Thanks ardenb16 for the review! I know I shouldn't have left it off in a conversation. I told myself that too, but I didn't want it to be too long...
"Reilly I know, but you should really go talk to him." Hermione said.
"Ok..." Reilly said. They turned around and started walking back to the common room. They walked to the fat lady, and Hermione told her the password and then they walked into the common room to see Dean and Ginny sitting there on the couch.
"Oh Hermione! Ron wanted me to tell you that he wants you to go up to his room...possibly for some fun!" Ginny told her.
"Thanks Ginny." Hermione told her smirking. "Alright Reilly, just relax. And tell him what you feel." Hermione told her.
"Yeah, thanks Hermione." Reilly told her and she walked up to the boy's dormitory. She knocked at the door and heard a voice inside.
"What?" The voice said.
"Seamus, can I come in?" She asked politely.
"If you have to." He said. Reilly turned the knob and walked into the dim light room. She saw Seamus sitting on his bed, she walked over to him.
"Seamus, can I talk to you?" She asked.
"I don't know, you might yell at me again?" He shot back.
"Seamus just stop. Don't be that way. I want to apologize." She said. "I mean yeah I shouldn't have yelled at you like that and it was rude. But you were putting all the blame on me, its not all my fault!" She told him.
He didn't say anything, he didn't even look at her. He just sat there.
"Seamus, I guess it is my fault." Reilly finally said. He looked up at her with a confused look on his face.
"No...its not! Reilly, I only said that because I was mad. Harry is going to want us to work like dogs, he really wants to impress Wood! But I didn't mean that, I'm sorry." He finished. Reilly just looked at him, with a confused look on her face.
"Thanks Seamus." She said and she got up and gave him a hug.
"Reilly, can we promise each other that we will never fight again?" Seamus asked her.
"Of course! Seamus I promise you that I will never fight with you again." She told him while looking deeply into his eyes.
"And Reilly, I promise you that I will never fight with you...or blame anything on you again." Seamus told her. Reilly looked at him, and gave him a huge hug. Reilly was feeling a bit uncomfortable.
"Yeah, well...I better go find Harry." She said and she walked out of the room. She was walking back downstairs when she saw Harry sitting on the couch.
"Oh hi Harry..." Reilly said.
"Hi." He said without looking at her.
"Uh, Harry what's the matter?" She asked.
"Nothing." He lied.
"Harry can I talk to you?" She asked.
"Yes..." He said.
"Outside?" She said. Harry got up and they walked out of the common room together, not saying a word. They walked through the halls unnoticed to the benches outside.
"What do you want to talk about?" Harry asked innocently.
"No, Harry what do you want to talk about?" She said back.
"What?" He questioned.
"Harry I know something's wrong, and its pointless in lying because I can tell." She told him.
"Reilly nothing is wrong." He told her.
"Put that on everything?" She questioned. Harry looked at her...
"It's just that I feel like you not just liking me..." He said.
"What?" She asked.
"I feel like you like Seamus." He told her.
"Harry! That's nonsense! You know I like you, Seamus is just a friend of mine!" She told him.
"But the other night, you wouldn't come upstairs with me...you stayed down their with Seamus, then today you're up in the dormitory alone with Seamus...just Seamus!" He told her.
"Harry calm down. Nothing is going on between us, we got in a fight after you left and I needed to talk to him." She told him softly.
"You promise?" He asked.
"Harry I wouldn't lie to you, you mean everything to me and I don't want to mess that up." She said. Harry looked her in the eyes, and got closer to her face; she moved in and kissed him softly on the lips. Then she pulled back...
"Harry I love you." She said. Harry was in complete, utter shock. She told him that she loved him and he wasn't too ready for a relationship where they were saying I love you.
"It's ok Harry, you don't need to say it back. I just want you to know that I really do care about you...a lot and I never want to lose you." She told him and she headed off back to the school leaving Harry standing there.
Reilly felt really wrong for what she did to Harry. She knew she was jumping into things, but she did feel like that was the only way to prove to Harry that she really did care about him, but she really did love him too. Reilly started walking back to the common room when she heard Ginny's voice around the corner.
"...I can't tell them about you and you know that." Ginny's voice said. Reilly poked her head around the corner and saw Ginny talking to Draco. Reilly didn't believe that she was seeing this, what was it that Ginny couldn't tell "them" about, and who was "them" anyway.
"But Gin, if we are really meant to be together than you won't care what they think" Draco told her softly.
"Draco! If they find out, you know Ron will kill me!" Ginny told him.
"So then don't tell him, but please still be with me...it can be a secret. Nobody has to know." Draco told her.
"Ok...but I got to go back to the common room now. Ron thinks I'm going to feed Pig." Ginny told him.
"Ok Gin. Then I'll see you tonight...in the library...8 o'clock?" He questioned.
