Jae: Sorry for the long update everyone! I am literally full of projects
and essays (blame Snape!) that I had to delay this, but here I am now!
* Harry comes in Jae's room *
Jae: * Rolls eyes * doesn't anyone ever knock anymore?
Harry: * Grins * no, I don't think so
Jae: * Shakes her head, smiling *
Harry: Besides, you wanted to see me, right?
Jae: Yeah, you're right
Harry: So, what is it you wanted to see me for?
Jae: When mum was pregnant with me, how did you handle her mood swings?
Harry: * chuckles * It's quite funny, actually. I remember when she asked Ron to get her pizza straight from Italy, and when he came back and she found the pizza box half empty, Hermione transfigured him into a turtle and locked him in your room.
Jae: * laughs * what did Aunt Lavender say?
Harry: * Laughs * she just laughed.
Jae: * giggles * well guys, here's the last chapter! Hope you enjoy it!
Chapter 9: FINALLY!!!
Hermione blinked. Then all of a sudden, a gasp filled the air. Hermione and Harry turned to find that a crowd had once again gathered around them, and almost all the girls fainted. Hermione took her hand from Harry and covered her mouth, hiding a smile. Then she took Harry's hand once more.
"Let's talk at the lake," she said, dragging him to the portrait hole. Little did they know, four people followed them, hiding under Harry's invisibility cloak.
~*~
Harry and Hermione were now sitting together in front of the lake, leaning against a tree. No one spoke, and it was getting to Harry. 'It's either she feels the same or she doesn't. How hard is it to tell me that?' he thought to himself. When Harry was going to say his thought out loud, Hermione beat him to it.
"Do you really mean it?" she asked, looking straight at the lake. Harry watched Hermione carefully, trying to read her, but all he can see is an unreadable expression. He nodded, and realizing that Hermione might not see because she was staring at the lake so intensely, he decided to say it.
"Yes," he replied. Silence enveloped them once again, and finally, Harry got so fed up that he took Hermione's face in his hands, making her look at him.
"Don't you have anything to say?" he asked. Hermione bit her lip. After a moment, she decided to tell him.
"I love you too," she said. Harry looked down.
"I knew you wouldn't feel the same, but at least-" he stopped, realizing what she just said. He turned his gaze to her once again to find that Hermione was biting back a smile. Harry chuckled and ran a hand through his hair.
"Since when?" he asked. Hermione looked thoughtful.
"Ever since I could remember. I guess I've loved you for so long that I lost track on when I first realized it." She answered. Harry felt like jumping for joy. The woman he loves actually loves him back!
"What about you?" Hermione asked, breaking Harry's thoughts. Harry thought hard.
"Fourth year. You kissed me on the cheek, remember?" he said. When he saw Hermione nod, smiling at the memory, he continued.
"I thought you kissed me because it was out of friendship, and that was when I realized that that one simple gesture meant so much to me. Then it hit me. It meant so much to me because I was in love with you." When he looked at Hermione once again, he saw that she had tears in her eyes. Hermione flung herself at Harry, knocking both of them on the ground, Hermione on top of Harry.
"That's so sweet, Harry," Hermione whispered into his ear, hugging him tightly. Harry looked at Hermione's eyes once more.
"I love you," he said. Hermione's face broke into a soft smile.
"I love you too," she said. Harry leaned forward and placed his lips on hers ever so gently. But before he could even deepen the kiss, he felt something leave his wrist. Reluctantly, Harry broke of the kiss and looked at his wrist. The handcuffs were gone! Hermione got off of Harry and took the handcuffs that fell on the floor. Hermione looked at Harry.
"I'm actually going to miss being handcuffed with you," she said, eyes twinkling. Harry took out the pocketknife that Sirius gave him for his fourteenth birthday, took the handcuffs from Hermione and cut it in half. Hermione's jaw dropped.
"Why didn't you tell me you could cut the handcuffs in half?" she asked. Harry laughed.
"Trust me, I was trying so hard, but I guess the charms were only activated when they were attached to us." Harry said. Hermione took his pocketknife.
