Beside the Crackling Fire

This is a sequel to Stolen Moments. Or rather what is becoming a sort of short series of one-shots. This time Hermione reflects on her thoughts of her and Harry being together. And having to keep it all a secret. Does she regret it? Read and find out. I rated this PG because of the mention of sex. Nothing graphic but, just in case. Excerp: The fire crackled, pages turned with a quiet rustle, and soft groans from the floor above, combined with the occasional shifting of a body asleep in a bed, filled the otherwise quiet room. A small, solitary figured sat on the old battered, but still very comfortable couch. Her small frame curled into a tight ball, a book balanced precariously on her lap.
