Hermione pulled her pillow closer to her until she was ready to wake up. This is a really nice pillow. It's warm and comfy. She snuggled closer to what she thought was a pillow until she woke up. She fluttered her eyes open to see that it wasn't a pillow. To her horror, she was snuggled up to Harry. She quickly pulled away and looked at the ground.
"S-s-s-sorry" She said as she raised her face to look him in the eye.
"I-I-I- need-a-shower" Harry said as he stood up and went towards the bathroom.
Hermione pushed herself back onto the bed. How did this happen? She rubbed her temples with two fingers and was deep in thought. She opened her eyes and saw that Harry had already gotten out of the shower and was now rummaging through his suitcase for his clothes. Hermione caught herself checking her best friend out. Well he was only wearing a towel wrapped around his waist and there was still water droplets on his skin. Hermione was drooling over him. Hermione! Get yourself together! It's Ron that you're in love with. Harry's just doing you a huge favor. Even though he is still getting paid but that's not the point. Hermione saw that Harry was going to dress formally today so she thought she'd say something.
"Um, Mrs. Weasely said we are playing a game of Quiddich today, like old times" Hermione said.
"Oh, well I guess I have to change."Harry pulled out a pair of kneel length shorts and a regular polo shirt. "Wow, I haven't played Quiddich since 5th year"
Hermione turned away so she could give Harry some privacy but her mind was thinking other thoughts. She just ignored it and thought of what she'd wear. I think I'll wear my short shorts and that white button down sleeveless shirt. I always liked that shirt. Hmm?... Hermione got up and went to her suitcase to get her clothes. It was a bit cold outside but later on it would be getting more hot. I'll just bring a jacket just in case. She pulled out a pink jacket and went to the bathroom to change. She wasn't going to change in front of Harry like he did to her.
"I'll be right back" Hermione said as she left the room to go to the bathroom.
Harry just nodded and went back to his business.
Hermione changed into her outfit and made the few minor adjustments of unbuttoning a few of the top buttons. She tied her hair in a high bun so it wouldn't get in the way when they played Quiddich. She washed her face before she put any make up on. The cool water on her face woke her up a little and made her feel fresh. She toweled off any excess water on her face then lightly put on eye shadow and lip gloss. She didn't want anyone to notice she was wearing make up so applied very little. She pulled her shorts down lower so they rested on her hips then threw on her jacket. She stepped out of the bathroom to see that Harry was reading a Quiddich book that was laid out in their room before they came.
"How do I look?" Hermione said twirling around.
"Great! Let's go downstairs" Harry suggested.
Hermione was a little disappointed by Harry's comment but just dropped it. They joined most of the Weasely's downstairs and had a small breakfast. They all chatted for a bit and shared some old Hogwart's stories. All the good times. Man, why couldn't we stay at Hogwart's forever? I miss everyone and everything there. I miss spending time with Harry and Ron. I miss Ron. I miss going to Hogsmead and buying out the candy shop. I miss those late night sleep overs we used to have in the common room. I miss it all. Hermione let out a heavy sigh and put her fork down on her plate which et everyone know she was done eating.
"Hermione dear, you haven't even touched the waffles I made" Mrs. Weasely noticed.
"I-I'm not very hungry" Hermione lied.
"Mione? Can I speak with you in the other room?" Ron asked.
"Sure" Hermione said getting up from the table.
Ron and Hermione walked to the other room and Hermione faced Ron for the first time in a couple years. She looked into his dull eyes and noticed that they weren't as bright as Harry's. She put a serious look on her face and furrowed her eyebrow.
"Mione, are you okay?" Ron asked getting a hold of her hands.
"Okay? Do I look okay, Ronald?"
"What's wrong?"
"What do mean what's wrong? I'm fine. It's- it's- ...nothing" Hermione said shaking her head.
"I know you better than that. What's wrong?"
"Honestly, I'm fine. Now if you excuse me, I would like to join the other's now"
Hermione could tell that Ron was worried about her. Why does he have to care, now? After everything and only now he notices that I'm not alright? He's a bloody moron if you ask me. Why couldn't he tell that I still am madly in love with him! I can't take this anymore. I wonder if in the end this is all worth it. He left me out of nowhere and I still want him back. Hermione's train of thoughts were interrupted but Harry. She noticed that they were the only ones left at the table.
"Mione? Are you okay?" Harry asked.
"Me? I'm fine. Honestly" Hermione replied.
"You don't look alright"
"I'm fine, really."
"No you're not. I can tell."
"Harry, I'm fine. Let's go catch up with the others" Hermione suggested.
"Alright but just promise me you're alright"
"I am" Hermione lied.
They went outside to the field where everyone was getting ready to play Quiddich. They slip the teams into Girls versus Boys. Hermione got a broom and placed herself on it. She was afraid of heights but she really wanted to play. They all flew up above the field a Mr. Weasely released the balls. The game was on but Hermione didn't know how to play too well so she just followed the others. It wasn't as rugged as the games they played at Hogwart's since they played fairly. After a few plays they took a water break. They all landed and went to the back porch for water and snacks.
Hermione grabbed a bottle of water for her and Harry. She gave him his water with a kiss on the cheek since everyone was watching. She drank a few sips from her water. Soon everyone but Hermione, Ron and Ginny were left at the porch. Ginny was watching the others walk out to the field. Hermione set her water down and untucked her shirt. She tied it up so you could see her waist.
"It's hot today, isn't it?" Hermione said trying to start up a conversation.
"Yeah" Ron said as he noticed what Hermione done with her shirt.
He tried not to notice it because it was making him nervous. He looked up and around the room, anywhere but at Hermione.
"I think we'd better get back to our game" Ron suggested moving out to the field.
