Chapter 2-Declerations

Hermione looked up from a book to see the fireplace of number 12 Grimmauld palace glowing green. Suddenly Harry appeared covered in ashes. "Hi Harry" she said before wrapping him in a bone crushing hug to rival Hagrids.

"Missed you to Mione" said Harry

"Hi Harry" she squealed leaning closer to his ear she whispered "I got your letter. See you when their asleep." With that she was off helping Mrs. Weasley cook dinner. Though she wasn't much of a cook she helped do simple tasks.

Harry dragged his trunk up to his room and began unpacking. Stuffing the last of his socks into the drawer, he fell backwards onto the bed and began thinking about what to say to Hermione

"Crap, darn salad is burning"

"Uhh Hermione salad isn't supposed to burn" Fred said snickering

"Oh shut up Fred you couldn't do any better!"

"Really now?" He pulled out his wand and whipped up a salad with fresh spring strawberries and crisp lettuce greens with a splash of ranch dressing.

"Fine Chef Boyardee, do it yourself!" and with that Hermione briskly returned to the living room and her book.

Ginny smiled remembering the time Hermione had almost set her parents summer cottage on fire making breakfast.

Everyone gathered around the table and Mr.Weasley began saying grace

"Dear God thank you for this wonderful meal and bless us all, Amen"

"Amen" came a chorus from around the table.

"Hash sha topatoes"

"Honestly Ron if you want something try talking when your isn't full."

"When would that be" Harry chimed in earning a glare from Ron.

"Sorry Hermes"

"Ronald Weasley if you call me that ever again I'll hex you into next year!"

Harry smirked. He loved the way she looked when she was angry.

The arguing continued throughout the remainder of the meal and after the kitchen had been cleaned up they all went upstairs to change into their pajamas and settled down in the living room to watch "Scream 3" that muggle horror movie that was Tonk's favorite. When the flick ended everyone went to bed except Harry and Hermione.

Moving to sit on the loveseat next to him she looked at him questioningly. "So Harry what did you need to tell me?"

"Uhh I really don't know how to tell you but I think that I'mfallinginlovewithyou," Saying the last part fast due to his nervousness "and I was wondering if you would go out with me?"

"Oh Harry!" she said "I feel the same and of course I'll go out with you!"

Harry almost jumped up and down with excitement, and in and instant his lips were upon hers "Merlin her lips are soft" he thought. Her hand moved to his head and began playing with his hair as his found its way to her waist.

"Hem hem," came a voice from the doorway. The two teens sprang apart to find Remus and Tonks smiling at them.

"Harry don't tell me that it's not what I think it is because I know it is" Said Moony grinning larger by the second.

"Please don't tell anyone Moony we don't want it spread everywhere yet" Harry pleaded

"If you say so" said Tonks, "But if you two keep this up they will find out so you might as well tell them sooner than later.

"We will" said Hermione and with that they all went to bed.
