Facing Unexpected changes

Chapter 1 Farewell

" Hermione, were going to leave now, don't let your brother get into trouble , and don't let Matt stay past 4 am on Wednesday or he'll get in trouble with his mother, have fun and don't get yourself into trouble either. You know what to do incase of an emergency, Dafnies ( her one and only Aunt, who was also the only other witch in her family) number is on the fridge along with the number of the hotel your father and I are going to be staying at with our room number. Oh and Arron leave your sister alone, "

Hermiones mother yelled as she was coming down the stairs with a suit case in her hand Hermiones father close behind her. It was Monday night, and Hermione was sitting in the kitchen with her little brother Aaron and her boyfriend Ron

(It was her parents anniversary on Tuesday and Hermiones birthday on Wednesday, so her parents were going to be out to celebrate their anniversary, and their birthday present to Hermione was that they were going to leave Hermione and her little brother at the house by themselves and that she could have a slumber party where Ron and Harry could stay over for the night, well Ron was going to be there to, it really surprised her that her parents trusted her and Ron together every night for a week and weren't having anyone come over to look after them)

" We better go say buh-bye" Aaron said

" K lets go." Hermione said happily anticipating a week without her parents. The only problem was her little brother was going to be there the whole time too, maybe she could send him over to Daphne's for a few days especially on Wednesday or if they wanted to do anything like make out, Aaron might walk in on them, but it was also good that Aaron was going to be there because it was more than likely that Aaron would want to be with Hermione a lot and if Ron wanted to do anything she wasn't ready for, Aaron could be her excuse.

Hermione came out of her thoughts and fallowed Aaron and Ron into the Entryway

"We'll be back on Sunday." Her mother stated

" Have fun, and Ron, keep my little girl out of trouble" Hermiones father said in a mock serious voice

"Yes sir." Ron said trying to keep a straight face

Hermiones parents liked Ron, He seemed to be very responsible and trustworthy, especially compared to all of her other boyfriends who all for the exception of one had been muggles, and he was also the only one she'd been friends with first, and for almost six years at that.

With that her parents went out of the door, fallowed closely by the other three to say their last goodbyes, her mother still adding details.

"We'll call every night" her mother said

"No we won't" her father said ushering their mother to the car

"We'll call every other night, and definitely on your Birthday to wish you a happy birthday." Her mother stated as though no one could change her mind, and of course no one really could

"Alright " her father agreed

"Bye Mom, Dad, I love you guys" Hermione said as they got into the car

Aaron ran down the steps and gave both his patents a hug, then he Ran back to the porch and put his arms around Ron's right leg. Then their mother stood with the car door open looking pointedly at Hermione who was standing on the porch with Ron's arms around her waste, so she walked down to give both of her parents last hugs, fallowed by Ron and Aaron who was now holding Ron's hand. Ron shook her fathers hand and hugged her mother.

"Do I understand that you will be staying here for the rest of the summer holidays?" Hermione's father said

"Yes sir" Ron said looking cheerful

"And you'll be sleeping on the couch in Aaron's room, Yes?" her father asked with a grin on his face

"Yes sir, it's no as though Mione would let me sleep in her room anyway, now is it? " Ron said again looking just as happy

Hermiones parents laughed, probably more at how Ron had said it than at what he'd said

"Good man, we must be off, bye all, take good care of my kids now will you Ron?" Ron didn't say anything he just nodded, picked up Aaron, and put his arm protectively around Hermione

"love you all." Said her mother

"See you on Sunday" her father added

They stood on the porch watching Hermiones parents drive out of the drive away, waving, and then they went back into the house.

!^ ^^!

" Pooh" Aaron said

"What?" Ron said looking startled and putting him down hastily " does he need to........., he potty trained?"

"No and Yes" Hermione said trying not to laugh at the expression on his face "he wants to watch Pooh"

"I didn't ever think I'd ever say this, but what's Poo?" Ron said

" It's a kids show, but you can get it on videos too, it was my favorite show when I was little, it's about seven stuffed animals and the adventures they have with their friend Christopher Robin." Hermione said

"Oh" Ron said, "That's interesting?"

"You don't have to pretend to be interested it's a kids show," Hermione said

"Ya, ok, I know," he said looking slightly embarrassed

At that point Aaron walked over to Ron and tugged on his pants, which promptly fell to the floor, revealing blue and pink polka dot boxers. Ron Hastily pulled his pants back up, Hermione was laughing at him.

" Macncheez" Aaron said

"What?" Ron asked

" He wants Macaroni and Cheese" Hermione said

" Oh "

"Ronny make Macncheez"

"I don't know how," Ron said somewhat lamely,

"Have you ever used a microwave?" Hermione asked

"No" Ron answered looking confused

"Well then I'll just have to teach you how to use one now won't I? Go to the kitchen and I'll be there in a sec," she said with a mischievous smile

"Mione?" Ron said

" Go on I'll be there in a sec," She repeated smiling again as she watched Ron's face light up with a lustful grin and he disappeared into the kitchen.

" Do you wanna watch Pooh?'' She asked her little brother

" Yep, I wanna watch Pooh." He answered

"K, I'll put it on"

She picked Aaron up and carried him to the T.V. and put the movie on, then she went to join Ron in the Kitchen, for his "Class"
