Dark Blue
Featuring Hermione Granger and Oliver Wood


Everyone had been telling her that she needs to slow down. Heck, she thought if she looked up at the sky she would have seen all the planets in a row suggesting that it was best for her to slow down. She was currently walking towards the Quidditch Pitch.

She remembers Ron saying, "How can anyone think under that condition?" She shook her head. Even though he has the emotional range of a teaspoon, she did have to agree with him on this. She honestly didn't know how she making through each day. She had finally reached the center of the field and lay down. She stared up at the night sky.

Even though they kept telling her that she needed to slow down, no one bothered to help her out. It was as if they were just adding more things for her to worry about. Sirius Black, Dementors, and her wacky schedule…She heard someone walking towards her, but didn't bother seeing who it was.

"Hermione?" the voice was much closer.

She tore her eyes away from the night sky and saw Oliver Wood looking down at her.

"Hey Oliver," she said softly.

"May I join you?" he asked.

"Yeah, sure," she said as she patted the grass next to her.

Both of them lay there side by side, not saying anything. Hours, minutes, or possibly even seconds went by before the silence was broken.

Without looking away at the night sky, Hermione said "This night's a perfect shade of dark blue."


A/N: Some Hermione/Oliver fluff. I guess this could be viewed as a friendship/(AND OR)relationship. It's your call. :D
