Note: That schedule a few chapters ago, the Wednesday classes, I've moved
up an hour, so Harry has a free period, then those classes, Hermione has
the same.
Chapter43
Harry and Hermione again avoided the rumor and Sirius, running away from encounters with either, avoiding it at all costs. Until (?maybe?).
Tuesday Anamagus class* When they entered Sirius said he'd like to speak to them after class, they both thought oh no, oh no, oh no, and tried there hardest on concentrating on changing each other into animals, their animal forms to be exact.
The three hours went by way too quickly for either Harry or Hermione's liking. The bell rang and the class emptied, except for Harry, Hermione and Sirius.
"You have a free period, Wednesday mornings, right?"
"Yeah, we do," Hermione replied, relief spreading over her as well as Harry.
"Because both of you have multiple forms, if we have class Wednesdays as well, you'll be able to hopefully master all of your forms, you both look relieved, as if expecting the worst, does this have something to do with that rumor?"
"What rumor?" Hermione asked. Harry just gave him a quizzical look.
"Never mind, I'll let you know, when we have our first Wednesday class, alright?"
"Yep," Harry said, while Hermione nodded. The two slipped out, when halfway down the hall Harry said, "That was close." "Yes, a little too close," Hermione seconded.
Two weeks later, it seemed as if most had forgotten about Malfoy's 'Ridiculas' rumor, or that's what some called it, others just thought, whoever thought that one up is a complete idiot. No one spoke of it, or at least not in Harry or Hermione's presence. 'Thank god that's over,' they thought, but boy were they wrong, as they'd find out in the next few days.
It was Wednesday morning, the day Sirius had scheduled for his first class, with Harry and Hermione, two weeks since the mention of an extra class. They were ten minutes late, 'where are they?' Sirius thought, 'five more minutes, then I'll go find them, could they still be asleep, or did they forget?' Where are they? Could there cover be blown?
Sirius went to the library, neither there, then the great hall, nada(nothing) again, then to their dorms, using their password, "rumors," how fitting, eh? He went through the common room and up the stairs. Sirius knocked on Harry's door, slightly ajar, he walked in, "Oh my god! What's going on here?" he yelled, seeing Harry and Hermione sleeping in the same bed. Harry and Hermione were abruptly awoken by the yell, Harry sat up, put on his glasses, looked at Sirius and said, "Uh-oh."
"Boy are you right, uh-oh, what the hell is going on here?" Sirius yelled. "Nothing," Hermione said sitting up. "Both of you get dressed and be in that common room in five minutes," Sirius commanded. "Hermione, I'm sorry if he kills me," Harry said changing from his pajamas. "Why?" she asked, also changing (on the other side of the room, the four poster hangings, blocking each other from view). "Because we were caught sleeping in the same bed, I think that's worse then being caught kissing, what do you think?" "I agree, I hope he doesn't kill us, or my parents kill us, we better get down there, though." "Right," and the two walked down to their common room to face the possible wrath of Sirius.
"Sit down," Sirius said as the duo entered the common room.
"Now can either of you explain, what is going on here?" Silence. "What neither of you can tell me whether your together, or one of you had a nightmare , or whatever?" Silence, both looking feeling really guilty.
"I guess I can presume by the silence that it's not the latter, am I right?" The two nodded.
"So are you dating, or fooling around?"
Both were outraged by his suggestion, "We're dating Sirius," Harry said.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"We were afraid," Hermione answered.
"Why?"
"We didn't know how you'd react," Harry answered.
"You do know, that you getting together was a prediction hope of myself, Remus, Ron, Lavender, and many others, right?"
"What!" Harry exclaimed shocked.
"Really?" Hermione asked, also in shock.
"Really, why else would Ron and Lavender try so hard to get you together, they were trying to get you to see the obvious," Sirius explained.
"I did feel something, last Febuary when we kissed," Harry said softly.
"You guys kissed! After that date last Febuary?" Sirius exclaimed/asked.
"Yeah, after our date, Harry promised we'd go out again," Hermione said.
"Did you ever go on that date?"
"No, unless you count the ball, but Hermione asked me, so it doesn't count," Harry said.
"So how, when did you get together?" Sirius asked.
"Christmas," Hermione started.
"By the lake," Harry finished.
"How?" Sirius asked.
"Harry told me he loved me, and I told him I love him back," Hermione said smiling at Harry, Harry smiling back.
"Has anyone known these past, what almost two months?"
"Yeah, Hagrid, Ron, and Lavender," Hermione answered.
"How?" Sirius asked.
"Hagrid saw us on Christmas, by the lake, Ron and Lavender found me in Hermione's closet." Harry answered.
