Chapter Twelve
It's In the Bag
Author's Note: I know the last chapter wasn't the best but I was hurrying to update, sorry. Chapter twelve, hope it's better! Thanks for reading!
I should warn you, I'm not much of a horse back rider, Hermione told him as they made their way down a dirt path.
Harry laughed, That's okay, neither am I.
She laughed too.
I just thought it would be fun to go horse back riding, he shrugged.
I think it's wonderful, she smiled brightly.
You know how I am, he joked.
She laughed and shook her head, You know I would hit you right about now but I'm afraid I'll fall off the horse.
He grinned and replied, Lucky me.
The laughter soon died and they rode along the path in silence enjoying the woodland area.
The silence that was nice soon turned awkward and Harry decided to break it, I really liked going to see your family, he wasn't even half-lying.
Really?' she asked, somewhat surprised, after-all her brothers had given him The Talk'.
Yeah, I loved hearing stories about how you stuck your head in the toilet, he laughed.
That's not funny! she smiled helplessly.
Oh and the time you went to school with two different shoes on-SHUT UP! she laughed despite her tone.
Or how about the time you walked out of the grocery store with a pack of gum because you wanted it and your mum wouldn't let you have it and the alarm went off, he continued.
La La La La I can't hear you! she shouted but not too loud, in fear she would scare the horses.
He chuckled, Let's not forget the time you flooded the toilet in Wilke's Department store and ran out of the bathroom because you were scared you would get in trouble and it seeped out of the bathroom into the shoe area.You are a cruel and horrible person, she looked at him disbelievingly.
He laughed and shook his head, No I'm not.
She stifled a laugh and nodded, Yes you are, cruel and unjust! smiled at her.
Yes you are! Bringing up the most embarrassing moments of my childhood, besides where did you get all those stories? she demanded.
Your Great-Aunt Josephine. Did you know once you get her talking she doesn't stop? he asked.
Hermione actually reached out and slapped the back of his head, hard.
he said but laughed all the same.
Serves you right! she responded.
And I was hoping the fear of falling off the horse would restrain you from doing that!
Before she could hit him again he galloped ahead.
...
When she finally caught up with him he had stopped and was looking out over a large pond.
When her horse strode up next to him, stopped, and he when didn't notice her there she said,
He looked over at her and smiled, Hey you.Watcha doin'? she asked.
he looked back at the water.
she questioned.
he glanced at her and she blushed. I have a question for you.My friend Dean is getting married in three days, I was wondering if you would come with me... As my girlfriend, he adverted his eyes to her again.
Before she even had time to smile she asked, Three days will be two weeks since we've met?
His breath caught in his throat, Of course, she replied, swallowing. I'll go.
Harry grinned, But that's sad, you'll have to lose him for sure at the wedding if you wanna win the bet, Luna said, sticking a spoonful of ice cream in her mouth.
Who said she was going on with the bet? I think she should just go out with him, maybe he's the one! Lavendar began digging into the large ice cream carton as Hermione's heart panged at the fact that she had to lose him.
NO NO NO NO NO! I DON'T EFFIN' LOVE HIM!
Oh I don't think he is, she shrugged. I'll lose him at the wedding, no problem.
Lavendar frowned and shook her head, And he was so hot too.
...
The next day at work Harry pranced into Ron's office where Ron and Neville were sitting and talking.
HAH! I have this bet in the bag! She agreed to go to the wedding!So? Who says she loves you? Ron asked.
She does, trust me.Oh you'll see, Harry grinned.
Little did he know they were all in for a shocker.
