Chapter 1: Missing Hermione |
A/N:
This story is actually an inspiration from a Hindi
movie, 'Kal Ho Naa Ho'. I just finished watching it
for the hundredth time on VCD and got inspired by
it. You guys should watch it. A very touching movie.
Though my story is not a carbon-copy of it, just the
basic idea is taken (though there will be certain
scenes I would copy, heheh!)… Also, please bear
with my grammar. I'm always terrible with them.
It has been two long years since he had heard from
his female friend, Hermione Granger. A girl he had
grown up with. A woman he had grown to love with.
That's where the problem lies.
He loves her. He, being the typical boy he was, hadn't
understood his feelings, not knowing he had missed
his chance. Now it was too late, for she had left
him. He had no idea where she is right now. He tried
sending owls, but all the owls he used would come
back to him with his letter; letting him know that
they could not locate her.
He still remembers the day he
last saw her…
..:: Flashback ::..
Hogwarts Express finally met
its stop at Platform 9¾. Tears were still running
down her puffed cheeks.
"Hermione, we will still
get in touch. There's no need to cry so much…"
Harry chuckled at his weeping friend, trying to lighten
her up. He was sorely mistaken, for she cried even
harder. None of her two friends understood, but they
decided to give themselves a group hug.
"Yeah, Mione. Harry's
right. You can't get rid of us that easily,"
Ron smiled cheekily.
Hermione finally stopped crying
and gazed at Ron with glazed eyes, hiccupping at the
same time. Ron was not sure what it was, but there
was something in her eyes that clicked him. Was that,
hope? Disappointment? Or hopelessness?
She placed a hand on his cheek
and smiled serenely, giving her a breath-taking look
Ron ever felt.
"I'm gonna miss you…"
she sniffed.
Again, Ron found himself starring
into her eyes.
"And you, Harry!"
her voice said again, leaving Ron off his trance out
of a sudden.
Harry smirked knowingly. "Don't
think we won't too."
She smiled again.
"Mya!"
She shifted her gaze to see
her parents waving behind her, along with her 9 year
old cousin, Aaron. She waved back, and then turned
to her friends again.
"I'm gonna miss you guys
terribly," giving them a final hug.
"We'll see you around,
Mione…" cooed Ron.
Hermione nodded and backed
away from them, waving a goodbye. Watching her leave,
Ron felt something inside him crumbled.
..:: End of Flashback ::..
He figured why his sister, Ginny and Harry frequently
told him that he's a git, because he was. By the time
everything was clear to him, it was too late.
He had figured out that Hermione
was keeping something from them all along. That explained
why she wept so horribly all through their journey
back to the platform. But till this day, he could
not figure it out.
He tried visiting her house, but
the owner of the house told him that the Grangers
moved out a long time ago.
He missed her terribly. He loves
her. He needs her. His siblings had tried introducing
him to a few girls, but he declined all of them. He
had vowed to himself that his heart can only be filled
by one person, Hermione. If only he had seen it sooner.
One thing for sure, he had lost her.
"Where are you, Mione?"
A/N: Aah!!
I hate my first chapter! All the first chapters of
my stories suck! Reason being, I'm never good at writing
the beginnings of a story.
A/N: I know it's pathetic of me to even start writing
this story but I'm sorry to say, I'm not continuing
this story anymore. It's official. Those of you who'd
watched 'Kal Ho Naa Ho' will know just how this story's
gonna end; with Hermione in Shahrukh's place, and
Ron in Preity's. |
