Disclaimer: Why bother.
I am so happy with myself! I have never been this good about updating in my history of writing fanfiction! Oh Mum would be so proud! Ok, done with the dramatics.
But seriously, this has to be the fastest I have ever written a fanfic chapter and been happy with the results. I really think it has to do with all the wonderful reviews y'all give me. I love the feed back. They're so much more then the simple "good story" that I would get on another site. So thank you all! I love to name you all but there are just to many! So enjoy the chapter.
Also, updating may get slow the next few days. I have to study big time for finals that I have on Thursday and Friday. I'll probably write, it's just a matter of posting them. So look at it like this, when I come back y'all may have like three new chapters! If I post them all at once :-D

And so we sat for the next hour on the Astronomy Tower. Like graduation it's a blur. We kissed for awhile then just sat gazing at the sky. I don't know why Harry didn't talk, but I know why I didn't. I had so many things running through my head. I realized I was in love with Harry after all, and like I said that's a big moment in someone's life. Also I was afraid that if I spoke I would wake up and find I had dreamed this all. Then where would I be? In bed and alone knowing what I felt for Harry.
But it wasn't a dream and we eventually made our way back to the common room. Under the cover of the invisibility cloak of coarse, though I doubt any of the professors would have said anything if we were caught. We made it to the Fat Lady and startled her out of her sleep by giving the password(Waddiwasi) and found ourselves in a darkened common room. The party was apparently over and all had gone to bed. The only light was the slowly dying fire (I still don't know why one was going in June). We made our way to sit on the couch facing it but were startled to see Ron and Luna sleeping in each others arms. I still to this day don't know how he managed to sneak her up from the Ravenclaw dorms, but he did. I took this as a sign that it was time for me to go to bed. After all we left early tomorrow and had a lot of traveling to do. I turned to look at Harry who, by his expression, had thought the same thing.
"Well I'm going to head up. We have a lot of traveling tomorrow and I don't want to be to tired." I said.
"Alright Hermione. I'll see you bright and early tomorrow. Night."He bent down and gave me a gentle kiss on the lips.
"Night Harry." With that I made my way to the girl dormitory stairs and to my bed. I could feel his gaze on me as I made my way up and smiled knowing that it was not just to make sure I made it up safely.

Despite the late hour at which I went to bed I was up at 6:30 the next morning. As always I had to have control of the situation, and that meant making sure everything I owned was packed and repacked at least three times. After all there was no next year to have things you left behind returned.
At 7:30 I made my way down to the common room and was relieved to see that Ron and Luna had moved at some point in the night. Whether she had gone back to her own dorm or up to the boys dormitories I didn't know. I thought it best to head up and find out. After all we left at 9:30 and both still had to finish packing. I made my way up the stairs and to their door. I opened it to see all the hangings closed. I moaned knowing this would mean having to open Ron's to see. Merlin only knew what I would find.
I crossed the room and pulled the hanging back a fraction of an inch. Seeing only Ron, I let out the breath I hadn't known I had been holding. I decided to wake both Ron and Harry up. I spied Ron's trunk wide open and a mess, I knew he would need the time to pack. Harry's I saw wasn't as bad, but would need some definite time. I crossed over to Harry's bed and opened his hangings all the way. He was sound asleep, his blankets kicked to the end of his bed showing that he had slept in only his boxers. I felt that ever present blush but ignored it. I gently shook his shoulder trying to wake him. He didn't move. I tried a little hard this time and added my voice to it.
"Harry." I hissed. "Harry".
"Huh?" His eyes squinted open and he saw me standing there. "Whadda want Mione? It's bloody cock-crow!"
"Umm... No it's not. It's about quater of eight and you still have to finish packing." He stretched his entire showing off every muscle he owned, and some I hadn't known existed. When he was done a smile creeped across his face and he looked up at me.
"Well can I have a good morning kiss at least?" he asked. I sighed, only pretending of coarse.
"If you must." And I leaned down to kiss him. Before I knew what was happening he had (literally) swept me off my feet and closed the hangings behind me in one swift movement.
"Harry! What do you think you are doing? I have no time for ga-" But before I could finish my reprimand his mouth had claimed mine and wouldn't let me talk. Seeing as I was powerless I gave in and kissed him back.
This was no chaste kiss, nor was it like the ones we had shared the night before. As inexperienced as I was I knew what the kiss held. It held his passion and desire. It was overwhelming and caught me off guard. Now don't get me wrong, I was no innocent party to this kiss, but there is a time and place for such things. I knew that the Gryffindor boys dormitories was not one. As much as I hated to break the kiss I did and looked down at him with a smile on my face. OK, I'm quite sure it was a grin but still...
"Now now Mr.Potter, there is a time and place for such things. And this dorm is not, nor ever would have been one. Now get up, and get dressed. I am going to wake up Mr.Weasley, and then help both of you pack. And quickly I might add as I wish to be able to eat before we leave on the train. Am I understood?"
"Crystal Miss Granger. But one question?" he asked
"Yes?"
"When would be a proper time and place for such things?" he asked barely able to contain his laughter.
"Oh really! You are hopeless!" I said in mock frustration and swatting at his arm.
"Ow. Well? I would like to know."
"You'll know. And if you don't then you are hopeless and no girl will want you."
"Not even you Miss Granger?"
"No Mr. Potter. Not even me." I laughed. "Now let me go and wake up our friend, we've wasted enough time as it is." With this I lifted myself up and got out of his bed.
