Hermione woke up to her alarm playing her favourite song: Bad Day, by Dan Brown. She laughed as she thought of how ironic it was that the song was saying how someone had a bad day when she knew that this day was going to be one of the best days of her life. She was 17. It was her birthday and she was now "of age". She could do magic outside of school!
It was a few days before school was going to start so she decided to meet up with her friends at Diagon Alley. She chose her black hipster jeans and a white strappy top. She had changed just a bit over the summer. She wore makeup, but not too much, just a bit of eyeliner, mascara and a light pink lipgloss. She had also bought a curler, a straightener and a crimper so she changed her hair a lot. Today, it was going to be in ringlets. She went downstairs, told her parents she was going and went off.
She arrived in Diagon Alley and looked around. She thought she saw a bit of red hair but when she looked again, it was gone. Suddenly, a voice appeared next to her. "Well, well, well. If it isn't the mudblood," a voice droned in her ear. "Sod off Malfoy, you know you aren't wanted here." She retorted. "Ooo, feisty now, aren't we? You do know what I do with the feisty ones, don't you? Or do you want me to show you?" he whispered. "Ugh Malfoy, just leave me alone". She watched as he turned on his heel and walked off. He has grown at least 5 inches. And the smirk…..WAIT A SECOND! GROSS! I'm thinking of Malfoy in this way. But his hair, the blondeness…NO! NO! NO! HERMIONE JANE GRANGER YOU WILL NOT THINK OF HIM IN THAT WAY! Fine, ill do it when you aren't here. But im your conscience, im always here.
"Shit" she swore. Then, Ron Weasley, one of her best friends, started coming towards her. "Hermione! Wow, great to see you! How've you been? Oh, Harry is coming soon" She stared at him. He had grown taller too and his hair was longer. He was kinda cute. But not as cute as Malfoy…. Her conscience teased her. Shut up! "Hey Ron, havnt seen you in a long time. Im great." They embraced each other and talked until Harry came. "Hey 'Mione. Wait, this is Mione, isn't it Ron?" He stared at me, confused. "Im not too sure. I mean, Hermione Granger never wears makeup." Ron said. They were just teasing her.
"And have you seen Malfoy! Wow, what a hottie!" Ron exclaimed, but quickly put his hand over his mouth. "Oh my God. Ron, remember how we went to that café? The Orange Fold? Well, when you had that drink, I slipped a potion into it, you know, just for fun. I got it from Fred and George. They told me to give it to you. Wait, they mentioned something about your thoughts being said aloud!" said Harry. Hermione had a look of horror, disgust and amusement all on her face at the same time. This was awkward…
"Ron, is there something you wish to tell us?" Hermione asked. "Um, well.." Ron squeaked. "Oh come on Ron, your gay. So what?" Harry said. Just then, Malfoy waled past them. "Is my hearing gone or did I just hear that Ronald Weasley is gay?" Ron turned crimson but looked at Malfoy. Hermione could see drool coming off of his mouth. Yup, Ronald Barney Weasley was gay and in love with Malfoy. "So, scarface, you going out with mudblood?" Malfoy sneered. "No Malfoy, im not. We are just friends. But from the way you are looking at her, I think you wish you were going out with her" Harry said stiffly. "Pfft, as if I would waste my eyes and emotions on THAT piece of filth!" Malfoy smirked.
Hermione dragged Harry and Ron away from Malfoy before any of them created World War 3. Besides, it was her birthday. She didn't want it ruined by some measly little ferret. Not so measly any more though, eh Hermione! Stupid conscience. "Soooo, Hermione, what do you want to do for your birthday today?" Harry asked. "Well, a cup of coffee would be a good start" she smiled at them. They headed towards the Orange Fold. Just then, Ron shouted "Oh my god! Im wearing a g-string!" He closed his mouth, then opened it, doing the goldfish act. "Did I just say that out loud guys?" Hermione and Harry were too busy laughing to answer him. They laughed and ate and talked the whole day until Hermione had to get home. Her parents were making her special birthday dinner: Fries and Icecream, followed by drumsticks. Yes, her parents were DEFINITELY weird.
She thought about today. She had had a very interesting day. Disturbing and horrifying. She had found out that Ron was gay and liked none other than Draco Malfoy. She had found out that Ron was wearing a g-string. And she had gotten a crush on Draco Malfoy.
Boy, was this gonna be one scary year.
