Chapter 10 Hermione's mistake

Hermiones pov

Hermione walked out into the dark hallway. "What are you doing up?" Asked a voice behind her. She spun around face to face with Remus Lupin.

"I...uh...fancied a walk?" She said coping something Ron had said before.

"Mind if I walk with you?" He asked.

"Sure, why not?" Hermione answered nervously. And so they walked down the hall, then down the stares then into the kitchen and sat at the long table in the middle of the room. Remus sat across from her on the other side and she could feel one of his legs against hers. She didn't do anything about it. She had a feeling that Remus liked her a lot. He always acted different around her and they were alone often, when she was not with Ron. And here they were again all alone. It didn't ease her mind, until she had an idea.

"Um...Remus can I talk to you about something?" Hermione asked nervously.

"Sure anything you want Hermione." He answered, looking into her light brown eyes with his.

"Well something just happened and you have to promise you wont tell anybody." She said.

"I promise I wont tell anybody." Remus said slowly.

"Please this is important you cant tell anyone." Hermione said.

"Look if it will make you happy, I promise on my dead friends graves all right?" Remus said.

"Ron kissed me, and he told me he loves me and he cant live without me and he asked me to be his girlfriend." She said in a rush.

Remus looked weird. His eyes moved down to the table, and he put his hands together on the table.

"I don't know if I really like him that much though and I don't want to break his heart, and Remus I really like Harry a lot. And I don't think Harry will be happy if I go out with Ron. I just wrote him a letter telling him all this. Remus what should I do?" Hermione said desperately.

"Well" started Remus quietly, "maybe you should tell all this to Ron, and wait till you get back Harry's letter before you make a decision." She could tell Remus liked her too.

"And there's another thing,...I feel like someone else really likes me too, and I don't want to hurt him either" She said giving him a look that told him she knew he liked her.

"If your talking about me...I'm old, maybe I'm not right for you." He finished as though this ended the matter.

"But what if you are? How could we find out?" She asked him.

He looked down at the floor then got up and came over to Hermione's side of the table. He took her hand in his, then stood up and said quietly "come with me".

She got up and followed, her hand in his, not asking any questions. He took her upstairs and into his room. He shut the door firmly behind him and locked it. He turned to her and grabbed her other hand.

"I know how we could find out" he said slowly.

Then he leaned in and kissed her lips. She slowly started to kiss him back wondering how this would help. He let go of her hands and wrapped them around her waist. She put her hands around his neck. She backed up and fell onto his bed. He came down with her and pulled her all the way onto the bed. Then as they kissed Hermione felt his hands all over her body. She was only wearing a flimsy thin white tank top, (with a white bra under it of course), and clingy white short shorts that had little hearts on the string as a belt, and white underwear. Remus was wearing dark green robes. Which at this point as he was kissing her he pulled off himself. Now he was in a white tee shirt and black silk boxers.

Rons pov

Ron turned and could make out who the tall figure was standing over him. Suddenly a door behind the man opened and Ron looked into the girls face. He screamed the same time she did and Ron was suddenly knocked out.

Hermiones pov

Hermione had to stop. She pulled away and said no quietly. Then she ran to the door. She flung it open and Hermione stared at Ron from across the hall then she screamed as he did. The man didn't turn around but grabbed Ron and shoved something in his hand. They disappeared.
