Childhood Living
A Harry/Hermione mix through the years
For a while now I've wanted to do a Harry/Hermione mix that outlined their relationship per book, and now that Deathly Hallows is done, I was finally able to complete it. Some of these songs could be applied to H/Hr's relationship in general, but I tried to match them up as best I could with the individual book it was meant to correspond with.
I'll warn you, this mix is slightly spoilery for Deathly Hallows and is intended to imply a romantic reltionship between Harry and Hermione. Please don't put down the ship cause I'm a H/Hr-shipper till the end, and I'll eat your head.
Enjoy the mix!

We're Going to be Friends - The White Stripes
http://www.sendspace.com/file/xwbuuu Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone
(click to enlarge)
And we don't notice any time pass
And we don't notice anything
We sit side by side in every class
Teacher thinks that I sound funny
But she likes the way you sing
_______________
Ah, the sweet innocence of First Year.

You've Got To Hide Your Love Away - The Beatles
http://www.sendspace.com/file/w14xdj Chamber of Secrets
Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say
Hey, you've got to hide your love away
_______________
With all the goings-on regarding the attack on Muggle-borns, everyone thinks Harry has something to do with it because he can speak Parseltongue. It doesn't help that Hermione gets Petrified, too.

Amsterdam - Coldplay
http://www.sendspace.com/file/g69rfb Prisoner of Azbakan
Come on, oh my star is fading
I swerve out of control
If I, If I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole
...
But time, is on your side
It's on your side, now
Not pushing you down
And all around
It's no cause for concern
_______________
Musing on the subject of time and how it must be used. Just picture the whole Time-Turner section for this.

Help! - Howie Day*
http://www.sendspace.com/file/8wfs3y*this one's in m4a format
Goblet of Fire
And now my life has changed in oh, so many ways
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like
I've never done before
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Won't you please, please help me
_______________
Harry would've been a goner in the Triwizard Tournament without Hermione to help him through it.
05.
I'll Stand By You - The Pretenders
http://www.sendspace.com/file/97tjus Order of the Phoenix
So, if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
But hey, what you've got to hide?
I get angry too
But I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
Don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cause even if you are wrong...
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
_______________
Hermione is the only person who could properly deal with CAPSLOCK!Harry, and despite the fact that very few of their classmates believed him that Voldemort was back, she (and Ron) stuck by his side.
06.
Unsaid - The Fray
http://www.sendspace.com/file/0p2hkt Half-Blood Prince
But suffice it to say
We're leaving things unsaid
We sing ourselves to sleep
Watching the day lie down instead
And we are leaving some things unsaid
And we are breathing deeper instead
_______________
H/Hr-ers regard HBP as the plague, but it actually isn't that bad. All the subtleties that we've always picked up are just even more discrete. So it goes without saying that overall, it's the unspoken moments in this book that keep the H/Hr flame glowing. A case in point: Slughorn's party where Harry notices that Hermione is distraught, pre-"canary scene."

Wild Horses - The Sundays
http://www.sendspace.com/file/oi7ci2 Deathly Hallows
Childhood living is easy to do
The things that you wanted, I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know who I am
You know I can't let you just slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them someday
_______________
The Trio were living on their own for half of this book, and thus they had to grow up fast in such dire circumstances as these. Hermione stayed with Harry even when Ron stormed off, and I think that's a testament to how strong their relationship is, whether it be romantic or platonic.