Hermione closed her eyes. Good going, idiot. Maybe he has moved on. Hermione felt the tears well up in her eyes but tried her best not to show it because Ginny was coming her way.
"Mione, are you alright? You know you can tell me. I'm your best friend"
"I know Gin. It's just that I've had a lot on my mind lately"
"I know, I can tell. So can the others" Ginny reminded.
"I know. Ron and Harry both tried to see what's wrong. Am I really that obvious?"
"So there is something wrong, spill"
"Well I've just had a lot on my mind lately." Hermione sat down so it was easier to talk. She was also wondering if she should tell Ginny that she hired Harry to be her date. Nah. "I miss Hogwarts and spending time with everyone. It's so sad that we all sort of drifted away form each other. I mean you and Draco are getting married and going to live in New York and Ron is doing his own thing..."
"Do you still love him?" Ginny asked. "Ron that is"
"I honestly don't know anymore." Hermione said shaking her head. "I think I am but I still am feeling hatred towards him for leaving me and everything"
Ginny lowered her head.
"Hermione... I...we..." Ginny started. "Oh never mind"
"What is it"
"Nothing, just rubbish"
Hermione stood up and followed Ginny back to the field. Harry had moved to the girls team to help them win. Even though it was just for fun, they still kept score. Hermione wasn't really into the game. She just sat around and flew around close to the ground since she still hated heights. Flying reminded her of so many memories at Hogwarts. She let out a heavy sigh and didn't even notice that the game had ended.
"Come on Hermione, let's eat" Luna said waiving her hands at Hermione.
Hermione quickly landed and joined the others walking back to the house. Harry grasped Hermione's hand as they walked down the field. Hermione watched Ron in front of her and was determined that she was still in love with him. I know that it's love that I'm feeling right now. I love Ron. Or so she thinks. They approached the house and everyone but Harry and Hermione went in.
"Look Hermione there's something I have to tell you" Harry started.
"What is it?" Hermione said in a worried tone.
"I...well...It's just that... Oh shoot" Harry said.
"What?"
"Nothing. Let's just join the others."
"Are you sure its nothing?" Hermione asked.
"Yes" Harry said firmly.
The sat down at the table where Ginny was passing out invitations to her bachelorette party. Hermione got hers sitting on her plate as soon as she sat down. It read.
To Hermione,
Please join me in celebrating my last days of freedom before I marry Draco. The theme for my party is Golfing attire. (You know the funky socks and stuff?) It'll be at the club, Dolce. Be there at 5:30PM sharp on Saturday. See you then.
Love, Ginny.
Hermione admired the invitation and all the decorations added. She always loved Ginny's hand writing since it was neat and curvy. She folded the invitation back up and put it in it's envelope. She gave a wink to Ginny which told her that she was able to make it. It's not like she had a choice since she had no where else to go on that day anyways.
"Hermione, dear you're done already?" Mrs. Weasely asked.
"Oh yeah I'm not too hungry" Hermione said rather sheepishly. "If you don't mind, I'm going up to my room"
"Alright honey, I'll save you a plate of food in the fridge in case you get hungry"
"Thanks" Hermione said getting up and leaving the table.
She
casually walked up to her room. She started unbuttoning her shirt so
she could take a shower. She was literally exhausted from all the
activities today. She threw her shirt on the bed and laid down for a
moment. She closed her eyes while she sang, "Staring out at the
rain with a heavy heart.
It's the end of the world in my mind.
Then your voice pulls me back like a wake up call. I've been looking
for the answer. Somewhere I couldn't see that it was right there. But
now I know what I didn't know." She opened her eyes to see
Harry standing at the door with a smile across his face.
"HARRY!" Hermione shouted in shock.
"I love the way you sing, it's so comforting" he replied.
Hermione quickly realized that she only had her bra on and that she was sitting up right looking at Harry. She grabbed her shirt and covered herself with it. Why didn't he say anything about me only being in my bra? And why is he looking at me like that? It's giving me the creeps. It's so weird that I feel different around him since I haven't seen him in years. She adjusted the way she was sitting on the bed and tried to cover herself come more.
"Um, you do know that I'm in my knickers, right?" Hermione said as a matter of fact.
"Oh right! Sorry" Harry said rather embarrassed.
"Yeah..."
Hermione waited until Harry left so she could hop into the shower. After a long game of Quiddich at a hot field a nice cool shower was quite refreshing. She reached for her towel that was hanging on a towel rack. It was a little damp but the only towel laid there. She wiped her face with it and it smelt so good. It smelt like...Harry? She wrapped the towel around her bare body and could still smell the heavy scent Harry left on the towel. Must be the nice shampoo. She got dressed in her pajamas and slipped into the empty bed to read a book.
"Hey you" Harry said popping his head in the room, scaring Hermione nearly to death.
"Harry! Don't scare me like that" Hermione said wide eyed.
"Sorry, whatcha' reading?" he asked curiously.
"Hogwarts A History"
"Again? You used to read that book all the bloody time at Hogwarts"
"I know and that's why I am choosing to read it. Don't you miss it there?"
"Well I've always told you and Ron that it was my home"
"Yeah, I miss it so bloody much. I wish I was there right now. I miss everyone and spending time with you..." Hermione said but soon realized what came out of her mouth. "...And Ron"
"Yeah, me too"
"Well good night" Hermione said as she closed her book and laid it on the table beside her.
"Good Night" Harry said as he gave Hermione a kiss good night.
He just kissed me. And not to impress anyone but just for me? Hermione held her hand over the exact spot Harry kissed her good night. She laid in her bed thinking what it meant. I wonder if Harry has feelings for me? No, that can't be. We are JUST friends. I should be focusing on the real prize, Ron. She drifted off to sleep.
END OF CHAPTER!
