"Erm, I'm really sorry about what happened today." Harry said nervously to Camilla.
Why is Harry talking to me? Is he really sorry? He didn't hate me?
Camilla felt herself going red.
"Um…that's ok…it wasn't your fault…yeah." She looked up at Harry with her big brown eyes. She felt a love more than she had ever imagined as she stared at him. She lost the ability to speak, and managed to stammer,
"Um, gotta go…homework." And ran.
Flashback--
Harry knew he had to apologize to the 3rd Year. He didn't know why he couldn't pluck up the courage. He looked at her lovely blonde-brown hair and inside him, his heart swelled.
"Erm, I'm really sorry about what happened today." He said, surprising himself with his confidence. The girl went pink.
"Um…that's ok…it wasn't your fault…yeah." She replied. To Harry she seemed intimidated, and she suddenly shocked him by looking up with her big brown eyes.
Wow. She's so beautiful. I have to say something.
But before Harry could figure out what to say, she said something about homework and skidded off.
Hermione was sad.
Ron obviously fancies Parvati. It's not fair. Can't he see that I love him?
She was sitting in the library, with her nose stuck in "Love potions and spells" by Charlotte Lovebeam. Suddenly a girl with brown eyes that shone with happiness and "swishy" as Hermione put it, hair rushed in. She eyed Hermione sitting there and ran over.
"Um, excuse me Miss but-"
"My name is not MISS! It's Hermione, and who are you?"
"Sorry, Hermione! I'm Camilla Evans, I wanted to ask, does Harry have a girlfriend and did he hate the present I- I mean someone sent him?"
"Woah. Harry used to be going out with Cho, but I think they're broken up now. Harry was only sent a present of dragon dung as far as I know. Why? Did you send him that? Or did you send him something?"
"NO!"
"Hmmmm, quick denial. I'd say you had a crush on Harry."
"Don't tell, please don't tell, please Hermione, please, I beg you!"
"I wont tell. But at least let me help you, I can get the inside knowlege of Harry's heart!"
"Well, ok then. I sent Harry a present, a small pink one. It was a small box with a chocolate heart inside and a little teddy. Did he like it?"
"I don't know. He never mentioned it. I'll find out. Meet me back here at lunch."
Hermione rushed off to find Harry and Ron in the common room. She whacked straight into Harry and out of his pocket slid a little pink present.
"Oh my gosh Harry! I'm so sorry! Wait a minute-what's that?" said Hermione. Harry bent down to pick up the package.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot about this. Should I open it?" replied Harry.
"Duh!"
Harry's hands tore the paper off to reveal a square box. He took off the lid, carefully, and inside was a little teddy that was flying on a Firebolt-it really did fly- and a dark chocolate heart with "I Love You" iced on it. Harry turned pink.
"Wow! That is so cute! Do you know who it's from?" questioned Hermione. This remark was left unanswered as Harry stood in silence, staring at the chocolate.
"Guys it's 10:00. We'd better get going to Herbology." Ron's sleepy voice emerged from the chair in front.
"Yeah, your right. Hermione- wait, where did she go?"
Hermione was racing to find Camilla, she asked a group of 3rd Years on there way to Transfiguration.
"Do any of you know Camilla Evans?" she asked.
From the centre of the group, Camilla stepped out.
"What?"
"I need to talk to you about, you know." A few whispers and giggles broke out.
"Um, ok."
Hermione dragged her to a corner and told her everything.
"He loves the present! He's been staring at it all morning, and is failing to make any contact with people due to an excessive daydreaming problem."
"Really? You're joking? He really liked it?"
"Yes! I was just wondering though, could you help a bit with my crush?"
"Sure, Hermione! Who is it?"
