Hi, guys! I'm now officially bored of writing my other story, so I'll write this one instead. If any of you like Kingdom Hearts, I have a bunch of stories on that, so look at them. K? This chapter is dedicated to my BFF Brittany, cuz she rocks! Happy B-day and good luck with Shawn! I want to apologize ahead of time for this horrible chapter. I have writer's block, ok? (sobs)

Me: Alright, chapter 2 is up and running!

Harry: Really? Do I get to kiss Hermione yet?

Me: All in good time…all in good time.

Harry: I hate you…

Me: Me too…

"Does anything look even appetizing to you right now, because, I don't know about you, but I have major butterflies…" Harry said, glancing down at the table in the Great Hall. Hermione tilted her head as she looked, then, smiling, grabbed a piece of toast.

"Yep!" she replied, chewing on the end a bit. Harry grinned, and asked if she wanted to take a walk around the grounds instead of eating in the Great Hall. Hermione thought for a moment, then nodded, taking her toast with her.

"So…you guys came up with the exact same plan?" Ron asked, raising his eyebrows at Lavender. She nodded enthusiastically.

"Yeah! And you know what?"

"What?" Ron asked. Lavender grinned.

"She had a dream about him last night too." Ron blinked quickly several times.

"Seriously? Whoa…well, it will be easier to clear out the common room if there are more of us to do it…this…should be cool." He said, grinning.

"So, Harry…what do you want to do until we go back to the common room?" Hermione asked casually, trying to flip her hair so Harry noticed. He noticed this action, but took it as boredom instead of flirtation. (A/N: Boys…)

"Um… how 'bout we go to Hogsmeade? We are seventh year now, we can go by ourselves…" Harry blushed a bit, knowing that it would be the first time he had gone with her alone. Hermione felt color rise on her cheeks also, and nodded, accepting his offer.

"Ok…we are in Hogsmeade…where do we go now?" Harry asked, scratching the back of his head while ruffling his hair even more. Hermione grinned at his cuteness, and bit at her bottom lip seductively. Harry, being the observer that he was, actually noticed this ploy at his attention, and grinned at her warmly. They had been talking about Quidditch, which Hermione knew nothing about, on the way, so most of the walk had been silent. Now, the barriers were lifted, and the two began to laugh and joke…almost like a couple.

"Hmmm…I don't know, Harry. Where do we always go?" Hermione responded, her voice dripping with sarcasm. Harry made as if to smack her, but almost as he hit her arm, he pulled back and rumpled his hair unconsciously.

"Gotcha!" he smirked at her, and led her into the Three Broomsticks.

"Two butterbeers, please!" Harry said as they reached the counter. Madame Rosmerta, who almost always saw the two with Ron, grinned, and handed them the drinks.

"These are on the house. I was wondering when you two would get together…" Hermione blushed a deep shade of crimson, while Harry chocked on his butterbeer. After breathing deeply a few times, Harry glanced at Madam Rosmerta.

"We aren't together." Now it was Madam Rosmerta's turn to blush.

"Oh…well…it just seemed…you know…how do I say…'bye!" she hurried off to attend another customer. Hermione was staring determinedly at the counter, and neither of the two had the courage to speak for a while. When they Finally did remember their speech, they both spoke at once.

"That was odd."

"That was odd." Hermione blushed again, and allowed Harry to talk.

"Um…she has always been batty…" Hermione became a bit angry.

"Batty? BATTY? Batty to think you and I would be together?" she asked in a hurt voice. Great…I've blown it…Harry thought, and rubbed his temple.

"Well…um…" Hermione didn't let him finish.

"We do spend a bit of time together, and when I say a bit, I mean almost three quarters of my life! Isn't it logical that we could have grown close, and…maybe…fallen in…love?" when Harry could finally look at her, he noticed that there were tears streaming down her face. Bloody hell…

"Hermione…" all of a sudden, without thinking, Harry leaned in and pressed his lips to hers. Hermione's eyes widened the shock almost unbearable. When Harry broke off, which was quite soon because he was too scared to see her reaction, he got up from the counter and ran out of the bar screaming,

"I LOVE YOU!" Hermione was absolutely and positively shocked and also a bit embarrassed for the whole pub was staring at her. She grabbed her things, and headed back to the common room, because the plan was being set into motion.
