“Oh, Harry, come on!” Hermione cried out in exasperation.
Harry turned around quickly. “No! You know what? You can’t tell me that you didn’t feel anything.”
“Harry, that kiss changed nothing between us. Just because it was extremely—arousing?” She paused, her eyes blinking with surprise.
Harry stood there and blinked, shivering slightly. “Arousing? So you felt something?”
Hermione nodded, an irritated expression on her face. “A-a little?”
Harry raised an eyebrow. “A little?”
“Okay, a lot. Scorching was a very good description on your part.”
“So why?”
“Why what?”
“Why can’t we be together?”
Hermione clicked her jaw and folded her arms across her chest. “Because,” her voice cracking slightly.
Harry held in a growl and gritted his teeth. “‘Because’ isn’t an answer. You’re smart enough to make that assumption, though how much smarter you are than that I don’t know. It’s obvious you lack good decision making.”
“That’s not fair.”
“Damned right it isn’t!”
Hermione pinched her bottom lip with her index finger and thumb before dropping her hand to her thighs, smacking them in a motion of defeat once again. “We’re friends Harry. It might not work out and we’ll be ruined. We’re too good to go through that.”
“That is bullshit Hermione and you know it!” Harry’s voice rose with anger.
“Don’t swear.”
“Tell me—be serious!”
“I’m afraid-”
Harry jerked his head back and shook it, his posture showing how hurt he was by her words. “You’re afraid of me?” He asked, his voice cracking with emotion.
Tears started falling down her cheeks. “No, God, I’m not afraid of you.”
Harry walked forward and pulled her into a hug, shivering slightly as he allowed his hands to run along her spine. “Then what?”
Hermione dropped her face into the curve of Harry’s shoulder and held him tightly. “I’m afraid that you’ll die.”
Harry wrapped his arms tightly around her back, showing protection, letting her know he’d never let anything happen to her with just a small gesture. “You’re talking about Voldemort aren’t you?”
She nodded. “You’re so lucky all the time,” Hermione pulled away and caressed his face. “And one of these days, I’m so scared that you’re lucks going to run out. I love you like a friend and if I let myself love you like a-like a lover-I worry myself to sickness by just being an extremely good friend.”
“Nothing is going to happen to me!”
“You don’t know that! You couldn’t possibly!”
Harry stopped her as she turned away. “Haven’t you ever heard that the things you’re afraid of are usually the things that are most worth while?”
Hermione gave him a soft smile. “Harry-no.”
Harry grinned and cupped both sides of her face. “Hermione, I’m going to kiss you.”
“Harry wait,” she whispered, grabbing his wrists.
“Just kiss me. If we don’t feel anything like last time you can just pull away okay. No hard feelings.”
“Okay,” she said taking a deep shaky breath.
She was tired of fighting, tired of telling him no. For past month she’s managed to avoid this very confrontation, but now that it was here, now that it was happening, the one thing she wanted to do more than anything was to be in his arms, kissing him.
Harry dropped his lips down on hers, his hands slipping down her face and resting on the curve of her neck. Hermione wrapped her arms around his back, moaning softly. Harry slid his thumbs up and down her neck before he pulled away to see her reaction.
Her eyes were closed, her cheeks pink, her nose red from the cold, and her lips glistening. “Harry,” she sighed and gripped his shirt pulling him back into the kiss.
