Harry was walking near the grounds, where all the gril gates and bushes are.
Just another couples spot, he snorted.
Others are in the canteen eating lunch, but he was not in the mood.
It may be because of his mood, which is caused due to his two best mates. Ron and Hermione.
Hermione was avoiding everyone, it had been two days since they fought before an almost entire college... since that day, she was seen miserable.
She will glare or look with an expression of something he couldn't place it what at ron, whenever he is not looking, never stays more than five minutes if they were in the same room. Ron is not any better.
There fighting is getting beyond a limit. If he was with one of them, they start complaining about the others.
Hermione for the first time in her life, got low marks in yesterday's class test. He heard she just started to cry after seeing her marks then and there. She wouldn't even eat food properly, always in library or in any class reading and reading.
Ron snaps whoever or whatever he set his eyes, he even started a fight with a Senior student, who unfortunately lost his one good teeth in the fight. If it wasn't for coach remus, he would have died in the hands of ron. Honestly he himself is half scared to be with ron, that guy bloody lose his mind, whenever he is angry on someone, especially Hermione.
And there is Pansy Parkinson, two nights back she decided they needed a break or something, from whatever they were doing. She looked miserable for some reason and he don't know why, well he didn't asked for it. He sighed.
Damn he felt miserable himself, draco malfoy did it with his girlfriend... It's not a proud thing to say, but that wanker had the gut to smile smugly. If ron was there he is sure the smile wouldn't even last in his face for a second.
He was just about to end his self torment walk and turn around, when he saw a view of red hair on his line of view and know it was Ginny.
He moved towards the area and his footsteps must have alerted her because he saw her hastily wiping her face. Was she crying?
"Hey" he said, standing beside her. She looked up to find harry standing and wished him in a small voice.
She moved sideways, leaving some place and gesturing him to sit. He hesitantly did feeling all nervous to be in a close proximity and alone with her.
He was shocked to see, her eyes were red and puffy, just the same as Hermione's. What was happening here, did all the girls are trying to be miserable now.
"Had your lunch" she looked not looking at him.
"Not in the mood for lunch"
"Oh"
"Ginny, have you been crying?" Stupid... why would she have red and puffy eyes then.
She laughed a hollow smile and sniffed, but he kept on looking at her. She sighed "it's just draco" she said.
He felt suddenly angry, did he hurt her? Then without thinking he asked curiously "Did he hurt you" .
Ginny looked at him with wide eyes and smiled affectionately "No. He's a nice guy, he wouldn't".
"Oh" Nice guy? His stomach dropped. "Then what is it?" Again stupid... now she is going to tell him all the way they were having fun in the bedrooms, just like malfoy.
"It's just... You wouldn't tell anyone right?" Wow, a secret! Their secret. "Because I don't want anyone to know this especially draco".
"Of course, i won't".
She looked around, after being sure that no one is around "I don't think I love draco" she said sadly.
Harry hurt jumped "Um... you don't love him"
She looked at him "I like him, he is good guy, he does everything to keep me happy... but I didn't feel it. At first we started dating, i thought... may it will work out and we'll be the happy couple. You know after we did it, nearly the whole week, I'm sure i don't love him".
"Well maybe you should breakup with him then" he asked hopeful and with a bit of anger at the news of them doing it for a week.
"I don't think, that's easy. He loves me so much, i want this to work between us... Some people will say i just used him for his money or something, there are so many things harry".
"Well that's just great then, keep trying" he snapped irritated.
She looked at him with wide eyes, he sighed "I'm sorry ginny. It's just everyone around me are miserable and it makes me miserable"
She smiled, tight lipped "well then, how about we go out tomorrow..."
Again his heart jumped in joy "Sure" he said quickly.
Ginny raised her eyebrows and laughed "Ok, let's go back inside, don't want to miss next class"
"Yeah" he said and walked with her, all the while both of them smiling at each other. Both of them oblivious to someone was watching them all the while.
Hermione was sitting in her bed, with her knees dawn to her chest. Multiple books lying on her bed, but forgotten.
