about the flying business. The girl's mind was racing at ways to have the stupid flying lessons pushed out of his head. She got it. What if their was a proposition of doing something more appealing to Harry. She got a seductive expression on her face and spoke in her most tantalizing voice. She took her hand and started to graze his chest with her fingers."Oh really? Well I was just thinking that maybe we could do something a little more exciting. I mean wouldn't you rather break in your mattress? If you know what I mean."
Harry let a long laugh and told Hermione. "One, you would not do that. I know you too well to know you are not seriously thinking that would happen. Two, I am ashamed to know that my innocent Hermione would even say a thing like that or has knowledge of phrases like that. Three, that is not going to work. You are not getting out of flying Four, I thought you would think better of me. That I wasn't some sex crazed 20 year old male. "
Hermione laughed at the last part but answered him accordingly."Fine, but I am not as pure and innocent as you are led to believe although you are right that I would never usually say something like that. It's just something I picked up from Lavender and Parvati in Hogwarts. Not to mention I wouldn't go breaking in a bed before I am married."
"You are not getting out that easily though so lets pick out a broom 'kay?" Harry asked uncertainly.
"Fine, fine. I do not think I am going to get out of this anyways so I will do this only if you promise that you will not let anything happen to me?"
"Of course it's all about you. Don't care if I get hurt, just yourself."
"I care about what happens to you its just not likely for anything to happen to the greatest seeker in pro-quidditch. The chances are much more likely that an accident is going to happen with the bookworm who is afraid of flying and is horrible at it than the guy who has been flying for almost 10 years."
"Do not worry. Nothing is going to happen to anybody today. You will not get hurt on the broom or fall or anything like that because I am not going to let it happen. I thought we went through this. So can we please pick out a broom and get outside before it gets dark?" Harry begged.
"Ok. What kind of broom should I pick?"Hermione questioned.
"Well, it depends. I am guessing you do not care about speed that much."
"You are correct in guessing that."
"Probably something reliable and smooth. Not too touchy."
"Once again you are right."
"Then you probably want a nimbus 2000. A year ago I bought another one just for mainly sentimental value, but it is a very good broom. It is fast but will go at whatever speed you want and will not be touchy about it. I promise it will keep you safe. It has never failed me before."
Hermione seemed to perk up some when she heard him say she would be riding a nimbus 2000. There was nothing in particularly special about it but she remembered how reliable that broom was for Harry and how safe it was. That broom seemed to hold special powers or something because it
nothing ever seemed to happen to Harry, well, that was the brooms fault at least, when he was on it.. "What are you going to ride then?" Hermione questioned.
"With my personal favorite the firebolt of course."
"What? Not one of those new top of the line brooms that you spend tons of your money on."
"Those are fine and dandy when I am playing quidditch and need to win but when I am just flying for fun and leisure then I choose the firebolt. It is the broom I am most comfortable on." They both walked over to the corner of the living room to a cupboard which held Harry's numerous brooms.
When Harry opened the door Hermione gasped for she saw probable 20 to 30 brooms. "Why on earth would you need all of those brooms.?"
"Well, some are for playing games with, some are sent to me for free because companies want me to ride on them during one of my games. The rest I have bought just for personal pleasure." Harry told her as he searched through them, finally picking out the two brooms that he wanted. "Now are you ready to go flying Hermione?"
"Not really." Hermione told him truthfully.
Not seeming to care Harry pulled her by the hand outside. "That's to bad. It is about time you got over your fear of flying."
"I think it is healthy for everybody to have some fears."
"Oh well, then you will be unhealthy." He pulled her to a halt when they reached a clearing behind the house.
"Fine" Hermione resigned knowing there was no way out of it as she grabbed her broom from Harry. "What do I do first."
"Well, first climb onto the broom." Harry showed her by swinging his leg over the broom. Hermione followed suit. Harry had to hold back the laugh that was creeping up his throat at the sight of Hermione. She was so stiff and rigid and their was complete and utter fear stamped on her face. He knew that laughing would not please Hermione at all though. "Ok now Hermione you are going to have to relax. If you are rigid and uptight then that is how your broom is going to move. It will be harder to control the broom too. So, just relax and put your hands more like this." He told her as he moved her hands in a more relaxed position.
Hermione tried with all her might to relax her stiff body but the thought of her falling from her broom made her body freeze up even more and her grip to tighten around the broom handle. Then she looked at Harry's eyes as he leaned over to move her hands in the correct way to hold a broom. She saw that he was determined to do this and her thoughts crept back to what he had told her earlier. That nothing was going to happen to her while he was nearby and she believed him with all her heart. With that thought in her brain now she felt her body ease up and become more comfortable.
Harry noticed this and was very pleased that she had relaxed. Hermione was one step closer to becoming a great flyer. "Now Hermione now that you have mastered climbing on a broom along with good posture are you ready to start flying?" Harry asked already knowing the answer.
"No" Hermione told him. "But, I better get this over with"
"That's the spirit. Do not worry. We will go slowly." Harry told her reassuringly. "Now, lets start by kicking off lightly and hovering for a couple seconds and then leaning forward to come back down. Sound okay Hermione?" She nodded meekly so they continued. "On three we will do it together. One...two....three." They both softly kicked off from the snow covered ground and hovered about six feet in the air before leaning forward to land without problem.
