Chapter 19: Seize the Day

As they made their way out of the house, Hermione picked up a throw off of the back of the couch. Hand in hand she and Harry headed towards the woods that were still in the perimeter of the Burrow. They were quite the only sound in the night was their shoes crunching the grass under their feet. Once the house was out of sight and they were completely alone Hermione stopped and dropped the blanket on the ground spreading it out. Her heart was pounding hard enough she was almost certain that Harry could hear it. "Harry stop." She said softly.

Harry turned and looked down at her, "Are you alright?" he asked. Hermione nodded she took a step towards him and unzipped his jacket pushing it over his shoulders. She ran her hands up his arms as he wrapped them around her waist pulling her against him. "Are you sure?" he asked his breath heavy.

"I'm sure." She said before standing up on her tip toes and kissing him softly.

It was all the conformation Harry needed he pulled her body firmly against his groaning at how good her soft body felt against his hard one. His hands roamed the lush curves of her hips his tongue thrusting slowly into her mouth. Her hands fisted in the front of his shirt and she pushed it up wanting to feel his skin under her bare hands. She'd never needed anything the way she needed Harry.

Before she could push the thought away a vision of Voldemort flying towards him entered her mind against her will. She'd been trying all night to block it from her mind and so far had luck. Now being with him like this it had crept up on her and before she knew it tears were falling down her cheeks.

Harry pulled back when he tasted Hermione's tears, " Hermione?" he asked looking down at her. She couldn't say anything as heart wrenching sobs rocked her body. "Baby….shhhhh it's okay." He said sitting down on the blanket with her in his arms. "It's okay we're both fine we're safe." He said stroking his hair holding her against him as tight as he possibly could. He hated this that he'd caused her to cry like this. "Hermione look at me." He said.

After a few seconds Hermione pulled back and looked up at him her big brown eyes filled with tears. He took her hand and pressed it to his heart which was pounding hard. "I'm alive."

Hermione didn't say anything as she pushed him back on the blanket her hand still on his heart and kissed him again. Harry wasn't sure if he should stop her or not. After all he didn't want her to do something she regretted because she thought that she had to. He decided to let her have control they wouldn't do anything she didn't want to. He wrapped her in his arms pulling her against him and kept kissing her softly.

"I love you Harry." She said pulling back and looking up at him.

"I love you too." He said looking into her eyes his hand cupping her cheek.

"Make love to me." She said looking up at him.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Harry when do I ever do anything that I'm not sure of?" she asked.

Harry took that as a yes he leaned down to kiss her pushing her jacket over her shoulders and fighting with the buttons of her shirt becoming frustrated he tore the shirt opened and groaned when he saw she only wore a silken camisole under it. He slid his hand up her side cupping her breast through the flimsy material causing her to grasp. She trailed kisses down the side of his neck tugging gently on his ear her hand sliding up the back of his tee shirt. Goose flesh broke out over his skin when her fingertips traced patterns against the sensitive skin of back.

Harry leaned down and used his teeth to pull the strap of her camisole down her shoulder before flicking his tongue over the peak of her breast causing her to gasp and sink her hand in his lush hair. He grinned he loved the way she responded to her touch. He looked up at her taking her nipple into his mouth teasing it gently his free hand sliding down her flat stomach to the fasten of her jeans.

Hermione pushed his hand out of the way and undone her jeans for him. She closed her eyes and gasped when his hand slid inside of them and arched off of the ground. She loved what he was doing to her the way he was making her feel. Nothing else mattered, not the Horcruxes or Voldemort or that goddamned war. Nothing existed but the two of them in this perfect moment.

He groaned when his hand slid into her panties and he felt how wet she was for him. His fingertip pressed against her clit and he teased her gently. He bit back the smug grin at her responses, he knew that Hermione was a virgin and while he wasn't far from being one himself the idea of being the only man to ever touch her was appealing. "You're so fucking beautiful like this." He groaned.

"Harry!" Hermione gasped looking up at him watching him as she wiggled against his hand. She felt like a fire was building in her body and she didn't know how much more she could handle.

"That's my girl." He groaned gently sliding his finger into her and teased her clit with his thumb.

She threw her head back and screamed his name her hot cream coating his fingers her body still trembling in pleasure. Harry let her ride out her orgasm before slowly undressing her and then sheading his own clothes. He came over top of her and kissed her hungrily. "I love you so much Hermione Granger." He groaned as he pressed the head of his cock against her core and started to slide into her slowly.

"Go easy Harry." She looked up at him her fingertips sliding down his spine.

"I don't want to hurt you." He looked down at her.

"I trust you Harry." She said leaning up and kissing him softly.

That was all the encouragement he needed. Slowly he eased himself inside of her until he reached her hymen and paused giving her body time to adjust. Hermione knew that he was trying to keep from hurting her and that meant more to her than anything. She looked up at him her eyes locking with his beautiful green ones before. She rocked her hips against his, her nails dug into his back as her hymen broke.

"Damnit Hermione." He half groaned half scolded.

"You didn't want to hurt me." She said her voice quivering. "So I did it for you."

Harry leaned down and kissed her soft his arms tightening around her. Slowly he pulled out and slid slowly back into her causing them both to gasp. He claimed her slowly his hands sliding over her body his tongue thrusting into her mouth. He'd never felt anything like this when he'd been with Cho it hadn't been this intense.

Hermione's nails bit into his back her long legs wrapped around him. Before long she was arching off of the ground screaming his name as she came again this time with such force that it milked Harry of his own pleasure. He rolled off of her pulling her across him. He loved this, the intimacy of the moment. He was glad that he hadn't drug her off to some abandoned part of the castle for some rushed tryst. "I love you." He said leaning down to kiss her slowly.

Hermione moaned softly kissing him back, "I love you too.'

"Are you cold?" he asked as the night wind blew over them causing their already overly sensitive skin to react.

"I don't think I'll ever be cold again." She said looking up at him.

"Yeah?" he grinned but still wrapped the end of the blanket around them.

"Yeah." She smiled laying her head on his chest. "I'm not going to move from this spot….ever….Voldemort can go bloody well fuck himself."

Harry kissed her forehead and laughed as he wrapped his arms around her. "I like that."

"Me too." She said closing her eyes.

Harry held Hermione watching her while she slept he knew that he should probably wake her and take her back to the house where she could rest more comfortably in her bed. The selfish part of him refused he didn't want anything to ruin this moment. Besides he wasn't in the least bit done with her yet.

Author's Note: I think after Ron interrupted them at Hogwarts this was long time coming….no pun intended. Which I was been a dirty tease then this was actually planned to happen like this all along….don't forget to read and review….
