Hermione fell asleep in his arms and Harry carried her back to the common room.
He put her on the couch next to the fire to keep her warm and pulled his blanket over the top of her. He kissed her forehead and headed up to bed himself.
The next morning Harry woke up and walked very slowly down stairs.
Hermione was still asleep.
Harry leant down on his knees and stroked Hermione's hair. Hermione woke up.
"Harry? Where am I? What happened?" Hermione yawed and went to get up but then slowly went back down holding her head.
"Your in the common room and you tell me what happened?" Harry asked hermione with a very serious look on his face.
"Huh? Oh....." hermione looked like she only just remembered what had happened.
"Exactly oh" Harry replied and helped her. "Why did you do this Hermione? Its so not like you. Whats wrong?" Harry asked worried.
"Its nothing. I wont do it again I promise I just had a little to much to drink that's all." Hermione help her head in her hands then got up.
"It s not nothing Hermione. Why wont you tell me?" Harry held his hands out waiting for her to fall.
"What class do we have first?" Hermione said trying to avoid the question.
"No No No don't change the subject. But we have Divination." Harry replied. Although he wanted to know what was wrong he didn't want to push it other wise she would never tell him.
"We better go" With that Hermione went upstairs to collect her books.
Within 20 seconds she was down again and she was already to go.
Harry grabbed her hand and they walked to class together.
The next few weeks Hermione seemed fine. There was no drunken outbursts or any conflict between them.
Harry and hermione was sitting near the lake after class. Hermione was laying in harrys lap and Harry was gazing into the sunset.
"Its so beautiful." Hermione stated.
"Not as beautiful as you" Harry replied.
"Im not beautiful Harry don't make up stupid things." Hermione sounded serious.
"What are you talking about Hermione. You are gorgeous. That is why I love you." Harry stated.
"So you only love me for my looks" Hermione sat up and looked at him.
"No that's not what I meant. I mean that's not only why I love you. You are intelligent, caring, generous.....I would go on but we would be here all day." Harry gave hermione a cheeky smile but Hermione returned it with a death look.
"But you didn't say that first. Suppose you think im a no it all and all your going out with me for is for good grades."
"Hermione this is stupid. Im Harry Potter I can have any girl I want but I chose you" Harry said laughing at what he just said but Hermione didn't follow.
"Oh so now your cheating on me! This is just great" Hermione stood up.
"Hermione! I was joking. Besides what I said had nothing to do with..." Hermione interrupted.
"Yes it did! You said you could have any girl you want which implies exactly..." this time Harry cut Hermione off.
"Hermione this is ridiculous" Harry stood up to.
"Yes. Yes it is" with that Hermione walked off leaving Harry standing alone looking into the sunset.
