The Line...Crossed

Hermione Kisses Harry.

The month of September ended and October started. Hermione wanted to go out to the Library, but Harry was against it. He didn\'t want anything bad to happen to her while she was there. In the end he decided if he was with her that Ron wouldn\'t try anything. Ten minutes later they both left South tower and headed down to the Library, Madam Pince was waiting for them and like Harry she watched Hermione closely. When Hermione had gotten the books that she wanted she checked them out and they hurried back to south tower.

\" Thanks for taking me,\" Hermione said when they had returned safe and sound. Harry blushed dispite himself and Hermione thought it looked cute.
\" No problem.\" Harry replied. Hermione started to read her first book and soon became engrossed in it. Harry started on his Advance Charms work that Professor Flitwick wanted done, it seemed that as long as he knew that Hermione was safe and sound that he was able to do his work much better.

Dobby again delivered dinner, it was Pizza. Something that Harry had taught Dobby and the houselves to make. It was good for a first-timer. When the house-elf had left they started talking about next year when they would be in their final year and they would be studying for their N.E.W.T\'S.
\" I heard their hard,\" Hermione told him.
\" I guess they would be, the Ministry has so much that they want us to know about. I would hate to think them being easy.\" Hermione nodded and for the first time he saw some of her oldself come back. It was wonderful and he didn\'t want to spoil it.

Harry found it much easier to not think about the growing feelings that he was having for Hermione when he was doing his work. Studying for the first time was much better, and slowly but surely Hermione was starting to come out of her stoop. Professor Dumbledore finally got a reply from the Ministry saying that watching Mr. Weasley would be the most important thing now and that if he shows anymore\" odd behavior\" to let them know. Dumbledore just wished that it was that simple.

Harry had just gotten back from Quittich practice when he notice that Hermione who had been reading a book had decided to take a shower. He loved it when she was doing other things then saying how much she missed Ron, or I wish Ron was here. He got showered and changed and was just coming out when he ran right into Hermione.
\" Harry I didn\'t see you there.\" She told him.
\" That\'s alright,\" he told her. \" The steam was making it hard to see anything.\" He smiled at her and she almost melted. Before he could stop her she kissed him. He groaned and wrapped his arms around her, he wanted her and her kisses weren\'t stopping. She forced him against the wall and allowed him to ravish her mouth.
\" Do you want me to stop?\" She asked.
\" Oh gods no,\" he muttered. However she pushed away. He panted with what he was trying to control.
\" But I must,\" she told him. \" Thanks for teaching me that.\" She left and he fell to the floor wishing that it hadn\'t been Ron that had started all this.

Soon it became the norm. She would kiss him and drive him near the edge before stopping and leaving. He didn\'t think he could take it anymore. He had to tell her the truth. He was in love with her and he wanted to know if she was in love with him.
