Anyway….on with the story…

Harry tiptoed down the hallway to Amanda's room. He knocked gently. Amanda opened the door. It looked like she had been crying when actually she had just splashed water on her face. (A/N: Disgusting, evil, vile woman!) Harry held out his arms.

"Look, sweetie, I'm sorry. Forgive me?"

Amanda rushed right into Harry's arms, pretending to sniff loudly. 'I knew he'd come…' (A/N: Insert evil laugh)

"Of course honey…"

Harry leaned down and kissed her "lovingly" and gently.

"Thanks, baby…"

Amanda pursed her lips and pulled Harry's head down and it turned into a full-blown make-out scene. (A/N: Sorry guys, I'm American…that's what we call them here…though you could pretend it said "full-blown snog.")

Harry fell for the kiss and thought he fell more deeply in love for Amanda. (A/N: NOT! But that's what he thought…) After all, he was a 26-year-old man. What kind of man didn't like it when a physically attractive woman decided to kiss (A/N: Once again guys, America…you could substitute kiss for snog though…whatever you like) them senseless. Unfortunately, it was the physically attractive part that Harry fell for. It was a common mistake that men made, falling for the outside, rather than what's inside. The Boy-Who-Lived had made this mistake. (A/N: Aww…that's okay…he'll learn later…) He knew it was wrong, deep, deep down in his heart, but he couldn't think right now, seeing how his old crush/love had just appeared out of nowhere when he hadn't seen her for 8 years…and the fact his mouth was currently on someone else's.

Suddenly, the moment was broken by a loud sob, followed by a slam of a door. (A/N: I'll give you one guess to figure out who that was.) Harry and Amanda broke apart, confused. Amanda's eyes focused as she realized whom it had been. She stalked over to Hermione's door, leaving behind a dazed Harry.

"Well, honey, you're just going to have to get used to it!" Amanda shouted at the door. "No one loves you and Harry is mine! All mine!"

There was no answer. Amanda came back to Harry and placed her hands on his chest.

"Now, where were we?" she purred sweetly.

Harry gently pushed Amanda away. The moment had faded. Amanda became angry and was about to throw a temper tantrum when Harry saw the look on her face.

"I'm just not in the mood anymore…How about we go out for dinner tonight?"

Amanda immediately brightened up. A dinner would have to be in a public place, meaning that people would see her with the famous Harry Potter, otherwise known as the Boy-Who-Lived-and-Defeated-You-Know-Who.

"Does she have to come?"

Harry thought about it and decided it was probably best to leave Hermione alone for the moment. His heart longed to be with her, but his brain was still a bit mad and wouldn't allow him to say yes. (A/N: Yes, I know, makes no sense whatsoever.)

"No, I guess not…" answered Harry sadly.

"Good…I have to get ready now." Amanda had brightened up considerably.

"So around six I'll meet you by the front door?"

"Six?" squealed Amanda. "I really have to go and get ready now." She ran into her room, leaving behind a bewildered Harry. He looked at his watch.

"But it's only 2!"

He walked away slowly. 'Women! So bloody confusing!'

Harry went down the stairs slowly, still thinking. 'What about Hermione? Why did she cry out like that? Maybe I should go and talk to her. She doesn't exactly know about Amanda and me does she?'

As he was about to walk into the living room, a pair of arms into a closet suddenly pulled him.

"What the-?"

Inside the closet, it was dark, but someone snapped on the light switch. It was a spacious closet, large enough to fit 5 people. And inside, were two other people besides Harry, an old man and a young man.

"Bern? Al? What are you doing?"

Al raised his finger to his mouth. "Please, sir, quiet."

"What the hell do you want?" exclaimed Harry.

Bern shushed him. "It's about Hermione and Amanda."

"What about them?"

"Look, sir, we're afraid you're making the wrong choice with Amanda." Al started. "Anyone could see that Amanda doesn't really love you. Hermione, on the other hand, really does. You can see it in her eyes. She loves you for who you are, not because you're the Harry Potter or because you're rich."

"What? Are you trying to say that Amanda does?"

Bern spoke up. "Yes, we're afraid so, Mr. Potter."

"That is complete bull! Amanda loves me! She's told me before!" Harry couldn't believe he was arguing on behalf of Amanda, but nevertheless he continued to. "You have no right to say that!"

Al raised an eyebrow. "I thought just a few minutes ago you were telling Amanda she had no right to talk to Hermione like that."

"I was! And she doesn't!"

Bern sighed. Harry was still young, he still had many lessons to go through. "Look, sir, just trust me on this okay?"

"No! Hermione is just a friend okay? She has no feelings for me whatsoever, more than just a friend that is."

Al rolled his eyes. "Fine, if you decide to believe that. Now what about Amanda?"

Harry flushed. "I love Amanda and that is final. You two had better watch out for yourselves before I fire you and turn you out onto the streets!" He reached for the doorknob and flung the door open. Standing before him, was Hermione.

(A/N: Should I stop there? Nah, if I really want 10 reviews, I should keep going.)

She was in tears. She stood there looking at Harry.

"Harry?" her voice was in a whisper. "Is…that true? You love Amanda?" Without waiting for an answer, she ran up the stairs and into her room, slamming the door.

Harry stood there, his mouth open. He turned around to a slight cough. Al was leaning in the doorway of the closet, smiling.

"Well, you see sir? She does love you. She's jealous of Amanda."

"Whatever!" Harry closed his mouth and walked off to his favorite armchair.

Al stepped out into the hallway, followed by Bern. Both slapped their foreheads. Bern muttered to Al, "He's never going to get it is he mate?"

Al murmured back, "Let's hope he gets it. Neither of us want that snobby Amanda around right?"

"Right, but now ol' buddy, it's up to Harry to make the final decision." Both butlers went off to do their duties.

'You know,' started a little voice in Harry's heart, 'she really does love you.'

'So? If she really did, why did she marry Malfoy?' went another voice in his brain.

'That's a good question,' thought Harry.

'Come on, Potter, you know Hermione. She's one of those, never- follow-a-guy type of woman. She's one of those determined and independent people. All she wanted to do was prove she was right.'

'But she wasn't. And now you expect Harry to accept her again? After she broke his heart?'

'Why not? Potter, you know deep inside you love her…'

'So what? Amanda is much more pretty.'

'Only on the outside! Look at Hermione! You can honestly she cares for you Potter!'

'Why does this sound like Bern's and Al's lecture?'

'Because they're right and you know it!'

'Hmph! Whatever!'

Harry gripped his head. "Stop it!" he roared.

Al popped his head into the room, grinning. "Alright there Mr. Potter?"

Harry glared at him. "I'm fine, just go back…to do whatever you're doing."

After Al left, he leaned back in his chair and fell asleep, his brain and heart still arguing.

Okeydokey, must get back to homework and what not! Next chapter will be Amanda's and Harry's date, probably the second to last chapter…

10 reviews means update in 2 weeks

15 reviews means update in 1 1/2 weeks

20 reviews means update in one week.

I honestly think that I probably won't even get close to 20 reviews…probably only like 5…but maybe…okay 20 reviews means update by…July 2nd! So review!
