Love Conquers All
Chapter 2:
The Beginning of a Great Summer
It was merely two weeks into the summer when Harry received another letter from Hermione. Already they had sent Hedwig back and fourth once every day. She didn't mind however, she was happy to be out and about, instead of cooped up in Harry's bedroom all summer. It was barely 8 o'clock that morning, but Harry had made it a custom to wake up early and read her letters to him. This one had to be the best one all summer:
Dear Harry,
My parents were called away on an Emergency Dentist call to New York. I guess that my Uncle, who lives there, got into some legal trouble and needs my parents to pick up the practice. Seeing they have a partnership here, they are leaving their practice here and going to New York. They do not know how long they are going to be gone.
Anyway, I have already owled the Weasley's, in order to stay there, however they returned the letter from Egypt. I guess you may know that if you have been talking to Ron, however I haven't. But anyway, I owled Professor Dumbledore and asked him what to do. He said I should owl you. I didn't think that your aunt and uncle would allow it, however I guess Dumbledore told me to tell you, that he would have words with them if they refused. So I will be arriving tomorrow promptly at 8 o'clock.
I can't wait to see you love I miss you so much…
The rest of the letter went on about her undying love for Harry and how much she missed him. Harry was so happy he could hardly contain himself! His girlfriend was coming here! To live with him until the Weasley's returned and they both would leave! Harry was so excited.
He loved Hermione more than anything in this world, and he would do anything for her. Being away from her broke his heart more everyday they were away. Yet she still had an influence on him, regardless of where she was. Whenever he felt like cursing Dudley or his aunt and uncle, he just thought of her "Really Harry, please use more common sense!" He'd smile at them and turn to leave the room, before he gained the courage to defy her memory.
So when his clock read 8:30, Harry bounced out of bed, threw on some of the new clothes he had picked up at a Muggle shop in Hogsmead, and trotted downstairs to the kitchen. Aunt Petunia was standing by the stove making bacon and eggs for them when he arrived. Dudley wasn't up yet, he rarely got up before 11 o'clock, however Uncle Vernon was sitting at the kitchen table eating some toast and reading the morning paper, before he left for work. Harry sat down across the table and stared at him.
Uncle Vernon looked up, screwed up his eyes and snapped, "What are you looking at boy?"
Harry smirked and stated, "The man who is about to make my year." His uncle choked on his toast and placed the rest of it back on the plate, looking at him confusedly. "Well you see, my girlfriend, Hermione, she's in a bit of a spot, and needs to come and stay here."
"Absolutely not." Vernon interrupted.
"Well, actually Uncle Vernon, you don't have a choice in the matter. I'm not asking, I'm telling. You see if you were to say no, Headmaster Dumbledore said that he would come and have words with you about the matter." Petunia, who was now standing behind Vernon, turned white and squeezed her husband's shoulders. "So Hermione, that's her name, learn it, because I will not tolerate you calling her anything else, will be arriving at 8 o'clock tomorrow." With that Harry got up and left the kitchen.
Harry sat down at his desk and pulled out a quill and paper and scribbled:
Hermione,
That's great news. Everything is all set. You can arrive tomorrow. I can't wait to see you. I've missed you so much. Looking forward to your arrival!
Yours forever,
Harry
He tied the not to Hedwig, patted her on the head, and she took off out the open window.
The rest of the day was incredibly lazy for Harry. Dudley finally woke up around 11 o'clock like expected. He trudged down the hall and took a long shower, Harry could see the steam coming from the bottom of the bathroom when Petunia finally knocked on the door telling him lunch was ready, and it was time to get out. Harry watched Dudley from the corner of his eye when he was watching the afternoon news, he was eating the food from breakfast, and the food from lunch as his meal. What a pig, Harry thought to himself. No wonder he is the largest human being I've ever seen. Then Harry tried to pass the afternoon with doing some homework and changing his room to fit Hermione's needs.
