Harry sat in his bed waiting for 1:00 to run around. All he could do was stare up at the ceiling until the time came. He thought abut writing to Ron to tell him what happened, but he decided against it. His thought still ran rampage in his head. Who was this girl? He was so confused. Time seemed to pass more slowly then ever. Finally 1:00 rolled around. Harry took his bed sheet out his window and climbed out. He started to walk down the street and soon enough, he was standing in the middle of the park. He looked at his watch. '1:13, where is she?' and just as his thought had started,it was pushed out his mind by a body running straight into him and knocking him on his back. The first blow had knocked the wind out of him, but he soon forgot about that as he felt a pair of soft lips on his. He looked up and saw Alice's eyes looking into his. He hadn't noticed how beautiful her eyes were before. They were a very deep shade of blue, almost so, that they looked black. Again, his thoughts were replaced by lips being pushed against his. He had just now realized that Alice was strattling him. They continued to kiss on the grass until he noticed that the grass was wet, and his pants were now too. Like she had read his mind, Alice climbed off him and stood up. Her hair, which looked good everything he had seen her before, was now askew and ruffled. Harry propped himself up on his elbows and looked at her. She had changed clothes, he thought, as he looked at what she was wearing, a low cut tank top, and a plaid mini skirt. Harry couldn't help but feel excited at this. 'Wow she really is gorgeous'
" Come with me," she said. Alice grabbed his hand and helped him up. She started to run and Harry had to chase after her. She sped up and turned to look at Harry. "Come on, you're not gunna let a girl beat you, are you?"
Harry sped up too. They were neck in neck until Alice sped up so fast that Harry, always being kind of faster since he was so scrawny, was left in the dust. When he finally caught up with her, she had sit herself on one of the steps to the playground.
" What took ya so long?" she asked with a playful smile. She reached out and pulled in Harry by the hand. He took his spot next to Alice with a grin.
" I didn't know you could run so fast,"
" You don't know much about me at all, Harry," this response took the smile right off Harry's face. He had forgotten that only 8 hours ago had he met Alice. It seemed like forever ago now. " but not to worry, I wish to get to know you better, would you like to get to know me?"
" Very much so," Harry beamed. Alice again pushed him over and they kissed again. This time, Harry was ready. He kissed her back with such passion that she gasped inside his mouth. They parted and he smiled at her.
" Wow, you're a good kisser,"
" Thanks, so are you," 'Much better then Cho' he thought. Alice looked at the stars. She began to drift into her own world. Harry was wondering what she was thinking about when she said something.
" Lets go into town tomorrow. Let's go to London,"
" How?" Harry asked.
" I have a car. We'll drive" Harry thought this was a wonderful idea. He'd not only would he out of the house, but he'd be with Alice.
" OK,"
" Meet me here tomorrow at 8:00 a.m., and now I must depart for the it is almost 3 o'clock," Harry was surprised by this. He hadn't even realized they had been out here for 2 hours. Harry looked down at his wrist but then remembered he had no watch. When he looked back up, Alice had already turned around and was walking away.
Harry tried to walk toward her, but it was like he was glued to the spot. From ahead he heard her voice.
" Until tomorrow, Harry Potter,"
The next few weeks were some of the best in Harry's life. Every couple of days, Alice would drive them to London. It was the most fun Harry had had in a long tome. He felt at peace with her. Before long, it was Harry's birthday. Everyday before then, at 8:00, Harry and Alice met each other in the park. On the day of Harry's birthday, she wasn't there. Harry thought she was just running late, so he waited…and waited…and waited, but she never showed. At about 1:00, Harry got tired of waiting and went home.
' Just my luck, the one birthday I thought would be wonderful and she didn't show. Maybe she forgot,' all these thoughts were running through his head as he walked home. As he passed Alice's house, he looked to she if her was home. She wasn't. No lights, no cars, nothing. Harry shuffled into his house and ran straight into his uncle. He looked up and saw a fear filled face, the same one in fact, his uncle and aunt got when ever something "magic" was brought inside his house.