Angry tears were still rolling down her cheeks, her eyes looked swollen. She felt miserable, she missed him.
A bile rised on her throat, just thinking about him, his kiss, their kiss, first kiss.
But it's useless anyway, they were just... Friends with benefits right. That's what she was to him. A practice toy, she felt disgusted.
She spend, the last two, three days, glaring at him without him looking and that strange feeling of longing. Oh how she missed him, his smile, being with him, his warmth, his heat, his lips, how much she loved him...did she love him she sighed. She just wanted to be near him again.
It is now clear to herself she is in love with him, there is no reason to tell lies to herself, she felt pathetic. Falling deeply for a guy, who just see you as nothing more than a practice. God she kissed him, to get him ready for another girl. How is it possible to fall in love with someone with this little time, spending time with him was the easiest thing she ever done, it felt so easy.
Ron don't even acknowledge her these days, no messages, no phone calls, no visits. A new set of tears rolled down her cheeks again.
Her phone ringed, she picked it up to see viktor calling her. She switched it off, she had been avoiding him too, all these were his fault. He is the reason ron is moving away from her.
"Sweetheart, ronald is here" her mum called and Hermione thought her heart just broke and fixed itself again. She jumped up and looked herself in the mirror, she looked worse.
She fumbled for whatever she could fine, brushing her bushy mess, mascara and lipstick. She practically ran to sit on the bed, to look like she don't have a care in the world.
"Let him up mum" she called out, after some time.
But unknown to her, her parents and ron were looking at each other awkwardly, all the listening to her footsteps, where it felt like she was sprinting or like that.
Her father groaned his face behind his hands and Ron's face become a dark red. He smiled at her mother, who was smiling at him with a tight lip.
He finally started to ascend the stairs after she called. He entered her room to witness she sitting in her bed with her books around her as usual, not even a glance at him. He let the breath he didn't know, he was holding.
Oh how much he missed her, spending time with her. Sure he was angry at her for speaking with viktor, but she doesn't say she love him. Even if she loves viktor, he is the one she accepted to practice with. He maybe not seem like a datable guy to her, maybe he is nothing more than a practice toy, but atleast he is getting some.
Why would he be mad at her, she was right, he doesn't love her, maybe he like her... just a bit. But he know she doesn't love him, who in the hell would want him, especially a girl like hermione, pretty, brilliant, amazing. I'm just a poor bloke.
He spent the last two days thinking the same thing over and over, his only thoughts were hermione. He couldn't even think straight all the time, he even gave a customer money from the counter yesterday instead of getting it from them. For which he got a whack in the head from his mother.
"Are you just going to stand there or come in" hermione asked looking at him, interrupting his thoughts.
He walked over to her bed, ready to jump on it. But she didn't move her books, she just crossed her arms over her chest and looked away from him, like a five year old.
He almost smiled looking at her, she looked so Innocent and...sexy. 'Woah were did that come from' he asked himself. Sure she is beautiful and sexy, but you are her best friend! Just remember that.
"I'm sorry" he said quietly, not looking at her.
"I'm sorry, i didn't hear that" she said, looking at him as though challenging him.
Fuck, she is doing it voluntarily, he is sure she heard his apology.
He clenched his hands "I said, I'm sorry Hermione" he said not quietly.
"Sorry for what?" She smirked, provoking him more.
"For being harsh with you, I respect you more than just a friend with benefit and i care for you... so much, that's why I was angry at you for speaking with him. So please forgive me?" he said his ears red.
Her heart melt, but she is not going to let him off that easily "Oh, i don't know ron, you were so harsh to me, what if you hurt me again" she asked looking at her fingers.
Now that's too much "Oh come on mione, I'm practically begging you, standing in the middle of you bedroom" he snapped.
She felt like this what she wanted, they wanted... to fight, to let it all out, to vent the frustration.
"Don't you dare snap at me, you are the one to start this, you made me cry, maybe you deserve the same treatment" she said walking closer to him.
