Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, nor do I claim to. JKR is amazing and I wouldn't even dream of taking credit for her work!

A/N: This idea has most likely been used before, although I have never read any with this idea. I apologize if it seems as though I am copying someone else, and if it seems like I am, it is completely coincidental.

A Night in California

The Group

"Harry! Ginny! Ron!" Hermione called up the stairs of the Burrow.

They, along with Luna and Neville, were going to head to Muggle America for a night out. The boys had thought it would be nice if they kept their secret plans hidden from the girls to make it 'romantic'. Hermione was always one for punctuality, and they were at least three minutes behind schedule, causing her growing irritation.

"Calm down, 'Mione," Ron smiled as he bounded down the stairs to meet his girlfriend. Hermione spared him a smile, despite her slight bad mood. She really did love him.

"Where are Harry and Ginny?" she asked, looking up over his shoulder in search of her best friends. Ron snapped his head around to look at the stairs. His ears turned red.

"They were right behind me just a second ago…" He turned to run up the stairs, but Hermione's hand on his arm stopped him. "What?" he asked.

"I'm going to go meet Neville out front so he knows he came to the right place," Hermione said, moving towards the door. Ron looked completely torn.

He had no clue what he should do. Should he go upstairs and investigate what Harry and Ginny were doing, or should he escort Hermione out into the dark night?

"Well," Ron said. "I wouldn't want you to go outside all alone…"

Hermione smiled as his arm snaked its way around her shoulders. They opened the back door and went out into the night to meet Neville at the gate.

"Hey guys!" Neville called out to his friends. As they walked around the garden bend and into the front yard.

"Hey Neville," Ron greeted him.

"Where's Luna?" Hermione asked, looking around for the spacey blonde.

"Oh," Neville said, scratching the back of his head. "Well, she said she would find her own way here."

"Oh," Hermione said. She still couldn't understand Luna, even after several years of being her friend.

"Here she comes," Ron said, pointing towards the house. "How…?"

Neville shrugged his shoulders. He had no clue how his girlfriend had shown up coming from the house itself. "She couldn't have come by floo. Her place isn't connected to the network."

Luna wasn't alone. Hurrying along in her wake was a very dishevelled looking Harry and Ginny. As they approached, Ron nearly had a heart attack at the young couple's appearances.

"What were you doing?" he yelled at them. Harry's face flushed, but Ginny's face portrayed nothing but annoyance.

"Nothing, Ronald!" Ginny said to her brother in a stern voice that rivalled Hermione's.

"I found these two attached by the lips," Luna said in her usual, dreamy tone. She did not seem to be too horrified by seeing two of her best friends snogging in front of her.

"HA!" Ron said loudly, pointing a finger at each Harry and Ginny in turn.

"Oh," Ginny said in an ornery tone. "I guess we were doing something then."

"Shut up," Ron said very childishly. Hermione sighed.

"So are we going, then?" Hermione asked, twisting Ron's hand around to look at his watch.

"Yeah. See you there," Harry said. They all paired up and apparated side-along to their designated destination in America.

Just before Harry and Ginny disapparated, Harry pulled her in and captured her in a lingering kiss. When they broke apart, Ginny raised her eyebrow.

"Well, I know I wont be able to do that for a while, being around Ron and all," Harry said with an arrogant smirk on his face. Ginny smiled and kissed his nose affectionately.

"You're so cute," Ginny said, wrapping her arms around him.

"I know," he replied in a mock-conceited tone as he put his arms around her and disappeared with an almost inaudible pop.

"What took you so long?" Ron asked automatically as soon as Harry and Ginny appeared in front of them.

"I had to tie my shoelace," Harry replied with a laugh. Ron looked at him for a moment before turning and walking down the street. Ginny looked at Harry.

"You had to tie your shoelace?"

Harry blushed before he hooked arms with her and set off down the street after Ron, Hermione, Neville, and Luna.

They had come to California to get away from all of the obsessive stalkers that formed the Harry Potter fan club. They followed him everywhere, and it was hard to find time to spend with Ginny nowadays.

"So what are we going to do?" Hermione asked Ron.

"Well, we were planning on splitting up and doing our own things, then at 11:30, we will meet up at that--" he turned towards Harry.

"Movie theatre," Harry supplied.

"Yes. So, Neville, don't lose track of Luna, and Harry, don't you dare do anything inappropriate to my sister," Ron warned.

"I could say the same thing to you," Harry said, nodding his head towards Hermione.

"Right," Ron said with a blush. "Well, bye then."

After everyone said goodbye each other, they all broke apart to spend some quality time with their significant others.

A/N: Now, the next chapter will be how Neville and Luna spend their night, then the next will be Ron and Hermione, then it will be Harry and Ginny. After that, the last chapter or two will be about their crazy experience at the movie theatre on a certain July 14th at 11:30. (*hint*hint*) I wonder what could possibly be going on that night? Review, please!