" Owls…in this house…get them out," he whispered as he shoved Harry up the stairs. He hurried up to his bedroom to find 4 different owls sitting on his bed. Hedwig looked extremely offended as Harry bustled around getting water and food for all the owls. As he took each card and package off the owls, he realized they didn't fly away. Obviously they were told not to leave without replies. He read each letter, one from Ron, one from Hermione, one from Hagrid, and one from Lupin. Each letter asked how he was doing and how and why he hadn't written as often as he used to. Each letter also came with a present for his birthday. Ron sent him a Cuddly Cannons poster with a wonderful looking rum cake from his mom and 5 pairs of extendable ears from Fred and George, Hermione sent him a large box of sugar-free chocolate, Hagrid sent him a large tin of rock cakes, and Lupin sent him a book called Defense Against the Dark Arts: Becoming a Auror. Usually, Harry would be extremely happy to get such good presents, but today he was far from happy. He really wanted to see Alice, today especially, but he guessed it was early impossible to now since it was nearly dark outside. He had spent 7 hours sitting, reading letters, and thinking. He had missed dinner, and had no way to get food from downstairs now, so he began on the munch on the rum cake he had gotten from Ron's mom. After a while, he started writing replies back to everyone. He wrote back to them that he was fine, and surviving the summer with the Dursleys. He thanked them for their presents, and told them he would write more often. At 10:00, he tied his letters to the owls, and shooed them out the window. Harry fed Hedwig and turned off the light to his room. He laid in his bed, with his mind blank. He could only think of Alice and how she forgot about him. Had he even told her it was his birthday? He couldn't remember. With all this thoughts running wild, he soon fell into a light sleep. Alice glided thought his dreams. He dreamt she was sitting in the park with him. They were laughing at a joke he had just told when Draco walked up and pulled Alice into his arms. Harry watched them kiss, and vomited on the lawn. Draco and Alice began to laugh and Draco was stomping on the ground. So loud, the stomping wouldn't stop. Soon it turned into a tapping sound and Harry opened his eyes to find himself staring at a face in the window, a girl's face, Alice's face. Harry quickly jumped from bed and opened his window. Alice hopped inside and jumped into Harry's arms, knocking him onto his bed. She kissed his lips, then down his neck. Soon, Harry found himself in a slow moan, but stopped abruptly when he remembered that he was mad at her. He pushed Alice off him and sat up. She looked surprised but followed in suit.
" Where were you today?" Harry asked in a sharp tone. Alice began to chuckle. She began to reach inside her pocket and pull out something.
" I'm surprised you didn't realize it. I was getting you your birthday present. Here," she said, holding out a small box. Harry opened to find a necklace. He picked it up and looked at it closer. He say that it had some sort for symbol on it. " It's the Gaelic symbol for Love, I have the other one. I know it seems really soon, but I think I love you Harry…" but she began to trail off. Harry was caught very off guard. He was very mad at Alice 2 minutes ago, but now, he wanted to wrap her in his and hold her forever.
" I love you too, Alice," He responded. Alice leaned over and locked the necklace on Harry's neck. She looked up and smiled at him. Harry had never been in love before, but he liked it. Slowly, he took Alice's hand in his and pulled her onto his lap. She began to kiss him again, but this time it was different. This time, she didn't stop after awhile. She kept on kissing Harry, but she was slowly making her way down his neck. He again, started a small moan. It slowly grew louder as they drew closer into each other. Alice lifted her mouth over to Harry's ear.
" I wanna be with you, Harry," she whispered. He looked into her eyes and saw suck love and lust for him. He knew what she wanted, and he wanted it too. Slowly, he drew her back into his arms and this time, didn't let go.
The remaining day of the summer sped by very fast. Everyday was like a dream come true for Harry. He was never so happy in his life. He really felt like a man. But soon the summer days would end, and he and Alice would have to part. On the last day they were together, they said their goodbyes and kissed for the very last time. He didn't want to leave her, but he knew he had to.
" Remember Harry, we will always be together. Remember the necklace I gave you," Harry hadn't forgotin about it. He hadn't taken it off since she gave it to him. Finally, they went their seprate directions. Harry hope he would see her soon, but doubted it. The next day he climbed into the backseat of his uncle's car, and they sped off to the train station.
Author's note:
In case you are wondering, I set it up so Ron's mom picked up Harry's school stuff and is meeting him at the station with all of it. Thank you for reading and please review.
