Missing Piece

Chapter 6

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters. That honor belongs to J.K. Rowling.

A/N: Hello everyone! I'm back with the 6th chapter. First of all I would like to thank all of you for waiting patiently and secondly I'd like to say thank you to all of you who reviewed. I'd also like to apologize in advance about this chapter being quite short. Ok and now here is the 6th chapter of Missing Piece.

Harry stared blankly at me as I pushed Oliver off.

"Harry," I began but he interrupted me.

"What the bloody hell were you doing?!" He yelled.

"Harry. It's not what you think." I said calmly.

"Not you Hermione. I was talking to Wood." Harry snapped and turned his attention to Oliver.

"What?" Oliver questioned.

"You heard me god damn it! What the fuck were you doing! Harry bellowed.

Oliver remained silent but returned Harry's cold gaze.

"I asked you a question Wood." Harry repeated and tried to lift himself out of bed.

"Harry don't!" I said in a panic. "Don't get up Harry. You need to rest. You just woke up."

"I think three days of rest is good enough don't you think?" Harry said and looked at me.

"But Harry!" I objected. "Look, you just got out of your coma, you need to stay put."

But Harry didn't listen to me but merely returned his attention back to Oliver.

"Well I asked you a question Wood." Harry said, repeating himself for the third time.

"What did it look like I was doing?" Oliver said directly to Harry. "I was kissing my girlfriend."

"Well to me it looked like you were forcing yourself on her." Harry snapped angrily.

"What?" Oliver said confused.

"I know what Hermione said to you. In fact for the past three days I've been awake. Physically I might have been asleep but I was mentally awake." Harry said. "I heard everything."

"You," I stuttered, "you heard, everything?"

Harry nodded at me and gazed into my eyes. There was something different in the way he looked at me but I couldn't put my finger on it.

"Harry," I began but he interrupted me again.

"We can talk later Hermione." He said, and gave me a smile that I haven't seen for the longest time. I nodded silently.

Harry turned his attention, once more back to Oliver and they stared at each other for a few minutes before Oliver spoke.

"You lost your chance Harry."

"I didn't lose anything Wood." Harry said coldly.

"She's mine." Oliver said. "She's with me now."

I don't belong to anyone! I thought as my anger began to rise.

"You don't own her." Harry snapped and glared at Oliver.

"True." Oliver admitted. "But its better she's with me then with you."

"Said who? You can't speak for Hermione's behalf!" Harry yelled.

Oliver smirked and glanced at me.

"I know, but the thing is I know what's better for her."

This sentence made my blood boil and I could no longer control my anger.

"You don't know anything." I snapped at Oliver.

"But I do Hermione." Oliver said sweetly but this only made me disgusted.

"And how would you know?" I said coolly.

"Because, because I just do. Trust me on this Hermione. "

"NO!" I interjected. "I won't listen to anything you say."

"Hermione," Oliver said calmly. "he doesn't deserve you."

"You don't deserve me." I said and Oliver stared at me for a few seconds before sighing.

"Hermione he's with Katie."

I took a step back and whispered; "What?"

"It's true Hermione." Oliver said.

"No it's not Hermione he's lying." Harry replied.

"Don't lie Harry. I know what you and Katie have been doing."

"Harry what's he talking about?" I said desperately and walked over to his bedside.

"He's talking nonsense." Harry said and held my hand.

I nodded my head and looked into Harry's emerald eyes.

"Am I?" Oliver said. "If I recall just a few nights ago or more specifically the night before the Falcons match, I distinctly heard Katie moaning your name, in the room next to me Harry."

I removed my hand from Harry's grasp.

"It's not true right Harry?" I said and tried to look at him but he avoided my gaze. "Harry look at me!" I yelled.

He stared at me but didn't say a word.

"Is what Oliver's saying true? "I demanded.

Harry took a silent deep breath and continued to look at me.

"Is it?" I yelled at him.

Harry bit his lip nervously and starred intently at me, as if he were trying to explain something to me through our gaze. He dropped his head after a few minutes and I knew by his action what the answer was.

"You did." I stated in a hurtful tone.

"I'm sorry Hermione." Harry mumbled. "I hoped that-"

"That what Harry? That I would never find out?" I snapped angrily.

"No. That you would forgive me." He said and I remained silent. "I was hoping I could tell you what happened and explain it all to you, but from the way you're looking at me. I know I'll never get the chance too. Wood's right I missed my chance and I don't deserve you."

After he said this he bowed his head once more and remained completely silent.

Oliver came up behind me and whispered; "Come on Hermione we should go."

I took a deep breath and pushed Oliver away from me.

"Hermione?" Oliver said confused.

"Don't come near me." I said. "I want to be alone."

"But Hermione." Oliver said.

"No. Leave me be." I said on the verge of tears and turned my back on them. I began to walk out but someone grabbed my arm from behind.

I turned around to face Harry.

"Hermione." he said and released my arm.

"Harry I don't want to talk to you."

"Hermione please. Just let me say one thing and you never need to talk to me again if that's what you want."

I sighed and nodded my head.

"Fine." I said.

"I know I've hurt you and I know I don't deserve this chance to talk with you but you see that's the thing. You're willing to. I'm not like that and I wish I could change that. You see if I were willing to believe you when I heard that rumor about you cheating on me, and I know now that it wasn't true but the thing is if I did believe you we would still be together now."

"You're probably right Harry. Is that the one thing you had to say?" I said.

"No. The one thing I want to say to you is... Is that I still love you." Harry said and took a step towards me. And before I knew what was happening his lips were on mine...

A/N: Yes that's the end of the chapter, another kissing cliffhanger. Maybe that should be my trademark? Hmm...ok any way I want to apologize about the chapter being very short. I hope you'll forgive me. I'm still deciding who'll end up together and I'm sad to say that the end is near...:sighs: Well I think I have another 2 or 3 chapters left but I can't promise anything. Ok well until next time...oh and please be a responsible reader and review.