"Oh... so you want to hurt me ha? Ok come on do it, what you want? Ha? Are you going to beat me, punch me or something?" He asked smirking, standing closer to her now.
Out of a sudden, she just wanted to wipe that smirk on his face, so she did the next thing, without thinking, she slapped him.
Ron looked angrier and she looked at him with same fury, but with a wide shock eyes, she surprised herself, with that.
The next thing she know, ron grabbed her face on both sides and pulled her to him with so much ferocity. That's how their lips met.
And as soon as his lips touched hers all the coherent thoughts left her mind. She kissed him back with all the energy she saved from being frustrated and angry at him.
A throbbing pulsed through her and she clawed his shoulders, he gasped, surprised by her surge of strength. She took advantage, thrusting her tongue into his mouth, tasting a flavour of chocolate and ron.
She needed him, to be with him in his embrace, his warmth, for him to become a part of her. A need. She made him move back towards her bed, still kissing, all the while knowing she is weak when she was with him and lacked self-respect, their argument is not over yet and all she want to do is ravage him.
Ron fell to the bed and she climbed over, straddling him and attacked more vigorously.
Her hands crept down and moved under his shirt, touching his firm stomach and inching up towards his chest, nipping and kissing his neck and jaw. She licked his earlobe and he gasped
Ron couldn't take it anymore, he felt his dick becoming hard and a want of dominance. He flipped them over and attacked her neck with the same enthusiasm she showed, sucking at her soft skin.
She moaned his name "uh, Ron" bloody hell, she is moaning... moaning his name!.
He trailed down kisses from her neck to downwards, shifting her shirt of her shoulders, grazing his lips on her collarbone and felt her hum.
Hermione felt so bliss, she forgot all about the argument or an fight or where she is, just the feel of his body and lips so close. She wouldn't even mind being just a practice toy for him as long as he keep on touching and kissing her. She felt him peppering kisses on her shoulders, licking and sucking, tasting her as if she was his favourite food.
He lifted his head and looked into her eyes, amazed at the sight before him, she looked so sexy lying there, eyes closed, curls spread, lips parted, shirt rumpled off one shoulder and her left breasts heaving. He slowly slide his hands on her sides up and down feeling the swell of her ample breasts and curves. She gasped from the feel of his strong hands on her body.
"Ron more...touch me more" she moaned softly, her lust filled glazy eyes looking at him intently and he almost came.
He swallowed and looked down at her breasts in her bra with her nipple poking out through it. He softly and carefully started to caress it not to hurt her.
Hermione felt liquid warmth filling her and the pounding, she felt last time they kissed coming back doubled over. She bit her lip hard, to avoid the loud moans that threatened to spill. Which will sure to reach the ears of whole neighborhood.
He softly applied pressure and brushed the pad of his thumb on her nipple and she almost screamed from the pleasure she experienced, she realised that her panties are drenched.
"Hermione dear, can i come in?" the voice of her father called out from outside the door and they both jumped to get ready fast.
"Just a minute dad" she said hastily putting her shirt and proper her dress and ran to open the door.
Her father came to stand just inside the door and looked around the room "You two seemed to be busy, there was no sounds heard from here" he said pointedly looking at ron.
Hermione looked at him and her face heat up from embarrassment. He was sitting on the floor, a pillow on his lap, his red and he had a book in his hands (upside down) which he was pretending to read.
"Uh...I think, i should go. It's late... bye Hermione. Bye Mr. Granger" he said and quickly made his way out of the room, Hermione thought she could just die from laughter.
"Hey man" blaise said coming to stand beside draco after the chemistry class, who decided to stay back and finish a special assignment in the subject for an extra grade.
"Hey blaise" draco greeted and returned back to his work. "What's up".
"Did you and your bird... Ginny weasley broke up or something?" He asked curiously, making draco to entirely stop what he was doing and look at blaise.
"Why do you ask?".
"It's just, i saw her with potter yesterday and they were sort of flirting with each other."
