Honesty
A/N: Hi everyone, it’s nice to see some people actually like the story so far. Thank you to those that say you already are, wanting more. BTW I own nothing but the plot.
Chapter 2: Honesty
I couldn’t do it anymore. I couldn’t cry anymore. I just had to keep telling myself that what I had done was best for him. No matter how much I loved him, I couldn’t let Draco be hurt anymore. Not by anyone, especially me. One day he may understand, but hopefully he would never know. I prayed that he would just move on and forget.
Stepping away from the shadowed alcove that I hidden in for the last few hours I made my way back to Griffindor tower to maybe get some sleep. It had been a long time since I had last slept a decent night sleep. Coming upon the portrait of the Fat Lady I whispered the password and quickly stepped in, hopefully everyone was in bed already. Of course, no such luck.
“Hermione, is that you?” Harry Potter’s voice sounded across the Common Room.
“Yeah Harry, it’s me” I sighed in response. I should have known he would have been awake still. Damn it. That boy was too perceptive for his own good. “What are you still doing up? Don’t you have Quidditch tomorrow?” I asked hoping that Quidditch would distract him long enough to get to the 7th year girl dormitories. He slightly nodded but did not make a move to get up and go to bed. ‘Fuck, I am screwed’ was all I could think when Harry finally turned to look at me.
“Hermione, explain to me what happened today.” His voice was soft, but it did not betray him. He wasn’t asking, he was demanding.
“What is there to explain Harry?” I questioned in what I hoped was a light cheerful voice. It must have not been though because Harry’s eyes darkened with confusion a little more, if that was at all possible.
“You know what I mean.” He stated in a serious voice.
“No…sorry I don’t.” I tried to sound confused.
“Quit bull shitting me Hermione.” He ran a hand through his messy dark hair. “Public humiliation was just never your forte.”
“Harry, what are you going on about?” I was exasperated. Why couldn’t he just let it drop?
“GODS DAMN IT, HERMIONE!” Harry shouted at me even though I was now sitting next to him on the sofa in front of the fire place. I prayed that no one would wake up with as loud as Harry just shouted. I don’t think I could have taken more than one person wanting to know the truth at that moment. After a moment of pacing he sat back down and just looked me in the eye.
“I just want you to be honest with me. What is really going on?” His green eyes pierced straight into my soul. I could feel my resolve beginning to brake. Tears were now freely falling down my cheeks. I just couldn’t do this on my own anymore. Although Harry wasn’t my first choice with all that he had already been through, he was still my best friend to the end.
“Harry, I love him so much.” I had finally broken. All of my secrets were about to come out.
A/N: Muhahahah, Cliff Hanger. I know I’m sorry, but that seemed like a good place to leave it. Enjoy. Please review.
