A/N... I would like to give credit to the amazing author who is J.K. Rowling...I do not own the characters or any thing that is referred to in her books, but I do own the plot of this particular story and I hope that you will enjoy it.

Chapter 1:

Harry, Hermione, and Ron have just gotten off of the Hogwarts Express and are sitting in the Great Hall waiting for the sorting to begin. They are talking about how fun their summer at the Burrow was.

Harry said "Remember that Quidditch game where Ron flipped three times and actually got upright again without falling, which is a total surprise because he usually would have fallen off of his broom... the big goof."

As Harry says this both Ron and Hermione punch him and say, "He is not a goof." "I am not a goof."

Harry goes "Owe...Come on I was only messing with you."

"Oh ok whatever." Said Ron.

Pointing to the front of the Great Hall where the teachers sit Hermione says, "Oh, look Professor McGonagall is going to start the sorting!"

After the sorting is finished Dumbledore stood up and moved out from behind the table where had been sitting and said, "Now for our returning students I would like to say that I am looking forward to another excellent and exciting year with you, here at Hogwarts, and for our new students I am looking forward to the many excellent years that I am sure that are ahead of you and I. Also I would like to inform all students that the Forbidden Forest is off-limits and whoever goes in there will be punished. Our caretaker, Mr. Argus Filch, would like me to remind you that any objects that are inappropriate and dangerous can and will be confiscated. The confiscated items will not be returned until the end of the year. Now, let the feast begin" he sweeps his arm across the Great Hall. Food appears on top of the four house tables and the students start eating the roast chicken legs, the cranberry stuffing, pumpkin juice and more until there hearts content.

When they are done with dinner and dessert, Dumbledore stands and says, "No doubt that you are all full now, and tired from that wonderful meal prepared by our kitchen staff, I know I am,

Hermione whispers to Harry and Ron, "No way, more like slaves."

You may head up to your dormitories at this time, new years; the prefects will lead you to your dormitories. Your trunks and luggage have already been placed into your dormitories. I hope you will all have a good nights rest because we have a prompt 6:30 a.m. wakeup call every morning. Classes will start at 9:00 tomorrow morning."
There is a mad rush out of the Great Hall so Harry, Ron, and Hermione wait until the Hall cleared before they headed up to the portrait of the Fat Lady.

Hermione says "Well, I for one am going to get a good nights rest, my parents kept me up all night making sure that I was ready for school, and that I wasn't having second thoughts about going. Also they thought that it was a great time to talk about peer pressure, behaving myself, not getting into trouble, trying my best at everything, not doing drugs, not having unprotected sex, how they love me more than anything, and that I am a gorgeous person and to not let bullying get to me. They do this every year, I try to tell them that after I get to school I am going to eat, go to bed, and then I have an early start and I need my rest, but NO (sarcastically) they don't listen to me.

Ron says, "Well, I asked if you wanted to stay after you came to visit, but NO (sarcastically) you wanted to stay at your house the rest of the summer.

Hermione, getting pretty huffy, says "Come on can't a girl want to spend time with her parents before school for once!" They arrive at the Gryffindor Common Room entrance, and no one is there.

Ron goes "Bloody hell Hermione what's gotten into you...OH... is it that time of month again? I am so sorry that I just blew up at you honey."

Hermione says kindly "Oh baby, you don't have to be sorry. I am the one who should be sorry. You are right though, it is that time." Hermione moves in closer to Ron and they kiss passionately.

Harry, in utter shock, says, "Ok what is going on here? You two are going out and you didn't tell me!!"

Ron says "Hey, we didn't know how you would take it, so we just wanted to wait to tell you the good news when we got here and I could talk to you alone."
