Out of the Woods
Hermione stared at the dark haired-boy sitting across from her. His glasses bobbed as he rubbed his eyes in fatigue.
"Exhausted?" she asked in her most thoughtful and kind voice.
"Yes, just a little bit," he mumbled.
"Go on up to bed, I'll finish your home work for you," she smiled, taking his roll of parchment away from him.
I wish you out of the woods
and into the picture with me.
I wish you over the moon,
come out of the question and be.
If this is going to
run round in my head
I might as well be dreaming,
run round in my head.
"Are you sure, Hermione?" he asked, looking at her with unfeigned surprise.
"Yes," she replied with a soft smile. "Go get some sleep, Harry."
"No, I'll stay with you 'til you're done, I'll just sit at the table here with you..." he slowed, his head nodding.
"Please, Harry, you can go upstairs. It's alright."
"Alright," he relented, picking himself up slowly.
"G'night, Harry."
I roller coaster for you,
time out of mind
must be heavenly.
It's all enchanted and wild,
it's just like my heart said
it was gonna be.
If this is going to
run round in my head
I might as well be dreaming,
run round in my head.
"G'night, Hermione," he whispered, kissing at her cheek, but instead landing on her lips as he stumbled forward in his drowsiness.
They stayed that way, Hermione sitting, Harry slumped over into the kiss, as seconds dragged by.
"Sorry," Harry said when he finally pulled away. Suddenly he was slightly more alert, and a deep flush covered his cheeks as he stared down at her.

Hermione stood, her fingers barely touching her lips, and went over to the fire place. She turned back to Harry, after a moment of reflection in the fire, building her courage for what she was about to do...
She kissed him full on the lips, her hand touching his cheek in a soft caress. But he didn't pull away as she had feared he might. In fact, he leaned into her, his body pushed completely against hers, kissing her back, almost passionately.
I wish you out of the woods

Finally, they parted again, slowly, and stared into each other's eyes.
"Good night," Harry finally said, breaking the silence.
"Good night," Hermione whispered, pulling her hand away.
They kissed once more, a small gentle kiss, and then Harry turned and went up to his dormitory, Hermione following suit to hers, leaving all of their work on the table as it was.
After all, she kind of wanted proof that this had actually, finally happened for her.
If this is going to
run round in my head
I might as well be dreaming,
run round in my head.
Okay, well, the end... got a lil' steamy there didn't it? Oh yeah, it did! But I got more motivation for a one-shot, and felt I should do it, just for fun!!! Besides, this is how I imagine it happening (if it ever does) in the book!!! (at least I hope! Except, maybe there won't be any music either... oh well!) Well, review, review, review! and THANK YOU!!!
