Hey guys. So as you know, this story is already finished. However, there is a section missing between the last chapter I posted and the last one written. According to the original plan, it would be much less fluff and a lot more angst. I asked the readers on the site I first posted this at if they wanted that section, or if they just wanted the fluffy ending. I ended up just writing the end. So here’s what would have happened:
Hermione hears other students whispering about how she’s cheating on Ron with Harry, and they call her a slut. She gets upset and tells Harry she can’t go on acting the way she has been. They spend an awkward few days alone before Ron comes back from his family trip. Harry and Hermione never tell him anything, and he doesn’t know anything about how they feel. Harry withdraws more and more from the other two, and gets wrapped up in other (dangerous) things.
Then there’s the ending, which I have written already. I’ve got more time to write this semester than last, so I’ll ask you guys if you would rather me write the middle (which would take longer) or just post the end with the middle chunk missing. What do you think?
