A/N: This is my first Harry Potter fic in a while. A looong while. Hope you like it, but here are a few things to keep in mind:

Pairings: HarryGinny, RonPansy, DracoHermione

Draco and Pansy are friends with the Gryffindors, and Ginny is in the same year as everyone else 7th.

ummm...it doesnt really coincide with the books, not really, at least. the only thing is that:

WONDERFUL J.K. ROWLING OWNS ALL CHARACTERS AND ANYTHING ELSE I MENTION THAT IS IN THE BOOKS AS WELL.

SUMMARY: Hermione's parents are going on a week-long vacation to Ireland, and they have agreed to let Hermione have her friends over for as long as they/she wants. On the first night, after a little swimming, and more-than-they-should-have Butterbeer, the teens get themselves into a little game of truth or dare...the teens forget about the truth part, and everything is a DARE.

i think i should warn you, it gets a little lemony, but not too bad. mostly just humor and kissing.

DARE

chapter 1: Preparations

"You promise to keep the house clean?"

"yes."

"are you sure?"

"YES, MUM! I'M SURE!"

"ok, hermione, dear. have fun with all your friends this week!"

"You and dad have fun, too, okay, mum? You guys really deserve this trip."

"Oh, honey, thank you. I know we are going to have lots of fun on this trip to Ireland. It's just so beautiful there!"

"Yes, i know, mum."

"well, goodbye then, hermione." Mr. Granger showed up, looking a little sweaty because he had just loaded the car with all of the luggage."

"Goodbye, Dad! Goodbye, Mum!" She hugged each of them, and they gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Enjoy your trip as much as possible, and relax! It's your vacation!" Hermione was standing on the doorstep, shouting to the taxi that was taking them away.

"Goodbye, darling!" the car drove away.

'Ugh, finally.' Hermione thought. 'There goes Mum, with all her questions, as usual. But i do love them dearly, and i hope they do have a wonderful time. I wish i could go. but i have a party to prepare for! well, not so much as a party, as a get together. oh, hell with that! we're teenagers! of course it's a party!'

Hermione took her hair out of a ponytail and shook her head. her best friends were coming for the whole week! oh, they were going to have so much FUN! I mean, the Granger house, which was more like a mansion, was really quite large! And hermione had begged her mom to let her have them over, and after she got all of her friends' report cards, and explained how responsible they all were, her mom agreed. Within minutes, hermione was planning the following week with many a list. She tried to tone it down a bit, her friends were always telling her how crazy she got with smartness and planning ahead 4 months! (They were being sarcastic. Pretty much.) But she wanted this week to be the best week of summer that they had. There were only 3 weeks before school started again, and it was there 7th and final year.

Hermione's lists included 'food' and 'activities' as the most important. As soon as she was done, she apparated to the wizarding world's supermarket, and proceeded to buy as much as possible, including a keg of butterbeer, incase they finished the ones at home.

A/N: How do you like it? More should come soon. Maybe tomorrow, but i'm not sure. School is starting soon, too, so don't expect an update every day! There might be a few days break in between chapters. PLEASE REVIEW! This is my first fic, as i said earlier, and i would love any sort of review! Not the biggest fan of flames, but constructive criticism is a-okay!
