A/N: This is a prequel to His Sweater. But you don't necessarily need to read that one to read this one. I own nothing. Enjoy.

Hermione rolled over and stretched, it felt good to sleep in. It was the day after graduation and she and Harry were living with the Weasley's at the Burrow. She got out of bed and opened the curtains. "'Mione warn me…" Ginny grumbled, throwing her hand over her eyes and rolling over, "Too early…" She mumbled.

Hermione rolled her eyes and got dress, heading down to the kitchen. The only other person awake was Percy, he had recently moved back home due to the break up of him and his long term girlfriend, Penelope. "'Morning." Hermione beamed, grabbing the box of cereal and making herself a bowl.

"If you wait about twenty minutes I'm sure Mum will be down to cook some real breakfast." Percy said from the other side of his newspaper.

"I'm fine with cereal." Hermione shrugged, putting two scoops of sugar in her bowl and stirring the cream in.

"You don't use milk?" Percy had set down his newspaper and was sipping at his coffee

"I hate milk." Hermione scowled.

"Me too… it just--"

"Tastes disgusting." Hermione laughed.

"Yes well… I should be off to work." He stood up and walked to the fireplace, throwing in some Floo Powder, "See you later Hermione."

"See ya." Hermione picked up his discarded newspaper and started reading.

A couple minutes later Molly came downstairs, "Oh you're already up Dear?"

"I'm an early riser…" Hermione shrugged.

"Yes so is Percy, I never understood really, has he been down yet?" She asked over her shoulder, pulling ingredients from the refrigerator.

"He's already left for work." Hermione answered, setting down the newspaper, "What exactly happened between him and Penelope anyway?"

"Oh.. Who knows, Percy doesn't like to talk about it and I don't push the subject. I'm sure it had something to do with his workaholic tendencies."

"Oh he just needs some fun in his life." Hermione laughed, getting up and stretching, "Well I'm going to take a shower."

"Okay Dear don't be long, the boys should be up in a bit and I want you spending as much time outside as possible. The sunshine will be good for you." "Yes Ma'am." Hermione ran upstairs and into the bathroom. She turned on the hot water and let it steam up the mirror, "I think a bath sounds better." She mumbled to herself as she stripped off her nightgown. She put some bubbles in the tub and waited for it to fill up.

Just as she had eased down in the water there was a knock on the door, "Someone's in here." She grumbled.

"It's me." Ron's voice echoed through the door.

Hermione smiled and slipped further under the bubbles, "I'm in the bath!"

Ron opened the door and smirked, "I know."

"Ronald!" Hermione giggled. "I'm… naked…"

"As if I've never seen you naked." Ron rolled his eyes, "Mind if I join you?"

"Yes! Everyone's home… get out!" Hermione playfully threw some bubbles at him.

"Alright… alright. Don't be long." Ron winked and closed the door.

After her bath Hermione wrapped herself in a large fluffy towel and stepped out into the hall, running directly into a very solid object. She landed with a, "Hrmph."

"Oh… sorry… didn't see you there." Percy stood up and offered her a hand.

"I thought you went to work?" Hermione asked, standing up.

"Nope… well I did, they told me to take a personal day. Too much work is not good for you apparently." His eyes got big and he blushed, "I'll er… leave you to what you were doing then." He murmured, avoiding looking at her.

Hermione realized she was still in nothing but her towel and grabbed at it self consciously, "Oh… er… right." She ran off to Ginny's room to get dressed for the day. Ginny was still lying in bed, "Ginny! Get up, it's nearly ten o'clock."

"Ten at night? That's beating my record by two hours…" Ginny yawned.

"No silly, ten in the morning. Come on it's a beautiful day. Let's go sunbathe by the pond." Hermione pulled her swimsuit out of her trunk.

Ginny propped herself on one elbow and scowled, "Are you serious? You woke me up before noon…. To go lie in the sun…. which doesn't even come out for another two hours anyway."

Hermione laughed, "The sun is out right now silly."

"Not in my world." Ginny grunted, throwing a pillow over her face, "Go back to sleep!"

Hermione sighed, "You're going to sleep your life away." With that she went downstairs in her swimsuit and out the door to lie in the grass by the pond.

She heard a loud whistle and looked over to Ron starring at her, "You're drooling Love." She rolled her eyes.

Ron sat next to her and kissed her lightly on the lips, "Can you blame me?" Hermione laughed and closed her eyes. "What are you doing?"

"Just sunbathing, it's a beautiful day and all…"

She felt Ron lie down next to her and felt his breath on her neck, "Ronald…"

"Don't call me that, it makes me think I'm in trouble." Ron was nibbling on her ear.

Hermione sat up and pushed him away, "You are… I came out here to sunbathe and you are distracting me and blocking my sun. If you want to talk that's fine, but I don't want to fool around just now." Hermione lay back down with a thud, "Why don't you go bother Harry?"

"I imagine he'll be up in Ginny's room waking her up." Ron grumbled standing up, "At least someone's getting laid." He muttered under his breath as he walked away. A couple minutes later Hermione heard footsteps coming toward her, "I said no Ron…" She growled.

"I don't want to know..."

Hermione sat up and saw Percy standing over her, "Er… sorry thought you were Ron."

"Been bugging you?" Percy asked as he sat down.

"Mhm…" Hermione turned to lay on her stomach, "You know… I love him to death, but the bloody boy has the libido of a rabbit."

"I did not need that image in my head…" Percy groaned.

"Oh… sorry." Hermione giggled.

Percy looked down at her, "So… nice urm… strings? Can't really call it a bathing suit." He laughed.

"More than the girls back home wear at the beach." Hermione shrugged.

"Why are you out here all alone anyway?"

"Well Ginny didn't want to get up… but I suppose she and Harry are together now, and I told Ron to bugger off so… I'm alone." Hermione put her arm over her face to shield her eyes.

"Well I'll do something with you, my boss said I had to take the week off."

Hermione turned to him and grinned impishly, "Do those shorts double as swimming trunks?" She grabbed his arm and started dragging him across the lawn.

"Erm… probably… why?"

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Honestly… I thought you were bright!" She pushed him in the pond fully clothed, "We're going swimming!" She laughed.

"Hey!" Percy stalked to the edge of the water and grabbed her legs picking her up and throwing her over his shoulder, "No fair!"

She came up gasping for breath, "I wasn't ready prat!"

"Well neither was I!" Percy splashed her. She splashed him back and giggled.

"Erm… What's going on?"

Hermione stopped and looked up, "Oh! Ron! Come join us." She grabbed his arm and pulled him into the water as well.