Hermione was shocked that she actually went through that and came out of it alive. It did not matter to her that it was only six feet in the air but rather that she had lost contact of solid ground all together. She had been trembling uncontrollably the whole time but some how she had mustered enough courage to go through with it. For most normal wizards it would have been no big deal but for Hermione it was a big accomplishment. Now seeing the success of that she was excited to try again but this time go higher and start moving.
Harry was so proud that Hermione actually went through with it and when they touched back down he saw that her eyes were full of excitement. He could tell it would not be any problem for her to do it again but this time to start moving.
So doing this for about an hour Hermione learned to fly step by step. Finally Harry felt Hermione was ready to actually go flying somewhere. He had the perfect place in mind. It was not far away and it was the perfect time of day to go visiting there.
Hermione was feeling quite comfortable on a broom now and was seeing why Harry seemed to enjoy flying so much. She saw the landscape from a different perspective which gave it an all new beauty which was wonderful. When Harry told her she was ready to actually go flying somewhere she couldn't help to be excited. It was surprising that an hour ago she was deathly afraid of getting on a broom yet now she was looking forward to a small flying journey.
For the most part Harry and Hermione flew side by side each other but spent their time in contented silence, just enjoying each other presence. The flying trip did not take more than ten minutes and they arrived their a little before dark.
Hermione's breath was caught in her throat when they passed over one final hill and their before her was the most beautiful sight. Harry doubled back and landed on the top of the snowy hill and signaled Hermione to follow suit. They plopped down in the snow, not caring if they got soaked to the bone. The two were happy just cuddling close to each other enjoying the gorgeous sight that was set before them.
The sky was a bright pink with orange swirls mixed in it fading to a light purple that darkened to the velvety black sky behind them. The clouds that have remained in the sky were scattered among the rainbow sky. Together they watched the sun set into the horizon and the stars pop out all over the sky above them. It was a magical moment to both of them when it seemed they were the only people in the world and they wanted to keep it that way.
Harry knew it was time to leave when he felt Hermione start to shiver beside him and he felt the coldness seeping through his robes. It was time to head back. Of course flying would only make them colder not to mention it was dangerous flying in the dark when you were inexperienced which is what Hermione was. So he pulled Hermione up, grabbed their brooms and one of Hermione's hands, and apparated to the cottage.
When they arrived back he quickly put his brooms back in his cupboard and pulled Hermione towards her room. "Now Hermione change right away because I do not want you to get sick." Harry pushed Hermione in her room and shut the door.
Being flustered by how fast that had happened she forgot to say thank you for bringing her their. Oh well, she will tell him in minute. Then she thought it was quite stupid of them to sit their in the snow. What if they did get sick. "Harry? You better be changing out of your robes too. I am not the only one that will get sick if they do not get into some dry clothes." Hermione yelled as she rifled through her drawers trying to find some pj's. She finally found a t-shirt and flannel pj bottoms.
Once she was all warm and cozy for bed she went back to Harry's room. She was happy to see He had changed into some warm pajamas and was now sitting down on the floor wrapped in a blanket staring into the fire he was sitting by. Hermione could stare at him forever. She loved how the glowing fire lighted up his face which, now that she had to chance to study it, looked so much more peaceful and content. She was happy to see that he was happy.
Hermione walked silently up behind Harry and leaned over to hug him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Harry jumped slightly for he did not hear her walk into the room. Hermione giggled when she saw Harry jump. She walked in front of him and sat down between Harry's legs and leaned onto Harry's chest. Her head just came under Harry's chin. He wrapped his arms and the blanket around him and Hermione leaving them both very warm and comfy.
Hermione broke the silence that had encompassed. "Thank you for bringing me to that place today. It was really lovely."
"I love going there some nights to unwind from a hard game. I shouldn't have brought you there though. Watch, you are going to get sick now."
"I do not really care. It was a nice thought and I really enjoyed myself. Anyways, If I get sick you will probably get sick." Hermione laughed which in turn made Harry laugh.
They enjoyed talking for a while in happiness staring into the warm crackling fire. Soon they both started yawning and felt fatigue creep over them from the long and exhausting day. They stood up and Hermione was about to walk over to her bedroom when Harry pulled her beside him into his bed. Hermione of course did not mind sleeping with Harry as long as they did nothing more than sleeping which was the same as what Harry was thinking. They fell asleep once again in the warm comfort of each others arms. And like predicted in the middle of the night both Harry and Hermione started to sniffle in their sleep although they did not notice it tell the morning.
A/N. Ok so there is another chapter and if I might say I am proud of it. It took me while because its long and I had to write it in pieces. Thank you to all the reviewers out there. One more and I have had sixty which I am extremely grateful for such great readers. If you want go read my other story go ahead but unless I get more reviewers on it I might delete it. I also might write another H/H story that has been in my head for awhile. Also I am probably going to post a roswell story. M/M forever baby! But that one I just have to type because I wrote it in a notebook and kind of rewrite it some since I wrote it two years ago. On top of all that I have to do lots of stuff with the doctors because I have been sick for a while and I think I might have diabetes or something like that. So, I just wanted to tell you all of this so you know that I am very busy and that is why I am not posting as often as I would like. I do not have writers block and I am planning on continuing the story so do not fear. I will try not to neglect the story too much. Ok that was a long authors note but I felt I needed to get that out there. So thank you and keep r/r.