After he was finally done with his transfiguration essay, Harry focused on changing his room. First he expanded his room to be about twice the size. He added another twin size bed about three feet away from his, and another night stand. The bed set on the new bed was a lilac color with light pink flowers on it. The night stand was a white one, with girly like knick-knacks on it. Then he added a bathroom. It was large, and had two sinks in it. It had two hooks on the back of the door, one for Hermione and one for him. He conjured up girly shampoo and conditioner, though he thought she might bring that stuff. He changed the color of his walls to be a light blue, instead of the puke green they normally were. He conjured up a stereo and added speakers in the bathroom and also put a TV in it with a VCR and DVD player. By the time he was finished it was nearly 9 o'clock.
Harry lied in bed trying to think of something other than the beautiful girl he was going to see tomorrow morning. He couldn't though. Even when he finally fell asleep he was dreaming of holding Hermione in his arms again, so tight he thought he'd never be able to let go. He dreamt about their future together, not a whisper of Voldemort was in his mind. He only wanted Hermione, and no one else.
Harry woke up the next morning at quarter till 8. He quickly got out of bed, flew in the shower and got dressed. As he was pulling down his shirt the doorbell rang. Harry smiled so big and the necklace he was wearing began to tickle his chest. Harry stormed down the stairs just as Vernon was opening the door. Harry saw his beautiful girlfriend smile at his uncle, and just as she was about to say hello, Harry ran and scooped her up and twirled her around in the doorway. Hermione squealed and buried her head into his neck. Finally Harry put her down, and she looked up into his eyes.
"Man I've missed you, love." Harry said to her. Hermione just smiled and stood on his tip toes to kiss his lips.
"Well," Vernon said a little too loud. Harry looked up, letting go of Hermione's lips. Petunia stood off to the side pursing her lips. Harry wasn't sure if she was smiling or scowling, as he had never seen her smile. "I suppose you are Hermione?" Vernon barked.
"Yes sir, I am." Hermione smiled at the surprised look Vernon wore after experienced her manners. She extended her hand to Vernon, and then Petunia. "I'm Harry's girlfriend. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Vernon was shocked. "I thought you were from the boy's school?"
Hermione smiled again. "Harry's school? Oh, yes sir, I am. But my parents are not magical. I grew up in this world like Harry."
The group was still standing on the front stoop. Petunia looked around nervously, "Vernon, why don't we come inside?"
"Yes, yes of course dear. Come inside won't you Hermione?" Hermione smiled at the curtsey she received and walked inside. Harry stooped down and lifted her trunk effortlessly and brought it upstairs to his room. When he returned to the living room, Petunia had set out tea and the three of them were talking. "So, Hermione, how long have you and Harry been together?" This was very weird to Harry, because they have never taken interest. But Hermione just smiled sweetly and answered, taking Harry's hand as he sat next to her.
"Well we've been together for about 10 months, since the end of September." She squeezed Harry's hand after she answered, telling him she loved him.
"And what are you parents doing?" Petunia asked, being her nosey self.
"My parents are dentists, and they are in New York taking over my uncle's practice. Thank you so much for allowing me to come." Harry snorted and Hermione shot him a look. A look he didn't want to question, so he shut up and drank his tea. After more meaningless chit chat, Harry heard large steps on the stairs. It was early for Dudley to be awake.
"Oh my! I forgot all about Duddikins breakfast! Please excuse me!" She shot up from her seat and ran into the kitchen trying to put something together for Dudley to eat.
Harry could hear him whining from the kitchen. Saying something about watching TV when she finished, he came into the living room where they were having their tea. He stopped in the door way and just looked around the room. His head shot from his father, to Harry, to Hermione, and back to Harry. "What did you do Harry, get a whore pregnant?"
Harry shot up ready to pounce on him. However, Hermione grabbed his arm and pulled him down. "No, Dudley. I'm Harry's girlfriend, not a whore. And I most certainly am not pregnant."
"Well," Vernon cut in, "we are very glad that isn't the matter, because I will not be taking care of any baby every again. So, you can do anything you like. Just stay out of my hair. I don't want to hear you to at any point with in the couple of weeks you are going to be hear. And if I do, I will throw you out. Boy, I'm glad you found someone decent, but I still don't like you. Get out of my site." Harry was extremely confused. First his uncle seemed civilized and then he did a complete 180 and was himself again. However, Harry just nodded and took Hermione's hand, and led her to his room.