"Why were you in the closet?" Sirius asked.
"Hiding from Ron and Lavender," Harry said sheepishly.
"Oh, I'm just so glad it finally happened," Sirius said happily as he pulled the two into a hug.
"How long had you been expecting it?" Harry asked.
"Oh, only about three years."
"Fifth year?" Hermione asked.
"Yeah, that's when it became overly obvious." Sirius said.
"But she was going with Krum then," Harry said.
"So, it was still obvious, everyone saw but you two."
"Maybe that's why Viktor said what he did when we split up?" Hermione said, questioned.
"What he'd say?" Harry asked.
"He said, when we broke up that it was for the best, because there was someone I should be with, just didn't know it yet," Hermione explained.
"Professor Trelawnry's prediction!" Harry exclaimed.
"What prediction, Harry?" Hermione asked.
"The one I kept between Sirius and myself, that said I'd find love as my parents did, Sirius, were my parents good friends before they got together?"
"Yeah, they were good friends, obvious to everyone but themselves."
"Like us, huh, just we're best friends," Hermione said.
"Exactly," Sirius said, "And don't worry about your parents wanting to kill Harry, I'll kill him for them, if you guys do something your not supposed to."
"Sirius!" they both yelped.
"Did you ever think of that?" Harry asked.
"No, you?" Hermione asked back.
"Nooo," Harry answered.
"Good, the threat stands, though," Sirius said, breaking the awkwardness, "Next Wednesday will be our first Wednesday class, so don't forget, have fun in your first class." When he was almost to the door, he turned and questioned,
"Are you going public?"
"I guess so," Harry answered.
"No use hiding the obvious," Hermione seconded.
"See you Sirius, thanks for not killing us," they said together.
"Your welcome, love birds, now you better head to your first class, don't want the head boy and girl to be late, now do we, bye," Sirius called back.
After that Sirius practically ran to Remus's classroom, and waited outside until class was over. After the students filed out, Sirius bolted into the classroom.
"Remus, Remus it's true!"
"What's true? Come into my office?"
"Harry and Hermione!"
"That's just a rumor, Sirius."
"No, I went to get them, because they didn't come to class this
morning, they told me after I walked in on them."
"What were they doing, Sirius?"
"Sleeping."
"What's so odd about that?"
"In the same bed!"
"Oh."
"No, not that, fully clothed."
"How long have they been together?"
"Since Christmas."
"Really, wow, they kept it a secret that long."
"Maybe not, that rumor?"
"Was started by a Slytherin."
"Really, who?"
"Malfoy."
"That stupid git, who's a ferret?"
"Yep, you do know his dad was Voldemort's right hand man, right?"
"Yeah, I knew."
"I heard, Harry and Hermione combined have taken around a hundred
points off Slytherin, because of him, so far this year."
"I'm glad to hear it."
"So am I."
"You know that in the first match of the season, Harry beat that git
to the snitch."
"Yeah, but did you know, Harry's never lost to Slytherin?"
"Yeah, but that match against Hufflepuff, that was insane."
"I know, what was the punishment for that kid?"
"One hundred and fifty points off Hufflepuff, a month of detentions,
and he can't play for the rest of the season."
"That hurts, but he deserves it."
"What do you think of Gryffindors next match, versus Ravenclaw, you
know if they win they've got the cup?"
"I like their chances, Ron's damn good at keeper, when he's on his
broom, the beater's are great, Harry's missed what one snitch in six
years of play?"
"Yeah, third year, versus Hufflepuff, Diggory, Harry got knocked off
his broom."
"And those chasers, amazing, who would have thought Neville, so clumsy
on the ground to be that great on a broom, and that Julie Wood, she
could be a superstar, she's amazing."
"Her brother, Oliver is starting keeper for Puddlemore."
"And Hermione, who would have thought she'd be awesome on a broom?"
"She did date Krum, for about a year."
"She said what he said when they broke up."
"What?"
"He said there was someone she should be with, just didn't know it
yet."
"He meant Harry, huh?"
"I'm pretty sure, wow, even her ex-boyfriend saw the obvious."
"I know, they were oblivious."
"Until, that date last Febuary."
"Date?"
"Yeah, the blind date, set up by Ron and Lavender, they kissed
afterwards, but kept it a secret until today, and didn't admit their
feelings until Christmas."
"Wow, Harry could face down Voldemort, but couldn't tell his best
friend, how he felt?"
"Can you really blame him?"
"No, I was terrified of asking a girl out, when I was a teenager."
Woo-Hoo, Sirius knows. Innocent will be updated soon, as will this again. Love those reviews. -ears91
