Hermione sat at an outside table at Ron's favorite restaurant waiting for him. She twisted the straw wrapper between two fingers. Ron came up behind her with a bouquet of flowers.
"I'm sorry Hermione."
"…Ron." She took the flowers and then looked up at him.
"Can I sit with you?"
"Sure."
Ron sat down at the table and automatically grabbed her hands. "I am so sorry Hermione. You have every right to be mad at me. I-I was stupid."
Hermione leaned more forward in her chair. "Of course I can be mad. You slept with another girl!"
"I know and I am really sorry. I should have never had that much alcohol. I will never drink alcohol again."
Hermione laughed. "Like that would happen."
"I would do it for you…I would do anything for you."
Hermione stopped laughing. "Really."
"Really. I would give it up for you."
Hermione looked at her flowers.
"I promise to never hurt you again."
"This is hard for me."
"Why?" Ron moved some hair from her face.
"Because I still love you and I am still hurt."
"I understand." Ron looked away because he had begun to cry.
"A part of me doesn't want to be hurt again and the rest of me wants to get back with you." She wiped his tears.
He looked at her.
She smiled.
He hugged her.
Harry took a few steps back. He was dressed in his invisibility cloak and was watching their reunion. He didn't want Hermione hurt again. Now it looks like they are getting back together. It tore Harry up to see Hermione cry. He hoped Ron was true to his word because he would mess him up if he tried that again!
Harry couldn't watch anymore and decided to go back. How could he have thought Hermione would leave Ron for good? He turned around to see them hugging.
Harry sighed. "Maybe I should just give up on Hermione and move on."
POP!
"So do you want to give this another try?" Ron rubbed her hands with his thumbs.
Hermione gave him a half smile.
DL-
POP!
Harry was back at home. He threw his invisibility cloak onto the couch. Hermione's stuff was still here. The house still smelled like her. Harry went to his kitchen and opened his icebox.
A can of beer was next to his bottle of soda. He grabbed the soda and sat at the table. He didn't see the point of getting drunk. Hermione and Ron where getting back together and he should be happy for them, but Harry was far from happy.
How could he be happy?
Harry went out to the front room and watched TV.
I just have to forget about her…
DL-
"So who exactly is this girl anyway?"
"Bills sister-in-law, she is not known for being the most religious."
Hermione laughed.
"She wasn't even that pretty."
Hermione kept laughing. "Was she good?"
Ron's smile faded. "No, because I don't remember it."
Hermione's smile faded into a half smile.
DL-
Harry was not interested in any thing on TV. He was interested in nothing at the moment. His mind continued to wander back to Hermione and Ron.
"No, I am moving on. They are still in love and I can't come between it."
He got up and went to go get his broom. "This should take my mind off them."
He opened the window and flew out. He felt the wind hit against his face. A feeling he loved. He sped up and continued flying out into the night sky.
DL-
"I have to confess something."
"Yeah."
"I kissed Harry yesterday."
"You kissed Harry!"
Hermione looked at him. "Yeah, but he pulled back because he knew t was wrong."
"I bet he liked kissing you." Ron frowned.
Hermione let this statement float around in her head. "What?"
"He likes you."
"Harry…"
"At least that is what I believe. He used to be crazy about you and when I asked him today he seemed dodgy."
Hermione smiled to herself. "Ron I think-…"
"Well, I better go babe." Ron leaned in to kiss her cheek.
Hermione pulled away.
Ron nodded in agreement and disapparated.
DL-
Harry came back in his window. "I feel a lot better."
He put his broom back and went into the kitchen.
Hermione sat on the couch.
"Hermione…?"
Hermione got up and hugged Harry.
"Thank you Harry."
Harry smiled and hugged her back.
Hermione pulled back from the hug and smiled.
She then leaned in to kiss him but Harry looked away. Hermione looks at the floor in defeat.
Harry turns back to her and sees the look on her face.
"…Hermione."
She doesn't respond.
He lifts her chin up with his hand and kisses her passionately.
Hermione pulled away with the biggest smile on her face. "Harry…"