Hermione giggled when she walked in and saw how he obviously changed his room for her. "I think I need to change this a little bit, love." She smiled and with a wave of her wand, the middle night stand disappeared and the two twin beds became one full size bed with a flowery bed spread.
Harry chuckled and hugged Hermione from behind after closing his bedroom door. "No, no, no. That will not due." Hermione turned around confused and looked him in the eye with a tilted head. Harry chuckled again at her confusion, waved his wand, and turned her back around. She giggled cutely when she saw he turned the comforter to a dark maroon. She spun around wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close to her. Then she backed into the bed and fell while she planted her lips on his.
"I missed you!" she mumbled in between kisses. Harry silenced her with his tongue on hers, explaining with out words that he felt the same way. He had flipped the two of them over so Hermione was on top of him and his hands roamed from her hair, down her back, to her ass and she moaned against his mouth with his touch. With much reluctance Hermione backed away from the kiss and sat up, still straddling Harry. Harry looked up at her with swollen lips and happy eyes. "Harry, love, we need too stop! I have to unpack! We'll have plenty of time for this, the Weasley's aren't returning for two weeks!"
They spent the rest of the morning settling Hermione into the room. They added a table to do their homework on and to eat on. Hermione had put her clothes in the new dresser Harry had added and put all of her toiletries into the bathroom. Once she was finished Harry conjured up some pizza for lunch, and they sat down to watch a little bit of TV while eating it. They chatted about what to do these two weeks, and they chatted about this up coming school year.
"I don't understand your aunt and uncle, Harry. They were so nice when I first arrived. Something triggered in your uncle when your cousin came into the room. I'm so sorry." Hermione had finished her pizza and put the plate on the night stand on the side of the bed. Harry gulped his down, placed his plate on his and looked into her eyes.
"`Mione, you have nothing to be sorry for. My aunt and uncle are not going to change, because they think you are decent or not. I love you, and you know that their thoughts don't mean anything to me. We will be out of here in two weeks, and then everything will be perfect." He hugged Hermione close to him and kissed her temple. Hermione sighed and wrapped her arms around his waste. "You want to take a walk `Mione? I can show you where I grew up." Hermione looked at him and nodded while smiling slightly.
Harry unwrapped her from him and stood up taking her hand. The two of them walked out of Harry's room and down the stairs, and out the front door. They did this quietly not to make the other people in the house agitated. Harry and Hermione walked around the block and to the park.
When they got to the park, Hermione walked over to the swing set and sat on a swing. Harry came up behind her and started to push her. She is beautiful, Harry thought, how could anybody see bad in this girl? She is the best thing in my life, and I don't know what I'd do with out her. She pushed her back and she got higher and higher. She giggled and Harry couldn't be any happier watching the wind blow in her hair. Not being able to keep from taking her in his arms, Harry grabbed her by the waste when she came back to him. She screeched in delight as Harry attacked her neck in kisses.
"Merlin, you smell wonderful, `Mione." Harry whispered to her. They had been out all afternoon and it was turning dusk. The sun was setting, and Harry knew they shouldn't be out after dark. "We should be getting back, love. It's getting too dark to be out."
Hermione pouted, but nodded, "I guess your right, Harry." She linked her arm in his and allowed him to lead them back to the house.
When they returned, Hermione conjured up some pasta and they sat at the table and ate, talking about how they thought Ron and the rest of the Weasley's were doing in Egypt. It was around 7 when they finally cleaned up, and Harry excused himself to get ready for bed. When he had finished brushing his teeth and washing his face, he came out to see Hermione surfing the channels on the TV and waiting for the bathroom. She smiled at him, lightly kissed his lips and scooped up her clothes and walked into the bathroom.
Harry went to work. He knew he didn't have much time. He quickly conjured 100 candles and lit all of them. He turned off the lights, and spread rose petals on the bed. He put to candles on the table, and conjured up a wonderful strawberry chocolate cake for a dessert. He cast a quick silencing charm on the room, and he switched his clothes with his wand, to black pants and a black button down shirt, and conjured one red rose charmed never to die. He waited, standing facing the door to the bathroom. He heard the sink turn off and saw the hand turn. Hermione stepped out in cotton pj bottoms and a cotton tank. She gasped as she looked around. "H-Harry? This is beautiful! But I'm a little under dressed." She looked down at her cotton pajamas and frowned.