"Of course..." Ginny told him and gave him a kiss on the lips. And started walking towards Reilly, Reilly turned the corner and bumped into Ginny.
"Oh hey Ginny, I'm sorry." Reilly told her.
"Oh Reilly its ok. You going back to the common room?" She asked her.
"Yeah..." Reilly said. Reilly wasn't sure what she should do about this, she couldn't just tell Ron and Harry about this, she couldn't tell anybody.
"Yeah so...why are you here?" Reilly asked questionably.
"Um...uh I had to feed Pig." She lied to her.
"Oh." Reilly said. That was their end of the conversation; they walked back into the common room in silence. They walked through the portrait to see Ron, Harry, and Seamus all relaxing in the common room.
"Uh...hi." Reilly said.
"Hi Reilly." Ron told her.
"Um...Reilly can I talk to you?" Harry asked.
"Sure." Reilly said, she wasn't sure this would be a good thing. Harry got up and brought her upstairs to the dormitory.
"Ok, Reilly. Um...what exactly happened before?" Harry asked her. Reilly was shocked to hear this, because she wasn't even sure what had happened.
"I told you I loved you." She said innocently.
"Why?" Harry asked.
"Because you're my boyfriend." Reilly said.
"And why else?" He shot back.
"Because I don't want you to think that I don't care about you." She said.
"Reilly, I don't need you to do that. Because you couldn't have meant it, and it was like a lie and I don't want you to lie to me." Harry told her.
"Harry I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said it and your right." She told him.
"Its ok Reilly. You don't need to prove that you care about me by saying I love you until you truly mean it, all I need is you and I'll be happy, that's why I went out with you. For you...you funny, nice, and gorgeous, you are one of the greatest girls I ever met, and I don't want to mess this up either." Harry told her.
"Oh Harry! That was so romantic!" Reilly said while giving him a hug. Harry put his arms around her waist, and pulled her closer. Their eyes met and lips touched, Harry slowly forced his tongue into Reilly's mouth, and it took no problems to let him enter. Their tongue's swirled in a romantic engagement. Reilly let out a small moan to let Harry know that she was enjoying the kiss, while Harry slowly felt around Reilly's body. Harry's hands slowly went to the bottom of Reilly's tank top. For some reason she didn't have Harry stop exploring her body, she let Harry creep up her upper body, as Reilly was more involved in the kiss.
Harry slowly crept up her body, feeling every inch of warmth on his fingertips. He was getting closer and closer to Reilly's bra, but suddenly stopped himself. Reilly pulled away from the kiss...
"Harry it's ok, I know this is going too fast." She told him. Harry just looked at her, wanting to get every bit of her, but she was right...they were moving too fast. Harry really couldn't take his eyes off of her, at this moment; Harry noticed the beauty of not only "looks" but of her altogether. He couldn't speak and he was thankful because he didn't know what to say.
"Harry? Is this ok with you...you seem to be...scared or something..." Reilly said cautiously.
"Ugh...um...yeah...its fine...sorry." Harry mumbled. Reilly wasn't quite sure if Harry was telling the truth, she felt as if he really did want to do something with her.
"Ok...then I guess we should go back down?" She asked him.
"Uh...yeah." Harry said. Reilly turned around and headed for the door, she opened up and looked behind her.
"Harry...are you coming?" She asked him while he started at her from across the room.
"Yeah...I'll meet you down there...I...ugh...need to get something." He lied.
"Ok..." Reilly said. She walked out of the room completely unaware of what had just happened. She walked down the stairs, and into the common room. All the guys were still there talking about Quidditch, and Hermione and Ginny were in the corner going over homework. Reilly had two things on her mind: Ginny and Draco, and what ever is going on with Harry. She decided to talk to Ron about Harry.
"So Reilly, why did you want to talk to me?" Ron asked her.
"You're Harry's best friend...and I want to know if you could do me a favor?" Reilly said.
"Alright, what do you want me to do?" He asked her.
"Ron...I need you to find out what's up with Harry. Like today, when I had to go upstairs with him...it was to talk about something that happened today." She explained.
"Reilly what happened?" He asked her.
"I told Harry I loved him! And I didn't really mean it...and then we talked about it...and we started kissing...then he was going up my shirt...and he stopped. I told him I know that we were moving to fast and that I understood...but he just looked at me like I was a ghost or something...and I asked him if he would come downstairs with me...but he said he had to get something...something is wrong with him Ron...and I don't know what it is..." She finished.
"Wow! Now that's something you don't hear everyday...I guess there really is something wrong with him." Ron said.
"Yeah! And I want you to find out what is wrong!" Reilly told him.
"But Reilly..." He started.
"Ron please! You are the only one who can help me! Please..." She begged.
"Alright." Is all that Ron could say. "I'll talk to him tonight..."