Draco smiled "Zabini, I'm sure you are mistaken. We are friends, close friends. They must be just casually talking or something" he said and returned to his work.
But Zabini is not going to let it go that easily "Nah. I don't think so mate, you should be careful, she maybe cheating on you on your back. I don't even know why you are with her, she is beautiful yeah, but she is poor as hell, im sure she is using you for..." he couldn't finish because the next thing he know, all the air left his lungs.
Draco had him pinned to the wall, his muscular arms, his elbow on his throat, making his gasping for air.
"I'm sure that is nothing blaise... and i know my girlfriend, don't need your certificate. You will never talk about it with anyone, right?" Blaise nodded frantically "Because you know me blaise" with that draco left Zabini to fall to the ground but not before chocking him more.
He packed up his back with a spoiled mood and got out of the class, all the while convincing himself, nothing is going on behind his back.
"Is that what i think it is?" pansy asked excitedly, her mouth agape.
"What?" Hermione said scared and tried to push up the scarf she was wearing more tightly around her neck.
They both were alone standing before the rest room mirror, washing their face.
Pansy sighed "Oh come on..." she said and took of the scarf forcefully of Hermione's neck.
She was surprised to find one or two love bites.
Pansy smiled knowingly "Is that why you were so happy and talking to ron again?".
"I don't know what you are talking about, it's just an insect bite" hermione said covering her neck with the scarf again.
"Oh... so it's just a insect bite then?" Hermione nodded "So now are you going to become spider women or something?" She said making Hermione laugh.
"Seriously hermione!... It's not something bad and i know it's not an insect bite but an tall red head's".
She looked at Hermione who was smiling dreamily at the mirror "You seemed to be happy than i ever saw you" luna said emerging from one of the toilet stalls.
"You were here all along?" Pansy asked luna and she nodded.
Hermione groaned "Luna don't say anything to anyone about this, not even ginny" maybe especially Ginny!.
"Okay... but what i said is true, you are so happy" she said, making hermione smile and describe about last night events.
"You ready?" Ginny asked coming to stand beside harry, who was waiting for her at the parking after college hour.
He nodded at her beaming, she laughed at that.
"Why can't you just picked me up, from my home or something... why here?".
"And what would i say to your brothers, especially ron 'Hey mate, I'm going out with your sister to have a good time' and get my nose broken... sorry, no thanks" he said making her laugh.
"Good time, eh?" She asked and he looked down, his face becoming dark red. She laughed at that, he looked adorable when he do that.
They spent walking through narrow roads, catching busses, listening to songs.
Harry felt like he was flying, spending a day being close to the girl he loves, who is soon going to be single.
A new kind of happiness break through him, which he never felt before in the way they smiled at each other for no reason at all.
The people around them, some looked at them as they are loons and other smiled at them knowingly. They probably think, they are a couple. He felt proud at that.
He know why he was attracted to the girl in the first place, her attitude, not fearing anyone... sure hermione also did... but they both know how they felt about each other.
But Ginny... ginny is different, he felt his heart rate beating fast and new kind of sensation shot through him at the first sight of her, which only increased each time.
They get off the bus walked the pedestrians, she in the front and him following her, as he don't know the place as much as her. Also it's good, because he got a nice view of her uncovered legs and knee and the shape of her lovely bum, through her clothes. His cock twitched.
Shit. I'm a pervert!
They walked to front of a restaurant and ginny stood in front of the shop named madam puddifoots, looking around anxiously.
He looked at her curious, to know what happened "Gin... is something wrong?".
"The front is full" she said worried.
"So?".
"Oh... You don't know! That's Right. You don't know, i should've told you before, im so stupid" she muttered to herself and he smiled at that. "Well this place gives best food and most of the rich people comes here to eat, it is like the couples spot in our college, most of the couples in the town comes here to have a little... you know fun time" she whispered the last part.
"Oh" His eyes widened, a couples spot... Him and her, were the only thoughts in his mind, he felt excited.