Harry lifted her chin with his finger and waved his wand. When he let go of her chin she looked down at herself again and she was in an elegant white silk dress that hung low on her chest and high at her knee. Harry intertwined his fingers in hers and led her over to the table. They sat romantically feeding each other the cake and whispering how much they loved each other.
Soon they had finished their cake and Harry had led Hermione to their bed. He laid her down and traced her cheek with his fingers. "Hermione?" She knew what he was asking her. They had been together for almost a year, and if she said that she didn't want to make love to him, she would be lying. She wanted with everything she had to be with him in the most intimate way. She wanted to feel his love, not just know it.
"Yes Harry. Please make love to me." Harry bent down his neck and kissed her gently. He was determined to make their first time romantic and passionate. He moved from her lips to her neck and to her shoulders. Harry moved the straps of the silk dress off her shoulders and she moaned at the gentle kisses.
Harry pulled Hermione up and unzipped the dress from behind. It revealed her bare breasts and flat stomach. He loved her. Every part of her, and he wanted to show her. He kissed her chest and moved his mouth to the sensitive part of her breast. She moaned as his tongue danced around her nipple and as his mouth sucked her. His hands gently ran up and down her sides causing goose bumps to form on her skin. Harry then traveled to the other breast and continued the same technique before turning back to her lips.
Hermione pushed to hands to his chest and stopped his kisses. He looked at her with the most intense gaze she has ever felt. Hermione flipped Harry over and stood up and pulled the dress off of her the rest of the way, showing Harry the rest of her body. "You're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." Harry breathed. Hermione smiled and laid him back on the bed. She unbuttoned his shirt and kissed her way down his 6 pack abs as she did so. He moaned slightly, liking the feeling of her soft lips on his skin. Harry sat up and pulled off his shirt the rest of the way when Hermione started to unbutton his pants. She pulled his black pants and boxers off his legs. She took a large breath when she saw him. She reached her hand to his balls and massaged them with one as she took him into her mouth. She heard Harry breathe her name as he became harder inside her mouth. Not wanting to push him too far, she stopped and the two of them crawled under the covers of their bed.
Harry cradled her close taking in everything about her. His hand gently ran up and down her body, teasing her with the light touch. He started at her stomach and then traced her thigh and ass. Then he made his way to her inner thigh, and slowly made his way higher so he was just barely touching her moist sex. When she started to moan in aggravation, he eased crossed two fingers and eased them inside of her. She sighed under his kiss. He had done this before, but it always felt so right. He touched her in every spot that made her quiver and eventually she was enjoying the ripple of electricity. She gasped under her lover's mouth and grasped the bed sheets.
Harry knew she was ready now. He had been ready for a while, but he knew that the first time hurt for a woman, and he wanted to make tonight as enjoyable as possible for her. He climbed on top of the love of his life and looked directly into her eyes. She had calmed down from the orgasm, and she nodded. She lifted her legs and linked them behind Harry's back, giving him plenty of room. He kissed her lips gently as he eased himself into her. He gasped under him, and as much as he wanted to dive right into her, he knew he had to go slow. He pushed further in until he felt her barrier. The separated their lips and Harry locked eyes with Hermione.
"I love you `Mione. But you know this is going to hurt."
"I know Harry. It's ok, I want this. I want you. I love you so much." She responded.
Harry didn't need any more encouragement. He pushed through her barrier and filled her entirely. She gasped, and cried out in pain. Harry hushed her with soothing words of love and desire. He kissed away the tear that escaped her eye, and stayed still until she was comfortable again. Just being inside her this way was overwhelming for him. He slowly began to move again when she started to kiss him deeper and harder. She whispered dirty thoughts into his ear and he moaned and started to slowly pump in and out of her. She began to moan in pleasure, and it wasn't long before the two of them were wrapped in each others arms experiencing the best feeling they could ever know, the love you feel when you orgasm with your soul mate.
