I know, it hasn't been two days, but I got a really good idea from Andrea and wanted to go with it. Please keep reviewing, I need to know how I'm doing or I might just not have the will to write. J/k (Or am I?) R&R!
Chapter Eight: The Make-Up
PREVIOUSLY:
"What is her problem?" Harry asked suddenly. "HER problem? Okay, she was a little cold, but what was the first thing you said when she walked in the door? You just turned around and started telling me about Cho." (I didn't write this before, you had to find this out now, and no, it wasn't an error) Harry looked down. "You were talking about how Cho owled you, and asked you out, and of course you said yes, but you told me that whole story before you even said 'hi' to Hermione. Why would you do that?." The truth was, Harry didn't even know. "Other than not saying 'hi' to Hermione the first thing I did when I saw her, what does this have to do with Cho?" Ron sighed. "I can't tell you."
Hermione got up and started pacing. Hermione, kind of talking to herself, but kind of talking to Ginny said: "What am I supposed to do, I can't be falling in love with my best friend, can I?" Hermione put her hand over her mouth. Had she just admitted to herself and Ginny that she was in love with the Harry Potter?
"What do you mean you can't tell me?" Harry said, getting agitated. "I'm not supposed to tell." Ron said, holding his ground. Harry stood up and walked over to Ron. "If you have a right to know, then I have a right to know!" Ron stood up. "Harry, why don't YOU go ask HER yourself!!!" Ron stomped out of the room and slammed the door.
Ginny walked over to Hermione and whispered in her ear. "It's about time." Ginny walked Hermione over to the window seat and patted her back. Hermione just sat there, eyes wide. She had admitted this to herself before, but every time she had convinced herself it was a silly school-girl crush, or lust, never love. "Go and talk to him." Ginny stood Hermione up and gave her a push. Hermione walked to the door and hesitated. "Go." She heard Ginny say.
Everything was kind of a blur as she walked down the hall to where Harry was. She knocked on Ron's door and heard Harry say 'come in'. She opened the door. Harry didn't even look up. Hermione walked over to him and sat on the edge of the bed. Harry scooted the other way. Hermione started to say 'Harry', but was cut off. "Hermione, I think I'd just like to be alone right now.
I'm writing to Cho, give me ten minutes. Whatever you have to say can wait." Harry said, without ever looking up from his book. Hermione was about to cry and ran out of the room. She ran out to the tree and climbed. She was amazed by how good it looked now, before there was hardly a comfortable place to sit. Back in the room Harry was trying hard not to smack himself in the head. He just wanted time to think. He just needed time.
Ron ran in the room. "What the hell did you do, Hermione ran out the door, crying." Ron walked over to Harry and waved his hand in front of him. "Harry?" Harry just sat there for about thirty seconds and then said: "I've got to do something, I love her." Not even realizing what he'd just admitted to Ron and himself and ran down the stairs and out the door.
He ran full sprint to the tree and climbed up the ladder. He found a very sad Hermione just standing the with her head hanging and tears falling to the ground. Hermione just kept starring at the ground, not even noticing that Harry was there. Harry walked over to her and put his hand under her chin.
He pushed her head up. "Hermione." He said, for no particular reason, except to get her attention. He leaned into her and kissed her, right on the lips. To Hermione, time stood still. She saw fireworks. Her dream came back to her and she smiled into the kiss. Harry was also seeing fireworks, and finally letting himself fall for his best friend. They kissed for what seemed like hours, but in reality was only a minute or so.
They broke apart and just stared at each other. Harry was the first to look down. Hermione walked over to the hammock and sat down in it. "Harry?" Hermione asked. Harry turned around, he was blushing. "Yes?" Harry asked her. "What does this mean?" Hermione, always one to ask questions. Harry walked over and sat beside her. "I don't know."
They just sat there for a long time staring at the stars in the sky. Hermione turned to Harry and said, "Harry, what about Cho?" Hermione asked this, as if almost knowing what his answer would be and frowned. Harry turned and smiled at her. He looked in her eyes and said something Hermione would have NEVER expected. "Cho who?" Harry asked and kissed her again. They sat there for so long they fell asleep in each others arms.
(A/N: This might seem very fast for some of you, but they admitted to themselves they were in love with each other, just wait until tomorrow.)