"But the place in front is where the non couples sit, now it's full... I'm sorry harry, maybe we could just walk over to the next shop nearby. I'm sure creamy cones are still open" she said and turned around to walk to the said shop.
He stopped her by pulling her towards him by her arm "It's ok gin, there's nothing wrong. We'll just finish our business and get out" Like hell, he will.
"You don't mind then" she asked hopeful and he shook his head.
She sighed and smiled, they walked in. "Hello" the lady in the reception said.
"Umm... we need a table, can we get one here" ginny asked hopefully pointing to the front place of the shop.
"Oh, I'm sorry sweetheart. The front is full, but don't worry, there is place for couples like you in the back. Just order here and we'll serve you when we comes there" the women said beaming, obviously thinking them as a couple.
They ordered different varieties of food, pizzas, pastas and ice creams, harry don't want a ice cream, he needed a chill mojito to clear his hot head.
They entered the said couples place through the door and his panicked. The place was glowing dark red, he could almost see the couples some time talking, some eating, but mostly making out.
He felt ginny squeezed his hands and his dick stood painfully against the front of his pants. Don't do that!
"Again, I'm Really sorry harry" ginny again said quietly, looking down.
They sat in the corner trying to talk about different things and looking down embarrassed, when they caught some couples practically shagging in a love seat.
"Ginny, please at least allow me to pay here, you paid all the way down from college".
She shook her head, crossing arms over her chest "Sorry harry, no chance" Damn that weasley pride, just like her brother.
The food came they started to eat, not able to maintain a comfortable conversation or eye contact, eyes firmly set on the food.
Well that was again a good thing or not so good... Because on that time, his eyes automatically drawn the couples around them and to her legs under the table, looking so soft and shiny. His dick got hard, Oh hell No, No, No...
He finished his food and looked at her, she was licking the cone... the ice white cream, like a cat licking milk. .cream... He bit back a groan.
She had a bit of a white cream on the tip of her nose "Ginny" he called and she turned to look at her.
She was actually scared to see him this much close. When did he get this close? He pointed at her nose, but before she could do anything he wiped the cream using his fingers and licked it. Her eyes become the size of saucers.
This is not good, he is not turning away, he is looking at her intently straight to her eyes, his green eyes sparkling in the dark. When did his eyes become so bright. Well she is not turning away either. What is she doing? Turn away... Turn away, she chanted herself but she couldn't.
All the nerve in his body want to kiss her, just bloody kiss her, something inside him screamed. She is almost single. She will be yours!.
They were so close, nose touched, could feel each others breath on the others face.
"Harry" she whispered before closing her eyes, not knowing herself if it was to warn him or to encourage him.
Their lips met and her eyes closed. She gave herself over, letting the slide of his lips. With his tongue he showed her, a new pleasure she never felt before, she started to kiss him back.
It was that precise moment, the kiss turned desperate. Suddenly, they were biting and sucking and their teeth were clashing. They couldn't get close enough and Ginny was pulling on his hair in a wonderfully painful way, her nails piercing his scalp. His hands pressing into her amazing curves and he crushed her tender lips, but he couldn't get close enough.
Ginny moaned softly and it gave him the signal he needed to attack her neck. Harry was was painfully aroused.
Ginny was taking deep, ragged breaths... his lips and tongues started to kiss her deliciously and she realized she never felt this way, even when she was with Draco...
Suddenly she opened her eyes and tears started to blur her vision. She is cheating on draco, Oh god, she is a cheater.
Suddenly she pushed him away, took her money and thrown it at the table, briskly and quickly walked towards the exit, furiously wiping her angry tears.
Harry looked at her backside going away...with wide confused eyes, before reality set in. She is running away, he hurt her in some way.
He ran after her "Ginny..." he called when they were out of the restaurant.
She abruptly turned around facing him, her cheeks freely flowing tears "Harry, please let's not talk about this...I just have to go home, please" she pleaded.
He don't know what to do or say, so he did the one thing she asked him, being silent all the way back to their home. A silent harry and a crying Ginny.
