Hi! So this is my first attempt at writing anything, so any comment would be great, just try to go easy on me :P
He could feel her, the warmth of her skin against his, her hair throughout his arms, her breath on his stomach and her head in his chest.
He could hear her, the words se said in her sleep, the air in and out of her. He could smell the perfume. He could kind of see her, he didn't have his glasses on so he could only see her brown her on top of him, and her nose poking through it.
His senses told him she was there, he knew she was there but his mind couldn't understand why, why was she there? With him? Why was she asleep next to him? And, why was he with her?
Harry had known Hermione since his first day in Hogwarts, that little girl with long messy brown hair, the way she just entered looking for... what was it? Neville's turtle I think, the way she fixed his glasses, and when they both went to Gryffindor. She was lovely from the first moment he saw her.
But he had never thought of her in that way, well... he wasn't really sure of what "in the way" meant, and to be honest he was locked in a castle with hot girls most of the year, if it meant what he thought, he thought of every girl that way. Anyways, he never saw her with those intensions, they were friends and that was ok with harry, he never really wanted more but that changed a couple of week ago
They had been in that tent for weeks now, Ron's arm was getting better, and they thought that they could leave in a couple of days, he and Hermione were looking for some berries she had found days ago. Ron was asleep with the locket, so they were peacefully going thru the forest.
"They were over there", she said pointing a bush near the stream.
"Are you sure we can eat those?" he said looking at her with questioning eyes
"Yes!" she said smiling, as she grabbed a couple and throw them on the basket harry was caring "I saw them in one of Neville's books"
"They are... magical?" he pressed one between his fingers to see if it would explode
"He has normal books too" she said with a little smile
"Does he?"
After a minute he surprised himself staring at her, the smile had stayed on her and she was now humming a song they heard on the radio, he didn't understand how she managed to look so good without makeup, without brushing her hair. And how did she smell so good without regular showers?
"You ok?" she said looking concerned at him
"What?" he said returning to earth
"You were there just staring into space"
"Sorry, I was just lost in my thoughts"
"Hey" she whispered softly "It's ok" she dropped the basket to the floor and wrapped her arms in one of his
"What?"
"Ron will be ok soon and we'll be able to keep looking for something to do, maybe moving around won't be as boring" She said as she rested her head in his shoulder
"I'm just tired, we have been here for weeks, we have no idea of what to do with the locket or were to find another..." he was saying when she cut him off
"shhh" she whispered as she put her finger on his lips to shut him "we... everyone... everything will be ok, we are gonna do this" she said as she hugged him
He couldn't help but hug her back, it was cold and she was warm, his face was in her hair, it smelled so good, how? He was sure he smelled really bad, but she, she smelled fresh and fruity, wait a minute... he knew that smell
"Hermione, when did you found this berries?" he said reluctantly pulling away from her, not enough to pull apart, only to see her face
"ahh... like three days ago" she said blushing softly
"Then why does your hair smells like them" he said as he smelled his fingers
"I don't, don't k-know..." she was running her fingers truth her hair and her face was really red at this point
"This aren't normal berries right?" he said with a huge smile, mostly because he outsmarted his friend
"They are blue stars, the main component in straight potion, I found them on our first day here and I've been using them for hair cream" she said burring her face in his chest so he couldn't see her
"Hahahaha" he couldnĀ“t stop laughing and the fact that her hair was on his nose didn't help
"I'm stuck with you two all day! I didn't want to look like a crazy mountain monster, so I wanted to pack a few before we leaved"
"Haha, oh my god this just too funny" he managed to say between laughter "come on you would look great, even as a crazy mountain monster"
"You're just saying that" she said getting her head out of his chest
He saw right in her eyes "I'm not"
She smiled at the complement and laughed a little
Her smile, they way they were still wrapped to each other, the sweet smell of her hair, it was all getting into Harry's mind
"What?" she said noticing he was staring down at her
"Ahh.." he tried to form a sentence in his mind "I..."
Hermione was trying to say something as well but the way Harry was looking at her didn't allow her mind to properly work; she opened her mouth to at least make a stupid sound just like him, when he kissed her.
