Meant to Be

Chapter 2, Hermione

As I sat there, leaning against Ron's shoulder and watching Harry leave, I realized how wrong it felt.

"I love you Hermione," Ron said. I faked sleep, not wanting to reply. Ron started to snore.

I got up, careful not to wake Ron up, and tiptoed into the boy's dormitories. 

"Harry?" I whispered. Harry got out of his bed.

"What?" he asked. sleepily.

"Can you help me get Ron up here? He fell asleep."

Harry raised an eyebrow.

"What?" I asked him, kind of confused.

"You're not going to sleep with him down there?" He asked.

"No."

"Why?" 

"Harry, we need to talk."

"Oh?"

I heard a loud snore. "Well, after we take care of that."

We brought Ron to his bed and I sat down on Harry's. 

"So... what is it?" asked Harry, sitting down beside Hermione.

"Earlier, I realized that... that I don't like Ron anymore. Honestly, I'm doubting if I ever did. I don't know what to do!" I exclaimed, a tear rolling down my cheek. "I don't want to break up with him, he'd be devastated, but I also want to, because it doesn't feel right and I think I'm in love with someone else and-" I then sobbed into Harry's chest. "I just... I just don't know what to do." 

Harry rubbed her back soothingly. "It's alright, Hermione. Just, stop thinking about what Ron wants and focus on what you want, even if it breaks his heart."

I nodded and yawned. "Harry, can I sleep in here tonight?" Harry looked taken aback. "Just for comfort... not like that." I added.

"Oh, yeah. Of course."

Harry laid down, and I rested my head on his chest. Harry rubbed his hand through my hair. "You said earlier that you were in love with someone else... who was that?"

Hey guys! Sorry for the cliffhanger! Guess who it is in the comments!
