The One I Can't Ignore
A/N: Alright! Onto chapter numero 5! XD I'm glad to see you all didn't hate the last chapter, but I'm planning on making this one more eventful *i HOPE*. Enjoy it!
Harry was sleeping peacefully in his bed. He was happy lying amongst the fluffy white covers while the morning sun danced lazily on his face. He was busy dreaming of, well, typical teenage guy things (A/N: being a teenage girl I wouldn't really know all of it :P). Suddenly, his bed started shaking violently and, since he was blind without his glasses, didn't know the cause.
"EARTHQUAKE!!!" He shouted, bolting upright. He heard a scream and watched a blurry figure fall backwards and land on the end of his bed. He reached for his glasses and saw a young teenage girl with busy hair staring dazed at him.
"What was that for?!" Hermione shouted, panting.
"Bloody hell! You scared me! How would I know you would come in here and start jumping on the bed to wake me up?!"
Hermione giggled, "I have to admit, you looked really funny all scared like that."
"Oh shut up!" Harry chucked a pillow at the girl. It caught her off guard and hit her square in the head. She squealed and proceeded to throw the offending pillow back at him, and in no time a full-fledged pillow fight had started. Harry tripped and fell, landing on his back. Before he knew what was going on, Hermione was standing over him, pelting the young wizard with blow after blow from the pillow.
"C'mon Harry say you surrender!" The busy haired witch grinned at him.
"No way!" Harry had a better way of getting her to back off-which would damage her dignity instead of his. "Y'know Herms, I can see up your skirt."
Hermione screamed and jumped away, holding her skirt against her legs. Harry laughed.
"Oh, you are SO dead Harry James Potter!" Hermione lunged at him, but Harry flung open the door and bounded down the stairs and into the kitchen before Hermione could catch him.
"Ah! Harry! I've just made breakfast, sit down." Harry sat down and dug into the plateful of pancakes and sausage infront of him. It felt good to have real meals for a change.
Hermione, in a huffle, sat down beside Harry and muttered "I'll get you......"
"Hermione dear, it's so nice out today. Why don't you go make use of the pool in the backyard?"
"That sounds nice, I quite fancy a swim." Harry smirked. "Besides," he muttered very quietly so only Hermione could hear him, "I've never seen Hermione in a swimsuit before-I'd kinda like to see what's under all those baggy clothes of hers."
"HARRY!" Hermione screamed, throwing her napkin at him. He chuckled and cleared his plate.
"I'll go change, I'll meet you outside Herms."
Harry, like most guys, was wading in the pool long before Hermione had even finished changing. When he heard Hermione's footsteps, he hid against the side of the pool, waiting.
"Harry! Where are you! I heard you splashing a moment ago! Don't hide from me, it's rude!!" He heard her standing quite close above him, he knew he could get her now.
Harry grabbed Hermione's ankle and shouted, "Gotcha!" and yanked her into the pool.
"ARGH! HARRY!"
But Harry wasn't laughing anymore. He was staring at the sight of Hermione....in her swimsuit...and wet.
"Harry, are you alright? You're all red." Hermione swam up to her friend and pressed her hand against his forehead. She didn't seem to realize how close she was to him, but Harry sure could.
'Oh. My. God. Are all girls breasts this soft? She's so close to me right now..... Wait, what am I thinking?! This is Hermione we're talking about!!! My best friend! Snap out of it Harry, stop letting your hormones get the best of you!' Harry shook his head and gently pushed Hermione's hand away from his face. "I'm fine. I promise. Let's just enjoy swimming!"
"Alright!" Hermione backed away and then hit Harry with a full-on splash.
"Oh you're gonna get it!" Harry dove under the cool, clear water and swam quickly towards Hermione. She squealed and, being near the edge, jumped out. Harry followed closely behind. "Hey no fair Herms! You're supposed to stay IN the pool!"
"Oh? Since when did you make up the rules?" 'Wow, those years of Quidditch sure have payed off. He's so toned.....I never realized it. Then again, it's hard to see anything when he's wearing Dudley's old clothes. But wow, he looks good! Wait, what are you thinking woman! This IS your best friend you're talking about, isn't it? You shouldn't be looking at him that way!' (A/N: Ooo, deja vu eh? Hehe)
Hermione suddenly realized that she had stopped running while she was goggling over Harry. He was heading straight for her.
"GOTCHA AGAIN!" Harry lunged at a squealing Hermione and, wrapping his arms around her, they both fell into the icy pool water. They came to the surface together, Hermione gasping for air. Harry was laughing hysterically.
"What's so funny?! It's not nice to laugh when someone is out of breath!" She realized that Harry was still hugging her, but she didn't want to say anything quite yet....
"I'm sorry Hermione, it's just....did you put on any makeup this morning?"
Hermione's eyes went wide, "Oh crap! It must be running all down my face now!" Hermione started to swim away but Harry grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"Just stand still and close your eyes." Hermione did as she was told, and she felt Harry wiping her eyes with his thumb. He was so gentle with his touch. It's funny how someone who could be so gentle was also so powerful, so emotionally, physically, and magically strong (well, except when it came to Potions with Snape). "There, all gone. Now you don't look like a scary raccoon anymore."
"Shut up!" Hermione playfully slapped Harry against the arm, and they went back to swimming and splashing each other.
After dinner, Harry and Hermione decided to watch an all-night Mr. Bean marathon (I love that guy).
After 1AM, Mrs. Granger came downstairs. "Cmon kids, come upstairs to bed."
"No, we're going to stay and watch this till the end!" Hermione raised her fist in triumph.
2 hours later though, they were both struggling to stay awake. Hermione was shivering-sure it was nice and warm during the day but by night it had gotten chilly.
"I'll go get a blanket for you," Harry suggested, "Just in the hallway closet right?" Hermione nodded.
Harry returned, gently wrapping the blanket around Hermione. She was still shivering. "Jeez Hermione what are you, cold blooded?" Harry sighed. He pulled the blanket off of Hermione and wrapped it around both of them instead. Inside the blanket, Harry wrapped his arms tightly around Hermione and held her close. "Better?" Hermione nodded at him. Good thing it was dark, Harry couldn't see her face burning pink. It was so nice and warm, and the steady sound of his heart was lulling Hermione slowly to sleep. Not that that was a bad thing, but still. It was so tempting though.
Harry was obviously having the same though, because soon they were both sleeping soundly on the couch.
A/N: So how did you like it? Pure H+H fluff, eh? Alright. PLEASE READ THIS IT IS IMPORTANT!!!! I'M GOING ON VACATION JULY 31ST THROUGH TILL THE 16TH OF AUGUST! I won't be adding more chapters during that time *duh* and, depending on my schedule the week back, it may be longer before a new chapter comes out. I was really hoping to finish this before school starts but it doesn't look like I'm going to. Then again, I might go on a writing binge and finish it in like 4 days, but who knows. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I look forward to hearing from you when I get back!
