Hermione walked into the great hall, she had a sense of foreboding and
excitement. Yes, this was a new year, a year that will bring change and
growth. Hermione walked in with her head held high, she was going to make
this year all she wanted it to be and worrying over taking chances will be
little to none.
Hermione eagerly looked around to see if she could find her fellow Gryffindor friends. Not seeing Harry or Ron, Hermione quickly took a seat at the end of the table. She couldn't help think that the sun rise this morning reflected her new beginning. Her summer had been fun and slightly intense. Her new feelings had been giving her a rather hard time. She just wasn't sure how she should approach her blooming love. Hermione had never been in a real relationship before not counting her brief courtship with Viktor Krum for some reason she can only feel inadequate in the relationship department. But she knew for certain that she was madly and deeply in love with..
"Hermione, are you ok?" asked Ginny as she waved her hand in front of Hermione's face.
Hermione snapped out of her daydream thoughts and smiled up at Ginny. "Of course why wouldn't I be?" Hermione said with a tilt of her head. "Can you believe it's a brand new year, there is so many possibilities don't you think."
"Yea I know what you mean. I feel like it was just yesterday when I was a scared little first year in front of the sorting hat. Hermione, can I tell you a secret?" inquired Ginny.
"Anytime you know its safe with me, so do tell Gin" said Hermione with a sudden heightened interest.
Ginny let out a deep breath and looked around to make sure no one else was listening. "I have a crush on Seamus." Hermione watched as Ginny turned a deep shade of red as she let out her love confession.
"Hermione, you must have a crush on some too or a secret romance. You know you can tell me." Ginny raised her eyebrow and leaned in to hear who she likes.
Hermione started to feel her face burn and her stomach flutter. She knew she could tell Ginny and feel complete relief from having held in her secret love for so long, but as Hermione started to open her mouth, Ron and Harry plop down at the table beside her. Hermione was relieved and upset at the same time. Perfect timing I suppose, thought Hermione. Her palms started to sweat as she felt his warmth beside him. Hermione let out an audible sigh.
"Are you alright, Hermione?" Harry asked.
"Um, yes, never been better" Hermione could feel her face burn again and tried to look away. Ron and Harry started talking about some Quidditch player and Ginny started talking to Lavender. Hermione took this time to relish the feeling of sitting next to the man she loves. She could smell his soap and wanted to lean in and run her hands through his hair. Hermione wanted to confess her love and let him know how much he needs her. She wanted to brush her lips gently and sweetly across his and show him how much she loves him. She wanted look into his eyes and read his thoughts. Hermione was so deep in thought that she didn't hear Ron talking to her.
Hermione tried to make herself focus on what he was saying. "What did you say Ron," she said with a slight shake of her head.
"Hermione its time for Potions, we need to hurry or we'll be late." With that the school year began. What Hermione didn't know was that this was going to be the worst and best year of her life.