"But how could this cut the handcuffs?" she asked. Harry took the pocketknife from her.
"This is a special pocketknife. It could cut through anything," he explained, putting the pocketknife back to his pocket and gave Hermione one of handcuff that he sliced in half.
"A remembrance of what brought us together," he said, giving it to her. Hermione smiled and took it from him, but before she knew what was happening, Harry grabbed her wrist, pulling her to him and claiming her mouth once again. When they finally pulled apart, Harry stood up and offered his hand to Hermione, who gladly took it.
"I guess we should tell Lav, Gin, Ron and Draco about us now, huh?" Hermione said, resting her head to Harry's shoulder as they walked towards the castle. Harry wrapped an arm around her.
"And we have to think of a plan to get them back," he said, causing Hermione to giggle.
~*~
"That was the sweetest thing I've ever seen," Ginny said, watching her two friends head back to the castle. Lavender wiped her eyes with a handkerchief.
"I agree," she said, sniffing. Ron and Draco were leaning on a tree, looking bored.
"Can we go in now? My arse is freezing," Ron said.
"Yeah! And besides, why are we still out here when Harry and Hermione are inside the castle now?" Draco added. Ginny and Lavender glared at their boyfriends.
"You guys are so heartless," Lavender said.
"Not to mention annoying," Ginny said. Ron and Draco's jaws dropped.
"Heartless? Annoying? We'll show you," Draco grumbled. Then he pretended to cry.
"Harry and Hermione are finally back together! I'm so happy!" he squeaked, pretending to wipe a tear. Ron caught on and gave Draco a hug.
"There there, don't cry. I'm very proud of them," he pretended to choke out. When he caught Draco's eyes, they pretended to sob together. Lavender rolled her eyes while Ginny looked at them dully. Ginny pulled Draco away while Lavender did the same with Ron.
"Hey! We're not done crying!" Ron cried. Lavender ignored this and continued to pull him.
"We're going back to the castle because you and Ron are being such prats and also because Harry and Hermione would most likely be looking for us," Ginny said, dragging a frowning Draco. Ginny smiled at Lavender.
"At least my boyfriend doesn't complain as much," she said, laughing when Lavender scowled at her.
"That's not funny Ginny!" Lavender exclaimed. Ron looked at Draco, and when he caught his eyes, he raised his eyebrow. Draco shrugged.
"Best not to ask," he said. Ron nodded.
"Got ya on that one, mate," he said before finally letting Lavender drag him into the castle.
Jae: Done! I'm officially done this fic and no, there will be no sequels!
Harry: Ugh, Jessica?
Jae: * blinks * you're still here, dad?
Harry: * looks pointedly at Jae *
Jae: Oh yeah! Tell me, did mum torture you in any way?
Harry: No. But she did make me watch a bunch of chick flick with her. I could still remember how wet my shirt was after all the movies. Yup, your mother used my shirt as a handkerchief.
Jae: * laughs * wow, I didn't know mum was that amazing when it came to mood swings. I want to know how she acted when she was pregnant with T.J.!
Harry: * chuckles * Well, it's also quite-
* Hermione comes in the Jae's room *
Hermione: Having a father-daughter bonding now, huh?
Harry: * walks over to Hermione and wraps his arms around her * we were just walking down the memory lane.
Hermione: Oh? And what is it about?
Harry: your mood swings when you were pregnant with Jessica
Hermione: * smiles at the memory * I still feel bad for turning Ron into a turtle
Harry: I'm sure he got used to it when Lavender was pregnant with Andrew * starts kissing Hermione *
Jae: * gives a disgusted look * oh come on guys! Do that in your OWN room!
* Harry pulls Hermione away from Jae's room while Hermione laughs *
Jae: * shakes head * as much as I love my parents, they can be so sickeningly romantic sometimes! Anyway, review everyone! Oh and my next fic will be a romance/drama, and since it's my first shot at it, please don't flame me! Bye for now! * blows a kiss *
