I do not own Harry Potter or the songs in this story
Harry Potter and the Talent Show
The Concert:
Harry was confused, he could not for the life of him figure out why the little Charms professor was upset with him.
"Mister Potter I am very upset with you. How long have you been able to sing like that?" The professor stared at him.
"Honestly Professor I didn't think I was all that good. I was never allowed to sing at home unless my Aunt and Uncle were gone so I never had anyone to tell me if I was good or not." Harry said shyly.
"Ok Mister Potter I will except that explanation, and will allow you to make it up to me if you would like." The half-goblin said.
"Sure professor anything you want." Harry said.
"Goody, but words of warning Mister Potter always listen to the demand before you agree. I was gonna have you help me with the choir this year, but since you said anything I think I will give you a free lesson in negotiations. You will now perform a concert for your peers the night before the leaving feast." Flitwick grinned.
"Professor, do you think that's fair?" Harry whined.
"Harry life is not fair, you above all people should know that." Flitwick said plainly.
"Man, I'm never going anywhere without Mione again. The one time I do I get conned into do a concert." Harry chuckled.
"You're learning Mister Potter." The tiny Professor stated.

The year flew by for Harry much to his horror, but things between him and Hermione grew deeper and deeper. They spent every waking hour with each other. Ron soon realized his mistake and handled it well he still felt betrayed at times but Harry put a stop to that real quick. He reminded Ron that he Harry had given Ron his chance and Ron screwed it up himself with no interference from Harry.
Ginny however was another matter altogether. She had sat around the common room glaring at the couple constantly. It took three weeks before Hermione confronted her. She asked Ginny a series of questions about Harry and the redhead failed miserably. The questions ranged from what was Harry's cousin's name to what was Harry's favorite song. Hermione finally got it through to Ginny that she was in love with the idea of Harry and not Harry himself. With the concert a week away Harry began going to the Room of Requirement to rehearse his act. After he had finalized his show he had one more thing to do and he needed Dumbledore's help for the last part. The night before the performance he spoke with the Headmaster and got his help with the "plan."

"Welcome students and teachers alike, tonight we have a very special treat for all your hard work. Tonight Mister Potter will be preforming a live concert for you; he has asked me to let you know that when he is done with the body of the concert, he will only do one encore performance. Now if you will all stand I will redo the seats in the same fashion as it was during the talent show, with one exception Miss Granger, you will not be in the corner this time, you my dear, will be in the center seat." Albus said. He waved his hands and the normal house tables again disappeared to be replaced with small two person tables. Hermione was then escorted to the seat of honor by the headmaster.
Professor Flitwick step to center stage and addressed the audience.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, it is my great pleasure to give you…Harry Potter!"
The lights dimmed and smoke rose from the stage. Harry stepped out of the fog and began to sing.
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Ol' Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
Harry was staring directly at Hermione as he sang and she knew that those words although someone else's were his words to her.
I've seen the seven wonders of the world
I've seen the beauty of diamonds and pearls
But they mean nothing baby
Your love amazes me
I've seen a sunset that would make you cry
And colors of the rainbow, reaching cross the sky
The moon in all its
phases
Your love amazes me
Don't you ever doubt this love of mine
You're the only one for me
You give me hope
You give me reason
You give me something to believe in
Forever faithfully
Your love amazes me
I prayed for miracles that never came
I got down on my knees out in the pouring rain
But only you could save me
Your love amazes me
Don't you ever doubt this love of mine
You're the only one for me
You give me hope
You give me reason
You give me something to believe in
Forever faithfully
Your love amazes me
Your love
But only you could save me
Your love amazes me
Harry was now really getting into the performance and had an idea to personalize his next song.
Well, everybody talks about the California quakes
but the first time I ever felt the earth shake
was in Miami
When Mione touched me
Aw, it shook me
I told her I loved her and I wanted to stay
But she said, "Be Sure, and I'll call you in L.A."
Even in the taxi
I could hear my telephone ring
Calling me from Miami
Hermione
What took you so long
I thought you'd never call
Miami, Hermione
Miami, Hermione loves me after all
Now Hermione just called and said, "Please come back"
I said, "I'm on my way babe I aint even unpacked"
"I want you, I love you", that's all she had to say
Good-bye L.A.
Now once again I'm Miami bound
can't wait till this plane touches down
because I know Hermione will be waiting
at that Miami gate
I can't wait
Miami, Hermione
what took you so long I thought you'd never call
Miami, Hermione
Miami, Hermione
Loves me after all
Miami, Hermione loves me after all
Harry bowed a deep bow and walked behind the curtain that separated him from the audience.
The student body went wild. Well the girls for sure some of the guys thought it was a little mushy for their taste but they enjoyed it any way.
Some of the girls began to chant and before long the whole school was chanting. "Encore! Encore!"
Harry came out again this time carrying a single red rose. Hermione was so caught up in the performance she did not notice that the tables around her had slowly moved back away from her, just the way Harry had asked Dumbledore to do. He approached Hermione and got down on one knee when the music started.
He tilted the rose back towards his face like it was a microphone.
I think I've waited long enough,
Let enough time go by,
to know just what I need in my life.
When I look at you right now,
my heart is telling me why,
you're the only one for me.
An' tonight, if you let me ask you this,
With Heaven as my witness:
As he sang the next line he tilted the rose forward so she could see the ring.
Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?
All that I see in your eyes,
Let me save deep inside,
'Cause I don't wanna lose one moment of you.
Looking' like the picture in my dreams,
One that I see coming' true.
'Cause you're dreaming the same dream I do.
Please let me ask you this,
All of Heaven as my witness:
Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?
You're the only thing I've ever been this sure of.
More than anything I've ever wanted before.
Will you marry me?
I wanna be with you for all eternity.
I swear my love for you will always be.
Here, on bended knee,
Baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?
Will you marry me?
Oh.
(Will you marry me?)
Will you marry me?
(I wanna be with you for all eternity.)
Be with you.
(I swear my,) love for you will always be.
Right here, on bended knee,
Oh, baby, I'm asking, please,
Will you marry me?
Every student, every teacher, every house elf, and every ghost even Peeves held their breath waiting for Hermione's answer. She finally tore her eyes away from the ring and looked in to Harry's.
"Yes" she whispered.
"Yes" she said a little louder.
"Oh Merlin Yes" she screamed as she flung herself forward into Harry's waiting arms.
Ten years later:
Harry looked deep into Hermione's eyes as she awoke.
"Happy Anniversary, My love." Harry leaned down and kissed her with the same passion as that first kiss.
"Happy Anniversary, Harry I have a present for you, close your eyes." Hermione said.
Harry closed his eyes and felt the familiar shape of the item she had place into his hand. He began smiling as soon as he felt the small stick with the two pink lines.
"I love you Mione." Harry said as he placed the little test next to the five he already had.
"I love you too Harry, I promised you a family and I intend on giving you a big one." She said with a gleam in her eyes.
