Almost timidly Harry brushed his lips against hers as if asking for permission. When he saw that she didn't pull away, he took a deep breath and got the courage he needed and kissed her.
At first timid, the kiss grew more passionate by the second. Hermione pulled away, leaving Harry startled from the sudden change.
"Harry, we can't.." Hermione said flustered.
"You're getting married soon..in a couple of weeks we can't be doing this it isn't right. It's a mistake."
The realization hit Harry and ashamed he turned away and gathered his things. "You're right, Hermione, I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me. I just..I'm sorry." And before she could respond he apparated.
Hermione turned to look at the spot were Harry was seconds before and replayed the recent scene over and over in her mind again.
She choked back tears as she realized that it hadn't felt like a mistake. It felt just right.
Harry arrived at the Grimmauld Palace out of breath. He couldn't believe what had just happened.
He didn't mean for it to happen. He had always seen something in Hermione but never went out of his way to discover what it had really meant untill now.
He thought about Ginny.
He was getting married to her in just a few weeks and while he was sure that she was the one before he had never felt when he kissed Ginny what he had felt when he kissed Hermione.
Confused, he sat down to think. Hermione was always there for him. He had been with him through the darkest times and always remained loyal. He knew that out of anyone, he could count on her.
While Ron was his best mate, he had always felt that he couldn't count on him to stay through the think and thin- which proved to be right when he ended up running out on them while they were chasing Horcruxes. Hermione was practically all he had ever had. Ginny was great, yeah, but why didn't it feel the same as when he was with Hermione?
He loved Hermione. Wait. He loved her. As, in he loved her. Of course. He always had. He just never realized the feelings leaned towards..in love. But what was he gonna do?
He couldn't just hurt Ginny, she didn't deserve that. He had to make the right choice, he was going to leave his feelings aside. He was going to marry Ginny.
