Chapter 11

A/N Okay my Microsoft Word Document always screws up so no more bad reviews about bad setup, it is not my fault. I am not stupid, I know how to write. I am writing differently with extra spaces to see if it works. Sorry if it doesn't. R/R thanks!
Harry and Magda made their way down to the lake where they decided to take a stroll.

"So," Magda began.

"So," Harry said.

There was an awkward silence at which Harry wished he was anyway else. He decided to come out and say it.

"Why did you kiss me?" he asked.

She looked at him helplessly. He felt a little flutter in his stomach, a lot like the one he felt with Cho Chang.

"I like you," she said. "A lot," she added.

Harry felt happy, maybe he liked Magda? It was probable. Why not?

Harry found himself saying the words he never should have, "I like you too."

Magda instantly became happier and Harry put on a smile. This felt good, this felt right?

Harry decided to approach the Hermione subject.

"Hermione is upset with me, because of you," he said slowly.

She looked confused.

"Me?" she asked.

"Yeah, she saw you kiss me. That day I had told her that you and I were just friends and them-"he stopped.

"Oh," was what Magda said.

A minute went by and Harry was sure that Magda was thinking about a way to solve his Hermione problem but when she spoke she said, "So are we going together now?"

Harry was a little taken back. He didn't know, he really didn't care. He really did like Magda a lot enough to be her boyfriend, but what about Hermione? He needed a solution.

"Yeah?" he said smiling hoping this was the right answer.

Magda started jumping up and down, she was smiling. She hugged Harry and ran off. So there was Harry, alone, at the lake. He sat down.

"Hermione, Hermione, Hermione," he said over and over.

"Hey," said a voice. It was Ron.

"Oh hi Ron, did you hear the news? Magda and I are going out," Harry said rather dully.

Ron looked scared.

"But Hermione?" he asked.

"I really like Magda. But she just sorta popped the question and I said yeah. I am so stupid!" Harry said.

"No, you will just have to tell Hermione," Ron said.

"Well, hello Mr. Malorri, or is she changing her name?" and icy voice said.

It was Hermione.

She looked expectant. When Harry moved his mouth but was at loss for words she rolled her eyes disgustedly and walked off.

Harry held his head low, "Looks like she knows."
Later that night in the Common Room...
They were all poured over books in hopes they would finish their homework before tomorrow's classes.

"I wish classes were cancelled tomorrow," Magda said as she dropped her quill.

A moment later Professor McGonagal came in.

"Students, classes tomorrow are cancelled due to, um" She looked as if she didn't know, "cancellation?" she finished.

It didn't matter the reason, the students screamed and danced.

Magda looked satisfied.

Harry turned to Ron and whispered, "Now the students will stay up late, I will never be able to talk to Hermione."

Ron shrugged; he didn't know what to do either. At round 11:30 all the students were awake and hyper. Hermione got up and walked out of the Common Room, Harry took this opportunity to follow her.

"Hermione!" he called out.

She turned around.

"Look, I didn't kiss her," he said quickly.

"Ah yes, you're right, your face are attached at the faces, how silly of me to think differently," she said, she was clearly livid.

"She kissed me!" he stressed.

Her face immediately softened.

"Hermione I'm sorry, I didn't invite her up there. I was waiting for you and she came and threw herself at me, and then you came in," he explained.

"Really?" she said whispering.

Harry nodded.

They were not speaking for a moment and then Harry hugged her. She hugged back. It was different from hugging Magda. Magda was beautiful face, but Hermione had a beautiful face and a body to go with it. He stopped thinking about that remembering he was not a free man. They let go.

"I missed you," he said.

"Yeah, but you had Ron, I had no one," she said.

Harry felt like hitting himself very hard, Hermione had been lonely, that hurt.

"I'm sorry," he said.

"Me too."

"So," Hermione started, "you and Magda."

"Yeah," he said.

"Let's not ever talk about her ok?" she decided.

Harry was a little hurt, he thought Hermione liked Magda. But he agreed.

"Let's take a walk to the kitchens," Hermione suggested.

"Okay," Harry answered.

They walked to the kitchens cautiously, not wanting to be caught.

But before they got there they decided to walk around. They wanted to talk about setting Ron up with some Ravenclaw as a joke.

But then they saw a light coming from Professor McGonagall's office. There were voices.

"He wants the Green Emerald," one said.

Another said, "If he believes old rumors then he will come here!"

"He is coming," another stressed.

"We must take action," came the voice of Professor Flitwick.

"Settle down, this meeting must cease. Teachers, return to your rooms. It is late." This was Professor Dumbledore.

Harry and Hermione looked at the doorway to the room and every one of Hogwarts's teachers walked out including Professor Dumbledore...

Harry and Hermione looked at each other.
