Hermione Granger and the Time of her Life

Hermione Granger and the Time of her Life

Epilogue

"Morning, sleeping beauty." Fleur opened her eyes at the sound of Oliver's tender voice. She sighed as they shared a passionate kiss and the memories of last night, the good ones, took over them.

"Wow, for a moment 'zere I 'zought I'd never be 'zis close to you again," Fleur confessed. Oliver frowned.

"What are you talking about? Did you think I wouldn't notice your absence in a second?"

"I know. Admit it Wood, you can't live wizout me," Fleur pointed out as they laughed, kissing once again afterwards. "By 'ze way, 'ow did you know my wand would stay safe?"

"Sometimes, you've just got to learn to trust your friends."

Harry woke up with the pleasant absence of Crookshanks pawing on his chest. He stretched in a happily lazy manner, only to turn around and find out that the darned cat was on top of HIS Hermione.

"Get your paws off my girlfriend," he growled. Crookshanks scoffed at him, causing Hermione to open her eyes, and went to get his food at the other end of the room.

"God Harry, I don't know what you have against my cat," Hermione said, Harry's emerald eyes suddenly staring into hers.

"He always gets in my way."

Hermione blushed as she tried to sit up, vainly, for at that moment, Harry rolled on top of her, putting his hands in her own while capturing her mouth in an ardent, and, in Hermione's opinion, delicious kiss.

"Well, good morning to you too," she giggled when Harry's lips tore away. He rolled off her but pulled her tightly against his chest. Hermione sighed as she nuzzled against his warm skin, suddenly glancing at her arm, more specifically, the bracelet that hung on her wrist. "To think that this bracelet saved my life."

"See? I knew it had to be useful for something," Harry teased her. She hit him playfully.

"Shut up Harry," she commanded, kissing him softly afterwards. Harry smiled against her lips.

"Well, if this is the way you're going to shut me up every time, I'll never stop talking." Hermione hit him again. He sighed and pulled her even tighter against him. "I almost lost you last night."

"Harry..."

"I feel I should make up for lost time."

"What do you mean?" Hermione gave him a puzzled glance only to have his eyes drown hers again.

"How would you like to take a vacation, away from all this spells, potions, Hogwarts business?"

"Sounds good, but we can't leave homework behind..."

"Fine 'Mione. It's only for a short while. We will do it when we come back. While we're there, I want to have you all to myself."

"Sounds like paradise," Hermione sighed dreamily.

"Just you and me. Oh, Sirius too. We can go wherever you want."

"All right. But...can we invite some friends?"

Hermione found Fleur in her dorm, still packing up her trunk.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" She walked towards her as the blond part Veela turned around and smiled at her friend.

"Alive. 'Zanks, in large part, to you."

"You would have done the same for me."

"Probably. 'Zanks 'Ermione, for everyzing." She enveloped her in a hug. "Promise you'll write."

"Tell you what, I'll do something better. We'll go to France with you. What do you say?"

"Are you serious?" Fleur's eyes brightened.

"Of course. Harry has invited me to stay with him for the summer; I get to choose the place. Oliver has already been invited. What do you say?"

"Are you kidding? I would love it! I have got just 'ze perfect little spot for us! Ever seen the Eiffel Tower?"

"No, but I bet I'm going to."

"Oui, you are."

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

This ends Hermione's unique sixth year at Hogwarts. Later that day, Dumbledore said that Fleur's wand had been revised and that they had destroyed the thing that Voldemort had been looking for. A dark wizard, who is still unknown, had created it but the Ministry is looking for him.

So, Hermione left Hogwarts with a female best friend and the best of boyfriends, proving that with friendship, anything can happen, because it makes it all possible, that first impressions aren't always correct, that with union, there is strength, and most important of all: True love does conquer all...

Now I've had the Time of my life

No, I've never felt like this before

Yes, I swear it's the truth

And I owe it all to you

'Cause I've had the time of my life

And I owe it all to you

I've been waiting for so long

Now I've finally found someone

To stand by me

We saw the writing on the wall

As we felt this magical

Fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes

There's no way we could disguise it

Secretly

So we take each other's hand

'Cause we seem to understand

The urgency

Just remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of

So I'll tell you something

It could be love because

I've had the time of my life

No I've never felt this way before

Yes I swear it's the truth

And I owe it all to you

With my body and soul

I want you more than you'll ever know

So we'll just let it go

Don't be afraid to lose control, no

Yes I know what's on your mind

When you say, "Stay with me tonight."

Just remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of

So I'll tell you something

This could be love because

I've had the time of my life

No I've never felt this way before

Yes I swear it's the truth

And I owe it all to you

"I love you Harry."

"I love you too 'Mione."

Never take friendship for granted; it's the greatest gift of all...
