It really isn't "Goodbye" after all

Chapter 1: Goodbye Tears

On platform(9 3/4) Harry and Hermione had been hugging for about five minutes when they finally broke apart. Then she turned to face the ENTIRE Weasley family, her parents and Harry Potter. "I will miss you all so much!" , she said again taking the closest person she could find into her arms. (which was Harry by the way)

"We'll miss you too Hermione" said Harry.

"I don't see why you have to get so bloody emotional, we do this EVERY year!" Ron said getting a little fed up with the usual "goodbye" routine.

"Oh come off it Ron, you know by the time we get home you'll be crying you eyes out like a baby in the back seat" said a fed up with Ron, Ginny. They walked awayarguing about... well, abouthow much they hate each other.

"Oh Harry i'm going to miss you most of all!" Hermione said and once again pulling him into one of the tightest hugs he had ever experienced.

"Uhh...H-Hermione?" Harry said between breaths.

"Ya?" Hermione said still holding Harry close to her.

"We're going to see each other this summer, remember we're going to be staying with Ron and his family? And besides its not like you'll be in America that long, how long is it you're going to be there?" Harry asked.

Hermione pulled away and said, "Well I guess I will see you this summer, but still its too long to be gone from you two. It's like having newly-discovered brothers that I just don't want to let go of. And my parents are making me stay in America for TWO WHOLE WEEKS! Can you believe it! They said they wanted me to learn about a different culture and some other stuff."

"Its not going to be that bad, just think you're going to be in a whole different place, discovering new things, isn't that what you like best?" Harry asked looking into her large brown eyes.

"Ya...I guess, but still..." Hermione said but she was cut off by Harry's lips gently pressing themselves against hers. She was very surprised at this, she never in a million years thought that Harry had felt the same way she did towards him. She quickly shook off her thoughts about it and leaned more into the kiss. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him. As the minutes (and people on the platform that saw them making out) went by they finally parted. Both gasping for air.

"Well...t-that was quite enjoyable" a rather happy Hermione said.

"Ya, I umm...well, I should probably go now soooo, I will see you at Ron's?" Harry asked, rather happy himself. Hermione turned at the sound of her name. Her parents were calling her over to the wall where they would exit the platform.

"Bye Harry, I'll see you at Ron's" Hermione said blushing.

"Oh, and don't forget to write!" Harry yelled. She turned and gave him one of her genuine-rare smiles, that Harry loved so much, before disappearing into the stone wall.

Harry didn't realize that was the last time he would see her...well at least the real her.
