This was a request... It shouldn't have taken me this long 💀 I apologize.

I never wrote the letter that I swore I'd send

I promised to write you a letter when I got home after we broke. But I never did, cause it doesn't feel like how it did before. I don't know but I just felt.. different.

I never got to tell you what I really meant

Yes, we ended on good terms but I didn't have the guts to tell you how I really feel. I didn't have the guts to fight for our love that was once whole.

I'm passing Pasadena, do you still live in LA?

I wonder if you still lived with your parents? Well, you've probably got your own home now since your success as the Minister of Magic. You probably don't know, but I'm still a Hermione Granger supporter.

'Cause I can't help but think of all the things that I would say

What am I even doing, writing a mental script for when I see you again, when I'd probably just freeze in front of you and stare. Pfft, as if that'd happen.

If I showed up at your doorstep
Would you turn me away? Oh

I saw Harry the other day, we chatted and somehow the topic shifted to our previous relationship. I asked where you lived now and he told me. The only problem was your reaction if I visit you. Would you still welcome me in your life, or have you moved on and would turn me away?

Or would you care to
See a stranger whose eyes are still the same? Oh

Is it possible for you to still remember my eyes that were and still full of adoration for you? 'Cause I remember those honey eyes like it were yesterday.

Take me or leave me I'm going home
But I'd rather be going your way so

I wonder at times, if we were back together, would you leave me again? This time, I won't let you go if you were to take me back. I will be brave enough to fight for our love, for us.

Would you love me now?

Would you love me, now that I've changed? I couldn't tell if I am much different that before, but would you still love me?

Take me back to when we were young again, darling

Would you love me how you used to when we were young? Hearts full if infatuation, eyes full of adoration and genuine feelings.

Would you love me now?
After everything would you let me in and love me now?

Would you love me, after everything we've been through? After all this time apart? Would you accept my love and reciprocate it?

We made ourselves a promise we would stay in touch, mmh
So if we're being honest that's on both of us, whoa

We both promised to be back as friends, just like how we were before. But clearly, that isn't proven to be easy when we're both the others love of their life. How could we call each other just friends when it doesn't feel like it?

And I've still got the Converse that I wore the day we met
I'm running out of reasons not to do it all again so

I tried. I really did, but I can't help but run back to you. My life's been miserable without you. Every single day, waking up only to see you in the news achieving something new for the betterment of wizards and witches. I wished I woke up beside you, comforting you when you're too stressed with the ministry.

So I swallowed my pride and did the thing I never thought I'd do.

If I showed up at your doorstep
Would you turn me away? Oh

Breathing in deeply, I knocked at your door. Thoughts running widly through my mind, telling me to just go home. But, you are my home.

Or would you care to
See a stranger whose eyes are still the same? Oh

The door opens, revealing you. Still looking as gorgeous as the first time I saw you. Your curly hair flowing past your shoulders, a lot longer than the last I saw you in person. Adorable eyes looking back at me with a mixture of shock and confusion.

"Y/n?"

"H- Hermione"

Take me or leave me I'm going home
But I'd rather be going your way so

Staring for what felt like eternity, you somehow broke our trance and let me in.

"You must be cold. Come in."

You led me into your humble abode. Calming my nerves at the sight of the interior, screaming Hermione Granger in every corner. A lit vanilla candle on the coffe table.

Would you love me now?
Take me back to when we were young again, darling

"H- how have you been?" I asked, stuttering of how long it has been since I was with her in the same room.

"I've been great! Not to brag, but I'm sure you've seen the Daily Prophet?" She replies with much confident, a beaming smile I can easily read through.

"Yes, yes. Of course I have. But I want to know what you really feel." I tell her, just like how I used to.

Flashback...
(Yule Ball)

"Hermione wait!" I shout, trying to catch up to her as she runs through the halls sobbing.

"Stop following me!" She yells back, shutting the door to her dorm room, locking me out.

"'Mione, please. Let me in." I whisper through the door softly.

"I'm perfectly fine!" She replies, trying to muffle her sobs with a pillow.

"Yes, I know you are.. But I want to know what you really feel."

Would you love me now?

"W- what?" She stutters, tears brimming her eyes as her eyebrows furrows.

"Let me in. Please, talk to me."

"Ron spoiled it!" She says through the door aggressively.

"Let me in. Please."






After everything would you let me in and love me now?

"Fine. We'll talk."
