The Deatheater of the Dungeons
CHAPTER...WHAT CHAPTER IS THIS? OH YEAH...
CHAPTER 6
There he was again. She didn't even wait for him to come to her, but instead ran to him and kissed him passionately. He kissed her back and they held each other close. They held each other for what seemed like eternity. Then, he let go.
He grabbed her hands and knelt before her. He brought out a small mahogany box. He was smiling.
The dream Hermione started crying and shook her head. No.
no.
No.
NO!
Hermione woke up with a start. She was breathing fast. She reached up and touched her face. She was crying. She was miserable. And the some one who was there to make sure she was alright reached out to her. The one person she couldn't have delt with. Him.
"Hermione, are you all right?"
She sniffed and tears kept poaring down her cheeks. She shook her head. no. Then she remembered why she was crying, and cried some more.
"Are you hurt?"
She hiccuped, shook her head, changed her mind and nodded it, and ended up just getting her face all red and watery.
"Hermione!" She felt hands on her shoulders and some one shaking her. As if from a trance, she sniffed again and stopped crying. She reached up to dry her face with her hands.
"I'm s-sorry." She stammered. "I really am sorry. I never meant to- and it's so foolish, I just... Oh, but I'm just being so incredibly stupid to think about him like this-"
"Quiet. You are never stupid. You may be foolish, but you are not stupid."
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry. I don't know what I'm thinking. I don't know why he's in my dreams like this. I'm sorry..."
She was dreaming about some one else. So? Every one had dreams with people in them. Unless... this person was special to her.
"I think I love him, I just-"
That was all he heard. He left her there in her room, not hearing what she said next.
"I just...I love you."
I know this was really short, but the things I really get a kick out ofare giving out cliff hanger endings to chapters and letting the readers' minds go free to imagine just what's going on. If you don't like it, you'll just have to wait for the next chapter.
whitekidd-- Actually, you caught on to my plan. Strange how you people can read minds.
Mo D-- Yes! The only real thing that inspires me is reviews. And the fact that I would die without something else to do on the computer.
sallene-- Oh well, I guess we'll have to settle for being some less well known author who only writes fanfictions about ships that probably won't happen.
cdkobasiuk-- And with me being such a tease, I'll probably twist your words around and make that sound like it was an insult.
kcrazyk-- Thank you.
elektrikstorm-- Well, it would be pretty strange NOT to like Snape and still end up reading this story.
sexy she-devil-- Well. I can honestly say I am shocked that anyone called my writing perfect. Geez, I think it's one level up from crap. That's why I keep writing. Practice.
Fionna McKinnon-- You are always my reviewer who has everything to say. Not that that's a bad thing.
blackaces924-- All in good time, people. All in good time.
lovethelab-- Thank you. I'm glad you actually mentioned the perfect ending; I was starting to get worried no one liked it.
Winter Blaze-- Geez. Sometimes it's too hard to communicate properly. I meant your name. Your name is cool. I think my story's name has already been taken- that's the trouble with good ideas...
siriusluv-- Yes, she would have figured it out immediately. Hermione's not smart for nothing. The thing is, if she had found out, she would have told some one. And if she told some one, every one would be looking for him, and then... I could go on like this forever. The point is: It's more interesting this way.
Hermes-- Nice name. (YOUR NAME, NOT MY STORY'S!--see my response to Winter Blaze up top--)
me-- You can secretly wish for more all you want. My secret wish is that I will go to school one day in my favorite most daring outfit and no one will ask "Who barfed on you?"
animedorkette-- Thank you. And I like anime too. My name doesn't have to have a 'dorkette' in it though, because it's obvious that I'm on the nerd team at school when you hear "My wizard will POON your elf mage!" every five minutes.
