Summary
A girl with wild hair and a suitcase full of books bursts into his life, and Harry can’t do anything else but fall. He falls into friendship, into love, into her tender arms and into the magic of it all. Only will it all be enough to save him?
***
They find themselves lying down on their sides, their knees touching, Harry’s hand on Hermione’s waist and hers on his chest. The mood shifts so abruptly that he is giddy with it. For the first time ever, Harry thinks what it would be like to kiss Hermione. He licks his lips at the idea, and his heart beats faster. Only it won’t be fair on her, will it? He doesn’t want to break her heart more than he has to. Harry has already decided that he would die for her if he had to, and now he knows he has to. It’s okay, really. It’s okay.
He makes the thought of kissing Hermione as small as possible, until it’s smaller than a grain of sand, until it’s so tiny it’s barely there at all, and then he stuffs it into the deepest corner of his mind and builds a wall around it, just like Snape has taught him to.
“Who do you have a crush on?” Hermione whispers as she moves infinitesimally closer.
