Chasing Harry Day 10
I haven't talked to Harry since day seven becaue he is always with Hermione and won't come to see me. Because of this I've been all alone in my dorms crying as quietly as I can so that the other girls in my dorms don't notice.
Tonight I had been walking around the school and was about to use a hidden passage to get to the Hufflepuff hall fast because I wanted to go to the kitchens but when I went to go in the passage I saw Hermione all over Harry. The sound of my heart breaking was probably heard all over England to see them kissing. I turned and ran and kept running, without realising I'd gone right out the big wooden doors and around the lake. I finally stopped and sat down on a rock high above the lake with the Forbidden Forest behind me. I was shaking and crying and I started to sing. I sang my heart out and my voice carried across the lake like a siren. I saw a figure coming towards me and stopped, and then I recognised it as Harry. I turned away from him though, refusing to look at him.
"Kiera…" he said.
"What? Go away. Shouldn't you be off making out with Hermione or something?"
"I wasn't!"
"It sure looked like that to me!"
"No, Kiera…" he put a hand on my shoulder and sighed, sitting down on the rock beside me. "It wasn't like that. It's you I love Kiera. I was going down to the dungeons today to find you but Hermione followed me secretly and when I was in the passage suddenly just jumped on me, you know? And at that very minute you came in and saw us before I had the chance to push her off. I realise how it must've looked…"
"What did you say?" I asked him quietly.
"What? I realise how it must've looked?"
"No, earlier."
"Oh that. It's you I love Kiera. I love you. I thought you would already have figured that out. You are beautiful and smart and funny and kind and I would be stupid not to love you."
"I love you too Harry," I said.
And we kissed.
And as we kissed I felt I could hear my song echoing in the night around us. The night and my song.
