Ch.4
7th year had started and Harry and Hermione were name Head Boy and Girl. The tension was always present. Even more so when Ron came to their common room. Harry locked himself in his room and put his wizard music player on full blast.
They were always friendly, but not much. The most they talked was when they had meetings.
Cho's words always rang in his eyes whenever he was alone with her. He would replay what he would say to her in his head and when he reached her he made the mistake of looking at her finger and turn back. He always makes that mistake.
He watched her more than ever. He knew his time with Hermione was running short.
(Back to present time)
Harry jumped out of his reverie when he felt a pair of hand shaking him by the shoulder.
"Harry...Are you ok?" Harry blinked and found a pair of brown eyes staring at him in worry. Hermione was about 2 inches away from his face
"Yeah...just daydreaming." He tried to say. He could feel her breath on his face and his heart rate sped up. Hermione probably noticed how close she was to him and backed away.
"You scared me. You weren't moving and you weren't blinking."
"Sorry. I was just daydreaming." And with that she went back to her homework. He sighed and went back to his own. I have to tell her...before its really too late
(A/N-I know, I know. Its sad the trio isn't together anymore, but love can isolate people...At least it does in this story.
