I don't own Harry Potter or anything from the book…that's all Ms. Rowling's property…I only own this excellent plot!!!
Chapter 1: Almost Rape and a Sudden Arrival
"Ron please understand. I just don't feel the same way; you're like a brother to me. I'm sorry." Hermione said sadly.
She just couldn't understand why he was being so bloody difficult!! She had been talking with him for well over an hour trying to make him see that her feelings for him were no more than that of siblings. He kept insisting that she was just playing hard to get.
"I do understand. I understand that you're still playing hard to get. Don't worry; I know how much you want me. Well you can have me!" he said in what he tried to make a seductive tone but failed miserably.
Then all of a sudden she was pinned against the wall and his disgusting lips were on hers. He shoved his repulsive tongue into her mouth and took her struggling and pushing against his chest as a positive reaction. She couldn't help but to gag as he pushed his tongue further down her throat. His hands started to roam her body and go up into her shirt causing her to struggle more desperately.
He broke the kiss to gasp for air and she took the chance and screamed "HELP!!" at the top of her lungs before he cut her off by pulling her face back to his and ripping her shirt off. He was pulled away from her just as he had started to reach for her shorts by an unknown force that she was thankful for.
She looked up and saw Sirius, Remus, and Harry all in the room looking absolutely livid. She sank to the floor, her hands covering her face and shaking with sobs. To say she was shocked was an understatement. One could even go as far as to say she was traumatized. Ron was supposed to be one of her best friends and he just dealt her the ultimate betrayal.
Her loud sobs and half-dressed state attracted the attention of four people. Feeling a sudden chill, Hermione looked up and was surprised to find that she was no longer in Grimmauld Place but sitting by the Black Lake on Hogwarts grounds. Looking around she noticed three boys and a girl walking towards her looking concerned.
The boy that looked strangely like Harry and the red haired girl were holding hands. She looked at the other boys and noticed they looked suspiciously like a younger Sirius and Remus.
'Oh my word! I seem to have traveled back in time! Those are Harry's parents and Remus and Sirius!'
Hermione covered herself with her arms as best as she could and cowered in fear as the four approached her cautiously.
"Are you okay?" the boy she recognized as Sirius asked.
She flinched and cried harder when the three boys tried to come closer to her. She looked at them eyes wide with fear. The boys backed away concerned and confused. They looked at Lily silently asking her to try. She nodded and inched towards Hermione. The four breathed a sigh of relief when she visibly relaxed.
Lily sank down next to her and wrapped Sirius's cloak around her.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
"No I-I, he, I-" she stuttered but cut off sobbing. Lily immediately wrapped her arms around the emotional girl.
"What happened?!" she asked.
"He t-tried-d t-to r-r-rape m-m-me! He w-was s-su-supposed t-to b-b-be m-my
be-st fri-end!" she wailed. "Th-en m-my friends pu-lle-d him o-off of me a-and ne-xt th-thing I-I kn-know I-I'm here!!"
Lily gasped in shock and looked at the boys who looked positively livid. They may have just met the girl but they already felt protective of her, Sirius especially.
"Oh honey! Shhhh its okay. We're here for you. We're going to help you honey. Don't you worry." she soothed. "James go get Dumbledore and Madame Pomfrey."
James nodded his head and ran off towards the castle as fast as his legs would take him.
************
James returned ten minutes later with Professor Dumbledore and Madame Pomfrey in tow. Madame Pomfrey gasped at the state Hermione was in and immediately started to work on her.
"What happened here?" Professor Dumbledore asked with sadness in his eyes.
Hermione turned to look at Lily with wide eyes silently begging her to tell him. Lily nodded her head sympathetically and turned to look back at the headmaster.
"She told us that one of her friends tried to rape her but her other friends pulled him off of her and she somehow ended up here though she's not sure why, Professor." Lily explained.
"Oh my," Dumbledore murmured worriedly. "Well, Miss…"
"Hermione Granger, sir." Hermione supplied timidly.
"Yes. Miss Granger. You may attend our school if you wish?"
"If it's not any trouble sir."
"No trouble at all my dear girl. Now we will have to sort you." he replied kindly. "Accio Sorting Hat." He murmured and the hat flew into his open hand.
He placed the hat gently and carefully on her head.
'Well, well what do we have here Miss Granger? Ah a time traveler. You have endured very much in your time dear girl. Brave of you to trust people so soon. You are quite intelligent as well. Ravenclaw would suit you well but I can sense your bravery outweighs your smarts…GRYFFINDOR!!!!"
"Oh that's wonderful! We're going to be the best of friends!!" Lily squealed excitedly.
"Don't scare her off already Lils." James chuckled.
"It's okay," Hermione said quietly causing Lily to grin widely. "Um sir? Could I maybe, possibly get some clothes?"
"Of course, of course Miss Granger! Miss Evans, would you be so kind as to lend some clothing to Miss Granger until this Saturday when I will permit you to enter Hogsmeade to allow her to purchase her own supplies and clothing."
"Professor we will not allow them to go alone!" Sirius exclaimed.
"We have to go with them sir!" James demanded with Remus nodding his head vigorously.
"Boys," Dumbledore laughed heartily. "I was going to ask you to accompany the ladies."
"Oh," Remus blushed lightly and chuckled nervously. "Well thank you sir, we will."
"Very well. Now up to the common room for you." Dumbledore said.
"Yes sir," the five students chimed.
"Mia can you walk or would you like for one of the boys to carry you?" Lily asked standing and then helping Hermione up?
"I can walk." she assured.
The other students watched her cautiously as she walked a few steps. As she began to sway, Sirius immediately caught her and scooped her up into his strong arms bridal style.
"Well hello again beautiful," he practically purred winking suggestively at her.
Hermione blushed brightly and she felt her heart give a little flutter. It seemed her love for Sirius did not go away with the apparent time travel, not that she had expected it to. She had had a crush on him since her third year. At the time she had thought it was a childish crush that would fade after a few weeks but as the months went by she fell more and more for him. It was before her fourth year that she was completely and irrevocably in love with him. The only person who knew was Ginny and she was very supportive of her.
"I bet you say that to all the witches Mr…" Hermione said. Although it killed her to do so, she had to act like she didn't even know his name.
"Sirius, Sirius Black at your service milady. The boy with the glasses is my best mate and Miss Lily's beau, James Potter and the other bloke is our other best mate, Remus Lupin." Sirius explained. He couldn't help but flirt with this beautiful witch who appeared to have popped out of nowhere. If he ever got his hands on the bloke who tried to rape her, he knew he wouldn't be able to stop himself from killing him.
"Well, Mr. Black, it seems to me that you are a player and players are truly not my type." she giggled. It seemed like she couldn't help but be comfortable around these boys. She thought that she would never want another male to come near her again after what Ron tried to do to her but she felt strangely safe with Sirius, James and Remus. It felt good to be able to trust them.
"Oh no love, I am most certainly anything but a player." he replied huffing indignantly causing Remus and James to laugh loudly and Lily and Hermione to giggle. "Well I'm not!" he pouted.
"You just keep telling yourself that honey." she giggled patting his head in mock condolence.
