Hey guys! Sorry if I took too long to update, I couldn't think of the right way to write this chapter. Well, I don't really have much more to say, hope ya like! Enjoy!
Hermione woke up bright and early the next morning, then remembered the events that happened the night before. Harry lay beside her, still fast asleep. Hermione carefully slid off the bed and walked over to the window. She felt Harrys arms wrap around her waist.
"Hey" He whispered in her ear.
Hermione turned her face towards him.
"Hey...sorry, I didn't mean to wake you"
"Don't worry about it. Are you alright?"
"I'm fine" Hermione assured him.
Hermione felt Harry brush his lips against her neck.
"So, are we back together?"
Hermione giggled, then pressed her lips against his. Harry sure could be clueless sometimes.
"Only if you promise to stay away from that tramp"
"Promise"
Hermione leaned in to kiss Harry once more, but at that exact moment, Harmony walked in.
"Speaking of the devil" Hermione mumbled, Harry chuckled.
"Well, I see you two are back together" Harmony started.
Hermione's blood started to boil.
"Maybe I could change your mind"
Harmony walked up to Harry and wrapped her arms around him. Hermione could feel her anger quickly rising in her, and she just couldn't take it anymore.
"I doubt --"
SLAP!
So she released it. Harry stared at, the now whimpering, Harmony, in shock, then turned to Hermione. Hermione took one last look at Harmony, and smiled feeling very pleased with herself, then Harry and her left the cabin to finally have some fun this summer.
Harry and Hermione spent the whole day together. For once this summer, Hermione finally felt at ease. Especially now, as Harry and Hermione lay in front of the lake and watch the sunset. Hermione leaned against Harrys chest and listened to the rhythum of his heartbeat. They had been sitting here is silence for almost 15 minutes, Hermione had to break it.
"What are you thinking about?" She asked, turning around to face Harry. He smiled.
"You"
Hermione returned the smile.
"Come on" Hermione said, pulling Harry up by the arm. "I have an idea"
Hermione dragged Harry to a nearby oak tree. Harry raised his eyebrow at her. Hermione searched the grounds, then found a sharp rock and handed it to Harry. He stared at Hermione with his eyebrow still raised.
"Carve your name in the tree" Hermione explained.
Harry smiled, then carved the initials HP on the tree. Hermione did the same with her initials, right under Harry's. She then carved a little heart in-between HP and HG. While Hermione was busy with that, Harry's thoughts were elsewhere. When Hermione finished, she caught Harry staring out at the lake.
"What?" She asked.
"I have a better idea" Harry said. "Come on" Harry then began walking at a fast pace towards the lake.
"Harry, what has gotten into you?" Hermione giggled, as she walked faster to keep up.
Finally they had reached the lake, and Harry came to an abrupt halt. He turned to Hermione and smiled mischieviously.
"Lets go swimming"
"Harry don't be ridiculous. We have nothing to swim in"
Harry shrugged his shoulders. "So"
"What kind of swimming?" Hermione asked, remembering that mischievious grin.
Harrys smile grew wider. Hermione knew exactly what Harry had meant. Skinny dipping.
"Harry, I don't know..." Hermiones voice trailed off.
"Hermione, no ones going to see us" Harry assured her.
"Harry, you know our luck. We'll get caught!"
"Hermione, we have to do one last adventurous thing before we leave this place for good. Something we'll remember"
Harry was right. This was, for sure, their last summer at Camp Patronus. They may never see each other again. Hermine thought some more as she stared at the ripples of her reflection in the water.
"Ok" She said, very close to a whisper.
"Hermione, I'm not going to make you do this. You don't have to if you don't want to"
"No" Hermione said, smiling. "I want to. You go first"
Harry did so. Harry removed his shirt, then dived into the water, (splashing Hermione) and removed the rest of his clothing, and tossed them onto the dock. Hermione did the same, except she got into the water first before she took off her clothes. She submerged herself down into the water so she couldn't be seen, then stuck her head out. ONLY her head. It was so dark, so she couldn't really see anything. She could barely see Harry. The only way she found him was when he splashed her in the face.
"Hey!" Hermione giggled, splashing him back.
She suddenly felt much more relaxed, and when she finally did find Harry, she leaned in and kissed him. When she pulled away, she looked into Harrys emerald green eyes and thought how silly she was for being shy around him. She then knew that things could only go uphill from here.
Hermione got in at about 1 o'clock in the morning. Ginny seemed to be waiting for her.
"Where were you?" She asked.
"With--"
"Harry?" Ginny finished. "So you two aren't fighting anymore?"
"No" Hermine said, smiling.
"What'd you do?" Ginny asked.
"Nothing. We just went swimming"
"And didn't get caught. I'm impressed" Ginny eyed Hermione.
"What?" Hermione asked, nervously.
"Funny, your bathing suit is right here--" Ginny held up Hermiones white polka dotted bikini "-- but your clothes aren't the least bit wet"
'The jig is up' Hermione thought. She sighed and sat down on the bed next to Ginny.
"We went skinny dipping. So sue me"
Ginny kept staring.
"We didn't do anything, I swear" Hermione assured her.
Ginny just nodded her head, then got up and walked out of the cabin. She seemed to be in a hurry.
'That was a little weird' Hermione thought.
"What's wrong, Hermione?" Parvati asked, just entering the cabin.
"Where have you been?" Hermione demanded.
"Calm down, Hermione. You sound like my mother"
"Sorry" Hermione said, then sighed and plopped down on her bed.
"What's up?" Parvati asked, joining Hermione.
"Ginny was acting so weird. It was almost like she was dissapointed in me"
"What's you do this time?"
"It's not important"
"Wait, did you just say that Ginny just left here?"
"Yeah, why?"
"That's impossible. I just left the boys cabin and she was there with Dean"
"Rubbish"
"No, I'm serious. She's been there all night"
Harmony's POV
Harmony quickly hurried out of cabin 7 as she began to feel herself transforming back.
'Polyjuice Potion, comes in handy for anything' Harmony thought. 'Now I've got that girl right where I want her'. Harmony finally reached cabin 9 and pounded on the door. A grumpy looking Pansy staggered out of the cabin.
"Do you know what time it is?" She snapped, while rubbing her eyes.
"It doesn't matter. I have to tell you something"
Harmony then dragged her friend into the cabin and shut the door behind her.
"You will never guess what I found out"
"What?" Pansy said, in a careless voice.
"I found out why Hermione was with Harry tonight"
"Oh, so the polyjuice potion worked?"
"Yeah, it was perfect. Good thing the camp had extra"
The two girls laughed, and so did Hermione, who just happened to be standing behind the door with a tape recorder.
I hope you liked this chapter. Sorry if my spelling was crappy, I don't have spell check. The next chapter will be the final, and if you need me to send you the first Camp Patronus then just e-mail me, or say something in a review. E-mail would probably be best, 'cause then I would already have your e-mail address. PLEASE R/R!
