Chapter 1
"Hermione, your breakfast is ready." My mum shouted from the kitchen down stairs. My eyes shot open and some butterflies started forming in the bottom of my stomach, I was going to the Burrow today. I would always stay there a few days before we were set to go to Hogwarts, it was easier. I was so excited! I swung my legs from my bed and put on my usual, skinny jeans and a plain top. I looked in the mirror and my hair was everywhere, I couldn't believe how my hair had gotten so frizzy from only a few hours sleep! I couldn't sleep properly because I was so excited to see Ron again! When I had finished brushing my frizzy hair, I ran downstairs, almost tripping on the last few steps.
"Good Morning!" I said with a huge smile on my face.
"Morning dear, I have made your favourite, pancakes and whipped cream. I hope you like it." My mother said, still cooking some breakfast for my father. I practically threw the whole thing down my throat I was that hungry!
"So are you all packed then, Hermione?" my dad asked me.
"How un-organised do you think I am dad!" I laughed.
"Maybe your friends would like to come here one day and stay for the weekend? Especially Ronald." My mother said, smiling.
"Mum, we're just friends. Like me and Harry. We're all just friends."
"Well your father and I were just friends once." My mother smiled.
I was eager to change the subject, but I couldn't think of anything to say so I just sat there awkwardly eating a second patch of pancakes.
"So what time did you tell them that you would be arriving?" my mother asked me, finally sitting down at the table.
"Around one o' clock. But I have to call them fist because Ron said that they were going to see his brother in the shop, just to see if they can grab some free 'pranks' for school." I said with a little laugh.
"Well its quarter to one now, so I think you should give them a ring." My dad said into the newspaper he was reading.
I made my way to the living room, where the closest phone was, and dialled the Wizard Code. I waited for about a minute for the little 'ding' to tell me when to say the person's name. "Ronald Weasley." I whispered into my phone.
Ring. Ring. Ring.
"Hello?"
"Hello? Who's this?"
"Ginny, is that you Hermione?"
"Oh hi Ginny, yeah it's me. I'm just calling to ask if it's okay if I come now."
"Yeah, sure! We got back from the shop ages ago so I'll see you in a minute. Bye!"
I hung up and said goodbye to my parents, my mother started crying for some strange reason.
"Have a nice time, Princess." My mother said with tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Mum, I've done this for the past six years, you don't have to cry" I laughed and gave her a hug.
"Bye dad, I'll see you both in July." I said as I stepped into the fireplace, grabbing some Floo Powder. I gave them one last wave goodbye and said very clearly, "The Burrow."
