Oh, also note that this story takes place right after their fifth year. They are about halfway threw there first semester of their sixth year.

Chapter one: When it all began

Hermione woke up in the Gryffindor common room by the fire. Her homework from the previous night spread across her lap. She stretched and yawned and then smiled to herself. She had been having the most wonderful dream. In it she had admitted to Harry that she had feelings for him more then a friend. And Harry had replied by leaning down and kissing her.

Hermione smiled. Yes. She had realized over the summer holidays after there fifth year at Hogwarts that she had fallen for her best friend. And I'm talking about one of those, head over heals don't know what's happening till it's all over, fall.

Of course she wasn't going to tell him this. She wanted to, oh, believe me she wanted to, but she was so afraid that there friendship would be ruined that she just silently kept this all to herself. Not a soul knew...except for Ron that is.

Ron Weasley was Hermione's other best friend. She had known Ron as long as she knew Harry, that first day in there first year at Hogwarts on the train.

She had not been able to bottle up her feelings for Harry any longer and had silently gotten up one night, during the middle of the night, and wept softly. Ron had come upon her as he had been walking to the bathroom. And Hermione had spilled to Ron that she had fallen for Harry and had only recently realized this ("only recently!" He had laughed amusingly.) and now did not know what to do.

Ron had said to tell Harry how she felt and she wouldn't be disappointed (he had smirked mysteriously at this) and to just get it over with. However Hermione's friendship with Harry had grown to an exceptional level and they were closer then they ever had been before. (Hermione thought it probley had to do with the fact that Harry had cried to her in the common room the day they got back from summer vacation over Sirius's death.) And now Hermione did not want to lose this. Even though they were still just friends.

Hermione was glad however that she had told Ron about her feelings for Harry. Although she had been scared at first how he would react since she had suspected that Ron had a thing for her, he had just smiled and told her he had known all along and only liked her in a sisterly way and so did not mind at all. She had been so relieved (not that Ron was a bad guy or anything) now she had someone to talk to when things would get really bad. Or really good. As they were going now.

Hermione sighed a happy sigh.

"Hey mione!"

Hermione jumped and turned around to look right at the Hero of last night's dream.

"Hello Harry." She smiled widely.

"How come you slept in the common room last nigh?" He asked.

She looked down and saw that she was still in the chair in front of the fireplace, her homework still thrown across her lap.

"Oh, I must have fallen asleep well completing Snape's essay last night." She laughed.

"But the essay isn't due for another two weeks!" He stated shocked.

"There's no harm in being a little ahead sometimes you know." She laughed again as she stuck out her tongue at him.

"Whatever you say Hermione." He lightly laughed back. "But one of these days your body is just going to give out cause of all the work you force on yourself." He replied with concern in his voice now.

Her eyes filled with emotion as she heard the concern in his voice and she smiled.

"Don't you worry about me collapsing under the pressure I have cause of my studies..." She replied. "I'd be a little more worried about you and all the pressures you have on your shoulders...like how about the prophecy that your supposed to save the world or die trying..." A little catch was in her throat as she thought about the fact that it was very possible that Harry could die trying to fulfill his destiny.

Harry caught the catch though and kneeled down beside her and peered into her eyes.

"You know nothing's going to happen to me! It is my destiny that I will defeat Lord Voldamort and the world will carry on with not having to worry about the dark Lord any longer. It will all be a matter of history soon." He smiled reassuringly to her.

She didn't look convinced though.

"I Promise!" He told her looking into her eyes and right into her soul it seemed, and for an instant she saw a flicker of something pass through his eyes before it vanished as quickly as it came and he continued looking at her smiling.

She finally smiled back and in that instant she truly believed him and she leaned in and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Thanks Harry."

"Your welcome." He replied as he wrapped his arms around her waist and squeezed her back.

She pulled back and quickly gave him a light kiss on the cheek. She blushed and looked down quickly afterwards. Oh no what if she had just given it away there, what if he knew now how she felt. She finally got the nerve to look up at him again and he was staring at her with that flicker of something in his eyes again. And this time it stayed. Harry opened his mouth as if to say something but was quickly interrupted.

"Morning Harry, Hermione." Ron yawned as he came walking down from the boy's dormitories.

Ron stopped as he came to the bottom of the stairs and looked at the pair of them.

"Oh, sorry did I interrupt anything?" He asked starting to smirk now.

Harry was the first to get out of the trance like stage they had been put in over the emotional talk and got up off the floor.

"Not at all Ron." He stated smiling.

Hermione got up off the chair at last and gathered up her books shoving them into her bag as quickly as possible. She was suddenly very tired and decided to go down to the great hall for breakfast.

"I'm starved!" She sighed speaking her thoughts out loud. "Do you two want to come join me for breakfast in the great hall before classes?" She asked.

"Sure!" They both replied in unison.

"k, lets meet back in the common room in fifteen then alright?" She asked again.

They both just nodded their heads and started to walk up the stairs to the boy's dormitory.

Hermione watched Ron and Harry leave and couldn't help staring at Harry as he left. What had been that look in his eye anyway? And why had he cared so much when she was concerned about him.

Enough that he made a promise that he may not be able to keep!!!

Well there it is the first chapter. If you want me to continue at least ONE person has to review. I will update tomorrow if I get this. Remember flames welcome but be nice!!!
