Hey everyone! I'm so sorry it has taken me forever to update. My computer wasn't working right. I was off for two weeks and I go back to school tomorrow. I wanted to update in those two weeks but I couldn't. I hope everybody had a happy new year! By the way, I'm going to go back through the chapters and fix some mistakes I made. I'm not adding or cutting anything out, I'm just revising a little.
Chapter 6: Love and Hate
"Harry, you weren't seriously going to forgive her, were you?" Hermione asked as she sat down to Harry on the couch.
"No. I must say though, after that display, if I was thinking about forgiving her, I wouldn't." Harry said. Then he kissed Hermione.
"Good. Because if you were going to forgive her, I wouldn't say yes." Hermione said with a huge smile on her face. Harry jumped up immediately. He knew what she meant.
"Hermione, you mean it. Even after the whole thing with Jennifer, you still want to marry me?"
"Yes, why wouldn't I? I love you Harry, I always have and I always will. Nothing can change that." Hermione said as she gave Harry a kiss.
"I love you too, Hermione. I'm glad you said yes." Harry said as he picked Hermione up and took her to his bedroom.
Jennifer pulled into her driveway and went into her place to figure out a plan to get back at Harry. "I could just kill him, but that wouldn't be painful enough. I want him to wish he was dead. I want him to feel as pain as he caused me. I want him to suffer." Jennifer thought. She got a glass of vodka out and drank it. She kept drinking until she was drunk. "I could just kill his precious girlfriend, whatever her name is. Killing her would break him. She's such a slut, how could he choose her over me?" She thought. "Yes, that's what I'll do, I'll break him. I'll break him so that he will feel the pain I've felt." She said out loud as she went to get her gun out of the box she kept it in way in the back of her closet. She got into her car and drove off to Harry's house.
Harry and Hermione were lying on the bed under the covers. "I love you Mione." Harry said and the kissed her forehead.
"I Love you too, Harry. I got to take a shower now. I have to get up really early to go to work in the morning."
"Hermione, who do you work for again?" Harry asked as he sat up in the bed.
"Oh, it's somebody you know. Actually Ron, you, and I know him pretty well. He went to our school. If you want, I can ask if he wants to come over and you two can catch up."
"Well, who is it?" Harry asked, obviously interested now.
"How about I leave that a secret for now?" Hermione said with a smile on her face. Just then the door bell rang. "I'll get it" said Hermione. She answered the door and found Jennifer standing there, obviously drunk.
"Ah, just the person I came to see." Jennifer said as she raised the gun up to Hermione and pulled the trigger. Because Jennifer was drunk, she had horrible aim and only hit Hermione's shoulder. Jennifer ran off before she could see if she hit Hermione or not. Harry heard the gun shot and ran down stairs and saw Hermione lying on the floor holding her shoulder.
"Mione! Oh my God, are you ok? Who did this do you?" Harry said as he rushed over to her.
"Harry, I'm fine. It was that bitch, Jennifer. She was drunk and upset. She just hit my shoulder. Now just call for some help." With that, Harry rushed over to the phone and called 911. They were at the hospital for an hour before they left. Hermione had some stitches in her shoulder and she had to wear a sling for a couple of days. They arrested Jennifer and changed her with attempted murder and a DUI. On The drive home, Harry kept looking over at Hermione to make sure she was ok. She was mostly just sleeping the whole way home.
"I guess you're not going to work tomorrow." Harry said when he saw that Hermione was awake.
"No, I can still go. All I do all day is work on a computer. It will be hard, but I can go." Hermione replied.
"Ok, if you think you're up to it. If you're not, just tell me and I'll call your boss and tell him you're not coming in."
"Yeah, and ruin the surprise, I don't think so. You'll just have to wait to find out who the mystery boss is." Hermione said, laughing.
Well, that's all for now. I basically tied up the whole Jennifer story line. There was only so far I could go with it. So, who do you think the mystery boss is? I hope to update soon, no promises though. lol.
