NOTE: I know this is an overused plot but I decided to put my own spin on it. I'm obsessed with the plot altogether, the amount of reunion fics I've read is sad at this point. I've written up to three chapters of this fic so far so I'll try to post every three days or so. My grammer might not be the best so if anyone would like to beta please feel free to message me.

Tia and Oliver Granger

Coordinately Invites You To:

The Annual Granger Family Reunion

. . .

Location: Silver Abzu Hotel

. . .

Please RSVP Before Attending

. . .

Emma Granger stared at the invitation in her hand with slight irritation. It was not as if she distasted her husband's side of the family, no, far from it actually. She just loathed the ones sending out the invitation. Tia and Oliver Granger, Emma thought to herself, Was it not Dan's parents hosting this reunion? The reunion hasn't even started and they're already trying to control things. Such a disgraceful bunch.

Oliver Granger was Dan's older brother. He married Tia when they were in their early 20's but upon meeting them both, Emma never liked them. When she and Dan first met, Tia tried to convince him that she wasn't fit for their family due to being poor. Emma scoffed, Thankfully Dan has more common sense than the both of them, she thought.

It wasn't as if she came from a low-class family, far from it actually. However, since her family did not make as enough as the Granger's did, in both Tia and Oliver's eyes, she was deemed too poor. Thankfully, Richard and Abigail, Dan's parents knew better. They accepted her for who she was automatically claiming she was the right person for their youngest son after a few meetings from meeting her.

"Honey?" A voice called from behind Emma.

She turned around to see her husband Dan walking into the kitchen, glancing at the object in her hand. "Is something the matter?" Dan asked his wife, noting the irritation on her face.

Emma flushed, Dan was such a sweet, sweet man. He was beyond intelligent but one thing he could never pick up was part of his family's distain for her. She knew how big he was about family so she never told him of the harsh talks between some of his family and herself.

"Nothing honey," Emma started to say, she turned around slightly in her chair and handed him the invitation. "Look… Tia and Oliver sent us an invite to your family reunion." Dan took the invitation from her and looked it over.

"Should we go this time around then?" He asked his wife.

For the past couple of years, since their daughter started going to Hogwarts, every time they would receive an invitation they would always make up an excuse for not going. It wasn't as if they were avoiding being asked questions about their daughter's whereabouts but it just made things easier for them to not attend the reunions. Both sides of the family knew about Hermione going off to a boarding school during the school year but they all thought it was just some fancy private boarding school that she attended.

Hermione being gone for the school year was not the issue. No, the real issue was the fact that Hermione was never usually around. The Granger family reunions would usually occur during the summer time, yet Hermione would usually spend her summer vacation with a friend's family, the Weasley's.

Dan and Emma didn't mind that their daughter was often gone for the summer. When she was younger, they both knew how troubling and difficult it was for their daughter to make friends due to how intelligent she was. In more than one way, they considered the Weasley family a blessing for their daughter.

"Should we go this time around?" Dan repeated his question to his wife when she didn't answer the first time.

Emma looked upwards from her seat at him, she could tell he really wanted to see his family again after so long. Even though he tried to hide it, his body language said it all. He was excited and wanted to see his family members. She did not blame her husband in the slightest. They saw more of her side of the family than his. So she did the only thing she could do at this point: agree to go.

"Well, Hermione is coming home soon from school next week. We could always discuss it with her and let her know that this summer will be dedicated to family time." Emma said.

Dan smiled widely, his eyes twinkling with joy. "I can't wait! I'll call up Oli in a bit! I bet he won't believe me when I say we will go! This is going to be exciting! The Granger brothers together after so long! Oh-! Just wait until Al hears!"

Emma watched as her husband walked around with joy in his voice, talking about different family members and their reactions to them deciding to go. Even though his family did not like her, upon seeing the man she loved be so excited for a reunion, she knew it would all be worth it for him. Even with all the excitement surrounding her, Emma could not help but wonder how her daughter would react. Unfortunately, the distain of 'being poor' and the nasty remarks towards her background also was brought onto her daughter, Hermione.
