It feels so sweet, like dreaming

Softly calling

2 this sweet temptation

Harry watched Jamie, Lexi, and Caprice on the couch laughing. That boy reminded him of Draco, and he couldn't get it off his mind. It was inevitable. Hermione stood behind him with her arms crossed. She wasn't half listening to the children. She was just trying to figure out why she half gave into Harry.
She always hated when that happened. She would want to stay away from a person or be mad at them and then they would weave themselves back into her good side. Hermione never wanted them to, they just did.
She didn't even realize that Harry had gone to sit at the kitchen table. He conjured up himself a bowl of fruit loops and dug in. Hermione was about to join him when she heard someone in the other room mention Hogwarts. She rushed to the doorway and listened quietly.
"My parents are sending me to Hogwarts next year." Caprice told the two. Lexi and Jamie seemed amazed. They shifted on the couch so they could get a better view of Caprice.
"I wish I could go to Hogwarts. It sounds amazing." Jamie said wistfully. He flopped his head back onto the cotton filled headrest and sighed. Jamie had always been a drama king…
At that moment Hermione spun around and speedily sat down on the table.
"Were you listening too?" Harry asked quietly, still staring into the bowl of bright colors. Hermione nodded her head slowly.
"You have to send her, you know." He told her as he sifted out all the blue circles and shoved them in him mouth. Harry would always eat one color at a time in the order of the rainbow.
"Harry, what are you talking about?" She said, acting clueless.
"Hogwarts, Herm. Lexi needs Hogwarts" He said calmly.
"No, Harry, She doesn't." She told him forcefully. She stood up and stomped across the room to the window over the sink. She always stood there and looked out when she needed to calm down.
"Yes she does, and you know it. You've got to let her go, Hermione, you've got to let her go." He was even getting more forceful with her.
Hermione shook her head and sighed. "I don't want to be alone." She told him softly.
"But you're not alone. You can't hold onto her forever. She just turned 13 less than a month ago. You have to let her be on her own." He told her, as he vanished his empty bowl.
"I know Harry, I know. It's just that, she's all I've had for almost thirteen years, and I don't want to give her up." A tear came to her left eye and she blinked it away. Harry got up and walked over to her.
"I know you don't, but there are a lot of things in life that you don't want to do. He put his hand on her shoulder. Everything all of a sudden flew at the speed of light through her mind. She tried to bolt up to her room but Harry was faster. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
"Harry-"
"No, Hermione, tell me what's going on." He told her, still holding her wrist lightly.
"I-I don't know." She tried to pull away again but he pulled her back into his arms and held her so she couldn't get away.
"Herm, I know you know. Tell me." His face was inches away from hers and he could hear her ragged breath.
"I- I didn't want- I didn't want you to abandon me or Lexi." She told him quietly and looked at the floor. He looked at her softly and used his left hand to lift her head back up to face him.
"I would never abandon you, or Lexi. I love you guys too much." He told her, looking intently into her chocolate brown eyes. Hermione's eyes widened slightly.
"Y-You love Lexi?" She whispered. Harry chuckled.
"I loved her from the moment I found out that she was my daughter. How could I not?" He smiled. He watched Hermione's eyes fill with tears.
"I don't know what to say." She said as her voice cracked. Harry took a deep breath and gathered up his courage.
"Don't say anything." He told her quietly. He stared into her beautiful eyes and leaned forward slightly. She was still in his arms and only inches from his face.
That's when she decided to give in. At first her mind told her to resist him, but it was no use, and there was no reason to. He lightly pressed his lips onto hers. Hermione breathed slightly and kissed him back with vigor. She leaned her head forward and moved her delicate fingers up to the nape of his neck.
He ran his hand down her back. Standing up to her tiptoes, she made it easier for him so he didn't have to reach down so far. They slowly pulled apart sadly as he smiled at her.
"Now, see, that wasn't so bad, was it?" He asked her quietly.
"No, it wasn't so awful." She smirked at him.

Caprice got up and went to go into the kitchen to get drinks for the three of them. She started into the kitchen but ran back to the couch at the speed of light.
Her eyes widened and she began biting her tounge.
"Sono in modo da embarrased! Non era la mia intenzione rompere in su
quel momento del intamite!! Non ho fatto media a! nessun didnt di i!" Caprice rambled at a fast pace.
The only words Lexi caught was embarrassed and intimate.
"Whoa, slow down! What?" Jamie asked, extremely confused.
"Your-your mother and Harry Potter! They are kissing in the kitchen!" Lexi just sat there dumbfounded as Jamie burst out laughing and eventually fell off the couch onto the white shag carpet.
Caprice expected Lexi to freak out and run upstairs, but she did worse. She fainted…
