Chapter Two

She looked around the room, expecting to see him there but nothing. Out of all the faces she saw, not one of them was him. She sighed softly as she slipped the necklace around her neck and fastened it in the back.

About an hour later she was sitting there with her head against Harry's shoulder just looking at the necklace, the letter running through her mind. Did he truly mean it, or would he pull a cruel prank like that? No, he would never do that. He was too kind.

She sighed softly as she sat up and decided to go to bed.

"Guys, I think I am going to head to bed. I am so tired from today, and thanks for everything...." she said and kissed the two boys on the cheek.

"No problem, Mione'." said Harry and hugged her lightly.

"Night, Happy sixteenth birthday." Ron said smiling at her.

She smiled one more time before heading up the stairs to the bedroom she and Ginny shared. She got dressed in her night clothes and slipped under the covers of the bed. She didn't take the necklace off, she never would. It was special and she couldn't bare to not feel it touching her skin. She soon fell asleep, dreams flooding her mind.

----She was sitting in his classroom, she had asked to discuss one of her papers with him, yet he didn't know that was not her intent. She sat at her desk, flipping through her Defense Against the Dark Arts book as she waited for him.

He emerged from his office and she looked up from where she was seated.

"Miss Granger, you requested to see me?"

"Yes," she said simply and closed her book softly.

"Well," he said smiling softly, "To what do I owe this....visit?"

"As I said before, Professor, I wanted to discuss a paper,"

"Which paper?"

"The one you last graded..."

He walked over to her and took the parchment that was in her extended arm. He put it down on the desk and leaned over it, examining it fully.

"Hermione, it looks fine to-" he was about to continue but her hand had came in contact with his cheek gently.

"What are you doing?" he asked as he turned around to face her.

"This," she said softly and kissed him fully on the lips...----

"Hermione!" Ginny said gently shaking her awake. "Time to get up. Mum's going nuts..." she said with that rebellious grin of hers and she darted out the door to leave a confused Hermione to think about her equally confusing dream....
