A/N Thanks for the reviews. Sorry about the shortness. I already have the chapters planned out and will need to rearrange them so the posts can be longer. It shouldn't be too much of a problem. Anyway, please read and review.

"He was always there to help her"

Hermione stared in awe.

"Harry, how did you find this place?"

He shrugged his shoulders and grinned.

That beautiful grin...

"The dresses are in the far back corner,"

As soon as she reached that section of the store a glimmer caught her eye. It was a gorgeous gown of periwinkle- blue. The way it glinted in the light seemed to add more to the vibrant fabric. It was the right one.

It was perfect.

"That's really nice."

Hermione jumped. She hadn't heard Harry walk up behind her.

"Yeah...um...thanks," she said while trying to hide the fact that she was blushing.

Did he notice?

She paid for the dress, and they left the shop.

"Thanks for taking me there. The dress is perfect."

Harry simply smiled.

"Well, you better meet back up with Ginny. I'll see you later," he said before rushing off.

Harry was happy that he had helped her find the right dress. She had seemed so upset on their way to the shop. And that look she had given him.

That look was priceless.

He couldn't help but notice the slight blush after he complimented her. Hermione hadn't seemed genuinely happy for a while. She had needed something to cheer her up.

However, what he couldn't place was that blush. Where had it come from? It wasn't the first time he'd ever complimented her on an outfit. It made him feel awkward when she did that. It made him feel out of place.

Since when had it become like that around Hermione?

Actually, now that he thought about it, things had gotten that way right around the time she had started avoiding him. Well, he wasn't positive if that really was what she was doing, but it surely seemed that way. Harry couldn't think of a reason why she would, but he knew that he had to find out.

A/N Hope you liked it. Please review. I should have the next chapter posted tomorrow. Bye!
